Regarding: Booing MSU players.

[Indndawg]

Only two have deserved it in my lifetime.

1) The RoundMound of Slacking-Renardo Sidney
2) The RoundMound of Buffet Killing-Dante Walker

These two are the only ones, even the ever horrible TJ Mawhinney and Kamau Jackson did not deserve a boo...at least from me. I could not even boo Big Feces

When is the appropriate time to boo a coach so it doesn't seem like players are being booed? I'm sure there were boos for Fitz but I'm sure some were for Mullen then too.

Mike Henig vs LSU 2007

Always laugh when I read negative comments about Hening. It's not his fault he is 5'9 and should have been playing at West Alabama, Croom recruited him and gave him a scholarship. That guy took a beating and Croom should apologize for setting him up to get booed. If he acted like a turd one game, you try getting the hell beat out of you every Saturday and see how you act.

I agree he never should have been our QB. But he was. And threw 6 picks in a game. So yeah I booed him that day. Nothing personal against him but 6 INTs is insane.

I've never understood the unwritten rule of never booing or trying to equate it to booing "a kid". A boo from home fans is as simple as being unpleased with the product or decision they are seeing. It's a sporting event. Trying to make it personal or some attack of "kids" is a stretch. Who cares? [Full disclosure: I was not in attendance & did not boo although the effort certainly deserved it]

I'm just ready for some honesty from someone. Dan gets to skate every week without having to answer a tough question that he can't spin out of. Like no one will hold him accountable.

Hey Bob, Hadad, maybe you can answer this. Why will no reporter dare to ask the question about players giving up? Honestly, it's a fair question and everyone is thinking it. And you know the play I'm taking about. Serious question: can Dan have your credentials yanked if he doesn't like the question? Or will Bill Martin get pissed at you and you don't want to sour that relationship? I get it, but Dan should have to answer for that crap. I want to hear what he has to say.

One play? I saw numerous plays where our guys gave up. What happened to relentless effort?

Booing the entire team at halftime was completely justified for the piss poor effort they gave in that first half. Singling out a player (like Fitz) is never OK. Especially since Fitz was far from the most pathetic player that took the field Saturday.

I thought everyone was booing Rankin not even getting a hand on the DE on back to back sack fumbles? Well 17 me.

Jets fans think not.

Fitz is one of the few guys I feel gives good effort consistently

And as far as booing student athletes - If one of our players can't respect the fact that 60,000 people cashed in their weekend to show up and watch them play while they occupy a scholarship, well they don't deserve anything BUT booing. The effort I saw Saturday was worse than anything we've seen since the 2003 team...blatant and intentional.

Croom's boys didn't have half the talent of this squad but they gave some damn effort, Henig included. A respectable coach like Saban or Malzahn would have left teeth marks on some of these guys face masks.
