BLAKE MITCHELL SUSPENDED.

Don’t underestimate the Ragin’ Cajuns, Swindle. We may just suprise you. Probably not, but maybe.

And we prefer to just go by UL. If we’re going by full names on this site, then please refer to Louisiana State as LSU A&M at Baton Rouge. Asshole.

Spurried doesn’t call kids into his office anymore. He just tells em, “That shit’s on the website, click clack.”

i don’t know much about dancin
that’s why i’ve got this song
got suspended for Louisiana-Lafayette
cuz i guess i did somethin wrong

Are we inaugurating “Mullet Thursday” to fill the gap between “Moustache Wednesday” and “Bunda Friday”?

I always thought it was ULa-La?

Well, if it isn’t South Carolina’s answer to Joe Willie Namath.

In Tanneyhill’s defense, I am a fan since he convinced Gaines Adams to stick around for his senior season, he was at a party that got busted up, and he was having a beer. Supposedly, the cops pulled him out of a crowd to give him is MIP.

Conversely, Mitchell sucker punches a bouncer at Pavlov’s and runs.

Mitchell might also want to look into some Rogaine in the near future. That combover is looking bad enough today. Soon he will become the fair-haired Gene Keady.

Oh and by the way, players still have to pony up the $99.95 a year to get access to the site. OBC ain’t givin’ that shit away kids…click clack.

If we are inaugurating mullets, I nominate this:

Oh, and do these off the field troubles mean that this is not, in fact, the year of the chicken?

Smelley Cock jokes to begin in 9 days. Or less.

No worries cock faithful, youve still got Stephen Garcia…..er, wait…on second thought you are lion fucked.

RCR – I support the coming excellence of the Ragins if only b/c I swear my dad and I saw Arkansas and your Cajuns play every year in Little Rock for a solid 10 years (probably only 2 or 3 times, but it felt like more)

Nah, Garcia’s going to take a bird bath and redshirt.

oh sunshiiiiiiiiiiiiine!!!!

“What? He didn’t kill anybody and still had to miss a game? Not stretching, not practice, but a game??? That seems harsh.”

Brett Bielema

Did anyone check out OBC’s signatue line of Carolina clothing for sale at the Carolina shop? Priceless!! Did he have a signature clothing line when he was in FLA? I am certain he DID NOT have one in DC.

Did anyone check out HBC’s signatue line of Carolina clothing for sale at the Carolina shop? Priceless!! Did he have a signature clothing line when he was in FLA? I am certain he DID NOT have one in DC.

RCR – UL is in Monroe.

Sincerely, The Warhawks

Yeah, grown men wearing a football coach’s “signature” line of clothing. Think about that for a minute. What does that remind you of?

I guess you folks will have the best of both worlds around Labor Day, as you can wear your Spurrier clothes on Saturday and your Dale Jr whomever t-shirt and matching sweatpants on Sunday.

Yes, yes, orange overalls, blah blah blah. Those HBC polos will go smashingly with your black jorts.

To paraphrase the late, great, Lewis Grizzard, Gamecock fans can be tacky, quite frankly.

Try all they might, the only UL is in Kentucky.

The other two have initials.

So who will be starting the first game?

Glad to see Mitchell will have to work through his first game jitters at Sanford Stadium.

I look forward to watching him Roger Rabbit, Charlie Brown, & Hustle (…and maybe Electric Slide) his was out of harm’s way against the ’Dawgs.

Jerkwheat—we actually came close to beating the Hogs a few years ago. We’re very sneaky like that. Hell, in the early 90s, we beat Texas A&M. Sneaky sneaky….

Unhappy Monkey—that’s the most ridiculous statement I’ve ever heard in my life. Insanity.

Spurrier calls Blake a shitass. Mitchell demands to be named starter at UGA.

Vietnam, Cambodia, Colombia, Puerto Rico, Bahamas, Everglades. Bet I’ve soaked up more swamp than Elvis!

I hear tell that ULL has a pretty good offense; I’m starting to worry that this game will be interesting.

(#18: I know you already mentioned orange overalls, but still: Orange overalls.)

