I am an LSU alumnus. I was a former LSU athlete for a short time, and I root for the tigers in all sports. Having said that, I do not let the outcomes of a collegiate football team stress me out to the point that I nearly stroke out. Why don't you all just relax and take it for what it's worth?


For the same reason all shareholders of companies care about the company's performance; I don't want to see my investment pissed away. I give to LSU athletics through TAF and every time I see a 578 number on my caller display I answer the call and give even more. And the only return I expect on that investment is a quality product on the field. I don't expect championships every year but I do expect to be competitive and in the hunt at least until the end of October. I don't think that's a lot to ask of a football coach at LSU.

My opinion should matter and that goes for every other fan out there. It doesn't matter if you give millions or just pay for tickets when you can.

You're not making an investment; you're making a donation. Dont confuse the two

Does the reasoning change though? When you give to the red cross do you expect them to spend your money on hookers and blow? NO! You expect them to put it to good use and help people. You expect them to use it for what it's intended for. I don't donate to LSU to see LSU athletics turned into a national punch line.

You must have a job and responsibilities if you do not live and die with the outcomes of LSU sports.

You care that we care, yet we don't care that you don't care. Think about that for a while

"well did it never occur to you that it might not always be national championships every year?"

I think we should at least be relevant?

I'm with you, Draconian. College football in the South is part of the fabric of society and a huge family and social occasion. Everything you listed applies to me as well, and probably millions of others.

The new argument of the pumpers now seems to be " football isn't even important, so why care?" Yet they're on a message board, so you can see their attempt at deflection.

I really don't even believe that most of the idiots that post on the rant even went to college much less LSU.
