Yall act like our fanbase is the absolute worst in the country....its not! You need to read on some of the other forums for other teams...same schit as here and, in some cases, much worse!

Last time I looked, no one is picketing in front of the football offices, players aren't being attacked outside their dorm rooms, the stadium is not on fire, and no one has kidnapped Les's kids.

The only place for fans to vent is on this site. I dont, for one minute think any rational 3/4/5 star recruit is gonna seriously reconsider commmiting here b/c of some stupid BS he heard about on a fan website. If I was a recruit, I wouldnt give two hoots in hell about what a bunch of goofy fans think. Players come here for the prestige, the chance to win it all, and for the exposure..and they will continue to come.

Some of you self-righteous MF's need to quit telling others what they should/should not think or feel!

Finally, Im not gonna slam CLM....Don't need to....1/9/12 speaks for itself. Fans who have followed this program for years know whats going on and no amount of sunshine-blowing is gonna change anyone's opinion.

It's almost universal that people who take the time to post online about anything tend to be over-passionate and a poor representation of the general public.

Whether that's about a LSU Fan board, or a negative review on Amazon.com, most happy people who have a lot of other better things to do and have less negativity stay away from the internet in general

Find another team with as much success on the field with as much negativity in the fanbase and you'll win the argument.

Hint: Don't waste your time. There is no more negative chicken little whining fanbase than LSU. Catastrophe syndrome.

Although they see it different, the ridicule players and coaches took after the game DID have an effect, and you're a moron if you didn't notice it. Russell Shepard had a tweet about people talking shite about him that was basically along the line of "Are you kidding? This is just more reason to leave!" A kid who has been all LSU and did nothing wrong, hell didn't have a chance to, and people dove on him for not immediately saying he'd stay. Get over yourself. It does have an effect, and the majority of our fanbase, stupid half educated rednecks, is making us look stupid.

What has happened to this recruiting class has nothing to do with the fans. Players speaking their minds after the season has nothing to do with fans. The recent problems fall squarely on les mile's head. Anyone blaming the fan base is just an idiot.

You mean like 75-18, top in BCS football since 2005, or 43-17, top in SEC football since 2005, or two BCSCG appearances in the last 5 years or national rankings since 05 of #1, #2, #3, #5, #8, and #17??

That the type "going on" you talking bout?

Yeah, I know what's going on...its the best period of success under one HC, Les Miles, in LSU HISTORY!

Some need to wake up and enjoy it.

You are wrong! This site is very well known by young high school kids. This should be obvious by the content of most postings. Also, they are very impressionable. It's the internet age and this is the de facto LSU site that our recruits use to follow the program. So get with the program. Stop the piling on and move on.

No, it's not. That's not to say that the behavior of too large a portion isn't absolutely fricking embarrassing...because it is.

So, the fact that others programs ALSO have stupid fans should shield ours from being called out? Sure, that sounds brilliant.

So is that what it takes to have bad fans...a fricking kidnapping?

False. This is one of the only places stupid people can bitch anonymously about LSU. You have every right to bore your fricking friends and family with your stupid crap all you want. but there you actually have to own up to those opinions.

These are kids that hold press conferences like they're the god damn president. who knows what does and does not affect their choices.

You're not.

Wait...given what a huge portion of our fans seem to think, we don't have any of these things.

Irony...as valuable to the internet as titties and hyperbole!

You're a tool and exactly the problem with the fanbase. Enjoy attempting to bring down the program.

I've read many forums and without question, our fanbase has as many fragile, misinformed jackasses as any in the country. We're only rivaled by the Gumps.
