if your son and his teammate cried b/c of a week 13 nfl game, then by "athlete" you must mean male cheerleader and by "teammate" you must mean boyfriend.

sorry for being a jerk but man that just sounds weird.

go skins!!

No. My son and his teammate are athletes at UNO. The the demented chancellor of the school decided he is going to try to rip the school down from D-I to D-III. This means all of these kids would lose the scholarsips they have worked for for years. This came out two weeks ago. It has been a very bad time for this kids who spent 8-9 years training to get a scholarship only to have it tried to be stripped by this asshole. These are 18 year old kids who love the Saints and have been through hell. It has been a release.

It has been hell. The Saints season has only helped. I am sorry for sharing ... but this is why they cried. And why I did myself.

Anyone that what to help by raising hell with the administration feel free to PM me.

Not a jerk, man. Just didn't know the whole story.

I'm with you Guido. I live in N.O. and know how much the Saints mean to this town and community.
I'm a born and raised Skins fan, and adopted Saints fan/ season ticket holder. I know what you are saying about how you and your son feel. Congrats today, and welcome to the Warpath.
How did you find this site anyway?

I love going out and learning about the opponents from their perspective. Of course, it is fun to give a little back and forth. But, The "other" forum would not activate my account for the last two years. So, I searched more and found this one. My gain, their loss. This is an excellent site!

YES, IT IS! Welcome.
By the way, I watched the game in a room full of Saints fans, with my Cooley jersey, talking smack the whole time! It was great.. But the inevitable came, which I was not too upset about, because the Skins get a better draft pick and the Saints retain the trump on home field advantage... Who Dat?! ALMOST DA SKINS!! LOL Thats What I told my people here, and they all agree.

I'm a huge sports fan, always support and attend local sports. Tulane, LSU, Saints, Hornets now. (Used to be Skins, Caps, ODU, VT, and Tides when I lived in VA) I am familiar with the situation and will send an e-mail. NO PROBLEM. I thought that last year a local buisness man gave UNO an endowment to support their athletic program?

A true fan left several million to UNO, Tulane , LSU an Oklahoma when he passed. The problem is that our (UNO's) Chancellor, An academic prick, decided that money would be ideal to pay back to the general fund that he thinks athletics should owe.

Stay tuned to the news and raise hell.
