Your theory is not without merit - many do seem TOO normal. KC.

Its fun to watch LSU fans cry about Bama and Saban even though we don't play for over a month. You will never get over the fact that we took your coach.

Why do you say shite like this? We didn't take their coach. He went to Miami and did not like it in the pro's so he wanted to be back in college. We just had the deep pockets to bring him back to the SEC. Dont say dumb shite like this to flame the board

I agree that the Saban stuff has gotten pretty stale. Y'all can bring it back for ONE DAY if y'all beat LSU this year! KC.

Saban would have happily gone back to LSU if the job had been open, but it wasn't. Alabama was, and he took the opportunity. I don't really agree with how it all went down on his end, but to say you "took" Saban from LSU makes no sense.

I can only speak for me. I have never been one to go to any message board until I came here. I have a friend in Shreveport that is a huge LSU fan and he told me about this website that talked about LSU football. I came here and read the board for a long time before I signed up and began posting.

I went to a few BAMA boards in hopes that they would be like this board and they were terrible. Any thread I posted would usually get deleted on the BAMA boards. They were very picky and if you posted anything negative about Alabama they would delete it and suspend you even if it was the truth.

You can post most anything here within reason. If you post a thread here and people respond to it, it stays. If people don't respond it moves its way off of the front page. Everyone here does not try to control what you post.

I have been here long enough now that I know the posters here better than I do at any of the BAMA boards and I like most of the people here so I guess I just stayed.

I enjoy coming here also because there is always a lot of people on this site and there is always someone to talk to on here. I use to go to some of the BAMA boards and post a thread and most of the time nobody would even respond.

Overall this is about the best board I have been to so I guess I will stay as long as I am allowed to.

Thanks for the insight, Scoop. That was a great, honest post. You're passionate about your team without feeling you have to put down someone else's. I can only speak for myself, but fans like yourself are always welcome on this rant! KC.

I'm not a Bama fan, but speaking as a non-LSU fan, this is hands down the most fun message board I've ever been a part of. You get perspectives from all over the conference (and there's a ton of non-conference posters here, for that matter), and the SEC rant may be the best board ever devised.

I love the trash talking and mudslinging that goes on between all of us. And though there are a few posters on this board I think that are dense as a rock, it is by and large a place for intelligent, informed, and rational fans from all over to abandon all reason and just argue with each other based on pure emotion.

Love it.

I second that. I really do not understand how it isn't considered the best conference in the nation by everyone.

I second all the things said. It is a unique and enjoyable board where you can post what you want. I use to visit Tiger Forums. I got pissed by that guy Terry from Bama who is constantly posting negative things about LSU but the mods suck up to him. I got warned when I called him out. The final straw was when their board crashed after I think the Florida game last year and it took them about a month or more to upgrade the servers. The owner of that board does not understand the business side of his board and lost major visitors when he took so long to upgrade his servers. On top of that I offered to help when he was looking for a new data center and I was ignored. His first choice bombed which caused more problems. They have some good people who post but there is a major click going on which is a big turn off. I'm still venturing out to other sections of this board and like every new experience. It's a huge board with great posters.

I don't mind,but do a like number of LSU fans hang out on Bama boards? Most of you all are great, but why this board? Some do it to harass us about Saban, but I don't think that is it for most. Any comments? KC.


Every once in a while there is a legitimate discussion about football,but for the most part for me its just for laughs.

Because at the moment there are 12 threads on this front page about Bama/Saban, and only 3 of them have been started by a Bama Fan.

Want "Bammers" to go away, then LSU Fans need to quit obsessing over all things Saban/Bama.,

I don't want "bammers" to go away - I just wanted to know what compelled so many to post on this website. I believe I have my pleasant answer for most. KC.

I give some of them some shite now and then, but most of the regulars are pretty good posters.

Scoop is great. I like reading DevilsAdvocate's thoughts and Trio and LuckyLes are even growing on me. Even though Trio sometimes can't stop himself from saying the Saban obsession stuff.

and look at Rockystop, calling out one of the flamers in this thread!

Booger, you be nice to the visitors here.

Trio and Booger need to have a throw down.

Question Trio,
Why are you so concerned with what we think? I am sure there are plenty Bama boards you could post on regarding LSU. Why this one? Don't flatter yourself man. Are there this many LSU posters on any of the Bama boards as there are Bama fans on this board? Who is worried about who? Geaux home.

Another thing that is great about this board is that people talk smack and back it up with proof.
There are some fairly intelligent posters on this board, with the exception of Trio
