re: Any word on Mike?

Well, I've seen him in the cage before and he looked chill. Maybe they just gave him the tiger version of some Xanax. I'm not sure why that's so awful. I understand not wanting to use the stun gun rod to poke him into getting in, but LSU themselves have created this issue. They didn't train him well enough to get in the cage. Now he doesn't want to do it so he just sits there, and they don't even try. I've seen that tiger there with a thousand people standing right by his habitat and he was running around and jumping in the water for them.

It's one of LSU's best and oldest traditions. And as far as opposing players go...umm yea, many many players have come out and talked about how freaked out they were that there was a live tiger 10 feet from their locker room door. Maybe it doesn't scare you, but you're not playing college football.
