Rebel- I get that a lot. But why do we inflict such harsh penalties for what we did (admission/correction, I did) while playing ball. Shouldn't the test be whether (1) the young man is hurting himself) and (2) is there a competitive advantage? But I am stupid, and I'll be the first to agree.

Not recruiting quality kids in the first place...

Coaches, Miles included, recruit some "Questionable kids" on the grounds that maybe they can help learn and turn themselves around, like HB. Kid grew up/played in tough part of N.O., but had the grades. What he did most of us over 45 did and thought nothing of it. Now, everything is a federal crime. I'd rather his violations than those of sexual nature/violent nature, etc., you get the picture. (E.g., getting drink and grabbing a young co-ed's tits. What's worse? It's about winning and the pressure we put on the coaches. Can you imagine if we had let Cecil Collins get away? I'll be crucified for this, but No.l 7 DOES NOT have a crucifiable drug problem. He has to learn that we're not in 1975 anymore, and a positive piss test for wacky weed is in this day and age a step down the path to 6 mos. in jail, instead of what used to be the same as a speeding ticket and a $35.00 fine. But, being an LSU player, all these 11 year olds whose old man payed $125.00 having a higher standard. Anyone who pays $125.00 so his kid can have a No. 7 "HB" jersey is an idiot, ab initio (to begin with).We'll find a new star, and HB, who gave us such thrills (and the pride of your school having a player receive) an invite to New York) will be forgotten). If I offend those attendees of the Universal Apostlic Baptist and Don't live Like I do, But Like I say, I simply apologize for any offense. (By the way, please don't vote for anyone who will raise my taxes $1.00 per year so maybe we can try education with these kids). Sorry again if I offend.

Miles is lying. I know the trainer at LSU personally. Mett was not being treated in December or January for any injury.

Birdman --- during the ESPY's, when they showed Alabama's highlites against us (and there was no reciprocity; we had NO highlites), there was audible snickering in the crowd. But again, at this point, who gives a rat's arse; we were dominated like no other team in the history of college championship game football. And being on vacation, I have nothing better than do than yank the same tired chains on the forum who actually believed that at 9-0 we were still in the game.....uh, no, we weren't, it was over, and I have absolutely refused nor will I everv watch the replay, or more accurately, the re-massacre. And this year don't matter....it will take decades, if ever, to get that scrimmage out of my mind.

when the game really counted, as big an LSU fan as I am, I kinda believe we would have done better offensively with ULL's coach calling our offense than we did with Miles. If Florida sucks again this year, State's coach goes to Gainesville, and Hudspeth goes to the Bulldogs. I watched the NO Bowl; sure, it was SD State, but the Cajun QB from Lutcher was beter than either one of our two. Their tight end (Green)will start this year for cx776-oijjj..

As opposed to beating off half-furiously? When I was putting the wood to your girlfriend she said she had opened the shower curtain one day, and there you were, half-arse beating off. She asked you what you were doing: "Why, I', doing your job, bitch.!"

dum?

Why? The question was the greatest LSU Tiger ever, not the best pro post-LSU. Once a player makes the pros, his contributions to LSU on the field/court/diamond, etc are over. Further, the question posed looks at the athlete at his stage of development while at LSU, not after. Pistol Pete Maravich. Anyone who names anyone else never saw him play, and that's not to be rude, dude, but to simply state a fact. 44 a game...with 3 point line, the best estimate I've seen is 54.6 game...FOR THREE YEARS!!!!!

Actually, we heard their coach (with two outs) telling his players to "stay off the mound". I wes three rows up, and trust me, it wasn't very loud in the Box II tonite and very easy to hear talking in their dugout.

I thought that showed a little class. Maybe it don't matter, but it would've been like celebrating on the insignia on the middle of the football field.

T1014 - you stole my dog!!!!! :bow:
