An editorial: In defense of the so-called negatigers.

Intredasting first post.

you shuvinistick pig

a lot of fans react negatvely immediately after a game, and then cool down after they think about things in perspective.

the only real negatigers are those who can't appreciate the good things and the good qualities of our coaching staff. Nobody's perfect. Not even Saint Nick.

those other schools have good coaches and good players, and they are trying to win.

But I got no problems with anyone presenting legitimate concerns and pointing out negatives.

everyone in life has strengths. Our strengths are also our greatest weaknesses. Our success is largely based on recognizing our strengths and compensating for how they also make us weak.

Coach Miles hard-headedness, or singlemindedness is a strength, but also a weakness. for one example. He knows what he wants to do, what kind of players and what kind of team he wants, and he goes about that very well. The weakness comes in not being able to make adjustments in a timely fashion. He'll generally get around to them, but maybe too late to salvage a game or two.

Most people are blind dude - the "negatigers" have valid points, but people choose to call them negatigers instead of listening.

Obviously enough people were pissed off with LSU's performance the first 5 or so weeks that CLM made some changes....for the better thankfully.

On to ATM

constructive criticism

+1 ..rarely happens...almost never....81-19

A negatiger is not someone with a criticism. A negatiger is that guy who makes watching a Tiger game so difficult because every play that doesn't work out perfectly is another example of why we need to get rid of Miles. You all know the type. And a lot of them post here.

bullshite. I will listen to any and all criticisms of Les Miles and this team. Nothing wrong with the criticisms.

However, people need to keep some perspective. When you criticize, you better have a solution, and that solution better be something you can back up.

Let me give you an example of how not to do it:

"Josh Dworaczyk is playing poorly" - OK, I'm listening...

"Josh Dworaczyk is playing poorly and needs to be benched" - ...

"Josh Dworaczyk is playing poorly and needs to be benched in favor of [insert random, unproven player]" - Umm, no. No way for you to make a case that it will be better for the team. Saying it can't get any worse is not going to cut it.

"Josh Dworaczyk is playing poorly and needs to be benched in favor of [insert random, unproven player], but this will never happen because JD is one of Stud and Miles' favorites" - Complete bullshite. Nega-Tiger.

I think we were on the same wavelength at the same time.
