Be Honest..........What Type of Fan Are You Really????

Which one of these closely describes your mindset or rather "fandom" when looking at LSU football as its been the last 5 years up to now:
A. Just A Fan,
One who is just happy we have football and a great atmosphere. We have great tailgating with food and fun all around. Im just glad we are not some 3rd rate program with no real expectations or goals for the season. Just to be a part of a program like LSU is enough for me. Edited:
Doesnt matter if we really win or lose the game. Whats important is that we have fun either way.
B. The Perfectionist or Mr Great Expectations,
One who believes that there is no way in hell we should lose any games with this much talent on our team. We should be the 2001 St Louis Rams on offense scoring at will and NEVER EVER have 3rd downs or 2nd downs. Can live with 2nd and inches. Our talented qb's should be getting Heisman love EVERY YEAR and our running backs should be threatning the rushing record.
As far as our Defense.........2000 Baltimore Ravens defense led by Ray Lewis in his prime style......no less. Our secondary should be playing like Troy P. and Ed Reed every game.
C. The WINNER,
One who doesnt give a dam about how pretty or ugly the game was so long as we get the W. Yea we won by 70, but we won. Yea we won by 1 by the score of 3-2 on a late FG, but we won. Yea our offense looked horrible and defense great, but we won. Yea our coaches are clueless at times and I could outcoached them on any given day, but we won. Yea, the other teams cheerleaders are better looking than ours and they cheered louder than our home crowd...........but we won.
Which of these 3 are you CLOSEST to. Not necessarily EXACT but closest.
If Im being honest with you guys and not lying to my ownself. Im closest to B. Yea I want to win, but I LOVE dominance. But will take the win if thats all I get.

a good mix of A & C

A
Posted on 9/21/09 at 11:23 am to amarti9
Closest to B. But I don't incessantly bitch about the tiny things after we've won three games so somewhere between B and C.
Posted on 9/21/09 at 11:23 am to ViNSANE
B) but i can take a loss here or there, as long as we play a solid game. This season, im def a B right now
Posted on 9/21/09 at 11:23 am to amarti9
none of the above? 
Posted on 9/21/09 at 11:23 am to amarti9
A fusion of A and C.
I am more of a bandwagon fan, because I never attended LSU, and I only went to games to spend time with my brother. I keep up with the games, and watch them, but it's not my life, and I don't want to kill anyone or myself if LSU loses.

Also, you should add delusional with C.
Posted on 9/21/09 at 11:24 am to ViNSANE
I am definitely a C.
Some years the D is better than the O, or visa versa. Very few teams are equally dominant on both sides of the ball.
Last year we stunk it up on both sides, and I hope this year the team finds it's identity soon.
A. Ball Control good defense
B. Wide Open Offense with mediocre D
If I had my bet we settle in for A, and end up having many W's this year.

I'm pretty much A. I just love LSU. The good, the bad, and the ugly.
Posted on 9/21/09 at 11:26 am to amarti9
A&C.
I'd love for us to win every game, but realistic. Really just hope to beat Bama into the ground every year.
But A mainly, I live for LSU football season.
LSU football has gotten me through some hard times.
I love being home for home games, the culture, the atmosphere, the people, the women, the food, and just the South Louisiana Way of Life.

this....just critical when we are obviously not meeting our known potential...have to be realistic

B and A
Posted on 9/21/09 at 11:28 am to Klark Kent
I have to be honest. I was expecting more B. Based on the constant complaining and critiquing of our team over the last 3 weeks.......particularly JJ and the D........I would think B was the obvious choice for most of you.
Glad to see people are actually happy to be fans.

I have always loved teams that just always find a way to get it done. Not a fan of the Steelers for example but I love the fact that they just always seem to find a way.
I'll take the '08 Steelers over the '07 Patriots ANY DAY.
