If it is "good", why would you choose not to comment on the fact that it is good? Why is the fact that it is "good" and not "bad" worth commenting on? And the coach is not "great", but is he "good"? If he is "good", then same questions. And if he's "bad", then how do we keep winning and succeeding more than most other programs do? LSU has a better record, more tournament appearances, and more NBA players under CJJ's tenure than most of Div. I. How would a "bad" coach achieve that much?
the program isn't very good right now, the coach isn't great, etc.....
It is hard to give much credibility to someone who claims to really love LSU when they are so eager to stress at length every conceivable negative about the program but so hard pressed to show any joy at any of the success.
Another way of looking at it is this: why would you not be at least as eager to find positives in an LSU loss as you are to find negatives in an LSU win?

This gets me with people. I admit, walking out of the PMac tonight I was pissed as were alot of people, and I was more angry anout the refs not calling a foul to put TQ on the line right there at the end. But I am a realist and realize the sky hasnt fallen, this is basketball, you can lose some games! This team played their hearts out tonight and it should be rewarded by the fans, they wanted to win just as bad as we wanted them to win it.

and i thought the FOR EXAMPLE would be enough.... i wasn't meaning for those examples to be used literally in this discussion....

positives in an LSU loss
no such thing.... i'm not about that "everybody gets a participation trophy" bullshite...
quote:my expectation is for LSU to win every time they lace up for any sport.... so when they lose, it's a disappointment... if they do win, it's expected.... that's how i operate.... for example, i expect my kid to come home with all A's when she gets to school... if she doesn't, it's a disappointment... if she does, it's not exactly traffic stopping news... it's expected...
as you are to find negatives in an LSU win?
