Finebaum is a self rigorous, vindictive, pompous Louisiana hating a hole. Kiffin should never allow himself to be interviewed by him. He's a snake who is a closet Bama or Tennessee fan. He called Kiffin everything from a pathological liar to a flaming narcissist and everything in between. He has disparaged our governor, our AD, our chancellor and the people of Louisiana for the last 3 weeks. Bet ESPN told his ugly arse to cool it.

You are saying Finebaum's bullshite does not require a response?

Someone may "know exactly what they are doing" when they lie to your face about your sister sleeping around, call her a dirty whore, and then proclaim it to the world.

I guess your manly response would be to simply ignore the defamation, regard it as a "troll," and walk away? That's your point?

He’s nothing but a click whore and bandwagon

Lane should never afford him an interview or favor, IMO

Finebaum is an effing imbecile.

In a TV segment Paul Finebaum called Greg Sankey (a man who has single-handedly brought the SEC to a cliff's precipice) "a hero." He calls the efforts to bring back Harris and Wright one of the worst moments in the history of sports.

Then he says, "We can quibble about whether these guys should be able to return ..."

No!

Apparently we cannot quibble about it.
Because if we do, Paul the idiot thinks such "quibbling" justifies kicking a founding member institution out of the SEC!!!

What in the world!
Paul the idiot thinks Kiffin is a "child" because CLK is willing to abide a court order?

Paul the idiot thinks LSU should be removed from the SEC for the same reason?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME ?? !!

He is everything you would expect in person. Spring 2024, walked past him at a Harris Teeter in Charlotte. 4 years after covid, still masked up in public. It was likely to protect him from having to engage with someone vs. catching the cold. He and the other virtue signaling, cancel culture, hold overs at ESPN are not worth what they are being paid.

“What will get my ratings up?”

That’s it. Why would that piss you off?

He's applying "Rat Poison" now as his earlier stated hate against LSU and Lane only solidified the teams resolve.

He does that for ratings and calls setting up his afternoon show. Will have the gumps in full throttle for not praising them as the all mighty.

He was asked, last week after a week long anti Kiffen rant, if he was following a script given to him by ESPN & he danced all around his answer & never really answered the question. But he's all about clicks. At $2M a year.

One day people will realize that these ESPN shows are basically scripted and in show prep each person is told what their take of the day is. Then they rant accordingly
a fair majority of people on this board don’t understand how the media works, and never have. All the “they hate us” commentary and thinking that a TV announcer really cares deeply about something LSU does is laughable. It’s all just a show, that’s put on for entertainment.

Saban-nature


Kiffin was born and raised under one of the greatest NFL coaches of all time. It's wild how much this isn't brought up.

He coached under Pete Carroll in a top 5 run in the history of college football.

I thought what he did learn from Saban is stop being a cocky a-hole to everyone and get off of social media. He still hasn't learn that.

My favortite thing that Kiffin took from Saban is shooting basketball on the side line during the game.

Now preparation and next to no mistakes in the first game, yes, that did look like Saban. Saban was the best at preparation and recruiting.

Finebaum literally just called LSU a legitimate “national championship contender” and “the new IT program that nobody can take their eyes off of”. On today’s Get Up show on ESPN.

He stirs things up on purpose AND sometimes he participates in being the mouthpiece for Sankey
