Damn doesn't Chris Warner know that posters on TD.com would be better coaches than Les Miles and would use "all that talent" to destroy every team that chooses to face LSU?


+1. I'll even go a step further that some of the more esteemed posters from the MSB and/or OT who grace us with their presence here would probably lead this incredibly talented squad to an upset win over the New Orleans Saints.

Are there new rankings out for "talent wasted"?

My guess is that Bama is going back and revising all the old seasons to claim that they are last in talent wasted.

I've said several times that we should can Crowton and install a real-time polling system for The Rant.

"Ok ... here's the call from TD.com ..."

"Another Hail Mary pass? Geez, we're already up 82-0!"

I guarantee you Meyer gets better play from his QB next year than we have in either of the last two years.

I'm working on a playstation plug-in for TD that goes right to the headset of the play callers on the sidelines. It will be in Beta next year, but only the elite, MSB posters will be able to use it until final release...

These are the same people that come late and leave early during big ball games. I call them "Nega-tigers." These shallow, cold and timid souls know neither good sportsmanship, nor how to be a fan. They flood message boards with negative rants about the LSU Football coach, Les Miles, and even the young players themselves. They try and spin the Tiger Football program into a funk with their hateful words.


What utter horse crap!!

I have never arrived late or left early. I have never booed a Tiger player. I have certainly been critical of Miles. What? To criticize is to be a Nega-Tiger? WTF is a Nega-Tiger? Is it something that pollyannas wearing purple and gold glasses label others to make themselves feel better?

Please save your generalities and pompous judgmental comments.

I dunno, dude. It seems like he wrote the article about you directly. I mean, he didn't mention you by name, but I think you can read between the lines...

LSU was in the top tier of SEC teams when he took over. Clearly they are not right now. Celebrate him when/if he gets them back to big boy status in the league.


Year before Les Miles got here-
9-3, losses to every team we played with more than 7 wins, 2 close losses, one blowout.

One win over a 7-5 team in overtime because the opposing kicker missed. (Oregon State)

One come from behind win on the road over an SEC East team that finished 7-5 because of late game heroics from a running back. (UF)

A somewhat close game against a bad Vandy team.

A piss poor performance in a late rent-a-win game. (24-20 Troy)

Against teams above .500
Won by 1
Lost by 1
Lost by 29
Won by 3
Won by 4
Lost by 5

2009-
9-3, losses to every team they played with more than 7 wins (so far), 3 close losses.

One win over a 7-5 team in overtime because their kicker missed. (Arkansas)

One come from behind win on the road over an SEC East team that finished 7-5 because of late game heroics from a running back. (UGA)

A somewhat close game against a bad Vandy team.

A piss poor performance in a late rent-a-win game. (La Tech)

Against teams above .500:
Won by 7

No. True satire is having a 9-3 team ranked #13 -#15 with an upcoming January Bowl Game, while seeing certain posters talking about the Coach's buyout clause.

Well, excuuuuuuuuuse me!! LOL

I just hate all of the nega-tiger labels. It's pure horseshite. People portraying themselves as super fans who have never uttered a discouraging word is nonsense. To think of ones self as a superior fan is pompous and arrogant.

Plus, Warner's writing sucks necrotic goat nads.

You're not an LSU fan, Chris. You're a LES MILES fan.
