At the expense of the other? All. If you have to put one down to make your favorite look better your motives deserve to be questioned. Supporting a player is a totally different issue. You don't have to trash one to support the other.

Both will start 6 a piece. Lee will start the final 6.

Well, technically I don't think its possible to support one player and not do it at the expense of the other. You can say you support both until your blue in the face, but at the end of the day, you have to support one more than the other.

And who was "trashing" other players?

In the context of wishing a loss on the team just so the player they support gets a shot, then hell yes that's a bad fan. I'm going to "pull for" whomever the coaches decide to put out there. Ask me today, and I would put Lee out there. I'll happily be incorrect if Jefferson has an amazing season. Just an opinion and nobody that thinks this should be labeled a bad fan.

You guys are too funny.


Okay, so you and Roger decided to generally talk about supporting players/the team and how that reflects on one's "fanhood" and it had nothing to do with the conversation that you and I were having at the same time regarding Jefferson versus Lee?

Ludicrous. Absolutely.

bullshite. Don't care who plays at any position, since I am not on the coaching staff and not able to evaluate. I don't pretend to know everything that goes on to contribute to a totally crappy offense. Just opinion.

You simply are overlooking a helluva lot of posts.

What is interesting, I haven't accused a single person yet you jumped right in. Still haven't claimed you were guilty of said offense, but you are definitely offensive. You seem to be defensive for no reason, or simply because you are trying to rationalize.

His post was about wishing one player performs poorly in order to get a different player a shot. We both believe this is a bad thing and not fan worthy (if I understood correctly).

I think you're overthinking this. Really all I'm saying is that while Jefferson is out there he gets my support... I want him to be a winner.

How can you support a player starting without it being at the expense of the other? It may not be vicious or mean-spirited, but its still at their expense.

I know a bunch of yahoos on here are trashing Lee as a bunch of yahoos are trashing Jefferson. But at the same time, many people who make valid points regarding the QB position getting attacked for "bashing" the other, when its anything but.

Do you defensive?

And the timing and address of your post leads one to easily assume that it was directed at me.

If it was, just say so. I'm not going to get upset. I may try to show you how you're wrong, but I won't lose sleep over it.

Trying to rationalize. I'm actually laughing at the hilarity of all of it.

easy. I don't care who starts and who succeeds. Will let the season take care of that. I have no clue how each has developed since the offseason. Do you??

Agree. I am addressing people who bash.

Paranoid and overreacting.

It was a general statement aimed at people who put down one player to prop up another.

If I am not addressing you, I see no reason for you to be so defensive.

"re: Lee v. Jefferson... ultimate vote"

I am so glad this is the "ultimate vote", so we can move on to other topics. I sure the coaching staff will use this poll for 60-70% of their decision making process.

Jefferson! I rewatched LSU vs. Alabama 2008 the other night and Lee threw 4 interceptions and 2 pick sixes.
