Jeff Landry is a complete idiot. Another black eye for the Republican party doubling and tripling down on monumental stupidity instead of working on the real problems here in Louisiana.



Meanwhile if it were ANY other team this board would be praising him. Funny how homerism brings out the hypocrisy in people

He never should have shot off his mouth in the first place. His latest statement is meaningless mush.

Otherwise, it will be interpreted by many observers exactly as this was: that the team not on hand isn’t patriotic.
Seems like Jeff’s the only person who noticed this unpatriotic display?

As your governor and a veteran, I recognize the importance and significance. I also know that our collective respect for the flag showcases to the world that our states believe in America. This allows us to be united, rather than divided.


This sounds like it was written by a 5th grader.

he’s mastered the Trumpian rhetorical device of “I’m not saying xyz, but other people are saying xyz…”

He'd have been better off just shutting up and letting people forget about the issue instead of bringing it back up again. Now he just looks like an idiot.

Second, at no time was the intent to suggest that coach Kim Mulkey or LSU’s players were less than patriotic because they weren’t on the court while the national anthem was played. In fact, I called on the NCAA to look into standardizing the event management within college sports because what happened was unfair to Mulkey and the LSU women’s basketball team.

Then he should've had Scott Woodward bring up the issue with the NCAA and/or SEC league office privately. Not hop online and tweet out something that sure looked to every sane person like it was a shot towards the LSU WBB team

Other than the fact it took him four times to say something halfway meaningful and intelligent?

Hey Jeff, we know you meant what you said the first three times.

You're just a moron looking for something negative. Why is the left so hell bent on this negative agenda.

I see nothing wrong in that explanation regardless if were written by Republican Jeff Landry or Democrat John Bel Edwards...the truth is always the truth...of course unless you're a left wingnut.

Whats depressing is the idiots who just want to win more kids games vs uniting a country suffering great turmoil. But, those opposing Landrys words are the usual suspects, so it shouldnt be that surprising

The anthem was written during a time of war. With the hopes that our symbol of freedom would still be seen with the morning light. It also was the rallying point to which people were freed during an internal conflict of war. Yet those very same people are the ones mocking the sacrifices of Americans that gave everything, so that we can all be free

Its just juveniles bitches that would rather lose a country, than a few sports games. Pathetic really

We should never have a situation where one team is on the field or the court for the national anthem and the other is not. Either both teams should be on hand or neither should be.


There is a small back peddle in this line

I propose a trade. You can have Jay Inslee, or whoever gets elected between Bob Ferguson and Dave Reichert and we get Jeff Landry.

Dude he took what was event planning and logistics issue between a bunch of parties and turned it into an issue of patriotism. Then wanted to add consequences and in turn assign blame to the people that had nothing to do with the problem (the players).

That's not even taking into account the argument that forced patriotism isn't patriotism at all. Now he is trying to massage his messaging because he realized he made an arse of himself. Would it be nice to have teams present for the anthem....I would say yes. There is a way to have that discussion....this wasn't it.
