This board is tame and boring compared to 2007. Get a grip.

Lots of complaining about what is happening on this board. The 2007 iteration with the "Les to Michigan" rumors, Herbie, Desmond, the SEC Championship Game, "Have a nice day!" ... all of it ... that was the Wild West and the high-water mark of Tigerdroppings.com, in my opinion. I've never seen anything like it.

belowpar

Rumors were flying and you had to refresh the board every 30 seconds to keep up.

This is nothing compared to that. This is tame and kind of boring/slow.


I'm just saying that because everyone complaining about what is happening on this board needs to remember what happened 9 years ago and get some perspective. It will all work out - or it won't. But, this board is not the mess that many are saying it is.

Actually, I wish that things would liven up a bit. We're in a coaching change and its the last week of the season. We need to see some PASSION!!!

It's because the admins have discouraged all the actual insiders from posting anything. All we're left with is:

What about O?
What about Peyton Manning?
What about Gruden?

It sucks. The admins killed the energy of this board. It's a shame.

admins are whacking and stacking posts because reporters are reading this board and taking info and running with it.

Ding ding ding

Welcome to the world of modern journalism where credibility and confirmation standards are nonexistent and click bait is king.

hey genius,

you asked me in a thread that was whacked why does jimbo have 7 losses in 2 years? well first off he is not a DC. that clearly has been a issue lately. Now to show how silly you look, has he not reloaded long enough at FSU for you? You never think anybody can have a down year? he has lost a few very close games. His freshman Qb is doing as good as any we have had post JR.

Now,i realize you think you were being cute and you "had" something with that retort. Let me ask you, why did saban have 8 LOSSES in 07 and 08 combined? Why did Meyer have 6 losses in 2009 and 2010 combined? with all that talent like you accused jimbo of having. why did meyer have 4 losses in 2007 with all that talent? those two coaches are the best two in the nation!

Do you feel silly now?? You should because you still have proven with your question you are clueless about football.

Yes, reporters didn't quite so much troll message boards for their stories ten years ago like they do now.

Was this board open for 2 months of the season in 2007? Rumors were flying because news was moving fast.

It just seems tame and boring this year because every dead horse has been beaten a dozen times already.

LSU would have to use 2/3 of their scholarships on defensive players to keep them fresh, as much as they'd be on the field.
