Obsession to Win !

Where does this come from? Seriously, how does it make your life better or worse? Everything in life is based on this win or lose principal. Do you even understand that this attitude comes straight from ego? It's not real,there's no reward in that attitude.
Are you a puppet? If your team wins, you feel happy and peaceful, if it loses, you feel sad and resentful. WTF?
You should really just relax and breath, it's a game, it has no effect on anything, it's entertainment.
A little ribbing, and harmless banter is okay, but spewing anger and hate directly at players boarders on insane behavior.
When I say you, if the shoe fits wear it.

Denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.

Yeah, but that "entertainment" is my only life line to Louisiana. Not all of us are still living there. Some of us love LSU and their football program more than others.

Still isn't as bad as Gumps poisoning trees and killing their sisters.

I think that there are a certain group of people that act this way because it allows them to live vicariously through the success of the team without having to actually put in any of the blood, sweat and tears to achieve the success.
If the team wins, these fans get benefit of enjoying that win. While if the team looses, well, it isn't' their fault, they can just blame the coaches and players.

You must have been on one of those soccer teams where no scores were kept and everybody got a trophy and an orange slice.

Win = Good
Lose = Bad
We would all have to be sent to reeducation camps to no longer believe this.

This came from an NFL executive."If you dont want to win at everything then your a loser."
Its not the obession to win. Its the fact that we have all the talent in the world(NFLU) year after year and watch an offense that has averaged 50th in the NCAA during les miles reign. Les is a good coach but is just to stubborn to change an offense that is so predictable that i can call 95% of the plays much less an opposing Def cord.

I believe everybody should have an obsession to win mentality. Why in the hell would anybody be okay with losing. If loosing ain't that bad go and ask the Japs about how they felt after Hiroshima

an obsession to win when you can do nothing to affect the results is an interesting phenomenon.

Because people have emotional ties to Louisiana and it's teams. You can't tell people not to be emotionally attached to something they care about and want to see succeed.
I don't think we would see as many people complaining if we lose doing the best we can, but not from a sht show put on by the guys preparing the team that people pay to see.

The obsession is not like it used to be. Most of us already know things are not going to change. SEC is just too strong now.
Enjoy our annual 8-10 wins, and win a decent bowl game.

Yep. You convinced me.
I'm going to DVR the games and watch 'em later, if LSU wins and doesn't look like a Clown Show with the win.

winners are driven by the obsession to win. it doesnt matter if its checkers, a coin toss, a game, ect. you are representative of the problem with this country. Everyone doesnt get a trophy and everybody doesnt win.
