LA Tech Smack Talk

C'mon, Coach. Give the little doggy a break. After he ____s his sister and beats his wife he doesn't have much else to do in North Bossier.

I didn't kill our last mascot. An idiot vet tech did...

You also don't play in Tech's football games... but you don't mind saying "we" in that context.

I'm going to make a post that I know will be very unpopular with a lot of people on this board but I'm going to do it anyway. I have always loved the passion that so many people in this community have for this University. It's even more commendable when you look at what our fan base has been put thru by the past administration. We have put up with a lot of horrible years of football and still managed to have a fan base who were loyal when they shouldn't have been. When guys like Jerry Baldwin are your head coach and a 3-4 win season is viewed "as progress", times are tough. We then had administrations who have decided to change the name of our university several times as well as our mascot. On top of that, there has been a certain Louisiana institution that has blocked or overturned our attempt to reference our University by simply "University of Louisiana".

So we get past most of these hurdles and Hud gets hired. The RCAF gets started. NO Bowls are accepted. And the ball is finally rolling down hill. Unprecedented donations are coming in, our stadium and facilities are getting major facelifts and our football record has been very respectable the last 3 years.

Even with all of these perks we had a pitiful showing last weekend. We got our ___ whipped by LT last weekend and it wasn't even a game. From the opening kickoff they put it to us like they meant business. We were outcoached, out smarted and for damn sure out played. It was over after the first half but our team didn't even know it. There was trash talk before the game from both sides fans. Some in good spirit and some a little too personal.

What I have a problem with is the handful of people on here that can't just let it go and admit LT got the best of us. Why do we have to turn this into a "we're still better than you" argument? How old are you? Some of you act like you're still in middle school arguing over a game in PE. LT fans deserve the right to talk trash because here's a novel concept: "THEIR TEAM BACKED IT UP." If you don't like it then don't talk trash to them or help HUD get our team better prepared before our next rematch. It's a game and some of you people are acting like it's a life or death situation. A game that is played by 20 year old kids who's generation has been taught that playing sports is the easy way out versus getting a solid education and good job afterwards. As a fan I'm most proud that we have guys who go to class, graduate and are prepared for LIFE versus some game that a miniscule amount of guys are able to make a living doing. Some of you ought to get of your high horse and see how petty you are being.

Good points.

1) I don't do it for the LTU folks. Lord knows, most of 'em are ineducable. I do it for our folks.

2) I want our people to remember, constantly, that sports serves the larger mission of the university.

3) And despite our disappointments in sports, and despite the lethal cuts the state is inflicting up on us, we are moving forward, very fast, in our larger mission.

Also,

4) It's just fun to pick on LTU. They are so full of themselves, and to paraphrase Churchill, "They are a modest school with much to be modest about." They have succeeded in accomplishing what they most wanted, to become an L-State mini-me.

Good football, forgettable university.

Good points.

He wrote good points, but he wasn't referring to you at the end. He was referring to a handful of people. I never said that Tech didn't prove they had a better football team this year. I just don't think we have a player talent disparity. We are grossly under coached against good opponents. And Tech, unfortunately for us, has returned this year to a "good opponent" in football. All the other smack matters not. Let that stuff run it's course. I care about facts. And the fact is, we need to step up our coaching in football. The other 100 items to compare UL and Tech... please keep us informed, Fun. You know way more than any of us on those details... and that includes every poster from Tech.

There are weekly luncheon/dinner meetings in Shreveport, Ruston, and Monroe. I don't know the attendance.

Gas station bathrooms don't count son.

You come on our board to talk ____ on a fluke game when you come from a ____hole town and a crap school that will never be anything. Hell your school only still exists because of Huey Long political favors kiss off.

That is a ridiculous and ignorant post.

[stodgdog]

I'm just glad North Texas is gonna skull drag these ___s.

Maybe next year

That is a ridiculous and ignorant post.

What's strange is that without provocation from a Cajuns fan, we read this kind of complete disrespect for our city, people and university on the Tech forum, every time UL gets mentioned. Go back and read what BlueDawg wrote on our forum prior to our game with Tech. He was almost your only representative up until game week. Some of his posts got a few people on here extremely ____ed off. If we posted in threads on BB&B, and your moderator left them up for all to read, we'd see equally nasty posts from Tech people.
