re: LSU fans - tDecline of a once proud program

The LSU open date before the BAMA game was 10-29-16 and Florida had a conference game with Georgia that weekend. Your whole response makes no sense

The press reported that Fla vs Ga scheduled for Oct. 29, was to be moved to the previous weekend, Oct. 21 (both had open date) to clear the way for Fla vs LSU in Gainesville on Oct. 29. Fla and Ga were reported to have agreed but Aliva, apparently trying to force a free home game, refused to consider using the open date before Alabama to play Florida. If the press reports were true, and had that solution been used, NO SCHOOLs would have lost a game.

This is just one reason, right or wrong, many people believed LSU did not try to solve the problem in good faith, but instead tried to use the hurricane issue to gain an advantage. Another was the unprecedented attack through press conferences and interviews on the Florida athetic program position... denigration, mocking are only a few words to describe Aliva and LSU's actions. Well... even if Florida was also acting in self interest ... whatever ... to see LSU fans STILL on here acting outraged and entitled and denigrating Florida after the overt actions of their own Athletic Director is disgusting.

I appreciate the position of LSU at that time, thinking they were competing for the SEC west title. And I do not excuse the SEC office, though I'm not sure how much actual power they had to force a compromise. But, maybe you ought to look honestly at how the rest of the conference saw LSU's role in this issue. It is one reason other school's fan bases were pretty pleased at the outcome of the game ... even schools with no love for Florida.

Metry, you do know people are "snickering" at your grammar and use of the English language don't you? I appreciate your passion, but really...
