That's because they didn't have portable music devices with headphones for the players to listen to while you were younger. It's part of our generation.

Are you aware that your responses in this thread seem to completely contradict how you are attempting to portray yourself?

Although I do see the point the guy is making, the players like to get in their zone. And they should be doing whatever they need to do to get in the zone especially just hours before a big game. Save the autograohs for after the game and Fan Day.

I've seen some shitty posters come through here over the past few years but YOU, sir, are right up there with the worst of them. First you start a shitty thread about something completely irrelevant to LSU football then backpedal like a little bitch. It's like you're the real life definition of a rantard.

the only point he's made is that he's an older guy who doesn't understand and/or relate to the younger generations....they don't do the same things his generation did, so obviously they must be doing something wrong.

it's classic ignorance.

he's probably the same type of guy who says shite like, "there's no good music being made today. rock and roll died with classic rock." etc...

he's myopic, ignorant, and intolerant. and he's stuck in an era that he feels comfortable in.

congrats to him for not being able to accept change.

again...what a retard!

Forgive me for not taking any of this as if it were life and death.


This is a Three Stooges-style pie fight. I don't get my feelings hurt easily, and I'm not making a huge effort to portray myself in any particular manner.

But you can't deny that I know how to start a thread.

No, you don't know how to just admit you're a tard and move on.

okay...

I am an "elder" around here and see no problem with players having their headphones or such on as they are walking around... and I do have a HUGE problem that some "fans" think this is any sort of issue or shows a lack of discipline or being ready to play. Mobile music is a way of life for these kids and there's nothing wrong with them having their music to walk around with....

However, the funniest comment and only thing that prompted me to chime is was this:

The OP is just a crotchety 42 year old




I saw 42 a while back, and while I TRY not to be crotchety now, I am SURE I wasn't back then!!

I didn't mean to imply that all older people feel that way. I apologize if that's how I came off. I know there are many who are educated and understand that times change and different generations enjoy different things.

. He's of the opinion that the players gave him the attitude they could give a shite less about being there- and only wanted to listen to their f-ing music.

We are NOT other schools. We are better than that.

For the time being, THIS IS THEIR JOB. They represent LSU- it is their "firm", and the fans are the "shareholders". If an employee went into a business meeting wearing a f-ing set of headphones listening to the latest rap tunes, he'd probably get his arse fired sooner rather than later. It shows a blatant lack of seriousness, dicipline, and respect- just my opinion.

The shareholders deserve better. Just as we would have them wear proper attire, we should have them lay down the MP3 players for 15 minutes while meeting the fans. This is not the NFL.
