I don't miss these types of press conferences either. But damn are they entertaining.

Sounds like you are getting worked up. You've gone on about it for hours now.

It may be nonsense to you, but others disagree.

Anyway, none of this matters because watching the NFL is like watching grass grow.

I posted about it an hour ago and have replied like twice.

It's actually not nonsense and it is 100% political and I disagree with literally any political statement written on a football field. I can watch and enjoy the NFL and I don't care who believes what, but most of all, I don't want right, left or centrist crap written on the field that should have nothing to do with any of that.

Also, would hate it if we put "Gus's fried chicken" in our end zone. Any slogan is not okay there for any reason.

Unless it's pilot because they give us money for cruitin.

So if someone wanted to write

"BLM MAGA CHING CHONG DING DONG" in our endzone so we could get 5 stars then I'm all about it.

That coach should sthu about schedules after this ish.

I bet as public as they’ve been about deliberately not going to play anyone, it’s gonna really hurt them in the committee’s eyes.

This is fair. That's what I would lobby for - less cupcakes. Gives you more valuable games to recoup too.

This is actually a great suggestion. As Josh Pate says get rid of neutral site games.

I’m curious, what are they saying about his leadership on the field? I always felt Nico’s presence on the field didn’t scream leadership in the way Hooker and Milton did, although I would have preferred Milton be less goofy at times.

Heard repeatedly he's a good teammate.

I liked football better when all it took to have top players was a SS Camaro from Beaty Chevrolet and a few hand$hakes or free tacos. Handing out millions and subsequently having ticket prices increasing exponentially for some nincompoop and his fatass dad leave cause the millions they got wasn’t enough just doesn’t make for fairness.


We’re paying for an uncapped arms race, not necessarily production. Full-time free agency too. This is the worst pro model anyone could dream up. It’s creating a bubble and I’m not going to be sad to see it burst.

Who knew it would take football ticket prices for many to recognize that market inflation across many sectors is far outpacing wage increases.

Danny White is just following the numbers, and to a degree he HAS to to keep this thing afloat. We aren't getting priced out by him, the average Joe is getting priced out by wage stagnation and increased cost of living.

Finally.... a little common sense!

On the other hand I forgot my ticket at home, drove to Knoxville, and had to buy a second one at the gate from a scalper for an LSU game way back in the day. $5. Why? I bought at kickoff, we sucked (on our way to a 0-6 start), it started pouring rain, and the game was on TV (which wasn’t always the case in those days). I was rooting the boys on as best as I could in my poncho, but we got crushed.

I don’t ever want another $5 ticket.

I was at the same game sitting in an LSU section. I was constantly pelted by the chunk ice that was in drinks back then. I had to find other seats before half time . LSU fans are the worst. This was with them totally dominating us on the field…
I also never want to see cheap tickets again. I got notice today that season tickets are going up 4% for 2026. Sounds better than most things I buy.

He just turned 17 like two months ago and he's already got a kid? Damn. Glad his talent is going to help afford it at least.

Unless I'm reading this wrong and they don't mean she's his kid.
