There’s no way there’s another fanbase like ours, for all sports. In good and bad ways.

you make millions coaching baseball, being second guessed by a fanbase that gives a shite is part of the fricking job. Anyone who can’t handle that need not apply. I’m sure Jay knows that, so you can ease up on the simping.


Nobody is saying Jay Johnson is sad that people are questioning his moves.

People are just saying our fan base is really ignorant, which is spot on.

Could have been the right call for hai teams each year he did it. Nobody really knows except him.

Gotta say it’s been pretty funny watching all the “experts” shamelessly do 180s on everything they’ve preached all season long the last few days.

Been saying that for 25 years lsu fans are the worst and best at the same time. Also woefully ignorant about the sports they ‘love’

I got a free ride to attend LSU from out of state and got paid for my time playing for football and basketball. LSU ever pay you for anything, sidewalk?

Everyone of them do a podcast or speak on the radio (some do both) and everyone of them would consider LSU baseball their primary area of expertise.

All week long into the lead up to the regional, not one of them even entertained the thought of Skenes being used against Tulane. It was brought up by Lloyd on Mik’d Up yesterday that message board rumors say Skenes might pitch (shoutout Naptime) and Mikie and Jared laughed it off.

I have never seen a coaching decision so universally disliked. It was quite interesting.

OK. The arrogance of Jake has gotten out of hand. We are moving close to pre-game Sonic meeting.

Goat Nuts? Very juvenile of you, Jake. Juvenile even by TD standards. Shame on you.

Johnson studies all the angles. I’m sure if he had to he could demonstrate exactly why he chose Skenes for game one of the regional, but if you don’t think what he did was debatable and goes against the grain of conventional wisdom than you are the one that needs to learn a thing or two..

Wait you’re the idiot that took the L in those Jack Bech threads. Nevermind. We see how that panned out haha. Band geek.

LSU may have paid you, but it sure as shite wasn’t for talent evaluation.
