is to not play them in any sport at all. I live in hattiesburg and am exposed to them constantly and know how they think. Don't take this post as being homeristic, b/c I will be the first to admit that MSU is usually in dire straits concerning athletics. First, Polk shouldn't ***** about their fans. But, if true, and I believe it, that the group was calling him a child molester and the such, that is wayyy out of line. The cop going on the field last year was unfathomable. Here'in lies the problem. If State and olemiss were the bloods and the crips, southern would be like the hattiesburg homeboys or something. They are alot like the gaza strip or the west bank. They long for recognition. They are in a conference that constantly realigns and gets weaker all of the time. It absolutely drives them up the wall that the best they can do on a consistent basis doesn't involve beating State and olemiss in football b/c niether of us will fool with them. I understand where State and olemiss are in the pecking order in the SEC, much to my chagrin. Imagine being lower on the pecking order than that and you have southern and it causes them much consternation. If we just drop the baseball series, we won't have to put up with dumbass articles from rick cleveland and we can ignore them 365 days out of the year instead of 363. It isn't worth the aggravation.
