Dan McDonald calling us Louisiana-Lafayette

[Hammer58]

The SBC under Benson gave us an opportunity to grow a pair, instead we hyphened. The SBC will not call us Louisiana because that is NOT what we wanted to be called. ESPN is not the SBC network. No doubt you have your views on this, I do not agree. SBC Network will call us everything but UL or Louisiana. Dan needs to protect his family, he is not a friggin millionaire doing this for fun. Neither would virtually everybody on this board who claim they are nutted up.

But isn't it odd that we can be "Lafayetted" to death by SunBelt announcers (not Dan) and the conference doesn't seem to take action there? No doubt our admin screwed the pooch in that naming fiasco but Benson and the conference staff are all too willing accomplices.

Totally agree Hammer, just saying Dan is getting way too much blame for T-Jo being being de-nutted by Tabby and Bruno.

Benson loves the way this played out.

Agree about Dan, though I would like to see him let a ?Louisiana and Ul "slip" every now and then. If Karl complains he can just give the Blutarsky explanation"You ____ed up, you trusted me."

He might be getting way too much, but he does deserve some. He is another finger that could help make the media fist which says what you guys want it to. Or he could be the middle finger that flips off those who don't want to respect a school which will be a national seed in the two major college spring sports. How many mid major programs in the history of mid major programs can make that boast? Dan knows what's right. Whether he chooses to do it is another story.

He chooses income over non income. Geez

Like the program makers who put the softball team's names under our baseball team's programs? If this conference fired someone for insubordination, or incompetence every time they screwed up, there would be no one at the gate to collect tickets, or call balls & strikes. So find another argument which will hold a little water please.

That's what I said.

Jonesboro Louisiana.

One other thing to consider is Dan's wife and Dan own McD Media and Dan is pretty much the face of the company.

I'm sure one of the reasons he is stricter than he needs to be is to protect his contracts.

[CajunEXPRESS]

This is important to Benson, and Bruno, and thus insubordination will not be tolerated. F?<[king up the programs is not important to anyone.

So the only thing that matters is what UL's athletic program is labeled on TV? Not the programs, not the media guide, not the officiating, not the continual fishing of FCS wanna bes to keep your conference in existence? Just what UL's athletic teams are refered to it the only thing on the SBC agenda? So that's why Robe got suspended for 4 games? He didn't accidentally contact the ump. He took issue with home base ump calling us Louisiana Lafayette.
