Dude - it's not anger - its disbelief that you actually believe the crap you type.
You're friggin troll plain and simple.

I am about as big a college football fan as anyone, but I had never heard of either team's win bar until this thread. Some tradition you've got there.
Here then...educate yourself
"Unknown to many Tiger fans, the LSU football team still runs onto the field under the same crossbar that stood as part of the north end zone goalpost in Tiger Stadium as early as 1955. It had long been a tradition that the LSU football team enter the field by running under the goalpost when the new "T-style" goalposts came into vogue. By virtue of tradition, the old "H-style" posts stood on the field of Death Valley until they were finally removed in 1984. Part of the crossbar, however, was kept and mounted above the door of the Tiger Den through which the Tigers run onto the field each game. In 1993, in celebration of the centennial of LSU football, the "H-style" goalposts were returned to the end zones of Tiger Stadium. Today, Tiger Stadium is one of only three college stadiums in the nation who still use the "H-style" crossbar. Doak Campbell Stadium at Florida State and Martin Stadium at Washington State are the other two."

At least we gave you an answer as to why we had the shirts printed. You clearly don't like the answer, but we have one. I asked and am still waiting on the answer to my question about where your "win bar" came from.

Unknown. Reference from lesmiles.net. That's some famous tradition you got there. No wonder you and tigerwoody are so pissed off on the Internet.

Well, since our players are so strong - many of them bench pressing more than 900 lbs, we felt that just an average board with "WIN" painted on and nailed to the wall wouldn't hold up. We needed titanium. So we have a titanium bar with "WIN" painted on it to remind our team of their strength, and their desire to win.
^^^^^^^^^^ That answer right there is almost as full of shite as the answer about taking the lead in the 4th quarter against Bama.
See what I did there?

I might be the biggest idiot the world has ever known, but I am not stupid enough to believe that a shirt that says "Take the lead" has anything to do with taking the lead in the 4th quarter of a football game. The goal of every team is to have the lead in the 4th quarter. Don't be silly.
That is not the way I heard the motivation behind the shirt. I really don't have the time to dig around LSUsportsnet for the proof, but I agree with you.
quote:This is what I heard also and I agree with you. Though I might add it had to do with LAST year when you were the defending BCS NC. I didn't like the idea but, hey, if the team buys into it, well done.
The goal there is clearly suggesting that LSU needs to take the lead back in the SEC West/SEC as a whole.
quote:I really don't give a shite if any team puts up a WIN bar. I was only responding to the talk about the t-shirts. There are pockets of envy in every fan base, including LSU and Bama. It's college football. Schools copy each other; re: UF and UA play that same damned tune after first downs; other schools play Iron Man ad nauseum. Thankfully no one copies fricking Rocky Top. Now if we can just get your school to turn down the dude with the "R-O-L-L-T-I-D-E Roll Tide Roll" microphoned cheer.....
I'll also add that I honestly don't have a single problem with that... until someone starts a thread talking about Alabama wanting to be like LSU because of a mother focking "WIN" bar.

Who gives a rats-arse about a damn "win" bar. Send Mal Moore an email and tell him your HS education deduced that Alabama copied some top-secret LSU tradition form the 50's and therefore should win the game on Saturday.
Hows that for an answer Troll?

WTF have I said to suggest to someone that I am mad about this whole situation? Or a Troll? You guys are the touchiest fans i have ever seen. It's ok if you copied our shite...im flattered...i guess. I will not be sending Mal any letters. And if you really want to get into an education argument I'll be happy to take you up on that.

That's what I said. All I'm doing is discussing the accusations.
