re: Fire Muschamp! A modest proposal.....

Posted by bayuborn on 11/12/12 at 10:27 am
N.O. via West Coast: "Not a lot of literary types in here, I guess ..." You got that right! For everyone else: No, I don't want Muschamp to come to LSU. No I don't want Del Rio or Gruden, nor do I think they are leaving their jobs. Google "A Modest Proposal" and learn something. This rant w...
Just trying to make a point here. All those arguments I made against Muschamp are the same old tired arguments against Miles. ...

Fire Muschamp! A modest proposal.....

Posted by bayuborn on 11/12/12 at 8:27 am
If Muschamp was truly a good coach, his team would have been ready, up and amped for La. Lafayette, hanging 60 on them. But just goes to show that Muschamp's not a good coach. Now the Gators have lost their starting QB, who should have been resting during this game against a nothing team. And the wa...

Interesting article on why it's safer to be daring and not conservative when calling plays: http://www.thepostgame.com/blog/men-action/201211/how-oregon-coach-chip-kelly-can-spark-moneyball-revolution-nfl Perception being what it is (almost never accurate in terms of reality), I love the theory t...
And yet, we make plays again and again and we win again and again. Which all says that you have no clue....
I think we need to consider some other points on this (and a few others from this thread): 1) quit tying this to "a Les Miles-coached team" as if it's all his fault. He admits some blame, but he's not actually playing. And the same stuff happens to all college coaches and teams, even the king of ...
Yeah, you're frigging brilliant. She's the 4th fastest hurdles runner in the world...she's such a loser! :rolleyes:...

In the end, Amen! Nothing but The Golden Band from Tigerland works for me....

You all have missed the ABSOLUTELY coolest thing to see...a must do. About 3:30, the band streams out to the areas around the Greek Theater. On the field between the Greek Theater and the Pentagon Dorm, the Drum Corp performs for about 20 mins. Unbelievably cool, precise, talented, different....

Tell me the goal of the piped-in music and I'll give you a list. If it's to excite a drunken crowd, then I guess we're doing ok with the same old stadium rock LSU has now decided to use. If it's to get the players excited...how about some thug rap or EMO rock written by and for 20 year olds to mak...
Spec1 has it right when he discusses the need to decide on the type of offense we want. How many Super Bowl winners have a running QB? How many national champs have a JJ type QB. Coaches all too often get seduced by the physical ability and talent, but none of them (except for maybe Steve Young) can...
In addition to more piped in music, can we get uniforms like Oregon?...
[quote]No one suggested this stupid forum matters...but you assume that there are no influential players here or who share these feelings. [/quote] My boss is on the board of supervisors, can't wait to tell him how the overwhelming majority on this rant thread LOVE the piped in music. And that yo...
[quote]You do realize that "Frank Wicks" is in ONE sentence and the rest of the introduction if for the GBFTL don't you? It freaking end with "The Golden Band from Tigerland."[/quote] Yes, I do. And so do my friends who played in the band (JUMAS Lives). Doesn't change my opinion. Reimagine the an...
Elleshoe, it's not the announcement but the timing of the Wicks announcement that bugs me. Heck they can sing a song to the dude for all I care, just don't announce it while they are playing the Pre-Game drum lead in. It's not a radio station where they hit the mark or whatever DJs call it these d...
It's the Rolling Stones not the Cars. But you're overall point isn't off the mark. They need to work out the timing... Hey, wasn't the line "Chance of rain. Never." started with the 1908 undefeated team. Now that's tradition baby!...
I thought someone would like that comment....
[quote]TS has been dead this year. Aside from the blocked kick against Bama, the place has been pretty average.[/quote] I hate to say it, but it's true. The crowd was not a traditional TS crowd. :snoozer:...
[quote]Why don't they pipe in the appropriate cheer the band would play over the speakers while the band is setting up for halftime and at the start of the third quarter. [/quote] You know, we are capable of being more imaginative than doing what everyone else does. I really don't have a problem...
Having been to a few other stadiums, and to Tiger games for 30+ years, our band is pretty active. Then TGBFTL is playing consistently for 3-4 hours....I don't have a problem with 6 songs being piped in for 30 seconds at a time....
