Well, there's no reason for basketball on this board anyways. Every game is decided by the refs, every last one of them. Only sport that the outcome is strictly determined by the refs. everytime.

I’m not anti basketball. To each their own.
I just don’t care about it at all.

I wouldn’t trade the 2019 football season for 20 bball championships.

Like Tim Brando said many years ago... LSU fans don’t fully support basketball because they are racist.

Brando said they support baseball for obvious reasons and they support football because the players are far away and hide under all the pads and helmets.

At basketball games they players are up close and not hidden.

From a 2009 thread:

He then says "I am just throwing this out there" but

Maybe the reason LSU fans are not supportive of LSU Basketball is because of race

His reasoning:
THought 70 perecent of the players on the FootBall team are black they are still perceived as purple and gold and with uniforms plus they are far away they don't have to deal with they are black

That on the basketball court Fans don't have that distance and so they have to deal with their blackness up front

and third while its Basketball season LSU fans are way more excited about Baseball Sesaon ( a more white team which was implied)

He basically called out all the SEC with some exceptions. Pretty incredible

Absolutely, the baseball only folks have always taken delight in throwing shade and trolling basketball folks.

With losses to KY, TT, and Bama that stretch open the gates for some others besides the baseball bunch to troll, but I'm on board with you, I think we're past that and hitting our stride.

Geaux Tigers!!

I like how three weeks of horrible play = “don’t panic” but two good games = “we going to da ship!”

The overall grade for the season is still a C at best. If that’s good enough from our basketball coach for tiger fans then we’ll never be any better than mediocre. I hope they continue to improve and that I eat crow by the end of the season but so far this season has been a letdown.

The Deaf Dome completely invalidates this ridiculous take. Fans want a winner. We saw what happened in 2018 for the Vandy game when Wade was suspended. Win and they will come. This race stuff is a bunch of nonsense.

Well, LSU has had one of the best baseball programs ever. Of course people are more excited about a sport that has better players and a better chance of winning a championship.

He is quietly putting together an SEC POY type of season.

He's in the top 10 in ppg and steals per game
Top 5 in: Assist per game; FG% (best for a guard); and third in 3pt %. (2nd in made 3 pointers)

You did say it.
You reiterated it with your first paragraph.


Tim Brando sounds a lot like left wing sjw democrat with that statement.
Same thing they do in today’s politics.
