    I get it Stacey and I'm all about swagger. Swagger breeds confidence. But there's a fine line between it and being 'thugish'. Now, I'm not saying our guys are thugs, but I think we do come across that way, at times. Just wish they'd go out and let their play do their talking for them.

    Come on. We're nowhere near being thuggish. I know you're probably thinking back to the 80's Miami teams. We aren't like that. And I think TM knows he didn't play well yesterday and will tone it down on twitter just a tad.

    Ok, maybe thuggish was the wrong word, but whatever it is, it's going beyond swagger. Now, if we were doing it in response to what the other team is doing/saying to us, then that's fine. But we appear to be instigating it 9x out of 10. It seems like on every play, somebody's chirping.

    I guess I'm just old school, but IMO, it doesn't present a good image of us to the rest of the nation.

    But it's just a game, and I look at it more as our team having fun--as well they should.

    I hate to be argumentative and I certainly mean no disrespect, but how is jawing in an opponents ear fun? When I think of fun, I think of them celebrating together after a big play, a 3-n-out, or big hit.

    It wouldn't even be that bad if you only saw it a few times throughout the course of the game. But it seems like it happens after every play of every game. (I know that's an exaggeration, but only a slight one).

    Idiots abound!

    Auburn's mascot?: A guy in a tiger suit!

    LSU's mascot? A live 500# half Bengal/half Siberian tiger--with original equipment installed: teeth, claws, nads.

    --put 'em together & what do ya get? One well-fed & contented tiger with an all-day chew toy!

    They don't know if they are war eagles or tigers. It is hard for Aubarn. War tiger Eagles?
