I'm going to try to reply to this quickly and rationaly before this turns into a thread for the Flame Pit.
It probably helps that I'm not from Louisiana and I don't live there now. So I don't have to get beat down with all the LSU talk all the time. This means I don't have to care what they do. And I don't much care if a Tech student wants to have a second favorite school to cheer for. But all this talk about "know your role" and "good for the state" is what makes the hard-core Tech fans bristle.
