Maybe it would be good for Fitz to know that we as fans think it is real chicken**** to do what he did there. I help pay for the uniform he wears and so it matters to me what kind of leaders we have wearing it.
You want to be the face of a program, act like it.
What the entire F$&K???

This is being blown way, way out of proportion, but it’s being blown out of proportion because our fans are on edge because we’re gettong real hype for the first time in years. We’re over sensitive to everything right now because we’re super hyped. Having said that, it IS a bad look. A fifth year senior team leader shouldn’t be getting suspended regardless. He should know better. Having said that, we will win Sat and move on.

Go look at some of his posts. He’s not on our side.

And, yes, I expect Fitz to play and live up to his billing. There is and will be no controversy here.

He did exactly what he should have done. You play by the rules, no matter who you are. THE quickest way to lose a team is not to do that.

You're clearly the worst poster on this board after only 46 posts. Congrats.

From what I've heard about Joe, he would have been suspended no matter the opponent.

^^This. And although I agree with Beast most of the time, this thread was unnecessary.

I don't think that's real. It can't be. Maybe an OM troll.

Dak Prescott has had several very public incidents that our fans have given him a total pass for. Fitz doesn’t get a dang mohawk and gets suspended for one game and all of the sudden he’s a bad person with red flags all around.
He screwed up. He is serving his suspension. The coaching staff is very pleased with where he is, and our team voted him captain after the fact. That’s all there is to it. Why do our own fans have to make this out like he is a cancer to our team?

Ditto. . . about the Mohawk.
If you want me (Teammates) to respect you as the one of the alpha leaders of the team, then do what you said you were going to do. If you indeed keep your promise, I now am even more willing to go to "war" with you and for you, and let's be clear, football in the ultimate legal physical battle in sports. Therefore it requires honor and commitment from all involved. Well if you renege on your word, then. . . I believe that's a bad optic as we well as a bad precedence for one's journey.

Bullsh*t!! You are a total douchebag to think that we hold any MSU player, especially one that's on the cusp of leading our greatest season ever, in low regard. No one is above criticism and everyone on this site hopes this is just a blip and that Fitz takes us to the promise land!

Not getting the mohawk didn't bother me all that much ... presumably it was a light-hearted thing with a buddy on the baseball team. What was more bothersome was letting his girlfriend boss him around.

Ha, what? Not getting a haircut showed you what kind of a man he is. What a crock of bullshit. He showed Me what kind of Man He was by running the **** over anyone that tried to tackle Him. He is a Warrior and I want Him leading the Bulldogs. Ya'll are the same critical Mfers that wanted to throw Jeffery Simmons to the curb. Just STFU and move on.

Aww horseshit.
I played ball with plenty of guys I didn't respect off the field, a couple of whom I loathed and wouldn't have pissed on if they were on fire. But, they were damn good athletes and helped us win ball games and that was all I cared about. We did our business when we had to, communicated as needed, then ignored each other when we weren't on the field. Most guys don't give a rats ass what you do off field as long as you show up and do your work and make the team better. Believe it or not - a team of 100 guys aren't all going to like or respect each other.
