And two were from the 2009 season.

However, it beats the countless name debate threads between the Louisiana schools we saw this summer...03-banghead

Actually, I think those are at least more entertaining.

I'm not knocking those that take band competition seriously, it provides scholarship opportunities for students and commitment to hard work. But that's why they hold band competitions throughtout the country, for most pure sports fans they are part of the game day atmosphere for football and basketball, and that is it!

For God sake, create a band smack folder!04-rock

As for the name debate threads, if we are talking about the branding of athletics, then it is about sports.

I see them as no worse then the weekly post on USA's football victories over prep schools or the local tech college.05-stirthepot

So you are saying that band exists primarily due to sports? To that I say the Louisiana name conflict exists primarily due to sports. Should we then have a 'folder' set aside for the Louisiana name debate?

No, my comments are clear. Bands are part of the game day atmosphere but clearly not a sport, nor is cheerleading despite PC rhetoric. The U of L name debate was centered around academia first. The use of "Louisiana" as branding athletics is not about academia, but branding of college athletics. Certainly a subject concerning athletics. You might want to check the smack folder, more then a few name threads were relocated into that folder. I rest my case sir.04-rock

If you don't want to read it, don't click on it.

If you start a thread titled "Pictures of Roseanne and Tom Arnold Having Sex", I won't click on it. Because I don't want to see that.

If you come across a thread titled "Band of Blue vs. SOTS, OMG!!!!11!!1!11!" or "I can't believe their classless band played while our dignified band was playing our favorite song in the world", I suggest you don't click on it, since you don't want to see that.

Again, its about clutter and a suggestion. The same could be said for any subject on this board, "if you don't like it, then don't read it!.
That has never stopped you from making comments in those threads either, expressing your opinion has it? Let's go ahead and make a thread for cheerleading, faculty, fraternities and sororities. Lets be more politically correct if we are going to entertain band smack threads on a sports board. Afterall, its only fair that they should be included.

Bottomline, bandtalk is band smack. It is what it is, thanks!04-chairshot

I don't see the point of a separate folder for band talk considering there are only three threads concerning bands on the main page. One was started within the past day or so. Two are from 2009 and commented on so they were bumped. It isn't a normal occurrence for numerous band threads to be had. But you are saying for these three threads we should have a separate smack board for band? Makes no sense to me.

What about threads about athletic budgets that turn into a pissing match? Or conference realignment threads which turn into a pissing match? Or threads on LA-Tech which turn into a pissing match? What about posts about the Braves since it relates to the Sun Belt conference less than the bands of our leage members? I am a Braves fan, but why clutter the board with Braves threads (or any of the above topics) if we can't even talk about the bands in our league?

Anything starting with the noun athletics, ie; conferences, NCAA, any college athletic program are about the subject of athletics. Our band is better then yours, has nothing to with college sports. But if people feel the need to exchange band smack, then why not create a band smack folder? Again, its not about subjects anyone likes. Its about Band SMACK!

I don't get the case for clutter. I like an active board. Sunbelt fans should come here to talk about what they enjoy.

I don't really care about bands (and I happen to think ours is sub par) but it is part of the atmosphere and experience. I wouldn't want to stop somebody who enjoys that from talking about it.
