    Where did I say don't dispute and argue? My first comment is that we should criticize and discuss. I don't care if you think JJ is the next P Manning or couldn't start for your kids peewee team. Same for any point of discussion. I LIKE dispute that makes this fun.
    What I said was that ad homonym attacks were not helpful. If someone wants to act the 5 year old and says thing like "catching Les's spunk" or derail threads then that isn't part of good speech. Most here are adults I just wish they would act that way.

    oh and to add to that: more new threads would be a welcome sight. how many new threads have there been in the last week? it would be a lot more interesting to come to this forum and see 10-15 new threads everyday than to see the same 3-5 stale threads get longer and longer (assuming the OP of the new threads brought up something interesting to discuss which I think many of you are capable of). one interesting thing about the times LSU football is less than perfect is that there is a lot more to discuss...

    Winston1 - Sorry I should have re-read your post after you pointed it out I did re-read it and you are 100% correct and everything you have stated and I truly agree with everything you wrote. I apologize for criticizing you I was wrong, I guess that is the part of the LSU education I failed in "comprehension" :eek: My bad Winston1 can you give me a pass you were spot on!!! :thumb:

    Your comment was only the most recent and BTW fit perfectly the point I was making. I don't care who is the target of the trash but that it is used rather than good argument. To continue trite and personal responses when challenged with objective comment is more in tune with a 5 year old's action rather than an adult.

    Feel free to dislike Les and express it. Back it up with sound argument. When challenged respond with points rather than slurs. Recognize that people who defend him have a POV that can be based on reason. To use terms like you did devalues the whole thread and most of all your POV.

    Finally I took the comment as an example of lazy thought and un willingness to engage in conversation rather than a accusation.
