Not a fan of the brash behavior against Rice. Against LSU it will be a good thing, tho.

I am a fan of JFF. He needs to mature for his own sake, but I can at least respect Manziel's confidence, and you can tell he makes his teammates so much better, mainly because of his passion and enthusiasm.

A lot of these Aggie fans sound like JMs parents, blame the media, blame outside sources but just don't put the blame on Johnny himself. Serious question guys, when will y'all hold JM responsible for his own actions(unlike his parents)? You do realize people outside of College Station despise him because of his actions, don't you? I personally don't have anything but praise for Aggie Nation but as for JM, I cannot stand the little prick.
Son, don't put pictures of you and LeBron on Instagram! That's just ridiculous behavior! Now let me wait for the LSU fan base to admonish Jordan Jefferson for bashing a Marines's face in, and the rationality of how that is somehow not as bad as taking a picture with LeBron. Jesus Christ, the swamp kittens are getting self righteous. And is the collective coon arse nation really going to get on him for underage drinking? Seriously? How can a soul from Louisiana get on a fricking 20 year old for drinking. Y'all are ridiculous.

JM's actions during the Rice game, taken separately, were not a big deal. Happens all the time in every college & pro football game nowadays, sad to say. But when you put them in context with all the other shite he brought on himself, with his getting a get out of jail free card only the wk before, he should have walked on that field, played the way he's famous for playing, and STFU. Instead, all he did by those acts was to feed the fire. Which speaks to his arrogance & selfishness. Support him as a fellow aggie? Mabe. But to give him a standing ovation when he entered the game? Sorry, I don't understand that.

Confused by a standing ovation when he enters the game?
First game on campus after winning the Heisman trophy? Check.
First game of the season after the kid gets pounded in the media all summer? Check.
You may prefer the fans to turn their back on their hero, but that is not reality. They might get annoyed by some behavior, but unless he committed some heinous crime, most fans are going to support their guy through criticism.
Not difficult to understand if you look at it objectively.

And there it is again.
Please cite the "shite."
Specifics--not unfounded accusations.

When we moved to the SEC we were told "win at all cost, that is the SEC motto"
So yeah hes a spoiled douchebag, but hes a spoiled douchebag that led us to 11-2 in the first year of the SEC. Which is pretty damn impressive if you ask me.
Im pretty sure at least 7 or 8 other SEC coaches (possibly more) would take Manziel and all his drama if he continues to produce like he has.
Yeah hes put us fans in an awkward position but until he starts losing games or continues to get stupid 15 yard penalties (regardless if the game was already out of reach) will get to me.
So far before Saturday nothing he has done directly effected the result of a game. That taunting penalty had me shaking my head though. Giving 15 yards to a good team could be the difference in a W and a L in the SEC.
But im riding the wagon until hes no longer wearing an Aggie jersey.

As an Aggie, I can honestly say yes. I would like him.
All of this crap about being an ambassador, etc is stupid. He's a football player. And a kickass one. That is all I expect him to be.
If he was actually breaking laws and stuff, no. But all of you people getting your panties in a wad because the guys talks shite to opponents need to get a life.
I don't hear any hate coming from his teammates or even from guys that played against him.

Nahhhh far from a fan. I respect his attitude on the field but hey at the end of the day as long as we kick Bama a** I could care less if he even were a crack addict...

That spoiled little bastard.
SUMLIN ON JOHNNY "BLOWING HIM OFF" AFTER PENALTY:
"Johnny came off the field and I made 2 statements to him. Neither of which should he have responded to. They weren't questions. The worst thing that could have happened was for (Johnny) to reply based on what I told him.
A lot of people who made statements about that weren't on the sideline. You can get a different perspective sitting in a studio or behind your television than you would have gotten live."
