re: How would you feel if your teammate got paid and then cost the team every accolade

You ever been through the state of Alabama?
Aside from the coast line, the entire state of Alabama is one massive shithole. Hell, the supposedly great t-town is nothing more than a glorified ghetto with absolutely no good restaurants to be found.

Ahh yes, the typical cajunbama response...
Without any logic, and full of childish emojis.

An article from Baton Rouge's The Advocate Newspaper:
"As Baton Rouge homicide rate exceeds Chicago's in 2017, an in-depth look at how, why"
BY GRACE TOOHEY, EMMA DISCHER and LEA SKENE

Did you say "shithole" and "ghetto"?

If I was a highly touted recruit... I'd be just as mad they didn't pay me as much.

They could honestly give a shite about what any of you think. They have been through hell together and when they get on that court it is something special. They all fn love Javonte and could care less what happens in the long run, no one will ever take that title from them in their minds.

Baton Rouge undoubtedly has its problems. But there is at least something to Baton Rouge other than a college football team.
I remember going to Tuscaloosa following the aftermath of the 2011 tornadoes. I thought that Baton Rouge’s ghetto population was bad. Nope... Tuscaloosa is infested with the most entitled thugs I have ever seen. And it’s about 95% of the “city”. Not to mention that when we go hunting in moundville, we literally have not one damn thing to do outside of hunting. Even though Tuscaloosa is right down the road. I know you’re upset, but the truth hurts baw...

This thread is about some much needed reality checks for some people.

"Baton Rouge lands in top 25 on America's 25 Murder Capitals list
By Rachael Thomas | November 15, 2017 at 8:25 PM CST - Updated August 15 at 9:17 PM
BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) - Baton Rouge has taken the No. 22 spot on 24/7 Wall St.'s list of America's 25 Murder Capitals."

Ya reckon?.................

Bessemer (#7), Birmingham (#20) and Gadsden (#87) find themselves on the undesirable list this year.

Here’s what NeighborhoodScout.com has to say about the three Alabama cities.

Bessemer

For Bessemer, we found that the violent crime rate is one of the highest in the nation, across communities of all sizes (both large and small). Violent offenses tracked included forcible rape, murder and non-negligent manslaughter, armed robbery, and aggravated assault, including assault with a deadly weapon.
• Residents have a 1 in 47 chance of being a victim of a violent crime
• Residents have a 1 in 8 chance of being a victim of a property crime
• Residents have a 1 in 116 chance of have their car stolen
• Bessemer’s safest neighborhoods include Pleasant Hill/Genery, Concord/Rock Creek and Hopewell

Birmingham

With a crime rate of 85 per one thousand residents, Birmingham has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes – from the smallest towns to the very largest cities.
• Residents have a 1 in 66 chance of being a victim of a violent crime
• Residents have a 1 in 14 chance of being a victim of a property crime
• Residents have a 1 in 205 chance of have their car stolen
• Birmingham’s safest neighborhoods include English Village, Forest Part/Redmont and Brook Highland

Gadsden

Regardless of whether Gadsden does well or poorly compared to all other cities and towns in the US of all sizes, compared to places with a similar population, it fares badly. Few other communities of this size have a crime rate as high as Gadsden.
• Residents have a 1 in 99 chance of being a victim of a violent crime
• Residents have a 1 in 12 chance of being a victim of a property crime
• Residents have a 1 in 189 chance of have their car stolen
• Gadsden’s safest neighborhoods include Clubview Heights, Turkeytown/Anderson and Bellevue/Tuckahoe Heights

All of these “cities” are close to Tuscaloosa. So as I stated earlier, Tuscaloosa is one big shithole filled with the most entitled thugs around.
