re: Jeff Landry Triple Dog Dare

Other than the concealed carry bill, landry seems like a bust.

Only reason I voted for him

So, not one of all you MF who responded to this thread served in the military or believe the team should be out there for the National Anthem? I don't think he should have penned this letter this quick, however, I agree with him. Put your hands on your frigging chest for a minute and respect the flag and the people who died for you players, coaches, etc. I see all the fans respecting the flag and the players should too!!

Respecting military service has nothing to do with preparing for a sporting event you're participating in in the locker room during the national anthem.

Iowa did, and shoved our shite!

Yeah, Iowa did last year too, and we shoved their shite in to win a national title.

The nfl teams use to be in the locker room working on their game plan during the NA. No one noticed. I don't mind this as it takes away any chance at showboating by players during the NA.

We are a shithole in almost every possible metric and Landry is trying to gain political points with this. Get to fricking work.

It's stupid, not legal, and puts a negative spotlight on the flagship university. He literally went on national tv to talk about this. He obviously doesn't care about the local reaction....he's trying to gain national points.

I used ChatGPT to decode the original message:

You:
please translate Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry's April 2, 2024 letter to Mr. Jimmie M. Woods, Sr. regarding LSU Athletes to be present for the playing of the national anthem in to Cajun English in the style of "Cajun Night Before Christmas"


ChatGPT
'Twas April 2nd, in de year twenty-twenty-four,
An' Governor Jeff Landry, he done knock on Jimmie's door.
He had a message 'bout LSU, dat school so dear,
'Bout playin' de anthem, an' bringin' folks near.

"Dear Mr. Woods, Sr., from de bayou so grand,
Let's talk 'bout LSU, dat college so grand.
Dere's a matter at hand, 'bout de anthem, you see,
An' I reckon we need a chat, 'tween you an' me.

We gotta ensure, when de anthem's begun,
LSU athletes, dey stand proud as de sun.
Like de cypress trees tall, in de Louisiana breeze,
Dey gotta show respect, as they please.

It's 'bout honor an' pride, for dis land we call home,
An' LSU's name, gotta shine like a chrome.
So let's spread de word, from de bayou to da city,
'Bout standin' up straight, ain't no time for pity.

I'm countin' on you, like a Cajun chef's roux,
To make sure LSU athletes know what to do.
Let's keep our traditions, alive an' true,
An' show de world what Louisiana can do.

So here's to LSU, may dey always stand tall,
An' may we unite, one an' all.
Thanks for listenin', Jimmie, to what I done say,
Together, we'll make Louisiana shine bright as de day."

With dat, Jeff Landry, he done send his regards,
Hopin' LSU athletes, dey heed dey charge.
For in Louisiana, we take pride in our land,
An' standin' for de anthem, it's part of de plan.

We're all aware of that. That's the problem. All Landry will ever do is posture. He literally only cares about the culture war. He will never do anything of substance that objectively improves the state.

Landry will prove to be much, much worse than Bobby.

If nothing else, Bobby is far, far more intelligent than Landry.
