the vitriol


I said there were legitimate reasons for thinking Lee should play. I used the word vitriol to describe the hate(thug, etc) that was thrown at JJ all season. You can think that Lee should play over JJ and that would be legitimate; however it is not an explanation for the shite that was thrown JJ's way this year by our own fanbase. Disagree all you want but my eyes and ears know better.

The people bitching about JJ are the same people who hated Lee 4 years ago when he was throwing pick 6's

people cheered for Lee when he got injured a couple years ago so Jefferson could come in

I find it hard to believe the OP is a lawyer. I wouldn't think someone who reads and writes all day would have created a post that is so rife with grammatical and spelling errors.

What is the deal with the utter hate of your QBs???!!!

Reading the posts, it just seems crazy, and I've never seen anything like it.
that's because other fan sites delete negative posts

T'ain't because of the color of their skin! It's because of the length of they pass.

Again, I'm just flabbergasted that some of you guys would hate your own players, largely over "fanbois" who support a player because of the color of their skin. It is just sad.
When Lee was the starter in 08 he was blasted to no end. All last year JJ was blasted. Earlier this year Lee was on fire (no blasting needed), now back to JJ... Its been a nightmare. There are racists everywhere, even your town - but the bashing on here is due to production not race. We immortalize Honey Badger Mingo, big Sam, etc... definitely not race pal.

Yea, I noticed that too. But I guess being a lawyer doesn't automatically make you intelligent.

Would you say the "vitriol" aimed at Lee during his time here is racial?

I'd also say our frustration is with play calling....

JJ does much better in a roll out situation, he's not a very good pocket quarterback. he tends to look like a "stunned mullet" when his first read isn't open and he's very vulnerable to the sack in that situation...

I dont recall seeing anyone say they hate any player.... I personally think we could use both qb's in the game, but I dont dislike either of them, hell... I have never even met them! But I do have a little solution to your dilemma..if you dont like what you see over here, stay your 2000 post arse over on the other site!! See ya!!

Ha Ha. First, when I post on message boards, it is usually with a beer in my hand. Second, I proofread everyday (I'm an intellectual property lawyer), and when I come on message boards to waste some time, I rarely spell check and get concerned with grammar.

See my sig quote.

LSU has an inexhaustible supply of ignorant fans.

I keep working on them, but there are so many of them and so little time.

Nice way to stereotype southern people. Yea, we just look at skin color. Not surprised this is coming from someone up North. Best thing you can do is just stay off the rant.

This is the biggest indictment of the racial charge.

But here, you guys literally hate JJ or JL. You call them names. Sure, JJ had his assault deal, and JL seems like he has little interest in class, but they are YOUNG MEN (like many of you) who make mistakes, and why would you turn on your own because of that?


Thanks for pointing it out. It's absolutely pathetic.

Gordy Rush said on the post game a saying I do recall years ago: what is the best LSU season ever? Undefeated, untied, unscored upon and fire the coach.

That said, the race angle is a convenient conclusion with a very little basis in reality.

Welcome to the Rant, if you've lurked here for a while you've probably already figured out the need to filter out and ignore a large percentage of what you will see here.

I think your observations are spot on for the most part. No doubt some of the QB issue is probably racially motivated, but I would hope it's a small percentage.

Believe it or not, there is a segment of the fan base that just wants to believe they're smarter than our head coach.

I know, it's UNBELIEVABLE...but true. LSU is experiencing a dream season that couldn't have been scripted any better. Yet we have "fans" bitching moaning and griping about who's taking snaps...

As an LSU graduate and a life long fan, I'd love to be able to explain it to you. But I've got nothing...other than the simple fact that some of our fans are too stupid to appreciate what we have and exactly how "magical" of a year this is!
