So you dont think putting you were a college athlete at LSU helps or is a good idea? Some crazy mofos up on this site

I mean there are mouth breathing retards that get some very good jobs solely because they played a sport in college, yet the OT thinks putting it on a resume is stupid. God bless this place, God bless it

Unlike which high school you went to, sports tells me something about a person. It tells me that they are team oriented, they take care of themselves, and they can multitask very well. If they made good grades in college and were able to represent their school in sports, then that's major props. You should definitely put that on your resume.

Although it may seem like I'm trolling, my resume does have

LSU Letterman Club on the bottom under organizations.

It's subtle, but there's only one way to become a member


ETA: I know numerous people who wore their 2007 rings on interviews and got hired on the spot. Said they didn't even discuss the job, strictly football.

Hell yes. I once scored 24 points in an intramural game in college. I could not miss from 3 that night
Also add in that opposing fans called you butter, because you were on a roll

See, I posted it quicker than you. Me being D1 and you being juco shows that it matters. Employers would make a big mistake hiring your slow nonathletic arse over me
