FIU lost 13-2. As usual, classy showing by the UCG team. Their pre-game chant included screams of "F-ck Turtle Thomas, let's kill these guys" with kids sitting right near where they did this. Then they proceeded to jump all over home plate after one of their guys hit a home run. They reacted like if he just won the world series and it was the first inning. I was hoping our pitcher would throw at or behind their next hitter because you don't do that kind of stuff at someone else's park but that didn't happen. Hope we beat them at their place in a few weeks.
I hate UCG

And, of course, let's not the forget about the classy showing of the UCG fans. Which, ironically enough, one older man started making fun of others calling them "disrespectful Miami fans", yet he made himself look like the fool because he certainly fit into the stereotype. They were talking about how us FIU fans are fairweather fans. Another hilarious comment from UCG fans, btw. They need to look at themselves first before they start to talk trash about others. They were annoyed at our amazing band, who continued to play no matter how much these UCG fans complained and trash talked. Seriously, they would make fun of anything of ours, even our sound effects (like the glass shattering after a foul ball leaves the park).
I will like to mention that not all UCG fans were jerks. One gentlemen who sat directly behind me was talking on his cell phone and said very nice things about our park. He said that it was beautiful and he enjoyed paying just $10 vs. $20 for the 2nd row at Mark Light.

My thoughts: Miami is a better team right now and will be until Turtle has time to bring in his recruits (especially pitchers), Morris hates Turtle (and maybe vice versa), and the true Miami fans (the ones who actually went to school there) are not as classless as some of the people who never attended the institution nor have the ability to point out the campus on a map.
Unfortunately, our next matchup with Miami in a few weeks might have a similar result.

Yes. That terrible, evil, classless "UCG."
The school where FIU's athletic director, head football coach and 3 assistant football coaches graduated and another assistant football coach started out as a graduate assistant.
Oh and the school where FIU's head baseball coach spent 12 years as an assistant.
And where at least one trustee is a UM graduate and another is the wife of our board chairman, who's Music school bears their name.
And where probably half the student body are UM athletic fans. The other half are just bitter haters that frequent this god forsaken message board.

LOL....talk about classless...as usual when this poster comes here..full of hate.....Interesting number of threads over at some of their boards with most (not all), as expected, criticizing everything and anything FIU. Pretty entertaining and telling stuff over there. mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=13#s=13&f=2930&t=2303145mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=13#s=13&f=2930&t=2305391Great team they are putting over there at Coral Gables. You have to be gracious when you lose AND humble when you win. It goes both ways. |

You have to be gracious when you lose AND humble when you win. It goes both ways. Yeah you play the role of a nice guy when you're on our board but you revert back to FIU fan when you post here. FIU fan being an insult. This board is the most telling of any on the internet. Delusions of grandeur mixed in with jealous hatred and a sprinkle of demeaning insults, of should I say intended insults. Yes, that one. The one that they all deserted to come here. Only because of opportunity my friend. If Mario can ever win like 5 games at FIU he would bolt at any better offer from elsewhere. Same with Pete Garcia. And I'm sure that those guys would be quite fond of the UCG and other insults. Have you ever thought of saying that to Tiger Clark's face? I'd be interested in his reaction. |

Delusions of grandeur mixed in with jealous hatred and a sprinkle of demeaning insults, of should I say intended insults. And you post here why then? isn't that just displaying your own delusions of grandeur by posting on this site with a "Holier than thou" attitude? Basically, the posters on this board have every right to think highly of FIU athletics since this is an FIU athletics fanboard. They have the right just as much as the posters on the UM message boards have the right to think UM's crap doesn't stink over there. If you have nothing better to do with your time but to troll rival school's message boards, then you are just displaying not only your personal lack of class, tact, and decorum, but you are coming off as a complete idiot as well. |

I'm just saying the truth. Your lack of class exhibited here in FIU's board without trying to be civil is childish and arrogant. If you go to another board, the least you should do is act with class...Obviously, you haven't learned it yet....Remember, you have to have class and act humbly when you win...nothing different from here from there..otherwise, it speaks of a troubled person....

I think that all of this UM/FIU 'rival' crap is stupid. I love FIU and FIU sports but I do not feel that we are 'rivals' with UM. Yea, some coaches came from UM, that is the only thing that ties our school to them. UM is on a totally different level then FIU. They have years of tradition and winning and we are just starting all over again. I hope we can get to the level that UM is at in all sports but it takes time.
At the baseball game, their fans weren't that bad or at least I didn't think so. Yes, they were saying things but it was among themselves and some of us overheard them but who cares? Does anyone remember last year when UM played at our field? Our fans were pretty classless to say the least. You can say that they yell cause they are fans showing I guess you can say school spirit, but these fans also ONLY come around for these so called rival games v. UM.
Do you expect UM fans to praise us and talk highly about our program? We lost 13-2.
oh, and the whole jumping on home plate thing... If we were at UM and we played as well as UM did at our field I could almost guarantee that our players would be doing that also.