#15, I never thought I’d see OBC taking a page out of the Terry Bowden playbook.

Spurrier can’t even get www.spurrier.com?

Someone needs to go Click, Clack on Tom Spurrier’s door…

Chris Smelley will be starting the UL game and I wouldn’t be surprised if he started the UGA game as well.

RCR- No really, I’ve been there, says UL and everything.

I know y’all prefer to go by UL. I like to go by The All-Being, master of time, space and dimension, but the DMV won’t put it on my driver’s license.

I have been to Europe though.

as far as i’m concerned the university in lafayette is still “southwestern louisiana”. i fear change.

impirius—we should have a great running game, but our passing game is questionable at best right now. Another problem is that we run a hurry up offense, and in order to sneak away from one of the “big boys” with a win, we’ll need to control the clock. If we get stuffed a few times and keep running a hurry up, things could get bad, quick.

Billy in Baton Rouge: quit being a dick.

For the 2 of you out there that would enjoy reading this (Billy and LSUJoshua), here is a summary of the University of Louisiana. LSU A&M at BR for some reason doesn’t want us to be just UL.

Go to the following link and click on the UL tab in the far right. I realize that I’m opening myself up to a lot of jokes here, but whatever.

http://www.raginpagin.com/

Wow, a directional Louisiana threadjack.

RCR, all UL fans are open to ridicule, whether they’re flipping out about their name or not. As a Tiger fan in Lafayette, I use ‘UL,’ as to avoid the possibility some little old lady will shove a pencil in my eye and scream, “Are U Laf-ing now?!?”

By the way, the moons are aligning for a UL upset – they damn near pulled one off at USC two or three years ago. AND, last night Tyrell Fenroy ran for 230 yds and 3 touchdowns against USC on my NCAA 2008 dynasty to seal a two-touchdown upset victory. If EA says it could happen, it could happen.

Urban Meyer thinks this punishment is harsh

Ragin, you’re my boy, but seriously, the whole A&M thing is about the weakest response I’ve ever heard.

You can’t escape one inalienable fact. No matter where you go around this country and no matter who you talk to, ULL will always be ULL. LSU will always be LSU.

Biggus: It’s just like an Auburn vs Bama threadjack, only with less combined wins and more combined teeth.

Also, at least LSU is making a move in the Fulmer Cup:

http://www.wafb.com/Global/story.asp?S=6973688

Sure I’m too lazy to look it up, but who is La Tech then?

I’ve enjoyed the ULL/LSU theadjack. We should do this again sometime.

Steve Tanneyhill’s Mullet is an institution. Does it do personal appearances?

It gave me one of my favorite New Year’s Day memories when the crappy Cocks, with Tanneyhill, played a crappy West Virginia team in front of about 30,000 people in Joe Robbie Stadium, I think it was the Carquest Bowl? Why it was on New Year’s Day on CBS I’ll never know, but it was AWESOME.

I just searched google and I came up with a little more than nothing…
http://home.sprynet.com/~sims03/history/bowls/1995carquest.htm

Mitchell – and this thought comes in the straighest possible way – was a tough kid to look at. You kind of get the feeling that his football status is his saving grace, and if not for the pigskin he’d go from feast to famine with the lady gender.

OOC- A University with a healthy self image.

#38

gay.

In 2005, I drove into Columbia for the Gamecock opener. In the student newspaper, they had a special section profiling the team, Spurrier introductions, etc. On the front of the special section was Blake without his helmet on and ready to throw the ball. I thought to myself, “which editor did they dress up in pads for that pic…?” and then recoiled in horror when I realized that this was the new QB. Haven’t recovered since.

Ragin’ – I guess that’s what you guys do. You’re looking ahead to mullet jokes and click clacks when suddenly ULL catches you unaware to jack a thread from you. Here’s hoping the chickens are looking ahead to kegs hurled by the Baby Sex Cannon that first week.

i’m saving my Directional Michigan threadjack for a later date

RCR, I already jacked a thread with that noise. Your boy RP is involved.

I agree, it’s not UL, you forgot the S. Can’t be the University of Slow Learners without the S.

And I couldn’t agree more about LSU A&M. While you are tacking on our titles and such, you also have to add …and Law, …and Medical School, …and School of Veterinary Medicine, …and School of Dentistry, …and Occupational Therapy, …and Phy. So get cracking there boy.

I think University of Louisiana at Lafayette is about as long as that name will ever get.

Th emoons are not aligning, The 14-7 game was against a 5-6 Holtz team that ended the season on a four game losing streak, including a shellacking vby Clemson to close the season (to preempt Coop’s inevitable 2 cents worth), and really signaled the end of the Holtz tenure, though he managed to hold on for another year.

This one will be much closer to last season’s 45-6 thumping of Florida Atlantic.

Josh—exactly WHAT does RP have to do to get in trouble with Miles? It’s getting a bit ridiculous. Also, the Slow Learners joke was funny in 1988, but not so much now. Work on that.

i always thought slu in hammond was slow learners university anway.

And wtf is with all the “if my sources are correct” or “the info I know from inside” or “What isn’t publicly known yet, but I know” crap on a funny site like this?!? I expect that on a wouldyouliketocoachbama.com site, but Josh – if you got some good shit, tell us man! Fuck dat spider!

People, are you illiterate? The name is Joshua, not Josh. Until my hurt feelings are made whole, I will speak no more of unfounded allegations.

RCR, I guess you’re right about the Slow Learner thing. We can always move on to actual scores from games and all time records.

Tanneyhill kinda looks like Jaws (James Bond Jaws, not the fish), with a mullet.

#35. La Tech is in Ruston. Has no directional affiliation. Unfortunately not much football talent anymore either.

Joshy—scores and games are not the point. (Note: I know, they never are when you’re on the bad end of them.) Regardless, the fact that our football team struggles a good bit at times does not have anything to do with the Cajuns right to be known simply as Louisiana.

Also, our record in basketball is better than decent, and in baseball we’ve been much better than y’all for some time now. (And don’t bring the "We have 6 Nat’l Championships from the Skip Bertman era crap, either. 1) It’s too obvious of a come back; 2) Skip has managed to cripple your baseball team with his greed, hiring Turtle just to keep camp money in his pocket. It’s sad and was illegal, but that’s not the issue either.)

Also, OOC—RP’s alleged involvement is this, from what I hear: 4 guys show up to fight. They run away. They arrived in RP’s tahoe. The cops show up, just as the tahoe is leaving the parking lot. Xavier Carter, who has not been alleged to have been involved, is driving, b/c RP didn’t have the balls to return to the scene of the crime to get his own truck.

So RP is, once again, is just close enough to illegal activity to be involved, but just far enough away to not be arrested at the scene. That’s exactly what I want out of a quarterback. But Miles’ form of discipline makes Sly Croom and Urban Meyer look like wardens at Angola.

hey josh

if all time records are so important to you you may want to hit up google before you run smack at a bama fan.

Josh: Coming on like a little kid saying “I know something but I’m not going to tell” is very bad form. Next time just post the info or shut the fuck up.

RCR- But ULL is not UL, it’s ULL. Just like ULM is not UL, it’s ULM. ULL made the deal and agreed to be ULL. If they wanted to be UL, they should not have agreed to be ULL. LSU did not force USL to agree to become ULL. Don’t blame LSU, blame your own University.

Plus, why stop at Louisiana? Why not be University of the South? Opps, Sewanee owns that. How about University of America? Or University of the Western Hemisphere? Or University of Earth? Or U of LIfe, the Universe and Everything?

Nope, you’re ULL. Maybe they should make y’all read Orwell’s 1984 to help with the problems renaming creates.

ULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL boy,

Joshy, thanks. I know the chicks’ll dig it. That and what you just posted is almost right.

And no, I now no long have any idea what one has to do to get kicked off the team if you are even remotely important to future success.

It really pisses me off though.

-juuuuust got another email hold on….

Okay, sounds like some drunk guys wanted to be badass and take on a walk on and a star player. Star player didn’ t fight. Walk on called the cavalry. Shirley from What’s Happening (have you seen RP?) helped drive the cavalry. One of those was Odom, who proceeded to act a fool. This all happened a coupla weeks ago and has a big SUPPOSEDLY in front of it.

