I think it's a stupid ad but, it's how some of the fans feel so whatever.

Not a real fan if he is going to say thank you to 1 player.


Last time I checked football was a team sport.
I could be wrong.

Its not like Lee was the reason we were 9-0 in his starts. The thanks should go to the LSU D.


And it's not like the guy who wrote it did so bc he played so well. It's the way he was treated that make people want lee to know that he is appreciated...

The FACT that jlee is so much more liked than Jj really really upsets some of you.

Assuming this thread doesn't get deleted, stick around and watch. The butthurt mad posters will show up in this thread like white on rice.
It'll be painfully obvious.

There were some people telling everyone to shut up on January 11th. I hate to tell you this, but that game and the JJ / JLee saga will be talked about for years.

Until LSU's remaining QB's get started and give everyone something else to talk about, JJ v JL and the national championship game are the ONLY things to talk about (unless Gunner deceides to reply to Les).

I wish the best for both JL & JJ, and I'm very glad that both have run out of eligibility.

If you don't like it or think it's inappropriate that's fine, just don't act like you more of a fan or those who do like it are less of a fan.


I think any fan that would go out of his way to praise one player (who wasn't even that good) over the entire team is a no good POS. And don't sign it as if you speak for all tiger fans. If you can't see that it is tacky than you are a chump also.

I agree and would also add that they are a coward for doing it anonymously.

Some of you people take your butthurt to another level.
Earth to topwater: you aren't kidding anyone.
You are ,ad because you preferred jj over jlee their entire careers.
Just admit it, it's ok to be honest.

Now that someone decoded to give lee some credit/attention/notoriety you are mad about it.

It's rather childish of you if you would stop for a second and think about it.

Fwiw the majority of LSU fans are chumps I suppose.

Itll be ok pal.

Weren't you part of the JJ team always citing his winning percentage, or number of wins as a starting QB after yet another one of his sub-100 yard games? Do we need to break out the pot and kettle pictures for you?

I don't have anything against JL. I was beside myself he didn't get an opportunity to play in the BCSCG. I pulled for him as hard as I did any other player...problem is our entire fanbase can't say the same. I am glad it's over.

Thank you JL.

Was he the only qb at LSU to go undefeated in a season?

Of course he was, that's why he and whoever else piles on this are upset.

It works both ways, I'll be fair.
I've been a jlee homer since day one so of course I'm happy about it and support the ad.

No I will admit I thought JJ was better than JL. But unlike the JL supporters I never pulled against JL like yall did JJ.

That's the issue. With the "jlee homers" it isn't about the team it is about one player. I may come off as a JJ lover but I care more about the team and doing what it takes to win. I supported Miles, even though I disagreed with the way he handled the situation (post 11/5), but I never spewed hate towards or wished that jlee would just go away, even if it meant being imprisoned (which a lot of the jlee homer crowd stated on this very board). That is childish.

Ok, but this is about the ad.

What you, and others like yourself do is turn it into a popularity contest.
You don't like the ad bc IYO its a slap in face to jj, which IMO that has nothing to do with it.

As I said, it seems your feelings are hurt bc lee is getting attention and jj isn't.
I'm just calling it as I see it.

This is my issue. Players come and go and fans should have favorites but I know some that wished LSU would do bad with JJ playing. Really pissed me off.
