why does this warrant a 10 page thread? Joey B is a great QB and LSU hero. Always will be. But he's a liberal on the political spectrum. And that's fine, too. Doesn't diminish his football accomplishments.

Drew Brees lost a lot of fans once he involved politics. I'm still a fan of Joe, but I wish he would keep opinions like this (& about Mike the Tiger's cage) to himself so he doesn't lose fans.

So let me get this straight OT’ers; because an athlete has an opinion that you baws don’t agree with, he should shut up and just play sports. But if his opinion is the same as redneck baw nation, we celebrate him as a true patriot truth teller? Hypocritical much?

It's pretty much human nature. Certainly not confined to the OT. If someone says something you agree with you think they are smart. If they say something you disagree with they are idiots.

Let’s see if LSU fans give him the Drew Brees treatment

I'll still watch him play, but I'll just view him as weak. Doesn't take any courage to side with the media.

Yall are as bad as liberal SJWs trying to cancel anyone for wrongspeak that doesn't conform in lockstep with your own opinion.

Didn’t realize he spent enough time on campus to be familiar, guess because it’s near the football ops entrance

Joe knows football.

Joe should avoid discussing politics like it's a pass rush.

Former LSU quarterback Joe Burrow said Friday he wasn't a fan of the school's live mascot, a tiger named Mike VII, because he's against keeping animals in captivity.

Burrow was asked about the smash-hit Netflix documentary Tiger King. "Actually, I haven't watched it yet," he said. "I'm anti-animal in cage. So I'm not gonna watch it, I don't think." The topic then shifted to the Tigers' famed mascot. "Mike the Tiger is not my favorite part of campus," Burrow said on Pardon My Take.

I don't think he realizes how ignorant he makes himself look by saying things like "those crazy guns" & "I'm anti-animal in cage".

lacks sensationalism without context. Regardless, the tiger lives in a multi-million dollar habitat and receives top veterinary care from the SVM. Not sure why it would bother him, but again, he's a libtard so...
