re: Jeff Landry has weighed in on LSU National Anthem drama

Come see us in 2 years and let me know how famous she still is. Nobody outside of LSU fans and parents care about this team, and the same applies to every other women's basketball team in this country. I did not disparage her accomplishments, which you clearly somehow think I did. I am calling out her self righteousness and lack of humbleness that are on full display with such ridiculous statements that were made by her and her teammates.

I'm not some champion of women's athletics, but this is objectively incorrect. Viewership is at an all time high, and Angel Reese will be remembered. She is an athlete doing what athletes do. They hype themselves up. They et emotional after spending their entire lives working toward a goal. Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Larry Bird. All gigantic assholes on the court who are anything but humble.

I bet you did not pay much attention to lady bball prior to them winning last year. You will try and say you did, but we all know that you and most other fans didn't. You just loved the moment of the final victory. I'm quite sure you didn't watch many games if any during that season. Fake fandom is real

Look man, I'm a 2 time LSU alumni. Women's basketball is about 4th on my list of LSU sports I care about, but I was going to the elite 8 in the arena in 2008 watching Sylvia Fowls play for LSU. Do I watch every game? No. But, I've loosely followed the program for 20 years and I enjoy watching them win. I'm just pointing out that stupidity in your statements.
