I think they keep mentioning Angel because it's the same school year. The girls won this year and so did the boys. Burrow was 4 years ago.

Cause Joe never yapped in an opponents face.

What? It's common knowledge he was one of the biggest shite talkers on the team. Did you follow burrow at lsu? He literally started a brawl with his own teammates during a practice. You think he was quiet on the field against other teams?

Nope. Most likely it’s because she is a female athlete. Has nothing to do with race. I was merely pointing out the differences in the media’s reaction to each one.


Nope. The difference was Burrow and Crews aimed their celebratory gestures at their own teammates across the field. Reese’s gesture was directed at, and right up in the face of a specific, singular opponent. Reese wasn’t celebrating her own team’s achievements, she was taunting her opponent for her coming up short. It’s a huge difference.

If you don't think it had to do with race then you just don't want to see it.
When Clark did it she was labeled hard nosed and real fighter out there on the court.
When Angel did it she was classless. If you can't see the clear double standard then you just don't want to.

You mean the same opponent who had been touted for those same type of antics?



You think angel does that gesture if lsu was losing?

Angel was doing it in her opponents' faces. I don't give a shite that she did and certainly not criticizing her for it. But doing it toward your own dugout or sideline is different with regards to "sportsmanship" than doing it in someone's face.

Reese got in opposing players face and followed them around while taunting. Pretty classless.

Oh, no, see that just makes you a racist for pointing this out. Other Tiger fans are more than happy to let you know that this is just your racism speaking, and nothing to do with common sense or manners of celebration.

All of the LSU Progs/Moderates will white night unecessarily for Reese so they can get their virtue points.

Thanks for proving my point.

Clark did it and she was hard nose and a real gamer.
Angel did it and she is classless.
Wanna know who said it wasn't classless? The person you're saying had the "classless" act directed at them.

Or maybe you can ask Clark if it was classless. She says nope. I wonder why Clark wasn't called classless. I'm sure it was just an oversight.

Good for her. She acted like an arse too the game before, so I would hope she wouldn't have an issue with it.

I just said she was. The team used her idiocy as motivation and it worked out great. Still doesn't mean that both parties didn't look the best. Either way, I'm not going to sit here and try to play the race card on others for virtue points.

Neither Burrow nor Crews chased Trevor Lawrence or Wyatt Langford around the field talking shite while their teammates celebrated winning a title. If we’re gonna play this bullshite game then let’s talk about everything that actually happened instead of conveniently leaving out what people were actually criticizing Reese for doing

You raging racist racism racist. We can't discuss the entire context when playing the race card. That wouldn't help the narrative.

Now get back to racing you racialist racist.

The point is no one called her classless. No one.

And again... no one called her classless. It was literally a badge of honor. So maybe next time try not shite on a lsu player that just delivered a national title because they don't live up to your bullshite level of classlessness. She saw Clark get touted for it.

No one is ,or at least im not, calling you a racist. But if you think race had nothing to do with Angel being called classless for doing something that was a badge of honor for Clark then you just don't want to.

I thought what little did after that game was not too classy and inappropriate.

What’s annoying is winning a Title and you people still have stuff to complain about.

Is this what we are bitching about the day after the LSU Fighting Tigers won a National Championship in NCAA College Baseball?

Change your tampon, take a Midol, and move on.
