We are stricken with the same plague.

It's more like competition between brothers. You never want to lose to your brother, but you love him just the same.
The attendance isn't where I would like it. There is just too much to do in Nashville and we are plagued here with Vol fans. Most people I talk to root for Belmont, but they don't make the effort to go to many games because they are too involved with UT, Vandy, or even the Predators.
A competition against a sissy little brother who whines, borrows crap and breaks it, uses all of the hot water, blames you for things he did, and ultimately acts self-righteously. So yeah, it is like a competition between brothers.

The uglier brother too!

RE: I hate DLU
I am quickly losing respect for Belmonts ability to hate.
Although I do agree with the "self righteous" comment.

Maybe I wasn't clear. I hate them with great passion. I was just trying to hijack the analogy.

RE: I hate DLU
DadofTwins loves him some good Lipscomb hate.
Finally, after years of being the classy, stand-up, underrated good guy, we get to be the villain.
<burnsfingers>Excellent.</burnsfingers>
I can't wait to see how creative y'all can be in your smack. As always, as the bully you get the first swing.
I only wish more Lipscomb people would come around to see it. After years of being the punchline team in a punchline conference, it'll be nice to have somebody to point at and laugh.
Bringeth it on.

I have and always will hate DLU. There is nothing about them that I like. For the record, moderator can we please kick Bruin 2002 and Bruin 2014 off for their lack of loyalty. No one should ever defend their rival.

Haha. Ok, maybe i'm not making this clear. I HATE losing to Lipscomb, and I love beating them more that anything. I am one of the most loyal Belmont fans you'll find. When I found out that a friend of the family was considering going to Lipscomb, I almost passed out.
All i'm trying to say is, that I don't have an inherent hatred for the people that attend Lipscomb. Although, to make it clear, I would never attend nor would I want anyone I know to attend Lipscomb over Belmont. What made all you guys so bitter anyway? Well, that's my last attempt at trying to explain myself, say what you will.
