No, I think RJF's statements weren't helpful. Obviously, yes, he should do exactly that - hit the QB as hard as possible when he can get a clean hit. But what good does it do to go around talking about it? Zero.

But yes, I do agree the media blew it out of proportion. When what's her name on the field was talking about it before the game and she said "but he's out with a groin injury" she almost laughed. Those pricks got a kick out of it.

I think the Hat will handle it. We won't here any more bullshite like this in the media for the rest of the season.

"Kick Their arse" is hardly the same thing. "Kick Their arse" has been used to encourage people to win games for years.

On the other hand, sucking cock refers to the insertion of a penis into a woman - or man's - mouth.

I'm not a parent, but if I was, I think I'd much rather explain what it means to "kick arse" instead of what it means to "suck cock" to my kid.

If you can't see the difference between those two, then I don't know what to tell you.

+1 on stopping those kind of student section chants. Not just because they are classless, but because they are so fricking stupid and childish and really don't say much for the average intelligence of either our students or our entire fanbase. When you yell "YOU SUCK, COCKS," the opposing team and fans don't think you're clever or funny, and everyone just thinks you're pretty much a mindless moron.

I'm glad you agree, I was starting to think I was the only one left that supports common decency in public. And I don't mean "sportsmanship" I'm completely for the players exercising good sportsmanship - but the fans don't have to nor should they. But there are still limits. You can't just say anything - unless you really don't mind the world thinking you're an arse.

If they want to yell "YOU SUCK COCK" they should do it to the SC fans faces on an individual basis before and after the game instead of from the safety of a mob.

Weak what? I'm not debating you dude. What's the supposed debate topic you have in your head? "Are people criticizing trash talking too much?"

31.

Some people might have a problem bringing their young children to a game where an entire section of students yells "YOU SUCK COCK" in unison. Its one thing to get drunk and yell and talk trash, but that's taking it too far. Maybe its just me, but I think we should make the games a place where a family can bring their kids, so their kids can grow up to be Tiger fans.

Personally if I had kids I would take them no matter what the student section was yelling - but others might be turned off by it but the TigerNation needs their kids, too.

Not to mention simple class and self respect. "YOU SUCK, COCK" - how retarded of a cheer is that?

Yeah, this lamenting of smack talk is weathered. It's not like the media is exploiting it and jumping all over it. Everyone needs to gtf over it.

The media was practically laughing at RJF, before the game, for trash talking about Tebow and then being out with a groin injury.

I dunno guys, you don't think she could have at least waited until we were WINNING THE GAME to put that sign up?

How much you think we were losing by when that sign came up? 10? 20? 30?

Could we see the Capital One become the Citrus Bowl again? Or the Chik Fil A bowl become the Peach Bowl again?

Just lookin' for positives in this economic mess.

That depends, will Capital One be bankrupt by the time the game is played?

We will beat Bama. We'll probably lose another game but it won't be bama. Maybe UGA or Ole Miss or even Arkansas. But not bama.

Then we go to the SECCG and play Florida and get revenge and go to the Sugar Bowl.

Finished? :lol: We're just getting started.

People forget - the 2006 season started off 4-2.
And in 2006 we hadn't really beaten anyone at that point either, we had beaten ULL, Arizona, Tulane, and State by that point, with losses to Florida and Auburn.

The 2005 season started 1-1.

I think its the point total that has folks the most concerned. But with a gambler like Les for a coach - that's bound to happen from time to time. A more conservative coach may have lost that game 34-21 or 41-21. I seriously think Les thought we had a shot at winning until our last failed 4th down attempt - he just does not give up.

I think some of the players were taking our ability to come back for granted though. Trash talking when you're down by 20 is just ridiculous.

The Les Mile's Guarantee....

Posted by R2D2Tiger on 10/13/08 at 1:10 am

... is that by the time the season is done and over with you will be proud with what has been accomplished.

It has happened every year since he's been our coach.

In 05 we had painful losses to Tennessee and to UGA. Then we decimated the storied Miami football program in the last ever Peach Bowl. That made the season a good one.

In 06, we loss in Auburn and Florida, yet wound up in the Sugar Bowl and decimated the storied Notre Dame football program.

In 07 - well, we all know how that went. Decimated the storied Ohio State football program.

'08 - who will be our next bowl victim? Maybe we'll wind up in a sub-BCS bowl against a good opponent and blow them out the water. Maybe we'll play Florida in the SECCG, win, and get to play Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl (ha ha ha), maybe, just maybe....

all I'm saying is this season, like all, comes with the Hat Guarantee. You will be happy by the end ... but the ride will be bumpy as hell!
