I apologize that my little rant pulled the discussion away for a second, but Jesus yall are frustrating sometimes. Out of the fans on the board, LSU fans are easily the most emotional- you can't deny that. That means tiptoeing around yall like you are all women sometimes.

What the frick are you talking about?

It's just funny when fans call fans of another team 'hypocritical', 'schizo', or 'inconsistent' when they don't all agree on a particular topic. A fan base is made up of millions of individuals, they don't all subscribe to group-think like aggies. But that doesn't make them hypocritical or hard to figure. Is the LSU fan base more fractional than others? Maybe, and I'm sorry if that hurts your poor aggie head.

Not really. That wasn't my complaint.

Heck, your fanbase fragmentation is NOTHING compared to some others. Like Texas fans, who range from the moron who mows your lawn to a guy with three degrees that does your taxes. Or UF fans and how they can't decide if they want a major program or if they are above that, or if they are a basketball school or if they are above that. Or Notre Dame fans who dither between intense football knowledge and bandwagon mouthbreathers who mistakenly feel Catholic still matters as a demographic anywhere but Latin America in 2014.

As a group, LSU fans are pretty homogenous. That isn't the issue. The issue is that as a group the number one shared group characteristic is a very emotional perspective on the sport. That isn't even necessarily a bad thing, in fact it rocks if you are trying to troll LSU fans. It sucks for a conversation though, for the same reason why I won't talk politics with my wives's friends.

This thread is going great though, I am happy with the responses. So thank you all.
