It is behind their wall but essentially he said she chose to put her team ahead of her as a 12 y/o.
Says she has always spoke her mind and have caught criticism for it. Talked about the post likely altering their article and how the LATimes had to write an apology. How she is proud of La and came home to be with the people here and win for LSU and La.

In this case Landry is wrong and owes her an apology.
quote:

Landry should consider giving Mulkey a public apology over such a blatant political play — especially when he attended an NCAA tournament game at LSU and could see that the Tigers weren’t out for the anthem in that game, either. As an attorney, Landry must know that forcing student-athletes to stand for the national anthem — while perhaps preferable and certainly respectful — is unenforceable as a freedom-of-speech issue. From my perch, it does not appear that Landry has gained the political capital he hoped for with this stance and with this criticism of Mulkey. For his political sake, he should hope this whole episode does not make her want to walk away from LSU, where she's been a wildly popular figure from Day One. More popular than he is. Especially now.”


Said that she is more popular than him…

I’ve been turned off by Rabalais over the last 5 years…

But he may be trying to win me back.

Kudos, Scott.

Landry got punked by the sports media and LSU haters. Libs of Tik-Tok weighed in and she didn't know either.

They all need to STFU.

At this point, let it all fade away. No point stirring the pot. Just let CKM get on with acquiring more talent for the team.

Landry is such a lightweight loser. Voters in any competent state would have laughed him out of politics years ago.

The politician knew what he was doing: feeding red meat to the sheep portion of his constituency who are incapable of doing a little research and trying to understand nuance (like the fact that LSU football and basketball teams aren't routinely out for the national anthem and haven't been for decades). Mulkey just happened to be a political casualty. There's a greater chance of Caitlin Clark not being the No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft than there is that Landry will apologize.

There are no good politicians. There are just politicians who are not as awful as others. Sad commentary when this governor, as awful as he has revealed himself on this situation, is still a massive improvement over the socialist who just left office after 8 years.

Landry does need to apologize.

If you accuse LSU, Mulkey, and our team of something they didn’t do, not get your facts straight then double down on the lies after your USL ignorance has been exposed…all for the purpose of grandstanding, you should.

Landry should apologize. That’s what Christians with character are supposed to do.

Might be trying too much for whatever reason. I get a “This Story is for subscribers only”. I think it may be if you read more than a few of their articles is why that happens.

Thank you fellow USL alum. This guy didn’t realize what he did until his arse was exposed. He lost and she won. If she ran for governor, she would wipe the floor with his sorry arse. She is FAR more intelligent than that idiot.

If that idiot was smart he would have followed the political practices of John Breaux. He was one of the few Democrats I voted for because he was a conservative / moderate. Yes, I know that he did graduate from both USL and LSU.
So nobody is perfect.

Rabalais did not say Landry should apologize.

Huh? Tell me you didn’t read the article without saying it.

The article was about him opening his mouth and used the rest of the media as an example.

The title is literally “Scott Rabalais: Kim Mulkey gets lots of criticism, but this was unfair. She deserves”

Landry should consider giving Mulkey a public apology over such a blatant political play — especially when he attended an NCAA tournament game at LSU and could see that the Tigers weren’t out for the anthem in that game, either.

Every team in every sport all across America should be on the field for the anthem. If they’re not gonna be on the field, stop playing it before games how about that also

Mulkey and woke don’t belong in the same sentence. The sad thing is our governor threw probably the most conservative person in WBB under the bus with a half baked tweet.
