" watch as innocent man go down?"

What innocent man went down? JJ is back up and playing football. That is how this worked out for the innocent man. Sometimes you just gotta know when to trust that things will turn out how they are supposed to. I had to remain hopeful that this case would be settled by those people who knew how to do their job, and as the case went forth I followed it closely incase drastic turns were considered, but they could have always been worse, and this kept me sane throughout the whole deal and as I trusted, it was settled.
One day. You might realize the opportunities that are out there for you to become educated regarding life. Until then, I will just continue to laugh your words.

I disagree. I don't think turning a blind eye to someones behavior because they play football is correct. I'm not really talking about this situation but if their personal choice is to rob, steal and rape do I have to support them to be a fan?


no wise one, but you should support them as part of the team that you support during the football game. It's not that difficult.

And no I am not a student athlete at LSU I was not scared. I just knew the circumstances and word of mouth should not decide the validity of such a situation.
quote:

I'm sorry but personal choice is a big part of having the honor of wearing a Tiger uniform. Dont make sorry arse excuses for them. Their choice affects themselves, their team mates coaches, fans, and LSU. I am a true fan, but dont like this behavior. Two of these players were getting alot of national exposure that was good for them and the university. They need to represent Tiger nation first.





I completely agree with you, all I am trying to say is that for whatever reason or however the situation pans out and the players are allowed to play, we need to support them on the field. It's kind of like fantasy football, in that if your quarterback is playing against your home team (ex: the Saints) and the saints' defensive line is killing your fantasy team's QB and therefore, you are not earning any points for your fantasy team, this often causes lots of animosity toward your home team's defensive line, even though you should be supportive and glad that your home team is doing so well, despite the fact that their effort is diminishing your chances for your own personal advances in your fantasy league. WHen it comes to being a fan of your favorite team, all the personal feelings are set aside once that play clock starts.

Yeah dude. You are full of it. Don't act like you were there.



Was this extremely broad generalization directed towards me? because I was there at Shady's when everything happened. Why didn't I give a witness' statement? It's pretty simple: Nearly everyone there that night was intoxicated, and I myself had drank that night, and although I remember everything that I saw or "thought i saw," I was not about to put God's will in my own hands.

What these guys have done in my opinion is far worse than what Jefferson did. We don't know the circumstances of the bar fight and JJ could have been at the wrong place at the wrong time. These guys are selfish and Coach should make a huge example. It would suit me fine to suspend them for Alabama too. We don't need selfish idiots on our team. I want to win and win the right way.



This is exactly correct. JJ was at the wrong place at the wrong time, I was there. This new development, is worse b/c as it is new news to us, it isn't a surprise to the players who were doing the drugs for however long.

Learn what it means to be a true fan. It's about supporting your team when they are on the field, regardless of what personal choices they make.

No.



By supporting them on the field, I mean that you should support there talent for playing football. This does not mean that you can't disagree with the personal choices that they choose to make off of the field, b/c clearly, people do disagree.
quote:

I wonder if these three were out with JJ the night the trouble went down and curfews were broken?



Good job bringing that up... The fight that initially drug Jordan Jefferson into the mess in Shady's parking lot, was the fight between WARE and MATHIEU. Jordan got involved when he saw his teammates fighting and he was trying to break the two up, and settle them down. This should put some things into perspective for all of you JJ haters and all of you who can't understand why JJ would have gotten into a fight, if he in fact did. The "fight" would be an action on impulse based on the circumstances in that present moment. Whereas, smoking weed, is generally a repeated action, and is usually acted on or done with prior intentions. This should illustrate the means of right and wrong based on the intent of both situations. What can all of you "honeybadger" fans say to that? All of you "fans" who "booed" JJ when he was reinstated to the team and then put into the game that very week before scoring a touchdown, will all of you be "booing" Mathieu and Ware when or if they step onto the field next? <--- And you call yourselves "Tiger Fans?" Learn what it means to be a true fan. It's about supporting your team when they are on the field, regardless of what personal choices they make. If you don't agree with those choices, that's all you, but if you want to call yourself a fan, then set that beef aside, and support your team in the game they play.
it is exactly that though, it IS as RIDICULOUS as it sounds! Breaking Curfew is comparable with not fulfilling an appropriate rep of pull-ups. It's something we all do, just hope nobody sees us slacking.
quote:

regardless of how this falls out don't forget that JJ was suppose to be the leader of this team, and he did not display the maturity to lead his team mates to not break curfew which led to the incident


curfew, HA! if curfew was such a serious rule, then there would be no tradition of the team going out the night before their last practice of two-a-days. The curfew is not something to take seriously in this.
For those of you who do not actually know Jordan Jefferson, use your words wisely. I was there during the "altercation" outside Shady's, and Jordan was the only football player who tried stopping the fight going on between two of his teammates (I won't give their names). I remember thinking in that moment how proud I was to see our quarterback acting on his role as a leader, trying to set an example. I have not given a witness's statement basically because I have my on legal issues for myself to deal with, along with the reality that the majority of people, excluding a few including Jordan, were drunk. I remember the night clearly, but had been drinking, and after learning my lesson via DWI, I know not to trust my judgement nor anyone else that has been drinking. In this case, there was no legitimate information that would allow for justice to be served. I did not see Jordan in the big huddle crowding Lowery on the ground, but there were sooo many randoms literally jumping in, and so I cannot say that I am sure. If he did actually carry out these allegations, then I believe that he had motive for defense of his teammates, because as a human being, our first instinct in those situations is to protect, and all the bar fights that go unheard of in BR, should get you haters thinking about using your words next time. Congratulations Andrew Lowery for seriously jeopardizing a talented and humble LSU quarterback in his senior year, when all the pressure that most of us never have to experience, was set aside momentarily to possibly defend his effort. For those of you that would consider your TD-account to be your voice for media, think about it as if your biological name somehow replaced your TD-username, and every single post that you had ever written, good or bad, would be out there in the open to be criticized, ridiculed, and degraded by every single member of TD... Would you wish you could take back some of the posts? Probably some and some not, but the point is that, you don't have your name out there for everyone to see, nor do you have a face for everyone to follow, and Jordan has a name and face that we ALL know. If you have any morals, outside the legal system, what would you have done in that moment? What were your fundamental thoughts when acting in a moment, would you be thinking in terms of your role as the starting senior LSU QB, or would you think instinctively in which you were raised a human being, to protect yourself and your family with loyalty regardless of some risks that your actions might bring on. Jordan deserves the support of his team, whether he gets to play or not, he belongs in the #9 jersey at the heart of tiger stadium with support that each of us would want from our family if we were faced with such a case. So before you judge the names, consider the guy and how he has no control over his story, a story that the country is tampering with.

Seriously man, why would you pull out that kind of card? This is the BEST SEC team's season at stake here....
