She is just too stupid to be a beat writer. She is given answers to questions during 1:1 interviews, writes about it, then openly asks the same damn question that was covered in another interview during a press conference.


She was hired because she is a woman. It was obvious she didn't know sports.

I’ve never understood why people care so much about reporters sharing their personal lives. It is their social media. If she was good and likeable, no one would care.

What the frick gives you any right to trash her?

You trashed the baseball team all last season and especially the postseason. STFU.

I like to keep things positive on here, but I think the fraction of people dealing with anxiety & depression is growing because of social media.

Social Media is the scourge of young women and girls in today’s world. We would be better off without it. That is no exaggeration.

In related news, LV has returned to Twitter after taking a mental health break because she got buried (and later fired) for saying stupid shite about the team she was covering on Twitter


She was melting on Twitter hard for a while. There were quite a few hard legs wanting her to come back to baton rouge. She ate that up for a while. One day she'll learn that being an attention whore won't get you anywhere in the long run.

She can have a personal Twitter and a work one. I'm sure people would still find her personal one and attack her, but in that case I would think the people following her around are the scumbags. You can't seak attention, like she did, and then be offended about everything.

She never got fired, she made that comment while still working for whatever news company she worked for covering the Longhorns.

Can’t she go cover a team I don’t watch?

It’s amateur hour with her.

I’m happy they hired Koki. The LV hate here is typical rant shite where everything has to loved or hated and there is no in between. LV may have posted pics of her boots and triggered some baws here, but her Twitter account was where we all got info when something was time sensitive: Lineups, rotations, magical weather delays, etc.

And here is the typical white knight.

My issue was her obvious lack of knowledge, her overblown sense of self-importance given her lack of knowledge, and her shitty attitude all around.
