    i'd be worried if that was our actual nickname...who knows what the ncaa will come up with next.

    But I don't think Tigers is in any jeopardy...and the ncaa can't do a damn thing about what the fans yell to each other!

    a group of african american citizens in the lafayette area want UL to change their name from "Ragin' Cajuns" because, quote "not everyone who lives in this area is cajun"... wtf?

    Most states, rivers and lakes named after Indian tribes or words.

    Iowa (tribe)
    Hawkeye (the guy in The Last Of The Mohicans)

    We're screwed.

    I would have rather them stay the Bulldogs. Off topic but jsut more USL where do we fit in stuff. On of the reasons they went to the Ragin Cajuns was for local fare. Now they don't want local and or shafting ULM in the process. But all this is just another USL thread and it really doesn't matter. Come on September 3.

    On topic I believe the NCAA should be awarded the Mike & Mike "Just shut up" award.

    Oh well---good luck----I personally don't think you will be able to get much support for "the mofo's" or the "UL bitches." "Homies" won't do either.
