re: LSU great Ben Simmons shoutouts his old team

Philly fans are truly fanatics (assholes really)about their teams. The man’s college squad has a HUGE win. Those fans need to get over themselves! Simmons shouldn’t have deleted but instead just tweeted a funny “Bruh” meme.

The rant told me he hates LSU
Why are you lying?

He hated college, but if he had to call one home, he still chose LSU. He hated us less than everywhere else.

That's not comparable at all. Melting over a regular season loss in the NBA is beyond stupid.

Only SAS would ever reply with a gif of himself.

As someone who grew up in Washington DC following sports very closely all I have to say is frick Philadelphia and their fans of anything.

Ben loves the "gold and purple."

It's just impossible to deny this fact.

I know that, but when was the last time Ben tweeted about UC Riverside basketball? (His godfather is the head coach there)

That’s not actually Stephen A’s account

Who fricking cares? Players go to different schools for different reasons. Tremont Waters had never set foot in the state of Louisiana until he signed with LSU. He was going to Georgetown until Thompson was fired and Wade, who had recruited him, contacted him about coming to LSU.

How much love and affection do you think players have before they go to college? 99% of these kids didn’t grow up fans. They all went where they went for one reason or another. I don’t know why you think it’s relevant that Simmons chose LSU for the reason he did. People are down voting you because it’s not a good point, not because what you said was inaccurate
You think Kentucky players go there because of their love and affection for Kentucky? Or do you think there’s another reason?

No one is denying it, but it doesn't change the fact that Ben Simmons obviously feels a connection to LSU more than any other college. That was my point.

Absolutely true. That is the only reason why he came here. However, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t pull for us over all other schools.
