You're wasting your breath. These people are not coming from the same place you are and you'll never convince them. The motivation that drives them is not out and out fandom for the LSU Tigers.
I'm sure their motivations are diverse - it could be that Miles would not shake their hands in the bathroom at Walk Ons; or that they still can't accept tha Saban left for the Dolphins and ended up in Bama; or maybe they had another favorite candidate for the head coaching job; or perhaps a prep player they know or like was not offered a scholly; or their favorite player has not gotten the playing time they think he deserves; or one of a million of other things.
Bottom line, is you can read their posts and get enjoyment out of them and even engage them in conversation but I think it's a mistake to think that they are open minded enough on the issue to ever be convinced that they're wrong.

quote:No, that isn't the bottom line. You've put way too much thought and analysis into it. It's because the team appears poorly coached and prepared, many game day mistakes are made, games that should have been won were lost, and the coach has a poor public perception in the media and nationally. It isn't any of the things above that you've dreamed up in your latest pseudo-psychoanalysis that's worth about 25 cents.
