I’m asking you, specifically.

Is there really a media bias against LSU?
Posted by TexasTiger08 on 3/22/24 at 7:28 pm
There’s supposedly an anti-Mulkey piece coming out. As soon as the ladies knocked off Iowa, it seemed like LSU became the bully.
This calls into question:
The Will Wade saga
The Thamel hit pieces on Les during the 2011 season.
The constant war with Dale Brown.
Am I missing any more? I...

[quote]I realized years ago that the most exciting and thrilling thing that can happen in a basketball game, will happen about 25 times in the game vs. a game like football where you can have a play happen that won't been seen again all year.[/quote]
There is merit to this as well. It’s why the d...

For me, the 2014 Spurs were peak basketball for obvious reasons. You still had an old school post player fitting into the modern flow of a game.
I find sports more entertaining when there’s a healthy balance of offense and defense. The NFL has issues with this as well at times. Baseball went thro...

[quote]So the game was at it's peak when the player you think contributed to the downfall of the game was winning titles? [/quote]
I didn’t want to give specific years, but Curry didn’t win a title in the “early-2010’s”. I guess depending on your definition of “mid-2010’s”, you could say he won a...

I wasn’t arguing that 90’s ball was better. Read my posts. I think the game was at a peak around the early-mid 2010’s. Steph Curry, as great as...

[quote]This idea that the basketball being played now is a lesser product than the 90's is just a nostalgia overload thing for people who were happy when they were a kid and miserable now as an adult. [/quote]
You’re confusing lesser product with less entertaining. I agree the athleticism is at a...

The pendulum swung too far in favor of offense. I was a 90’s kid, and I understand that maybe it was too defensive oriented. I guess I’m old man yelling at cloud, but seeing each team jack up 3’s all game isn’t very exciting. You may as well not watch a game until the 4th quarter, as no lead really ...

They will be a measuring stick. It will be fun. But LSU has more history with aTm than UT, not to mention the rest of the SEC.
Aggy and OU and Texas will form a nice little triangle of hate. LSU doesn’t fit into that group....
