Why does the Rant love Tyrann Mathieu but hate Ben Simmons?

One’s team was awesome and the other’s team sucked

Because Mathieu whole heartedly apologized to LSU and paid it 10 fold for his mistakes. He also shows pride toward the university.

That b-ball team had so much talent. shite man.

One had to get kicked off the team, the other pretty much quit himself.

Did you watch either of them play?

Gee let’s see:

One was a playmaker the likes of which had never been seen and will probably never be seen again in any our lifetimes and he played on a team that played for a National Championship

The other, while putting up great stats, consistently shirked in big moments and was the poster boy for possibly the biggest underachieving team at LSU in any sport ever.

Can’t imagine why fans would prefer one to the other

Mathieu has given back to the school and speaks well of the university every chance he gets. Ben talked shite about the school on his way out after being a major disappointment. ( in results not individual performance) It’s not that hard.

Ben played for Ben. Honey badger had his demons but he has beaten them and has donated a lot of money back to the athletic program. I’m 47 and he’s the best player I’ve ever seen play in purple and gold. Faulk is my favorite player, for what he did for LSU, but TM7 was the best player on the field every time he walked onto it

Edit: late to the game, redundant post

Oh no, don’t dare badmouth the great Ben Simmons, the fricktards from the other thread will rush over to defend his honor..
