2009 UL Baseball Schedule...No LA Tech

_ Unfortunately, that's the EXACT attitude lsua&mc@br and toolame take toward US. _

Unfortunately when you are dealing with an a**whole on the other end of the phone, the action was justified! The action has everything to do with attitude, theirs!

_ Unfortunately, that's the EXACT attitude lsua&mc@br and toolame take toward US. _

Not the same in this case, Jack. Tech took the first step by making various excuses over the past few years for not playing us in football. Then they state that they are too "elite" to play anyone in our conference. The I-bowl snub and their efforts to ensure the opponent would nto be from the Belt was the last straw. This action is just an attempt to accomodate their desire to not associate with us since they deem us unworthy.

Well They got what they wanted right?

One time... at a seemingly swanky restaurant... I got what "I wanted"... and it gave me food poisoning.

I'll give you two situations, and I'll ask which one would make more of a negative recruiting impact... Nebraska losing 3 out of 4 to UL in baseball, or Tulane losing 2 out of 3 to UL in baseball?

The answer is Tulane's recruiting efforts would be hindered, while Nebraska's will not change. That is the reason they don't want to schedule us. They don't have to. Apparently they have plenty of money, and a perrenial top 50 school in baseball right down the road doesn't serve them...

On your second point, I really don't think we go head to head with Tulamie in recruiting in very many cases. On your first point, the proximity of the programs and the fan interest ought to count for something. The same can be said, for example, of people like Ole Miss and Miss St. playing USM "home and home" in all sports and on many more occasions.

You and T are RIGHT!! What was I thinking??

_ I like it. If they don't want to "lower" themselves for us in football, then they don't get us in any sport. If that is indeed the reason why we aren't playing them.

I think we should start putting our foot down (in baseball) in regards to LSU and Tulane. No more 1 game at the Box or 1 game in BR and one in NOLA. Only home and home. If we can get Nebraska to come down for a 4 game series, we should be able to get LSU and Tulane at the Tigue as well. _

THANKS! I agree!

Well if ULM won't play them in baseball and UL won't --that takes 4 games away from their schedule----I think this really hurts their RPI and not to mention the problem in scheduling in state games ---good for those aholes!!!!!

Amen brother... Trouble is Robe seems intent on rebuilding the relationship with a&m@br.... even to the point of accepting blame for the series ending... I love Robe... real man crush... but he is WRONG on this one... I'd agree to a 2 for 1.. Play three games with two in br... butthey MUST agree on coming here or JUST SAY NO

Same goes for Tulame. I have to disagree with you on the 2 for 1 though. Should be 1 and 1, otherwise Fem.
