Why? I ask that sincerely and have done so since this thing first broke. Why is it good for anyone involved to start tossing around rumors? As Nico stated, are we not LSU fans here? Is it not in the best interest of the program we love to WAIT and allow the investigation to go forward without us churning the pot with round after round of rumors which get out and repeated everywhere as fact?
In no way am I suggesting I don;t want justice done both on and off the field...but until we actually know what the hell happened, what good does it do anyone to be part of the rumor mill? Other than the ability to hang around a message board and claim victory, I see no point in it at all, and frankly I think it does more harm than good.
Your right and I agree with you about rumors not helping anything, but they WILL be posted here and everywhere else. Hell WAFB is reporting them as fact. If we are going to have rumors posted and reported everywhere, I would rather they come from someone who is suppose to be "in the know" if Nico's source really is. And like i said I do believe him when he said that a players gf told him that...i just dont know if we should fully believe the gf or not. But his source is probably better than Doucet's with WAFB

With you so far...

and that's why they have admins.

They are a news organization without any emotional ties to LSU. We, LSU fans, ought to wait this shite out...unless we have an agenda not to.
Remember back in 2002 when the whole fake Saban speech after the UK game about the BAMA team came out? I was pretty intimately involved with that...and despite it being written by an LSU fan with no intent to harm, that shite was brutal for a while...because rumors began to spread like wildfire and despite the best efforts of all those involved there was literally no stamping them out once they got out of control. That was hard to watch as a fan, knowing that an issue had been made bad/worse by a fellow fan with no bad intentions and once it had it was too late. I see a similar thing here! Yes...something clearly happened, but until we actually know anything we're only making the situation WORSE for LSU and the players. Why not just sit back, allow this thing to play out WITHOUT helping to move potentially false information forward ourselves?
