    Louisiana governor threatens future of LSU football

    While campaigning for a tax increase, Louisiana governor John Bel Edwards said the LSU football team is in jeopardy of being cut.

    "If you are a student attending one of these universities, it means that you will receive a grade of incomplete, many students will not be able to graduate, and student-athletes across the state at those schools will be ineligible to play next semester," Edwards said. "That means you can say farewell to college football next fall." The state of Louisiana is facing a nearly $1 billion deficit, prompting Edwards' rhetoric. He also threatened that the state would be forced to shut down hospice services if new taxes aren't approved soon. Louisiana residents need not worry about LSU football going away. We aren't sure what will play worse among Edwards' denizens, the threat of axing the Bayou Bengals or the threat of yanking treatment for the sick. One way or the other, if Edwards gets anywhere near the beloved LSU football institution, he'll find himself clearing out his office soon thereafter.

    Isn't LSU football above all politics in Louisiana? Zero chance they shut down LSU football.

    He just took office, so there is no way he has to worry about anything. He is a Democrat, and those crazies are liable to do anything. 10 to 1 says that this is nothing more than a bluff, but would YOU trust a Democrat? I sure as hell would not.

    better off without em.... baton rouge a dump, the school's second rate at best; if they couldn't buy tx talent they'd be of the same caliber football wise as the rest of the schools from the state, most all of which have a direction (or two) from a compass in front of their name

    The fact of the matter is that the majority of people in Louisiana could give a s**t less about football. Just because you guys think that it is the greatest thing on hearth, does not mean that the majority of people do. Wake up and smell the coffee. You guys really do not know very much, do you? This is a ploy to get a tax increase, but if it fails, LSU can say good bye to football for at least one year. The fact of the matter is that Louisiana, and the much of the South, for the most part, are nothing more than a bunch of broke hicks who drink their arses into oblivion.

    All the people in Louisiana like to do is drink burbon, eat butter, and watch football. Take one of the 3 away and your career is over

    LSU actually makes money for the state. You would lose even more if you got rid of it.

    You really believe your own bullshit? I've never seen a more ignorant guy spout off about various subjects and be wrong every single time. At least jj is on the joke that he is a clown. You on the other hand, are just flat out dumb. I'd say I feel bad for your wife for having to live with a clown like you but we all know that your girlfriend is your left hand and it is probably hoping to get mangled in some accident so it can be done with you as well.

    LSU football will play this season. Regular students at many state universities in Louisiana may get the screw job on lack of many classes due to budget cuts though. In reality it is just shock rhetoric to get constituents attention so they let their local politicians to get their shit together and figure out how to trim the massive budget deficit that shitbird Jindal left the new governor with.

    Big shock......Jindal is a Republican.

    Another dumb, stupid Liberal "Brother" shooting his ignorant mouth off. It is idiots like you who elect arseholes like Obama and then blame any Republican that you can. Typical Liberal Black rhetoric. You are just another dumb Liberal Clinton lover who is afraid of losing his handout. By the way boy, the only thing that is going to get mangled is your face if you dare come out here. Stick to your hole in the ground in Louisiana. That's where people like you belong.

Done that. I suggest that you find out just who you are talking to. How many people have you killed, big mouth? Just another dumb arse talking trash. You guys are a dime a dozen.

    So let me get this straight. Louisiana has a budget defecit of some 940 million now, but expects this to more than double to 2 billion by July 1. So the new DEMOCRATIC Governor is threatening the REPUBLICAN Legislature with the demise of LSU Football unless they rise taxes. Isn't it rather funny that Louisiana elects a Democratic Governor and this huge financial disaster suddenly appears. Oh yea, did I mention that Louisiana has a black population of over 33%, the second HIGHEST amongst the 50 States. Coincidence? You decide.

    A BigDaddyQH ghost would just be too damn obvious for so many reasons, including multiple posts of stupidity; but I just can't imagine a BigDaddyQH supporter. Then again, Hillary Clinton has supporters so who the fuk knows.
