This is blatantly not true. Lotta people around here hardly trying to hide the fact that they don’t give a shite about the players at all outside of what they do on the field, and the players are taking notice.


Umm, if they weren't playing football at a high level they would be young adults working their first jobs or college students.. why else would I care about them over any other young adult? This argument is a weak attempt to create more of an us vs them mentality.

And plenty of people support and follow them after school. Former players are recognized and praise years after they are done playing. Just because I support their play on the field doesn't mean I have to blindly support their opinions, agendas, and actions off the field.

But they are playing football at a high level for our school. We want them to come play here, and we take pride in it when they go out and win a national title and talk about how these players are “ours”. But when these same players start making decisions for themselves or talking about social justice stuff or whatever, you have countless people in this fan base that call them selfish and basically tell them to shut the frick up. You don’t see the problem with that?

You really shouldn't, which was kinda his point.

You care about Chase because he plays for LSU. Chase didn't ask you to care and doesn't ever expect anything from you.
