But then again, I guess it's who sits next to whom on the church pew that determines their "real fandom". Not the team, not the program, not the players, not the coaches.
    I didn't call you out then and I apologize if I didn't defend you then. No one should have called you out then and you should not call anyone out now.

    There I defended you.

    I appreciate that ten years after the fact. But I think you're missing my main point. And if you understood my point, you would also understand my motivation for doing what I did. My point is that when we made those plans & I paid for that trip, I had zero thought that oh snap, my team which hasn't been in a bowl game for over 40 years is going to be in their first bowl game that I can attend on the same day we leave port. So let me not make this reservation. I was in a spot I had zero control over. And yet I can still remember the mixture of pride watching Cajun fans up & down the streets of the city & wanting to be with them mixed with the sick feeling that I was sailing away at one of the glorious times after so many struggles.

    And I am here TODAY to testify that any one who is that kind of passionate fan & refuses to go to that game this Saturday because of those mandates will regret it the rest of their lives. I can guarantee it because I can still remember how I felt that Saturday afternoon & evening when the TV reception went out on the drive where Brett Baer kicked the winning filed goal.

    SO there you go. I could care a less who harangued me about not going. I was grateful for the very few people who understood my plight, but they still had a good laugh at my expense which I don't begrudge. But the feelings I had all that day & night & the rest of the cruise made that whole experience not nearly as good as it would have been. And I'm warning those people TODAY, don't let your foolish arrogance & your pride stand in the way of your sharing in the glory, or you will regret it years & years from now. If anyone knows, I do.

    I think you do care, or you would not have brought it up.

    I do care. And I know that most of the jack legs who have gotten their panties knotted over "Latoya the destoya" care as well, at least I hope they do. I have no doubt you care & want to be there. And I have no doubt that you would be there save the reasons you can't be there mandates, or no mandates. But the people who aren't going for that reason will regret it as long as they will remember. I have no doubt you will regret it & you can't be there. It's not a good feeling.

    Maybe missing the championship game people would regret.... probably not a bowl where we were 6-6 the last time we got invited.


    Hopefully we sell enough tickets to where we get invited to play jacksonville state in 2 years

    That is the statement of a casual week fan with no real passion for their team.
    Do you understand that every game UL wins in a row is now history? There aren't many teams in college football history to win 13 games in a row. To do it in a bowl game that could potentially put UL in the top ten at the end of the season is history. Maybe you don't care for history because of who history is being made against. But you can't always choose who, or where you make it. Making history is what counts.

    1. UL will not be in the top 10 if they beat a 7 win Marshall

    2. 13 straight and we are playing a 4th place CUSA team . Nola bowl tie in is garbage.

    3. Winning an outright championship is the only history I care about.

    I agree with the writter from West Virginia, Maggard should have held out for a better opponent in NoLA or anywhere else. Of course, anywhere else, unless its a 3 hour drive is a fan killer for UL. If what the guy is writting is true. And it probably is as he kicked Buckleys butt in the piece.
