    Is there any prank that is "right"? All I am arguing is that it was not classless, just stupid. The players stomping on the logo is alot more classless than this stupid prank and just reflects poorly on the team more than anything.

    Last thing I'll say on the subjuct: Why is it classless? Because it's giving out someone's personal information, period! What number of nutjobs now/had has his number? What about threats he and the school now has to put up with. Only a certain number of people had access to him, now millions do/did. He is not just a player but also a student who probably doesn't have the time to put up with this kind of crap! He doesn't get paid and who knows may never make a dime from playing if injuried. He's also a young kid! How many people would like thier personal info given out? NONE! It's beyond a prank and beyond classless!
    Does it reflect on the LSU team or thier season? No. Just how idiotic one person is.
    As far as some players stomping on another team's logo that would be poor sportsmanship = classless. It's not about defending one team or another just what a senseless and classless act it was to give out a kid cell number. Call it what you want but that's my 2 cents.

I did say it was sophomoric, and like you said moronic, but not classless. If I was a student now, I would probably would have called it, you do stupid stuff like that in college.

    You cannot tell me in a couple weeks if some one at Tenn gets hold of a star player's cell number at SC or Ky, and was able to get the number around, it would not happen up there either.

    As for the vulgar language, you can turn on any sporting event and if a bad call happens, you will hear BS being yelled by the fans all day long. The university and band are looking into switching the TD song because of the chant. When I attended LSU in the late 80's, we had a TD song that the students chanted along with that had a vulgar word in it, it was changed because of it.

    Toys2, yesterday, ESPN Gameday was at LSU. You know the big thing is to make a sign to be seen in the background? Well someone got hold of Tebow cell number, put it on a sign and it got shown on national TV. Some people called the number and filled up his mailbox and some people text msg him.

    Here is something classless, unsportsman-like, and actually should have drawn a penalty last night. FLA players during warm up stomping on the Eye of the Tiger. Auburn did the same thing three years ago and got a pre-game unsportsman-like penalty. What did LSU do? They got to kick off from the 50 yard line, so they on-side kicked it, got the ball and made a quick 7 pts:
