Not exactly.  I made the post, and I thought Shields' comment
on the Lakers was a nice touch.  I didn't intend to imply that
Shields is [or isn't] a "classy guy".  That's a debate that I'll
leave for a Shields fan to pick up.

I've seen it, and I understand it and agree with it.  It certainly can
be motivation for BU [and Harvard and Minnesota], but I believe
it was meant as a tribute to Michigan and Lake Superior rather
than a slight to the others.  Michigan and LSSU are the two best
teams that Shields has seen this season.  I'd even say that they
are the two best teams I've seen this season...and that includes
BU and Minnesota.
 
BTW...this isn't meant to imply that I think the Lakers will take
the title.  I believe the emotional struggle with Michigan may
have taken too much out of them.  I have to believe this game
was more intense than any of the other quarterfinals...including
the Minn-UML double overtime affair.  BU has to be the overall
favorite, Minnesota is playing in their backyard and LSSU-HU
is a toss-up.
