I have to ask... is it envy that has every working mouth in Baton Rouge hammering LSU all year long? Is it a self-envy thing? The only difference I see is that the sports radio in Baton Rouge rides along with the sentiment of fans all year, bashing LSU football and Miles, going back and forth... but, now that they have delivered the title shot... all is forgiven and it's time to bash everyone else for thinking they were entitled to the shot.
i see the whole lsu pig and lsu fan thing this way, there is a large contingent of die hards, the guys who worked their way through the dinardo days, the guys who you can talk to intelligently. then there are the bandwagoners. the bandwagoners are everywhere, in fact LSU's main fanbase is made up of bandwagoners. These guys jumped on right after the 03 bcs debacle. They havent left yet and have been so darn aggravating and made me hate, no despise, no loathe, yeah friggin loathe those purple blowhards east of the mississippi.
Look Dland, it's an opinion, everyone has one. If you don't agree with it that's your right, but don't come on here and complain about it. I know you're a fan of both but maybe you should keep your UL ideas here and take your LSU ideas somewhere else. I, like so many other people was wishing that LSU would not make it to the NC because now for a month I have to listen to idiot LSU fans (and i'm not talking about all LSU fans) complain about how they are #2 instead of #1 or how they are not getting the full vote of confidence from the nation. I have to see all of those 2% fans getting their LSU gear out of the attic to wear for a few weeks only to be put away again if they lose. Look Jay has been the announcer for UL for a long time and he works closely with the University so you can't blame him for being a little bit biased for UL. And I know I have to change the channel when the show swings to LSU callers for 3 hours. I'm Just Sayin'
ESPN 1420 is the UL flagship station. When possible, all the shows should cover only the issues concerning UL athletics.
Now I certainly understand that many hours must be filled, and sometimes announcers must talk about what callers comment on.
With that being said, I definitely turn the station when it turns to Baton Rouge talk radio. I listen with hopes to hear about UL.
Overall, I think Jay does a great job.
'hawk--when you choose the fork that takes you down grammar road, be sure to study up on contractions first. "if YOU'RE gonna try..." was the way to go.
but otherwise i'm with you--jay is anti-lsu, but not terribly so, and i enjoy his show very much. call him all the time.
Hang on Sloopy.....weren't you the one I busted for the grammar faux pas early in your "let me take a jab @ the Cajuns but not quite enough to be considered a pain in the arse" career, here on Ragin Pagin?
I defy you to produce any documentation anywhere proving BOP is "anti" tiger. I think its just a figment of that "if it aint lsu all the time it aint _____" syndrome some of you old boys have....yes???
all the best,
