Don't try jumping back on board now!!!!!

I'd fall back in the shadows, too. Have a good day though - for real.

 

I don't ever recall anyone saying Crowton or Miles was a genius.

 

nice :hihi:

great first post afta 8 years :thumb:

 

me either but I got blamed. Kinda hurt my feelings.

 

dude, it's so apparent that, at heart, you want LSU lose every game they play because you've devoted so much energy to Les Miles hate. It's sad that you've pinned so much of your self-worth to being right in the "Les Miles - idiot or not?" argument that you are missing a pretty fun football season and a damn strong & likable football team with a good shot at SEC glory. Now the only way you can try to reclaim that self worth is to cry about a mismanaged clock on a 2 minute drill that ends in a game-winning TD in Gainesville, as tough a place to win as there is in the country. (Don't ask Alabama about that, by the way, they wouldn't know. They only have to play there once a decade.) But i digress.

You should find a new school to root for. Pick the one that plays perfect, mistake-free, football games every week. How bout that Boise and that TCU, huh? They are just awesome, they blow everybody out, every week. i think that's what you need. The SEC is for fans who have the stomach for some ups, some downs, and some dog fights. Holding the trophy at the end of the season can't be as much fun, if you cried and whined like a lil girl after every win. can it?

 

You are awfully defensive. Everyone is out of step except you right?

 

Not Buying My Bandwagon Ticket Just Yet

The moderators sent me an email wondering where I've been, so I just showed up, and think I'll chip in my 2 cents here. (Which is probably what my opinion is worth?)

Seeing LSU at 6-0 is a hoot, no question about that. And one can't complain about being bored, if you're watching LSU play football. Compare Les Miles's people to watching that Giants/Bears thing last week, and I'll take Les Miles every time.

But jump on the bandwagon? Please. The man is driving me nuts. That thing at the end against Tennessee was the worst thing I've ever seen on a football field, at that level. But it's not really the clock managing that gets me crazy. It's the constant, nonsensical mistakes that the Tigers make, at the worst moments, that make watching them so excruciating, at times. And it's becoming predictable.

When Carolina had their hands on a TD pass twice in the last 30 seconds that would have won the game, after being down 30-10 in the fourth quarter, you had to wonder what you were watching.
When LSU was up 17-0 on W. Va. with 5 minutes left in the 1st. half, I looked at my wife and told her that this is precisely the spot where LSU will screw the pooch and make an easy game into one that is decided in the last 2 minutes. And that's just what they did. LSU should have been up at least 24-7 on the Gators, but dumb turnovers and poor decisions kept Florida around. It's relentless and disturbing. And yet, somehow they won all those games. How much luck does Coach possess?

I really like Les Miles. He is a great motivator, and very well spoken. The "hat" thing tickles me. His players will evidently run through a wall for him. But are they ever going to put it together and play smartly? Isn't the coaching responsible for the lack of discipline you see on the field? And forgive me for saying this, but it's how I see things: would a Nick Saban coached team ever have found itself in the position that the Tigers were in against Tenn. Carolina or WVU, with the same players? Got my doubts about that one.

I hope that Miles gets it together and coaches in Baton Rouge for the next 20 years. And I hope he gives me one break this season, and beats Auburn 50-3, next week. I'm not sure how much more I can take, waiting for the weekly train wreck.

How about a boring game one time, Coach?

 

I completely agree - but there's only one "annoying mfer" in this thread as far as I can tell.

Did I miss someone, or is not just SIU?

 

Don't let the door hit you in the ass.
