October 14, 200620 yr I just don't think those outside of Jefferson Co. see this incident as a "war crime." So if you are baited into stomping the bird, by classless taunts, jeers, etc., who is really disrespecting who? And which shows the most lack of class? IMO it is no longer disrespectful when you are ANTAGONIZING the other team to do it. That's like saying a guy sucker punched you when you are over there running your mouth, telling him he won't do it. And then when it happens, you act so shocked and appalled. As far as coaches go, Mark Dantonio is about as classy as it gets. He has made some stops at some very prestigious universities on his way to UC, so I'd say he knows a thing or two about how to act. To flat out call him a liar is appalling. But here's what I can't believe no one has touched on yet. Anyone notice a trend with all these problems? UC, ECU, etc. have only had this problem where? Louisville. They don't have problems at other stadiums across the country. It's amazing how these problems seem to be "attracted" to the Cards. I wonder if they could have anything to do with it.....:walk:First of all I think this idea that Louisville "baits" opponets to stomp of there logo is both new and a little humorous. Secondly, I think Dantonio was upset about how the incident gave his team the image of being unsportsman like. I can understand his being defensive about the issue. I fully expect him to recit the incident in a manner that puts his team in the best light, it is his job to protect his team and program. To say that he wouldn't lie or reillustrate the past because he has coached at bigger programs, is the one of the most rediculous rationalizations I've ever heard. Thirdly, as a former football player, I don't know how anyone can justify jumping on an opponets homefield logo as anything other than disrespectful. There are unwritten rules on how to act as a visitor in a stadium, it is perfectly acceptable to "pump yourself up on your sideline or in an endzone, but you should never do it on the opponets logo. You might as well push over all the cheerleaders and the dance team on your entrance if you are going to do that. The players knew what they were doing, with or without the blessing of thier coach, the team was showing disrespect.
October 14, 200620 yr I'd stomp the feathers off of it if I played for UC! That will be the only good 20 seconds they will have in Louisville:)
