I fly both, but that statement is largely accurate.

I'm not sure I understand. Is it supposed to be some sort of slight to refer to LSU by its geography relative to USL?

Without getting into some long discussion, to UL fans y’all are just another school. I don’t follow LSU and have no interest in them. I’m a fan of my school, and to us, y’all are simply The School Across the Basin.

The creation of an alternate nickname (with pejorative intentions) implies the very opposite of being "just another school."

ETA: Especially when it's just co-opting the way some other schools refer to their actual rivals.

We can say the same with TSAB, by saying we should know our place, and posting things like this shows the opposite.

Can you rephrase that in a way that makes any sense whatsoever?

That's not true at all.

Us? You got a mouse in your pocket? I have literally never heard that statement before. And I've lived my whole life in Lafayette, got my degree from USL, have a grandson who graduated from UL Lafayette, and have followed both the Cajuns and the Tigers since the 70s.

Most UL fans are also LSU fans, despite the vocal minority who seem to hate LSU, then pretend they don't care when called on it. My wife has a name for guys like you, yappy dogs,

Yes

but to only have the Acadiana flag on your uniform and no Louisiana state flag


No. This is cool, and makes sense. It's a directional school that represents that area and seemingly leans into it other than the UL thing.

Plus, people mostly like that flag because it just looks cool.

Okay? This is just an example

By posting this, TSAB is trying to dunk on Louisiana by saying:

• “Can’t forget about the extra L,” which is clearly a slight at the UL (Louisiana) reference.
• “Don’t forget who’s in charge.”
• “We matter more, you’re beneath us.”

This is an official LSU Softball post.

Y’all are clearly taking a shot at the “Louisiana” name, which shows it bothers TSAB more than you want to admit.

I personally do not care i think its great!! You ask for an explanation .

Ah, so you're just deflecting. Got it.

Also, we do matter more and you are beneath us.

You go out of your way to call LSU by a name literally no one else uses. You care very much. When called out on the absurdity of your claim that you don't care, instead of actually trying to defend your position, you deflect to show something LSU does.

You're not only too stupid to understand that you're stupid, you're also terrible to interact with. Go back to your hovel in Duson and stop bothering us here.

What i was afraid of. My last response

You asked for an explanation, so I gave you one. That’s not “deflecting,” that’s literally answering your question.

And the “we matter more, you’re beneath us” line just proves the point. If Louisiana didn’t get under TSAB’s skin, y’all wouldn’t be making graphics, throwing jabs, and celebrating an “extra L” like it’s some grand statement. That’s not how you treat someone who’s beneath you that’s how you treat someone you’re clearly bothered by.

And none of this has anything to do with your claim that you made up a dumb nickname to prove how much YOU don't care.

That's why it's deflecting, you fricking retard.

Why insist on being called Louisiana? ULM has just as much right to be called Louisiana as ULL does. It's dumb and smacks of an inferiority-complex. Being known as the Cajuns is cooler and more authentic.

What am I doing? I said the last post I made would be my last post!

Funny how UL using “Louisiana” offends you more than it affects you. That’s not our inferiority complex that’s your’s.

Is it true that LSU baseball players didn’t have the sportsmanship or decency to shake hands after the game? Why be so offended?

Personally, I don't think LSU should play at ULL in any sport. If they act like jackass', why should we give them a payday where for a few days they don't have to sell land to keep their school running?

If they want to play LSU in anything, let them come to BR.

I knew this was their world series when skinny legs (#9) flipped his bat in the first inning - for getting a walk - like he had just won the game on a Grand Slam.
