That's funny!

While we fight this, we need to no longer call them ULM at all.

What do you think boomer? You did good with LTUR... What do you think? ULAMOAN? What should we demand the conference and ESPN call them?

LA-Moan....

That's funny!

Very funny! And just might work!

....".......ok my take would be ....because they do the la laf ........we just go with the Lamon......it is not what they want and looks stupid and is factual and will ____ them off!!!!!!!o

But please, please keep us all updated on how much progress you're making on the name issue.

Quit fighting Hammer on this. It's ignorant to believe everyone in our fan base should have a perfectly packaged similar response to this ESPN name mauling. The announcers are the ones rambling through these alternate name choices, by the way. The ___ clown that called us Lafayette the entire halftime show isn't following the script put down by ESPN management and Karl Benson either. We are football fans. They expect us to have a sack.

Where should we focus our efforts? T-Joe. But, we should also hit every angle and raise the temperature in the room. Let Hammer do his thing and you do yours. Good cop, bad cop.

And, in every war, there's a General Patton and a Jane Fonda. Patton uses a tank to do his negotiating. Jane uses apologies. By the way, you were hot in Barbarella!

Looks like the squeaking got some grease. Announcer on TSUSM - Gast broadcast was reading the on-screen graphic of the remaining SBC broadcast schedule. When he got to the last one which said "UL-Monroe at UL-Lafayette" he hesitated noticeably from the pace he had been reading and then finally said "UL Monroe at the Ragin Cajuns"

Good old Karl and the Sun Belt Conference...Together we rise God, I hope we're not with this bunch much longer.

No other University in the Country is going through this...no one. There is NO flagship University in the University of Nevada System....University of Nevada at Las Vegas has branded itself as UNLV for decades....everyone accepts this....the University of Nevada at Reno about a decade ago decided to brand itself Athletically as the Nevada Wolf pack...perfectly acceptable to everyone.....when you read or hear in the Nevada Media about anything concerning academics at the University it is always referred to as Nevada-Reno....about a decade ago, LA-Mon decided that it wanted to brand itself as Louisiana in Athletics...no one gave a s*** and it failed miserably....now we step up to the plate and officially decide to brand ourselves as the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns and a cat 5 **** storm ensues...why...because they are scared S***less and jealous as hell.....It seems that it is fine for UL to bend over and grab its ankles once again and let the powers that be in Monroe run over us.....but oh no...don't fight...we might upset someone.....enough.....time to fight for what is ours....
