The "Complacency Syndrome" is rampant among the sunshine pumping ranters here, who can accept nothing that might rock their happy little boat or hold CLM accountable.

Who here has ever said that they are happy with the offensive production?? Point them out to me, and I'll join in your mockery of them.

That said, there is a difference between actually understanding some of the struggles that we have had trying to get back on track since Crowton's mishandling of the 08/09 seasons and being "complacent" in a "happy little boat".

Many of us are encouraged that we have a staff that can continue to win at an unprecedented rate in LSU's history that went up every year since 08 DESPITE not having a reliable QB to run a complete offense.

This season, with a much more capable QB, we took a step back with OL and WR production, but still saw flashes of a much more dangerous attack, most notably against Washington before the OL fell apart and despite countless WR drops, then against the #1 team and defense in the country against Alabama, continuing against 2 SEC teams in a record setting 3 game stretch.

Why is it that so many of the "Catastrophists" refuse to acknowledge even the possibility of improvement from this staff that has continued to win despite huge talent deficiencies at the most important position on a football team??

Are they being objective and unbiased?? Or do they have a more personal and long standing dislike and lack of respect for our coach, despite him continually disproving their warnings of impending doom of the program since the Tennessee game in 2005?
