I think the reason for all the negatism is because LSU fans are so passionate about LSU football. We as fans are never satisfied, kinda like the players and coaches. Once you are satisfied it is all downhill from there.
It's a message board, for heaven's sake. If one makes controversial posts, then there is going to be some controversy and some negative responses. Why else would one post it? You don't like people pumping sunshine up your chute. That's fine. Others don't like people dumping gloom and doom on the parade, and that's fine too. There ain't a lot of censorship on Tigerforums and a healthy balance between negative and positive opinion is a good thing. It would be boring as hell otherwise.
With a very talented yet younger team in 2006, one that has its toughest tests on the road, all of us will find out right quick just how good a coach LM really is. Simple as that, really. I can honestly say that, in the days/first couple of weeks following Katrina, I did not think a 10-1 regular season was possible (I think I went with 8-3, if I remember correctly). Deep down, many of the current naysaysers didn't think it was possible, either, but sniffing the BCS top 3 for a few weeks in November caused many to have selective anmesia about their early October prognostications.
Whoa dude, STFU for a second. The hurricanes forced us to play non-stop this season. In the SEC, no less. This team is tired. Blame it on the hurricanes, the SEC, FEMA or Prez Bush, I don't care, but it was obvious. And all of the people bitching about having to play Miami... I don't know WHAT to say... It's Miami man... It can't get much better than that! Of course WVU is a better team and all, and would probably drum us, but we can gain A LOT more with a victory over Miami. Okay KTeam, you can start posting weird nonsense again! :geauxtige
Some people prefer to be miserable in their hobbies. That's OK, I suppose, just isn't right for me. I guess some others like to be a tough guy on the Internet, and enjoy that sort of thing. Again, not right for me, but that's alright. And others are simply limited by their own intelligence, and prefer to display it frequently.
