    I agree fully his actions do not shed the best light on LSU but for people who do not follow the ongoings with the program in the off season and who live in different parts of the country could care less what petty problems this guy has been causing for us, now when the season starts and they turn on the tube to watch a good football game and have to hear the home crowd chanting profanity now that definitely is no shedding a good light on the program or the whole LSU.

    John,

    Thanks for this. Perhaps you should send a letter to the editor pointing out as much. They might not print it, but who knows -- might be worth a shot.

    its a hypothetical. getting in trouble at minimal 5 times is more than enough reason to dismiss a player regardless the reason much less the amount of occurrences in just a few weeks.

    and the student argument is not even worth addressing.

    I think the further geographicaly and opponent wise, you go, that may be true, but if you think non-LSU fans don't know or care, check out some rival SEC forums.

    There's always a few LSU threads on Tidefans and Tidesports.com. and there's a 14 page one on Ryan Perrilloux running right now.

    We're a national program now, and other fans are watching.

    you are underestimating the fandom of college football fans in the south and especially the coaches that recruit against us.

    I may be wrong but I think the majority of the people in the country who care about this issue are fans of other programs who will respond in a negative way to fan the flames, who want him off the team to give them the upper hand when they play us and who want anything bad that can happen to happen to us or any of their other competition and the ones fanning the flames the most seem to generally have had or having worse situations than us.

    I understand the passion we have for college football in the south but the point I am trying to get it is when you are decked out in LSU attire and you are on national TV acting a fool supporting your team there are right and wrong ways to do it you can be passionate and not come off as being an embarrassment.

    I'll admit I don't check out rival SEC forums, and maybe that is something I should start doing. Perhaps I'll go search for this 14-page thread of RP by an SEC-rival. Like many, I have a sadistic side, unfortunately, and that might be fun (in a thuggish way) to flirt with that when it comes to trashing rivals on their own sites.

    But still, I'm not sure if I really want to care what an SEC rival thinks about us. I'm sure I could find Islamic discussion groups that get me all riled up about being proud to be an American.

    Thanks, I had been working on that technique awhile.
