And a total POS after they won to get to the super bowl in 2018.

Guy has been an arse for the past half decade but gets revered here as some great guy. I don’t get it.

Did I hurt your feelings cause I called a spade a spade and didn’t ignore his commentary cause he plays for LSU?

This fricking idiot is still hurt the Saints were robbed. Yeah. I was pissed too but Whit played on offense and had zero to do with the call. He's mad because Whit supported his team with advancing to the SB. Idiot.

Whit does more charity wise for local kids in Louisiana than probably any other pro, well at least for kids in northeast LA. You’re just pissed because he happened to be on the rams when the beat the saints in the nfc champ.

That’s what I assume. Probably didn’t apologize to Saints fans and admit that it was the wrong call and that the Saints should go in their place.

Appalling.

To be fair, it was mostly his wife running her mouth.

Whitworth's line of reasoning was sound.

This is the LSU board so let it be expressly said I don't care if the Saints break off and float out into the GOM.

ETA: Whitworth is our GOAT LT. Happy for him.

I still have a picture of me and Andrew Whitworth in January 2004 standing out in the cold drizzle outside of Tiger Stadium after the National Championship celebration ceremony. I have about the same amount of grey hair in the picture as he has now.

EDIT- Okay, I mean grey in his beard, not on his head.

Rams tackle Andrew Whitworth says Saints’ anger over non-call is ‘an excuse'


quote:

The Monroe native and former LSU standout believes the complaints about the non-call by referee Bill Vinovich’s crew are strictly sour grapes. He told Rich Eisen on his Rich Eisen Radio Show on Tuesday that there were a number of missed calls in the game and the Rams deserved to win the game.


Whitworth stirred the pot after the no call... Frick him and the Rams... Hope they fricking lose another one to Burrow and Company.


He's from Monroe, he was probably a Cowboys fan growing up anyway...

Down vote all you want, don't give a shite about that stuff anyway...

Love Andrew Whitworth, probably the symbol of LSU being elevated to elite considering what he did at LSU and then his NFL career.

Respect and love

I think He is the most underappreciated player in the NFL.

Wasn’t a 1st round pick. Bengals started him out at Guard. They let him walk. He doesn’t get an recognition till 10+ Years into his career.
