lol, He used to piss me off all the time. I would yell at my radio while driving. One day, not sure about the exact moment, but I realized what he was and now I turn him on if I need a chuckle. Mostly, I just dont though.

I guess I just don't find him that entertaining.

I can remember when he made an arse of himself on ESPN Gameday Live. Herbstreit completely destroyed him on area.

IMHO he has no real football knowledge. He is a name dropper and spits out stats that anyone can read. It seems like all he really does is entertain the dolts that call in to his show expecting some big revelation. Watching his show is like watching paint dry.

Finebaum is nothing more than a mouthpiece for Alabama Recruiting.

He doesn't like anything associated with LSU because We are a legitimate threat to Nick Saban. He is not objective at all. I bet he would not care for Saban if Nick won 4 NC's for LSU. The man is a wimp.

I wish someone would jam the 104.5 signal in Baton Rouge between the hours of 8 pm to midnight. I would like to personally shove a boot in finebaum's arse. fricker has it bad for Saban.

Finebaum is good friends with Marcus Spears. Had Ron Higgins on talking about the Spring game today. He's learning slowly that he has to cater to a wider audience if he is to survive for more then a couple years.

He was on the 30 for 30 about Bo, Barkley and the Big hurt. Said Bo broke a bat over his knee at auburn.


They used aluminum bats.

I'll leave this here.

What has he said that would piss off LSU fans? I've listened to him since December 2013, and he hasn't said anything negative towards LSU that I know of.

ETA: In an August 2014 show, he said his favorite stop on his book-signing tour was Baton Rouge. He loved visiting with the LSU fans, but of course Les Miles crashing the book-signing was probably what put Baton Rouge over the top.

A few years back he called Louisiana a cesspool. But later crawfished on that and apologized. I really think he made the wrong decision in the long run. He should of stayed in Alabama. Espn will eventually give him the boot

I performed a Google search and couldn't find anything. Not saying you made it up, just wanting to see how it was used in context. Finebaum seems like a fan of SEC Football and not a name caller.

His discussion today covered the LSU Spring Game. He stated that the LSU program isn't what it used to be, that the Tigers have been passed by the others in the SEC, including schools like Tennessee...

It's possible that Tennessee has passed us. Our QB play is horrible, and it shows no signs of getting better.

Then again, it's also likely that LSU goes 10-2 even with mediocre QB play and finishes better than teams like Tennessee, Arkansas and Texas A&M.

How hard up can the SECN be to keep Finebaum on the air everyday. That is some horrible tv

That is the stuff that only SEC fans watch, would have no audience in the West coast. I am glad SEC Network in not available in the West Coast (You have to subscribe to 300+ channels to get it).

Why is that? I wish.

Seriously, everyone takes the media too seriously. Finebaum's job is to rustle jimmies. By reading this (now) 3 page thread, I'd say he's done his jerb.

Good God Finebaum has rustled the LSU jimmies. Nobody watches the show, but every day there are retards whining about the show. The network knows what they're doing.

Agree. But as opposed to what? Certainly no NewOrleans broadcasters.
