| FTBL Brad Lester is mouthing off.....

niksdav, Lester should keep his mouth shut and let his play on the field reflect his attitude. Becoming bulletin board material isn't a good thing when the bunch you are playing have enough motivation for them.
 
Brad Lester received an important phone call after that statement.

"You need to go home because your village called and said they are missing their idiot".
 
To be fair, I really didn't think what Lester said was all that outlandish. Niksdav makes a good point.

What was he supposed to say. He really did not do THAT much trash talking.

If it were a Bama player I would hope they kept their mouths shut about the other teams but Lester really didn't say anything that rude or crazy. He is just trying to be positive.

The only reason it made me raise my eyebrows is those comments came following a game they struggled in...against, UT Martin.

If it has been a big win against a UF type of team, I could understand them...
 
Auburn has struggled in all areas this year I think everyone is aware of that. The only chance to save anything of their season is to win their last two games. Lester is a senior, I think he was trying to give his teammates a little confidence. Even with confidence their is little chance they win either one.

I just don't agree with bashing players of any team. They are not paid, they are still kids, all of them want to win, so what if he said he thinks they will win.

Two thoughts just off the top of my head.

If he was trying to give his team some confidence, he would have said it to them, not to the media. Personally, I see it as a little bit of grand-standing.

I'm not one to "bash" players, but if a kid comes off talking smack about a game I do think he's entering an arena where he needs to be able to back it up.

I see him, and his comments, as very over-confident.

Oh don't get me wrong Terry. I do agree and what he said was foolish and probably very wrong. Beating UGA by THREE scores? Please.

All the same, it's not like he has said some of the fool things Miles has said this year.
:wink:

That's one of the reasons I said earlier that it made me raise my eyebrows when I heard it...especially coming after who they had just played.

Brad reads books.
