Or does it just make you a delusional little snot that makes you think you are better than everyone because what your family before you accomplished. Not all but a lot of Tulane fans talk down to others and brag about the price of their tuition. They say the UL is for people who can't get into lsu. Maybe some people better themselves the best way they can. Maybe some don't have daddy's money to go to school for 8 years and get a general studies degree. Maybe some college kids still live at home and work to help the family. Not everyone is born with a silver spoon in their butt. It just disgusts me when people compare their self worth with bank accounts. Comment like the mansion comment make me sick. There are actual adults who think like this. The direction this country is heading I feel sorry for some of these people.

Born n raised in Idaho, middle class there which is lower elsewhere. Paying my way through Tulane on my own. Took me 5, not 8 to finish my undergrad and a masters, in neuroscience not general studies.



So your gross generalization not only offends me, it speaks to the highest of judgemental hypocrisy. The cozy mansion was not only a joke but a backhand at our lazy upper class fans who could now give a damn.

Really, so when you began posting on this site and bragging about your current income, that wasn't arrogant? Didn't you invite that judgement with such comments? Just saying, who is the hypocrite complaining about being labeled?

Wow, this thread's gone off track big time! If ya'll don't mind I'd like to bring it back in with this observation:

Until today's bowls (Rose & Fiesta) ya'll played the best bowl game any fan could want.

Tulane fans-thanks for a great experience in my first Jags road game. I pulled for you at a game in Baton Rouge way back in the 70's. (Mom is an LSU fan)

UL-thanks for everything you do for the Belt, you guys are amazing. (The rest of Mom's family is from Lafayette-Go Cajuns!)

Of course I have to mention that in our first real year of big boy football my Jags, well, you know.....

aaand still stayed home after the regular season was over. Welcome to big boy football. We need strong members to offset some of the potential newcomers.

Z,

You have no idea how happy I am that my Jags are finally in the discussion.
We WILL be a great football addition to the Belt and the future is bright.

Ya'll are kinda like Troy to me, a team I have respected for so long it's a amazing that we are even on the same field with you.

Other than that, I hate you when we play you

Happy new year

And my simple BS from South allows me to live on the water in Gulf Breeze proper...what's your point?

I attended the Chick fil A bowl and they announced around 65k at the game which is completely bogus. The lower bowl was sold out, the verizon level was around 80% full, and the upper deck was well under half full. Something about the GA Dome and exaggerating attendance numbers. Hate it that it will pass the NOLA bowl in attendance.

UL and Tulane put a Real crowd of Real fans in the freaking Superdome for a great game and a national audience!

Silly child, you have no clue at all...

BTW, this geek doesn't change my appreciation for the Tulane fans I met at the dome. Would love to have a home and home series with you guys.

I just wish our home wasn't Ladd.

What are you smoking? Someone came on here saying I touted my salary which never happened because im poor.

Sorry, I missed the context and thought you were giving my SunBelt brothers a hard time.

I denounce myself.

Still want a home and home with Tulane, the Superdome doesn't smell as bad as Ladd and the concessions are worlds better.

I have no idea how this turned into " the bash JDTulane thread" But leave him be. He's not been over here trolling or anything.

JD,let's try and be honest here for a change. You didn't mention your salary, you did suggest that you have a high income because of your degree and current career. I can find your post and paste it here for everyone to see if I must?
