See Boomers post....you may not be old enough to remember those days of ULALA

They can call us whatever they want. Y’all worried about the wrong thing.

Whatever establishes the Louisiana name!

LA is giving up on UL. And we should never give up on UL, because ____ them.

Almost any name, short of the full blown designation is a nickname that cannot be legitimatly objected to.

Some things, are legal some things are not.

Some things will get distinction, some things will not.

Some things will be used by outside entities, some things will not.

Best Practices

Everyday Verbal: UL or Louisiana

Written Athletics: LOUISIANA

Written Academics: LOUISIANA

Media Ticker: LA (they will not use UL)

I like. CBS on there ticker it was L’siana guess because the most they can fit on there is 6 letters. LA would be better.

I like the LA! Really wish we would move towards it

Hate New York City
It's cold and it's damp
And all the people dressed like monkeys
Let's leave Chicago to the Eskimos
That town's a little bit too rugged
For you and me you bad girl
Rollin' down the Imperial Highway
With a big nasty redhead at my side
Santa Ana winds blowing hot from the north
And we as born to ride
Roll down the window, put down the top
Crank up the Beach Boys, baby
Don't let the music stop
We're gonna ride it till
We just can't ride it no more
From the South Bay to the Valley
From the West Side to the East Side
Everybody's very happy
'Cause the sun is shining all the time
Looks like another perfect day
I love L.A. (we love it)
I love L.A. (we love it)
We love it
Look at that mountain
Look at those trees
Look at that bum over there, man
He's down on his knees
Look at these women
There ain't nothing like 'em nowhere
Century Boulevard (we love it)
Victory Boulevard (we love it)
Santa Monica Boulevard (we love it)
Sixth Street (we love it, we love it)
We love L.A.
I love L.A. (we love it)
I love L.A. (we love it)
I love L.A. (we love it)

Excellent post!

Our city's namesake established a tradition of changing (or adding to) official colors:

"It was Lafayette who argued for the addition of a white stripe to “nationalize” the design and include all citizens"
"On July 17, 1789, Louis XVI came to Paris to recognize the new National Guard, sporting the blue and red cockade, to which the Commander of the Guard, Marquis de Lafayette, it appears, had added white."
