Your jimmies may be miniscule, but it is that very attribute that projects their rustling at such a high frequency as to allow me to hear it clear over here.

So you were in 1st grade when Saban was hired?
For the record, I agree our offense needs an overhaul...just providing some perspective.

Yeah.. This is my last semester and we just happen to be looking at one of LSU's worst seasons in a long time.

Pro sports have done a great job selling themselves as "necessary".
This particular form of corporate welfare is even more disgusting than others.
The disgusting stuff to me is the obvious federal pork where a lobbyist group gets some sort of direct ROI on campaign donations.
What the NFL does is inspire the will of the people, much like a modern day Otto Von Bismarck. If people don't want it they wouldn't pay for it.

but study after study has shown that these teams don't have anywhere near the impact that most people think they do.
Maybe not economically no, except for someone like NO that can get a lot of Superbowls.
My point is these teams have a real impact psychologically. Some of it is small community's who use pro sports to seem and feel "big time." Some of it is how pro sports allow people in massive communities to find a sub community with shared values.
If feel if we didn't have pro sports, we would find other ways to have communities tokely compete with each other, maybe more violently. It is human nature to want to fight therefore prove yourself by attacking the next village over. We have moved passed that as a society but not biologically. The NFL is the psychological bridge between humanity's past and its future.

Way to early to say that. I posted in TR the other day, LSU looked dreadful against Florida in 2012, yet still ended up a play away from winning the SEC West. I think you are overreacting a tad.
ETA: for this to be LSU's worst season in a long time, they'd have to lose 5 games (including 3 blowouts). That's what happened in 2008. I really don't think this team is that bad. Like Tchoupitoulas said, you are choosing to be miserable.

You have 3 choices when cheering on LSU and we display complete ineptitude on offense:
4.) Laugh at it.
One of the MOST entertaining games I've ever seen was UT's loss to LSU for having eleventy-billion men on the field on the last play. I don't think I've ever laughed so hard for a football game.
Get back to work and the vitriol pouring forth was disgusting to me. I was thoroughly entertained. I wouldn't mind if LSU won EVERY game that way. I wouldn't mind if LSU won every game 2-0.
5.) Focus on defense.
Why are so many fans these days obsessed with offense?
There is NOTHING rational about choosing to make yourself miserable. Perhaps when you get older and you realize how little time you have left, you'll stop choosing misery. Life IS too short for it. When LSU is on offense and you start getting that miserable feeling, get up and get yourself a beer.

good post, i like to think i fall in the reasonable/positive category. that said, les is not infalable, which plenty of our fans have trouble coming to terms with. the recruiting in certain areas, or evaluations rather, have been off, he remains loyal to a fault (and he's admitted as much in the past), won't change the way we do things, etc.
basically gary crowton must have left behind the most awesome playbook ever because both stud and cam seem to love it. im sure kragthorpe would have advocated its use as well.
i heard a quote on the radio the other day from one of our media guys who is usually positiger extraordinare, talking about how he approached the TEs at fan day and asked if they thought they'd be more invovled this year. to a man, they all said "we've really just been working on blocking in practice."
OL has been a major disappointment, as has DL. les is an OL guy, and the trenches have been cruel to the team this year.
players need to develop and be put in places to succeed. im sure dj welter is a nice guy but you're routinely putting him out there and letting him get killed. missisippi state came into tiger stadium and pushed LSU around. they may win a game or two over time, but that should never, ever happen, not in that manner.
just want to see these kids put in position to have success on game day. there's been too many guys come through thru the program over the last 6/7 years that i just feel bad for (including jordan jefferson) because they never really had a chance.
this was never going to be our year but you'd like to see us use UL-M as a springboard to prepare for state, instead we're struggling to push the pile.
i still think the future is bright, but les has to adapt, recruit/evaluate better, develop these kids, and be a ruthless mother fricker on gameday.

You never saw the Three Stooges eat that stuff? It's like when you get your mouth too close to your girls underarm. It totally desiccates your mouth.

I guess I fall into the minority of positive fans who are realistic; in that regard, I am not one of those sunshine pumpers who think that LSU can do no wrong, but at the same time, I am not calling for Les' job if we don't win by 4 TDs. Overall, I'm satisfied with myself as a fan.
