DId they ever have an OTL discussion on JaMarcus? Or is that just the Waking Up vid.

Love what he did for LSU in 2005 and 2006. I don't really care about him being lazy and spending his money carelessly. What bothers me about JaMarcus is him wearing a Crimson Tide jacket. I'm not saying I hate the guy; he had a great run at LSU and led the Tigers to several victories (21 I believe), so I'll always be appreciative of his efforts. But why the frick would you wear Bama attire if you bleed purple and gold?

I've heard the argument, "He's 'repping his home state," and it's fine to be proud of your home state. If he were wearing a "Sweet home Alabama" T-Shirt, or a shirt with the shape of Alabama, I'd be okay with that, but why would wear a rival's attire if you are a lifetime Tiger?

I love the state of Texas, but I'm an LSU fan, so I would never wear a UT or A&M shirt. I doubt Les Miles ever wore an Ohio State jersey after he played for Michigan, even though he's from the state of Ohio, so the whole "'repping his state" argument simply doesn't fly.

I still like JaMarcus, I just like him a little less now.

Every video that I have watched do for he is rocking LSU gear.

Not to mention, his twitter background is a picture of him when he played at LSU.

But yeah, he's totally sniffing Saban's jock now.

Was Jamarcus not wise with his money? I haven't seen anywhere that he's had money problems.

I feel like The Rant is overreacting to my post.

I didn't say anything too negative about JR.

I wanted to express my opinion, and this is the best platform to do so.

I hear what you're saying, that stuff bugs me too.

But the shirt a guy wears once or twice isn't going to make me think less of him. I'm rooting for him all the way!

He still has his money. Not sure where you got the "careless spending" from.
