Last night was the first time I have ever changed the channel before a game was over. I just get tired of watching the same 4 plays being run the entire season, and it has gotten boring to me. My plan was to watch to see if anyone got hurt in the fourth quarter, but I changed the channel with 5 minutes left in the 4th. I know exactly what is going to happen 90% of the time, and if it isn't working, the same plays continue to be called.

Could this be part of the reason so many people have begun to leave games early? I never would've thought it would get to that point, and was disappointed in myself for doing it, but it happened.

You would have been pissed if Harris connected on that Hail Mary and you had changed the channel and missed it

Well you're about to get "fan shamed", but when you choose to tune in or out of a game is your business. If I'm not enjoying what's on the television I either change the channel or turn it off. There will be plenty who act as though you're the reason the team lost last night.

I just go to saints games. At least they are fun to watch win or lose

LSU is extremely vanilla and boring to watch. Miles has finally brought our program into mediocrity.

Yeah, I was pretty angry about that. I was watching it at the house by myself, but as soon as I heard, I scrambled to change it back, but didn't catch it in time.

Still doesn't change the fact that the rest of the game was boring and frustrating. I didn't expect any changes to be made, so I lost interest

We were ranked 8th before the loss last night- that means we were perceived as a highly ranked team. Yes, it was a bad loss and we were outcoached last night, but no reason to jump off the ship...

They have become so predictable (I am not even talking about predictably bad either), that it is like re-watching the lottery numbers on the news for 3 days after you find out you lose


Eta: I can add that it doesn't matter what we are ranked or what bowl game we are in, the games are still boring. You all know it is true, but only a few will admit it. This pass game has got to get going for it to keep me entertained the entire time.


Damn I hate this

Once I saw Miss State could stuff the run up the middle I knew they had stopped 95% of LSU's offense.


I went with my wife to an engagement party. I missed nothing and everything I predicted was true.
