Can't speak for him, but I knew Tua was better and had more upside and I still thought people should support Jalen.

Not sure why people think you can't do both. It was never about which one was better, it was always about they both deserve support.

I still think it was downright sad and bullshite the way people went on about Jalen.

I think that there are a couple of reasons:

1. They take spectator sports way too seriously, probably to make up for other inadequacies in their lives.

2. A general lack of perspective.

Dude it is a message board where fans have discussion. It is no different than when fans rode the kicker for sucking. Had there been a 3 star All American kicker on the bench that never missed a kick in mop up duty every member of this community would be calling for the kicker to be benched daily. No different than calling for Cotton to be replaced in favor of Wills or Leatherwood either. Quarterback is more important than those two positions.

As far as supporting the guys go I haven't missed a home game in two years plus I traveled for both preseason games and I went to all three playoff games. I didn't just sit on my arse either you can ask the old couple behind me all year. I spent a lot of time and money supporting our team and cheered when Jalen made a play. I wanted him to succeed. I did. Don't tell me I didn't give enough support bro. Doesn't fly.
