Did anybody else see the LSU yahoo in the stadium flip off the camera on national television?

Talk about a poor sport.

Dude, next time you feel the urge to embarrass Tigers everywhere with a fatuous, puerile display like that, do us all a favor and just geaux home instead.

Yeah, and he had on a visor.

What a d-bag!

+1 for the comment and another +1 for a better vocabulary than most on here.

maybe cbs shouldn't zoom in on LSU fans when we are losing.

plus who gives a flying frick if he flipped off the camera while we were down.

when we lose sportmanship is my least worry.

I like how they had that zoomed up close... and they took forever to change cameras.

He probably thought he was doing everyone a favor. I know he's mad, but he went one step past mad and went stupid. Remember, there is still no cure for stupidity!!!!!!!!!!

Poor taste. Even poorer taste for CBS to continue focusing on it.

Using those big words will cause all these rantards to make a run to the dictionaries, Monster.

i would have done the same thing. What kind of a-hole cameraman zooms in on lsu fans when they are about to lose. its shitty enough that we're losing, but to put our expressions on national tv is even shittier. i'm here with you chief. That was also funny as hell.

maybe if the FCC fines CBS enough, they won't pick up any more LSU games and we can have night games....

Great impression for the rest of the country.

As a photoshopper, some of my favorite source pics are when the fans are caught by the prying cameraman dumbfounded, shocked, or better yet, crying. It's a priceless pic to throw up in their faces when you need it.

However, no one will be using a screenshot of that one. He was fully aware of the oppurtunistic voyeur, and showed he was well aware of the score, and it didn't need any capturing.

Thank him. The guy saved you from some future heat.

just no 2:30!! I can handle 5:00... but man 2:30 just takes the wind out our sails. remember in the 90's when it was called the early game curse? Who thinks it continues?

Look at the depression! Nobody is flipping the bird.
But if they were, it probably would not be as funny.




I took the Oklahoma Crying Kid and made him the Face of OU's Program, like the ESPN segment.




The guy flipping the bird will not be used to make us look dumb. I would never use it. It shows too much awareness of the camera, and not a natural moment of dismay.
