it’s not the “greatest country in the history of the world” anymore. Our healthcare, education, infrastructure, and income equality has fallen pretty far behind. While the healthcare is decent, the cost of it here compared to other countries who have equally as good care is astonishingly higher. Our education system is far behind many other countries like China, Germany, Sweden, Finland, the UK, and Japan. Our infrastructure falls behind Germany, Japan, Sweden, Austria and Singapore. On income equality, Finland, Germany, Sweden, Norway and several others are kicking our asses.

As for there not being any other country who has sacrificed more for equality, that may be true, but that doesn’t mean we stop there. We could do better.

Well, not “all things” apparently. I guess LSU was just to powerful for god.


He’s still a successful coach running a successful program. He’s not saying he won a game because of God, he’s saying he found the strength to lead a program through his faith.

Some of y’all are so obtuse.

The MyPillow guy says says the same thing. That doesn’t mean God loves MyPillow more than Serta. He means he found the strength to accomplish what he couldn’t on his own. That’s humility.

Clemson could lose half their best recruits and still have top 5 classes. Clemson keeps winning and Dabo is fine. If it was all about the feels Willie Taggart would still be at Florida State.

I doubt it hurts him long term. Dabo is a beast and he'll bounce back. Truth is all cops are targets right now, and any white man in a leadership who slightly disagrees with how these protests are going will get unfairly targeted - Ex Brees.
FYI I'm glad those Minnesota cops got charged, I'm cool with peaceful protests, but violent protests and rioting is criminal.

A white man has nothing to gain by making a comment.

Now Dabo is being Cancelled on Twitter for wearing a "Football Matters" t-shirt. Trevor Lawrence had to come to his defense. LINK

But the mob's not having it.

Lol... white proclivity is hilarious. Just can't see the wrongs on many level from the other side of what the protest is "really".

That's because he wasn't "privileged." Dude's mom had to live in his dorm with him because they couldn't afford anything.

Sick of this privileged crap. I grew up in a freaking double wide and went to school, worker hard and applied myself to make 6 figures. Hell, if I were black, I would've at least had affirmative action on my side.

Congrats. And you never had anyone suspicious of you, look down upon you, not want you to date their daughter or assume that you were inferior because of your skin pigmentation.

If our health care isn't the greatest then why do people come from all over the world to get treatment?

If our education is not the greatest then do people come from all over the world to get an education?

I wish you would move to any of those countries for one year and I will laugh at you when you are begging to get back to the US. People who have never been anywhere should not speak on things they know nothing about.

Couldn't have been because I never messed with drugs or wear hoodies during the middle of the summer like a moron.

The OP is a moron obviously. Why does Dabo have to say anything? He runs a great program and that's it. Anything a white coach says will be put under a microscope and if it doesn't satisfy the democrats they will just call him a racist anyway. As far as your privilege comment sorry this country was founded by people of my color and am I supposed to be a ashamed of that. Jesus (wait he was white too) lol

As bad as some of the idiots on here hate to hear it , Dabo will continue to recruit basically nothing but 5 star athletes , and they will continue to sigh with him ,regardless of some BS statement that inflames the racists, just not the FB players. It will be easy to watch whether this holds true or not , just watch the recruiting boards for the next umpteen years.

Our racists or diversity hating fans are busy saying "Dabo, hold my beer". It's too obvious. To comment that liberal democrats are wrong for feeling the way they do is hypocritical.

Check our how the initial Pro Brees crowd has flipped into the same crowd you call the liberal democrats. So if a person pushes racism, cool. If a person doesn't, then he's a liberal democrat. See how that works? Our fans don't need to cost us recruits after our coaches handles these real issues perfectly.

Dabo is sappy, whiny and annoying, but everyone needs to stop hanging on every sound bite that someone says and trying to weaponize their words.




What were our fans of the same MO saying about Orgeron prior to the 2019 season.
We don't need to attack every other HC or team.
We don't need it. Orgeron hugs the opposing players after we play. It shows strength and confidence.
Act like you have been there. We are LSU.

America and these liberal snowflakes are pussifying our country day by day. We are no more racist than any other country or group of people. We just have overly sensitive people that have never experienced true racism and want to be coddled and told they're great and the best thing ever. You can't have your own opinions, much less state them anymore, without being labeled a racist. No matter how much data or factual information you have to base your conclusions on. It's pathetic. I'm sorry, but I don't have to like everyone. Everyone surely doesn't like me. I don't expect or feel like the world or anyone in it owe me anything either, including respect. Alot of people claim institutional racism and we don't have anything of the sort in this country. Look around ffs. Anyone can achieve and become whatever they want in this nation if they're willing to sacrifice and work hard to obtain it. Nobody is going to give you shite and they shouldn't. We have to earn success. The problem is that we have alot of weak minded people these days that want to be successful but want to make excuses when they don't work hard enough to be successful...then, they want to blame it on "institutional racism" and other bs when it doesn't work out the way they want it to. What laws are holding any minorities back in this country? Last time I checked, there are laws and statutes in place that help minorities out and give them an unfair advantage compared to others. Example...affirmative action, welfare, etc. GTFO with the racism bs bc it's just not true. There's nobody holding any race of person behind but themselves in America today. I'm tired of hearing the lies and bullcrap.
