    I do not mind reading about problems with play calling, personell issues, game management, schemes, etc. All of that is great conversation. However, all of this crap about Miles must go and threads about Saban, etc is absolutely crazy. (Personally I think they should be removed from the site, but that's not my decision) Our coach is OUR coach and we should have the respect to support him. We are FREAKING 4-0 at this moment and there are people on this board saying Miles has to go. We have a young QB, and alot of great young players, the future is bright, but that is not even the point of this thread, the point is RESPECT our coach. Les Miles has at the very least earned that from Tiger fans. He has handled our program with class and dignity....try to do the same.

    For all of you that have forgotten, Saban lost plenty of games that we should have won based on talent, then left us for greener pastures.

    If we beat UGA, all of you personally bashing Miles need to go away. Those that are just unhappy with performance that is different, and I understand.

    Sincerely,
    Frustrated Tiger Fan.

    I like Miles.

    He does seem a bit odd this season, but I feel it is because this team is in its baby stages. I mean, THIS IS 100% HIS TEAM now. His players and such, so i think he is also trying to figure some things out..

    When push comes to shove, miles will respond..

    As bad as things were last year, the bama game gave all of us fans ONE BADAZZ game to live on...

    Some might hate him for givin Lee the chance in the OT, but in the end, the players have to step up. And he deff lets the players play...

    At some point our O line will know that on 2nd and 2 They better make a hole..

    I've got boat loads of respect for him. Everyone peaks eventually though.. and perhaps he was at his best during 2005-2007.

    We don't want to censor people just for having unpopular opinions. Discussion is what we are here for. You can always use the ignore list to keep an personally annoying poster off your screen.

    On the other hand, we sometimes get a few that are only trying to stir up trouble on the board. Use the report post button to alert the mods if you think someone has crossed the line into insults, personal attacks, and overt troublemaking.

    No one wants to get into trying to protect everyone's feelings on an anonymous internet forum, though, it's a bottomless pit. If someone wants to make a fool of himself without breaking the rules, he's free to do so. And you are also free to get in his face and refute him when he's wrong. Or simply ignore him, if he's crazy.

    In fact, simply ignoring some of these wild and crazy posters is the best way for their threads to quickly drop off the page and be forgotten.

    I never said anyone should be banned, however I think "Fire our head coach" at 4-0 is something that could be censored. I see the point of free speech and understand you cannot control everyone. My point was that it is a complete lack of respect to a man that has done a great job for us. He deserves more respect than he is getting.

    I just told someone at work that we're 4-0 #4 in the nation and that some of our fans are calling for his replacement and he didn't respond and had the strangest look on his face.

    Nope. People didn't like him then, either. But you were still in high school then and probably didn't have the time to be on the boards like you are now.

    Thanks for starting this thread Aztiger.

    Everyone needs to relax, support the coaches and the players.

    We have a tough stretch of games coming up.

    Les Miles loves LSU and has done an excellent job representing us.

    Now let's represent OURSELVES with some class.

    So if he was in high school then and now has time, he must not be in college. It all adds up. Thanks Miss Stacy.
