. . . wow, JAB is not Vic . . .

For what it is worth: Here's my opinion in as short a response as I can give:
There are a couple hundred of "Die Hard Cajun Fans" (I consider myself one of them - and have been one for over 40 years) who LOVE CAJUN ATHLETICS -of course Football being the "primary love." We have watched (at least me) for over 40 years as other similarly situated current G5 programs have been born ( or moved up from Div 1AA or II), bloomed, prospered, and simply passed us by (USF, UCF, JMU, Troy, App St, UTSA, LIBERTY (For Christ's sake - pun intended), etc.

We are envious and jealous and want to know WHY NOT US.

We come to RP to vent and complain - and praise and celebrate when appropriate.

WE ALL WANT UL TO BE THE NEXT BOISE ST or UCF!

With almost EVERY post that is critical of the “UL institution” Cajun Vic does the following:
-Gas Lights and does so in such a condescending, sanctimonious way that immediately puts the RP poster on the defensive. He then continues to poke the eye of the poster in the same manner. It appears he thinks he is the UL Orion of all things and does so in such an egoist way that combined with all of these negative traits, he has become the most disliked person on this board.

And when he is called out, he gets butt hurt and accuses others of the EXACT SAME BEHAVIOR HE INSTIGATED.

Don’t get me wrong, being a contrarian is not a bad thing (i.e, the Managers of the Fidelity Contrarian Fund). But to do so – in what appears to be the only reason to do so is for the “fun of it” – in response to EVERY critical post - is exhausting. (i.e, "Maggard has to do what MH says," "No money" (but other G5 schools without the UL wealth base can do it), “Not CBM's fault” (although his coaching has led to – at best- mediocrity in a Mid Major program that has tons of potential), “Not CMD's fault” (one of my favorite UL players and position coaches of all time - but clearly not ready for a G5 head coaching job at this moment) etc.

So here is the expected Cajun Vic response to my post:
I don’t know what I am talking about
I guess no one can give a counter point
I only attack when attacked first.
Only I or the “little bird” knows the truth, I am too stupid to understand
Etc.

ALL these are egoist, hypocritical responses from what certainly appears on this forum a pretentious, gas lighting, condescending, sanctimonious, egoist – who appears to be able to dish it out regularly but cannot take it – is what has led to this.

But you have all heard this before….

I said it once before, JAB is not Vic.

You also muddied the waters when we all knew he was caviar and ordinary fan. If JAB isn’t Vic, he’s one degree of separation.

I am slow but not that slow, JAB andVic know each other (just a hunch) but do not agree on a slew of issues.

The others you mention were in unison

ps that is just a feeling on them knowing each other, I have nothing tangible to go on for that. But there are more than a few posts where they came down on opposite sides of the fence.

Guys, this is your annual reminder to read Vic’s posts in the voice of Mayor Humdinger from Paw Patrol. It makes way more sense that way!

. . . did I ever say you instigated me . . .

You insinuated that we came after you. See your quote here below.

hey RR boys . . . here is how I started it . . . very professional and low keyed . . . but I have never received a heartfelt response, only attacks by you guys . . . so the thread has evolved into what it has . . . I challenge you to sit down and view your last podcast and give an intellectually response to the above and anything else you have seen in this thread . . .

Again, see the quote below.

. . . pot meet kettle . . . in all seriousness, how many fans do you believe you have turned away from Louisiana sports with negative and toxic takes on RP and RR . . . how many fans have you acquired for Louisiana with that take . . . do you really believe that the “preach the suck” theme that the RR boys have been on for some time now does more to attract new fans or solidifies in potential new fans that Louisiana sucks so why bother . . . and it’s not just the RR guys, RP posters have generally been so high on the suck of the last couple years it’s a wonder that anyone shows up to any Cajuns events and that anyone donates to Cajun athletic causes . . . let us know . . .

Definitely not " very professional and low keyed"

"Preach the suck"......seriously?

. . . you can’t really say with an honest bone in your body that Levi Lewis was treated fairly here . . . and you have just put out 4 hours of complete negativity and show up here with your holier than thow attitude . . . I hope you have your cap on backwards right now . . .

Where it all began. If you ever go to my post history, you will clearly see that I have never instigated this type of rhetoric. Ever.

My kids are watching the new movie right now. I’m literally doubled over laughing while reading this thread.

“Ahhh, those Ragin Review boys are ruining my fun, ahhh!!!!”

“Ahhh, time to go sign up for another screen name, ahhhhh!!!!”

Vehemently disagree with you on the first part of that sentence. Ragin Pagin and listening to local sports radio during college helped develop the love I have for UL athletics. It was the constant exposure. Now RP is a daily habit of mine.

Same here. Started my RaginPagin account while attending UL and it was a major factor to me becoming a Cajun Fan.

. . . awe, cry me a river . . . but each of you have refused to answer whether or not your “preaching the suck” creates new fans, encourages fans to move on or just further exacerbates the current level of fan apathy we are currently experiencing here at Louisiana . . . explain all the good which is coming to Louisiana from that narrative . . .
