re: Lets Quit Bashing our Players

but the coaches start them and when someone says "I hope he dies in a fire" or anything of the sort, is fricking ridiculous.

I'm not sure I recall any posters hoping a player dies in a fire. I've seen posters say that to other posters (still immature) but not about a player.

Look, this is a public forum for LSU fans to express opinions. The team isn't playing well and numerous players have under-performed. Those players are therefore going to be criticized, and rightly so, since they signed with LSU to play big-boy football. And with that comes pressure and lofty expectations. If they don't want that, go play I-AA ball.

But I think nearly all posters here respect our players, assuming we believe they are working hard, doing their best, and positively representing the university.

But that doesn't exempt them from criticism where it's warranted.
