How do people go through life seeing and thinking the negative about EVERYTHING? It just seems like such a miserable existence.


I'm an LSU fan on a message board about LSU football. The biggest issue in LSU football is attracting two starter DTs from the transfer portal where there is slim pickings. Our DT position consists of one starter worthy veteran, one depth piece transfer, a few warm bodies and an incoming 5 star freshman.

It's literally the #1 topic on LSU football right now. And based on the reports, it's not going well. That's not "being negative about EVERYTHING." That's acknowledging that this is not going well and the ramifications could impact the success of the 2024 season.

People can label it a melt, a cause for concern, being chicken little or acknowledging reality. If you look at my other posts, I don't think I fall into the hysterical bucket. Just last week I urged caution in this thread about not overreacting if we lost some seemingly top prospects to the portal as it was necessary to make room for reinforcements on the DL in particular.

Anyway, remember this is a message board.

Bottom dwellers of the SEC right now. And the DB situation is only better, not because of high level talent, but just since there are bodies that can walk.
It will lead to several losses and a defense that will be in the bottom of the SEC again this year. Spend millions and millions on changing coaches and have less talent going into Year 3. BTW, that terrible DL last year of Mingo, Jefferson and Smith probably all get drafted this weekend.
And the offense will take a step back.

If you don't fit in this category, then all is well and good.But I'd bet there's a very large overlap in those who see nothing but negs in DL recruiting, McMahon, our AD, The baseball team. All these negs have what Saban called the brook trout stare. They go through life just knowing the worst is gonna happen. And that's sad.
