that's the difference between fair-weather fans and good ones. i support my tigers regardless of coach or record. bitching solves nothing because u guys really have no clue what's going on behind the scenes. if you dont know, then you presume nothing is going on. u guys act like spoiled children.

There is no "product" as far as I am concerned. I support LSU because I am a fan, not a customer. Neither LSU nor Les Miles owes me anything. I am a fan because I choose to be. Complaining about them would be like complaining about my favorite band when I go to see them in concert. If I don't like the way they perform, I'll go see some other band.

If you don't like the way LSU football performs, choose another team. If your favorite college football team is nothing more than a "product" to you, then why would you bother remaining with a team when there are better products out there?

You're acting like someone who keeps drinking Pepsi and constantly bitching about how it should taste more like Coke. If you prefer the product Coke puts out, then switch to Coke.

You have no idea what I know but even accepting your statement at face value, it would take a fool not to see the symptons of what's "going on".

As for how each defines what's acceptable, complacency's a bad thing dood.

LMAO...another internet insider

"what's going"? like Saban and Meyer last year?

I don't like the 5 losses either but bitching non-stop solves nothing. do us a favor and don't go to the games if the team doesn't live up to your expectations. who's beeing "complacent" when a change could come after the bowl game? you have no idea what Les is going to do and he certainly doesn't have to tell you.

So anyone who disagrees with y'all's opinions should just shut up and go away in the spirit of "free speech"?

Wow.

I certainly won't and tell Aleva to stop sending emails begging.

Like my HS coach said, "They say winning isn't everything...see how many people come to watch a bunch of losers."

Exactly my point (which apparently flew right over your head, btw). I have no more right to tell him that than he does to tell others to find another team.

We get to talk to Les tomorrow, there's the official bowl presser with the bowl president in town tomorrow afternoon. I doubt we learn much, but it's our first chance to talk to Les on camera since Arky.

Of course we'll have some of it for you tomorrow.

I don't know who "him" is since I wrote both posts, but my point is that his opinion disagrees with mine as much as mine disagrees with his. But, because you agree with his, you insist that I be the one to leave/shut up/not express my opinion.

I never told anybody not to express their opinions, whether I agree with them or not. I simply expressed my opinion that people who choose to be a fan of something and then obsessively bitch and maintain as high a state of negativity as possible are foolishly self-destructive. A rational, reasonable person who found themselves in a situation where their feelings were as negative towards something as the feelings the original poster expressed towards LSU football would simply choose something else of which to become a "fan." Why this should be taken by someone else as an affront is mystifying, since I never even said his opinion should not be expressed. In fact, I was suggesting that he not only express that opinion, but actually act upon it.