This version contradicts a bit the version RCR and I seem to have first heard. So, who knows.

I do know that The Hat will get to the bottom of this.

RCR, get my email from Orson, gotta ask you something.

Golly oc phil. I feel terrible that I might have upset you there broseph. Tell you what, whenever I have any info or anything neat to be posted, your concerns will be at the tippy top of that list okay buddy?

Just promise me you’ll reach under that skirt, untwist your panties and check post #56. Next time, just enjoy the Glamour or Cosmo you have at hand and try to wait the unbearable, interminable whole thirty five minutes it took to past that info.

And Gerry, I have been waiting on that one for a while. I’ve been whistling past the graveyard with you and the other Tiders for a little bit on that one.

God bless Blake Mitchell.

Unhappy Monkey: I like U of Life. I’ll see if I can get that done. I think that Pete Carroll may have the rights to that, though.

And all we want is to be able to refer to ourselves as Louisiana or UL, much like the U of Texas, U of North Carolina, U of Arkansas, etc. But Act 45 (the “LSU Rule”) stipulated that the city designation must be used in all official university business and has since grown far beyond its original legislative language, to regulate minute details such as font sizes to be used by the respective universities.

Additionally, the bill insisted that LSU was, and would remain, the “flagship university” of Louisiana. This was odd for a legislative act that had absolutely no bearing on LSU or the LSU System. Finally, that act changed the name of the Board of Trustees to the "University of Louisiana Board of Supervisors."

If that isn’t the most ass backwards legislation, I don’t know what is. It’s obvious the intent of the bill. But you can’t even admit to it. But, like most obnoxious LSU fans, you probably didn’t attend and graduate from LSU.

That is all. JoshUA—done.

Joshua, any chance of mass starter suspensions anytime between now and, lets’ just randomly say, next week?

And by supposedly, I guess I mean alledgedly or whatever.

So anyway….

Two football players and an unknown number of dudes get into a scrap at an apt complex. One rumor says it stopped and the butthurt football players called the revenge squad. The other one says it was a big group wantin’ to be badass on some football players. Either way, something in the neighborhood of 14 players in 4 vehicles show up (those numbers could be wrong, like Vince Young’s wunderlic wrong). One of those guys is Odom, a decent backup LB. Odom gets all Ultimate Warrior (criminal damage to property) on the apartment door the other party is now hiding behind. The apt. mgr. shows up and their requests to cease and desist are rewarded with an offer of a free ass whipping from Odom (simple assault). Odom also decides someone’s car needs to get some and lets the air out of tires, keys the passenger side and damages mirrors.

Cops show up and everyone bails. Later, the apt. mgr. points out a vehicle that is leaving the parking lot just then. It is stopped and track star, current United States badass at the 200m and ex-LSU student athelete (and Florida traitor, right Orson?) is driving. It’s RP’s car. He sent someone else to go get his car since he didn’t need to get caught up in the mess.

That’s the story so far.

worst. threadjack. ever.

Sounds like those fans who put a little ‘t’ in front of their university aren’t the only ones with an inferiority complex.

1. Bible Thumpers have the WORSTsites. Jebus is lauging his ass off.

But I have the worst of everything else.

i thought all they wanted to be was University of Southwestern Louisiana… er… Southwestern Louisiana Industrial Institute… um … Southwestern Louisiana Institute… ahh…. Southwestern Louisiana Institute.. or perhaps University of Southwestern Louisiana… AH yes University of Louisiana but then the courts said no… how about we all just go down to the bulldog and play some pool.

ass backwards legislation? in louisiana? i find that a little hard to believe rjr.

Speaking of Angola, the Rodeo effin rocks. How does Louisiana get off hosting an event like that and not allow alcohol on premises?

In any event ,it was too, much fun. Kind of like a ULM v. ULL game… a couple hundred guys with nothing to lose and nothing to gain, but they will do anything for one day in the sun.

Kleph,

The bulldog is still open?

RCR,

Do you remember the "LSU delenda est " bumper stickers?

