the Pete Carroll type that runs up the score in any game he can?



I have no problems with this especially if they put in second string offense and they keep scoring. I am a big believer in playing back up quarterbacks when you can and allowing them to run a full package offense. If a team can't stop your second string offense then they shouldn't be on the field with you anyway.

As far as coaches talking shite, I don't have a problem with small jabs but they are supposed to be above all of that crying and bitching and shite talking. Someone like Dabo can eat a dick with all his cry baby antics and all his jabs come off as just being a jealous, angry little brother.

I'd like to avoid penalties if possible, but the last thing I want to watch is a team with no personality.

I love watching genuine on-field hate in the WLOCP. It makes the game more personal. I think refs are too quick to flag that stuff. I think players should be allowed to celebrate within reason.

I don't really give a frick what the coaches do or say.

I don't have a problem with players smack talking on the field, so long as it doesn't result in a penalty. Players should never talk smack publicly to the media. Coaches should not talk smack period IMO. It doesn't mean I don't get a kick out of Miles's little comments here and there.

when it is LSU id like to see the swag of the 80s U and the attitude of jimmy johnson. I wish Les would put in back ups and still put the foot on the gas. when it is other teams I love to call them out for being annoying shitbags

As a player I used to love guys who would try and talk shite. It would give me extra motivation to beat their arse. If I were a coach I wouldn't put up with it for a second from my players.
So as a fan I am totally againt it. Not against showing some emotion, just not ever dirceting it towards the other team. It is childish imo, and I have never liked Spurrier doing it either.
