re: Lee and having heart

I have reached basically the same conclusion...and I went to Bama. I'm not sure if I wouldn't have just walked off the field and left them screaming after getting the lead. Guess it's still about character.

well put Baloo. well put.

I admire his heart and guts. Very mature for his age.

I'll never forget what Jamie Howard went through at LSU and remember that being so unfair to a college guy, and to see JL rise above all the negativity from fans who are more worried about their gameday buzz than the players, says so much about his character.

I'm behind you JL!

What many people don't appear to realize is that a significant percentage of the posters on here feel empowered by the anonymity a message board provides to say things they wouldn't have the balls to say face-to-face, and to pretend to a level of intelligence and knowledge that they may never achieve in real life. Giving credence to what they say is completely irrational.

And I don't think a lot of people realize that other fan bases (from schools we compete with on the field and in recruiting circles) read this negative, hatin' crap and catch bits of it on LA radio, and run with it!

B'ham sports talk radio, both AM and FM shows are all having a lot to say about how LSU fans are bashing their coach, booing their players and stampeding out of the stadium mid-game. I think recruits, no matter how much they expect to succeed in CFB still want to know deep down that they won't be hung out if they fall on hard times on the field, either. Bama-tards are know for all their sunshine blowing, but given the two extremes, I think they do their program less harm that the "hatas" do for LSU... It's not just bad behavior for these people, it sheds a very bad light for all in the P&G....

What's so hard to get about this. Just throw the damn ball out of bounds if you don't have an open receiver. Anyone would accept that, and just take the incompletion and move on to the next play. It's when the kid keeps doing the same dumb thing over and over that is getting everyone angry enough to boo. If he wants to stop the boos, stop doing the dumb things every week.

So that's how you did it when you were quarterback?

This is a bigger insult than every boo Lee's ever received, put together.

+1 = Absolutely the best post of the year. Booing should be unacceptable no matter what the situation. Fans should just leave or shut up. I know I myself have been hard on Lee with all the picks and his mechanics sometimes baffles me. I also get very frustrated with a team (especially the defense) which I feel has underperformed and coaches that appear to be lacking in game preparation. But, Lee's tenacity has been inspiring. Thanks Baloo!

Seriously - Y'all make us look like Philadelphia fans. I can't wait to see it next year when one of the talking heads talks about Tiger Stadium used to be one of the most fearful places to play, and see 200 threads about how ESPN hates us.

Plus you don't think it fires up the other team when we are booing our own players and people start leaving the stadium?

I am gonna yell my arse off on Saturday for my tigahs, especially the seniors who have given me 4 unforgettable years. Who's with me!?!?!?!
