He's not meaning get hammered and throw beer bottles at Bama fans as they walk down the strip.
I don't know these are LSU fans we're talking about. They try to turn over the opposing team's buses and throw golf balls at Lee Corso on good days. I hope there will be plenty of security in BDS and around Tuscaloosa.

No, I took it as though he meant that beating Alabama badly would be the act of a rude guest. I seriously doubt that the governor of Lousiana is encouraging travelers from Lousiana to be rude to people in Alabama.
That's exactly what he meant. Unfortunately, a few people are trying to spin this and turn it into a big deal.

Some folks take things too literally. Gov. Jindal isn't encouraging anyone to go to Alabama and act like hoodlums. He's just saying LSU is going to be "rude" by beating Bama. Sheesh! Some of y'all really need to relax.

I would politley like to disagree. LSU fans have been known for years to take a lose very badly. They have thrown things and quiet literally chased people to the state line when they lose. Is the gov. saying that, I don't know. Maybe he should have choosen his words a little bit better. What I do know is, that fan base is VERY rowdy.

Smack talk is never intended to be interpreted fairly or with a generous benefit of the doubt. Even the one dishing out the smack...Jindal...is fishing for a little fun with a disrespectful response, to see what kind of response they can provoke. That's the point of trash talk. When one side lays down and makes excuses for the smack talker...he didn't mean it that way,etc...in my opinion that just throws cold water on both sides' fun. Jindal's smack talk was tongue in cheek, and so was my response. For example: "rude guests my foot. We'll make those Corndogs learn to be polite when they are in Tuscaloosa, and by golly they will also learn to like it, whether they want to or not. :smile:

Disagree all you like. There are no worse losers (or winners for that matter) in the SEC than UGA. LSU can't hold a candle to them, in my book.

I don't know what the hell you people are talking about. I always consult the opinions of politicians when I wager on football games.

Relax? How can we relax when it's about something so important? You know this is football!! [Heavy on the sarcasm here]

It comes as no surprise that the Governor of Louisiana is encouraging the team of the primary university in his state.
It is surprising though that so many people get so bent out of shape over something so meaningless. I say we should be rude hosts and send them home crying in their gumbo. :biggrin2:

However, for the most part, they do know the difference between a noun and a verb.

And God forbid!!! "Rowdy" fans in the SEC. :biggrin:
Glad to here. But, when I was in LA, it was very difficult to understand what people where saying (at least the ones I tried to talk to). I thought I was in a third world country.