Kleph nice Bulldog reference.
To Ragin Cajun,
The Bulldog is most certainly still open. Best place in Lafayette to get your drunk on. Nice mixture of young co-eds and…well…30-something guys with drinking problems.

No RCR, this obnoxious fan attended and graduated LSU.

The problem for ULL, as stated above, is it is NOT UL. Why would USL agree to be ULL if it wanted to be UL? No matter what legislation you claim thwarted USL, no one but USL decided to be ULL.

Why does it matter to ULL so much? Is it less of school if it is ULL. Is it a better school if it is UL. You don’t see UCLA bitching. It reminds me of the chiropractors who are professionally/personally offended if you call them Mister instead of Doctor. You don’t see the same reaction from M.D.’s.

ow! tigernacho, that struck a little bit too close to home.

Growing up in central PA my high school played Altoona every year so I got to watch Taneyhill up close in football and basketball. He was the cockiest SOB I ever saw.

I can’t believe I just read through 72 posts mostly dealing with schools most of the posters can’t even find on their respective Louisiana highway maps.

FYI

The University of Louisiana is now called Tulane University… and originally started as the Medical College of Louisiana.

Legend has it when Huey Long was shot he demanded a Tulane trained doctor becuase his opinion of LSU docs was so low…he got a Tulane doc but still died two days after being shot.

More trivia: The first Baton Rouge home of LSU was in the quarters of the Institute for the Deaf, Dumb, and Blind…joke here somewhere…

Is Taneyhill still coaching 8-man high school football, Coop? I met Taneyhill in my apartment in 93 (my junior year). My roommate and I called a girl we knew over for beers one night. She brought Taneyhill with her. He was 2nd or 3rd string at the time and was more humble and appreciative to be invited over for beers than arrogant.

Professor Gundlach,

More trivia.

The first campus of what is now LSU was located in Pineville before the civil war.

Do you see that hair? Do you see?

I will never forgive the state of Louisiana for jacking the only Steve Taneyhill thread at EDSBS. Have some respect; Steve Taneyhill is a man among boys and a BAMF.

Unhappy Monkey, if it’s not that big of a deal, then what does it matter to you? Why did the Legislature go through so much trouble to block it? Why did a bill that had nothing to do with LSU have to include language stating that LSU is the flagship school of the state? I feel sorry for you more than anything, Monkey. So worried about little ole us…

And Kleph, the Bulldog is still great. But downtown Lafayette has grown and looks great now, too. The women are beautiful, and they all seem to have a perfect morally casual attitude.

and all still batshit insane too, i bet.

RCR – I’m not worried about ULL, so there is no need to feel sorry for me on that account, on others… maybe. You brought LSU into this on your first post, uninstigated. I have always liked ULL and Lafayette, and I have read and enjoyed some of your posts in the past, including head butt stories in bars (which I am not personally unfamiliar with). I also admire the cajun hotstick story.

I thought you might have some insight in what seems to be UL’s onesided issue with LSU. I already know about the legislative/historical “struggle” ULL has “endured”, so you haven’t added anything new there.

You still have not answered why USL agreed to be ULL when it wanted to be UL?

The fact that USL agreed to be ULL, then immediately demanded, and continues to demand that it be acknowledged as THE UNIVERSITY OF LOUISIANA, shows that the legislature was correct in seeing the need to state the obvious to all but ULL, i.e. LSU was, and would remain, the "flagship university" of Louisiana.

The reason that the University agreed to the name change was that the president of the University wanted the name change to be part of his legacy. Not to blast Dr. Authement he has done many great things for the University. But as an alumnus I would have rather we stayed USL or became the University of Louisiana and not the University of Louisiana Lafayette.

I agree, I would have stayed USL over ULL any day. But you know why they did that.

What USL should have done was drop the western and become Univ. of Southern Louisiana, ala USCw.

Such is life. I’ve had enough internets fighting for the week. And Monkey—I’m guessing we know each other if I’ve head butted you in the past….sorry about that…

I promise that from here on out, I will leave internets fighting on instate squabbles to the folks at Auburn and Bama.

And now…back to work.
