And, how about you tell us, EXACTLY how much good money you pay on LSU sporting events.


What does that matter? Does how much you pay affect your right to bitch or something? If he bought a ticket outside the stadium for the Florida game, does he have any less of a right to bitch than somebody who's had season tix for 40 years?

I have two season tickets and with the TAF fee there are not cheap the prices always go up when they are winning but do they go down when they are losing?

not bad, I think im in #3...objective pessimists...if we have a diciplinarian coach that knows his X's and O's on defense and is aggressive.....(oh hell, Ill just say Saban)...then I turn into a member of the 2nd group...

Does not matter much, I was just asking him EXACTLY how much money he pays. He was the individual bringing up that he is upset because of all his good money that he is paying. There is another solution for the poster, stop paying the money and stop attending the sporting events.

Now, taking the scenario you presented, if he only shows up and purchases a ticket outside the stadium for 1 game and that is the only game he attends, then NO, he has no place to rant and rave about LSU sports as he is not a true fan, but someone who only attended because of the spectacle of the event.

does it not bother anyone that the proformance of out team is only as good as the OC and DC rather than the head coach?

And, I present one more scenario going back to the original post made on this thread and the question I asked of that poster. Why does it bother people that someone who might also pay good money for a LSU sporting event wish to support the LSU coaches of that athletic team? Just because they paid good money or stood outside the stadium to buy a ticket to the Florida football game, are they not allowed to voice their opinion in support of the coach(es)?

This goes for most teams, but you rarely know because the HC always takes the blame....justified or not.

realistic enough to know you can't fire a coach every damn year.


i think this is the difference between posters on here right now.

there is no way they will fire Miles right now. i don't see people so much taking up for Miles as much as saying why he will not be fired. and some people on here just cant tell the difference.

and most of them don't realize that the administration looks at the health and stability of the program in a much different way than they do.

Well I guess we're doing alright then. Our poll ranking is probably about where our season ticket price ranking is so it sounds like all is good.
