    We don't have millions of people watching our every move, and i'm willing to bet very few of us are making the kind of money these coaches get either.

    I think fans have a reason to be critical of coaching decisions. Many fans put big money down to support these programs & should expect results.

    No argument whatsoever with that. Critique is a huge part of the entertainment value. In a long winded kinda way, I am trying to say that when things don't seem to go one's way, immediately going to "Off With Their Heads", isn't always the most productive strategy.

    Nice try Deceks but there's a lot of people here who need instant gratification. If LSU gets beat, my life goes on in normal fashion. Apparently there are some who have no life outside of this. I can see some initial concern, criticism. questioning, etc, but, Jeez, 4 or 5 guys have been bitching about Pelini for 7 days non stop, several times a day. If anyone makes a positive post, these losers chime in with a "Yeah but Pelini sucks and has to go". It gets real old. Give it a rest, already.

    and you bitching about them means you're just as bad. I'd prefer to bitch about my g/f or wife. you're really no different yet you use a different vice. get over it.

    I enjoy it though. i prefer you continue actually.

    I merely posted a published article in which Pelini (paraphrasing) said his detractors didn't know what they were talking about. Yeah, I have a bias in that Pelini just strikes me as being a semi-pretentious red ass (or, in other words, a humorless control-intensive guy), the kind of guy who gets all bent whenever he's questioned by an "inferior".

    Bo should have just given a "no comment" when asked directly about the fans. *HE* is the one who splashed some fuel on this fire, and all I did was report it here.
