NOWHERE in that article is that written at all, and quite frankly I'm getting a little sick of all the dishonesty all around with this.

People automatically saying it was booing Jefferson himself and never considering the fact that it was obviously the decision to put Jefferson in in the first place. SURE there were some who were booing Jefferson the person, but I'm not so ridiculous and ignorant of people's feelings on this to believe that the majority of fans were booing Jefferson himself rather than what they saw as a decision which slighted Lee who had brought us to this point.

HOWEVER, that is why booing has no place here, because it's too ambiguous as to what is actually being booed, and so it should clearly be stopped. In any case, I didn't like the decision, but more so, I really didn't care for the insertion of JJ into a drive and then Lee coming in to try and get a pass completed on 3rd down. My REAL issue with it is that I think it builds to CONFUSION and halts momentum.

All I can say is this. If LSU tries to use JJ as a run QB against Alabama, then it's going to fail miserably.

I smell bullshite and a coward justifying his actions by saying they were directed at an intangible decision.

If you look at the MUCH BIGGER PICTURE, I think it was a brilliant move by Miles. Obviously, the players want THEIR TEAMATE, JJ, on their team, as does the coaching staff. He was going to get in at some point and in a seemingly easy game against Kentucky was the perfect place to not only get the boo birds out of the way, but give him some meaningful snaps and put this behind the team. Can you imagine the effect it might have if we go into the Fla game with all of this uncertainty still floating about. NOW PUT YOUR TIGERS AHEAD OF YOUR PERSONAL FEELINGS AND HAVE SOME CLASS; SUPPORT YOUR TEAM LOUDLY!
