I simply dont get why people would be upset that he questioned CLM. LSU pays him a huge salary and the fanbase pumps a lot of money into LSU. I don't get it. You can bet if LSU went 0-12 and fans found something else to do with their money, they would be doing everything they could to get you to bring your money back to their program.

I think its one thing to ask coach Miles face to face in a conference but when you bring the attention to national media wwl, cowherd, and mike & mike its more of an agenda. Esp when you say "I have forgotten more football then Les Miles remembers." Also WWL is a partner/carrier of LSU Athletics.

I agree with the question he asked (and even, to an extent, the frustration with which he asked it). I don't agree with his media celebrity tour, and even more so, his personal attacks on Miles. The quip about him knowing more about football than Miles was uncalled for; he lost my support with that.

LSU told WWL, either BH STFU or no more LSU network membership!

Good. After that, and his reaction afterward, I think it's time for him to try another line of work.

He wont get drafted because he is not and NFL lineman not because of Les Miles.

WWL is most likely giving him, and everyone else, time to cool off and let it blow over.

Jesus, what the frick does that have to do with anything? We were 12-1, not 0-12. Get a grip on your life before it slips away meaninglessly, brother.

T-Bob's draft status has nothing to do with Les Miles and everything to do with not being that good. Not bashing the guy, but get real.

Like Bobby said the other evening, he doesn't "need" to be on the air (i.e., need the $), but just enjoys what he does on WWL...so I suppose he can tell WWL to shove it, but I think he won't because he's likely a bit of a narcissist (maybe not that extreme, but he does LOVE to hear himself talk and opine) and will want to stay on the air. I'm OK with Bobby, but I think I would enjoy broadcasts just as well without him.

Incidentally, I am streaming WWL now and two of the first three commercials featured Bobby.

He's never on the air on Thursdays. Deke does the Players Show from Hooters alone, until the Saints player joins him at 6:00.

Dude I have a life. Apparently, you missed the point so please think outside of the bun here. Sports is big business that brings in a lot of money. The fanbase and corporations are their customers. Monday night did not reflect how LSU had played 13 games before. At some given point, CLM had to realize the JJ was not the best option and he needed to do something different, to continue to say that JJ was our best option until the clock ran out is simply crazy. I was making an analogy that you can't simply use the media when it benefits you, but run from it when it doesn't. I said if they were 0-12 and fans got busy doing something else, LSU would be using the media in everyway possible to lure the fanbase back. It was simply an analogy, nothing more and nothing less.

Opened his ignorant piehole one time too many? If so, good riddance. He's an embarrassment to the rest of us from this fine state of Louisiana.

Geaux Tigers!

This is America. Bobby can say whatever he wants.

If LSU and Miles don't like it, then maybe our coach shouldn't act like a stubborn, arrogant dumb arse.
