re: Ryan Clark Notable Quotes from AFR

quote:

I posted this last night after listening to AFR

I listened to it. The problem is RC doesn’t realize the gas HE threw on the fire. States “ he doesn't want to talk bad about LSU, when he attends games he buys tickets in the stands...he doesn’t want to take anything from them...but if LSU needs him, he’s there! He’s gonna keep it real.”

Nothing wrong with keeping it REAL. But when you have a problem with a family member, a teammate, your coach, your team, a boss, the company you work for...you handle it internally and keep it real. You don’t go to social media and blast them. That’s not keeping it real, that’s being a bitch and causing a fire storm given your platform.

He’s an Ambassador for LSU and should act like one! If he saw a disconnect between coaches and players, then go to them and be that bridge to bring them together

Clark can’t have it both ways.

You can’t be a mentor, an advisor, a motivator to the team and be let into the team inner circle, and then go out into the real world and work for a boss who pays you to be controversial, insightful and an insider.
He can’t have it both ways. You can’t be an asset to the program , a part of the program, and still make money going on ESPN as an analyst telling it like it is.

I just wish Clark had the balls to make the same comments on ESPN that he does on AFR. He’s nothing but a pussy... he talks good but has a bigmouth that someone needs to shut... and yes Ryan I hope you are reading this..... you are a punk privpedge BOY...... anytime, anywhere. This old man will mess you up...

Agreed.

There won’t be much of a fight..... just a sledgehammer to the side of his head should do it......

So...he pours the gasoline and lights the match and then speaks in wonder at the destruction.

frick him.

He should’ve never gotten on Fox News, never wrote the book, never done 60 minutes, and shouldn’t have been standing in between the governor and the Vice President when Pence visited. He made himself a political figure and it became too much about Coach O and less about LSU. I don’t think RC made it any better but O should’ve handled all this a little differently.

Agree. To everyone pissed off at Ryan Clark and using language like "BLM March Bullsht" are still out of touch with reality. These players felt that way already as well as many of black people around the world. The fact that some of you think the march was "Bullsht" are a part of the root cause of this social issue in the country.

On one side you say, keep politics out of sports. Then, you defend O praising trump, but have a problem with players who have their own political views and social issues. If it's ok for O to praise trump, then it should be ok to march against systemic racism and police brutality or just call it a unity march.

It is reality. Black recruits and their parents have gone through a roll coaster of emotions that they felt connected to. It's funny watching some of you flip from "he is such a great tiger" to "fck him, he needs to shut up and dribble" when he stands up against these issues. Then you turn to the next recruiting class urging the black kids to come play for your favorite team, but fck his feelings. You will continue to be butthurt about black players standing against issues with police brutality as long as it happens. You're setting yourself up for disappointment if you think the next wave of black recruits don't have the same feelings.

You can either engage positively or continue to keep the division going. You don't have to give up being a Republican/Democrat to admit that some of these police killings have been unjust and stand in unity.

Haha what’s wrong with those quotes? He’s exactly right.
