the fighting receeding landmasses!!!

FIFY

[CharlieK]

So if i misspell more frequently, will I start to fit in here??

You do seem to want to pretty bad, with the post per minute act.

Where is Joe Lissard on the depth chart now? Strong arm and accurate in High School. I'm guessing mobility is his issue at the college level.

Use the clarifier...It's the law.

brokeback has new gameday t-shirts??

Well, there you have it. They were all well-educated and trained by very fine law schools.

If they found no basis for appeal, then I'd say there probably wasn't one.

The matter should be settled. Use the clarifier...It's the law.

You can explain away lazy logic if you want to, side bar actions present an expose'.

The Constitution clearly stated "Powers Not Vested. Powers of management over public institutions of postsecondary education not specifically vested by this Section in the Board of Regents are reserved to ... the Board of Trustees..."

The judge tried to say and in fact got away with saying that Powers of management over public institutions of postsecondary education not specifically vested by this Section in the Board of Regents REVERT to the Legislature.

A cursory look of the Constitution would have been self explanatory. All naming rights should have been in the hands of the Board of Trustees.

Someone in the Legislature realized how much power actually rested in the Board of Trustees hands and under clock of darkness made sure that naming rights over public institutions of postsecondary education became specifically vested in the Board of Regents so that they wouldn't automatically be reserved to the Board of Trustees.

That's a fantastic idea!

[cajun goat]

The difference between the two fan bases is pretty simple.

McNeese fans are amused by U-S-L fans, we're not envious of them. That's the main difference.

Well, that and the fact that McNeese fans don't suffer from the same delusions of relevance that U-S-L fans suffer from. We're more concerned with the product on the field than we are with how many unsuspecting media outlets we can con into callling us something that we're not, or with wordsmithing our way around the intent of the legislature and the agreements we've made.

No, McNeese fans don't envy you.

We like to laugh at you and we definitely like to beat you, but envy never enters the picture.

The overwhelming sentiment that U-S-L fans get from McNeese fans is pretty basic: It's called pity.

You just proved Jay's point in his article.

Oh the horrors! Somebody believes the Legislature actually has the power to enact laws and make decisions!

As you point out, McNeese was renamed in 1970 by the legislature. Perhaps the judge was just relying on precedent

[FormerPokeCenter]

Yes, yes, I know.....the McNeese name change in 1970 was just a ploy to pre-emptively screw over U-S-L.

We're pretty crafty like that!

Like you said, that fell under the 1921 Constitution.

You know, the one that required a 2/3 vote to become a stand alone institution.
