Most sports enthusiasts like men's sports better, and that's OK!
It is just how it is.....it has been like that since existence.

Hate is the wrong word. In order to hate, you’ve had to have loved at some point.

Most people don’t care. Not, that they don’t want LSU women’s basketball to be successful, they just don’t care, or watch.

We all want them to be highly successful, but a lot of us aren’t going to watch them much, simply because it’s not something we care to watch.

Mad, love Conway, knew him personally since I was 6 graduated HS with my Dad. Had a crush on his daughter Joni , spent 4th of July with him 4 summers in a row. You hit a good spot for me on this Sunday.

A mindset of fouls turnovers bricks airballs and misses layups?


Yeah.
It’s a diff mindset I’d say


yep, accept all of the hype as if it's real sport, that they get televised in prime time tv slots, act like cocky prima Donas, fly around in chartered jets, and get NIL money, just don't expect to see anything, athletic, competitive, or entertaining

Only a very small vocal minority hate womens bb because they are idiots. While I am not to excited about the quality of ball played, I love that we win. It is great for our athletic department and our school.

Look man. Not all of us like to thatch anything but beach volleyball. Women’s sports bore me as.bad as bowling and golf. I will play them but it’s nap time watching fat chicks play soft ball or women with to much testosterone play bk. Hope they win but ho hum. Geaux Tigers.

I’d argue that more people hate men’s basketball. Our program is trash and a lot of people seem fine with that.

That’s my view. I hate it and want it to be trash.

The mcdonalds high school mens team can destroy pretty much any womens team from professional to college. Why would I want to watch that?



And any NFL team can beat any college team, so why watch college football? Why watch high school football. Why watch lightweight boxing? We have different divisions in sports for a reason. If you don’t want to watch the women play, that’s your choice, but your justification is goofy.

The US women’s soccer team is more successful than the men’s. But people seem to hate them. The reason why has nothing to do with success.

I get no enjoyment from watching women’s basketball. At the same time, I’m glad our program does well and others find it enjoyable.

I don’t think anyone “hates” women’s basketball. They just don’t care one way or the other. I personally have zero interest in women’s sports unless it’s the Olympics. I dont care about men’s basketball all that much either if it makes you feel better. Different people enjoy different things. It is what it is

This...right here...is why we need separate boards for each sport. It's baseball season now, who gives a rats arse about basketball. If you do,then you need to be among your own group and stop bothering us that don't. GTFOH

I hope every LSU team has great success, but women's basketball is indeed unwatchable.

Even at the highest level, it's a tough watch.
