I have seen several posts recently saying that "ESPN hates LSU". Didn't put too much stock in this..until now. During John Kincaids college basketball update of yesterday's games, no mention of LSU and during the sportscenter update no score given of yesterday's game.

I'm not sure what I enjoy most at tigerdroppings:

bitching about canes chicken
noticing when espn forgets to lavish praise on lsu
threads about Does God exist?
watching fans jump on and off the bandwagon like fleas during in-game threads

You still shouldn't, the comments are made by immature geeks trying to get noticed on a message board. The argument is not that ESPN 'hates' LSU, it's that they refuse to cover them properly because LSU is in a small media market.

I heard that this AM. As I have stated in the past ESPN is a bunch of idiots from the East

The media size thing does have credibility, and with the ABC/ESPN alliance they will always cover the big market college sports teams that play on New Years day on their network a la Big 10 (what a joke) Pac 10 (one school conference) bowl game in the.....

Rose Bowl

If Peyton Manning had put up the numbers he did at Michigan instead of UT he would own a Heisman Trophy right now instead of Woodson. Why you ask?

Because ESPN pushed for the first defensive guy and a Michigan guy so that the HT winner would be playing in the Rose Bowl on their network. Hello! Don't be fooled, it's more about this than anything else.
