with labelling people "Negatigers" or "Positigers"? It's just weird all the sudden.

What's weird is people that call themselves negatigers.

I have no idea. But I absolutely detest it. Why spend your time ripping on fellow Tiger fans? Anyone using either term is a moron or a jackass. Probably both.

it's like the Sunnis and Shiites.
It's not the BIG things.
It's the small differences that make us want to plant roadside bombs outside each others homes.

It is something cool people came up with to bicker about and detract any REAL discussion on the board. Instead of helping the problem people just start threads bitching about the other group, never adding anything to a real discussion.

It's a point of pride that I've been called both recently.

Like someone else said, it seems there are more threads about fans than about the team. I don't think I've seen that here before.

Winner. People spend too much time worrying about what camp everyone is in and don't talk about the team. All it does is water down the quality of the board.

They're becoming Bad Cat. He makes his living by bash posting LSU fans.

I never thought posters would follow that idiots lead.

I prefer the term Crititiger to Negatiger. Personally, I am a Realitiger...

It also ignores the actual arguments. I've made some negative points (deep snapper, the offensive line, gutless decision to kick, Williams never hitting a hole) and I've made some positive ones (improvement of JJ, the defense making a big stand, anything to do with Peterson, survive and advance). But putting myself into either camp makes no sense. I have the capacity to hold negative and positive opinions towards this team. People who cannot are either lazy or literally retarded.

Because there are a lot of really stupid people who post on this board. They have no life, other than calling other posters names like negatiger, positiger, germans, and other ridiculous old worn out crap. They probably sit at their computer 24-7, waiting to pounce on someone. I say, ask or say what you wish, and just ignore those people.

I agree. It is getting out of hand. I consider myself to be realistic.

Great post.....I don't get why praising the team for good play is any different than discussing areas we need improvement on??

I see it much the same as being a "my glass is 1/2 full" personality or "my glass is 1/2 empty" personality.

I think if we are honest with ourselves, we each know into which group we fall.

Anyway, it's all good as long as we all want the same thing...an LSU win.

Most people just can't believe that other people have the AUDACITY to diagree with them.

Imagine the lunacy of saying all positive posts are legitimate and all negative posts are illigitimate.

If your post contains THE TRUTH or a reasonable facsimile thereof, it is a worthwhile post, regardless of who it offends.

That is what everyone truly wants, but fans are simply frustrated from what we have seen on the field. No question we have To 5 talent on this team, but it doesn't appear that talent is being properly utilized, & that gets back to coaching, although the Off. Line has been MIA since the season started. But even that can be blamed on Miles, as he talked them up to be so good this year & that has been a fail...
