I live in NOLA. I'm a die-hard Saints fan. I couldn't care less about LSU. Ergo, radio sucks. (1 Viewer)

I grew up in New Orleans, I went to school here from Pre-K through 4 years of college. I was watching Saints games with my Dad as far back as I can remember. I didn't go to LSU. Some of my family did (including my dad and my sister, in fact). I LOVE listening to Saints talk on the radio, but it seems like more often than not, when I tune in WWL or WIST, it's all LSU. You would have thought the world stopped turning when Jordan Jefferson got arrested.

Look, I understand there's a huge LSU fanbase in New Orleans. So I don't necessarily think there's anything wrong with featuring LSU stories on NOLA radio. So what's the point of this rant, you ask? Just to vent that it's freakin' annoying when I get in my car and feel like hearing some Saints talk, but it's all LSU talk instead. Do I think it anything should be changed? Maybe, maybe not. Am I going to get tons of "thumbs down" for this? Oh hell yeah. I'll probably set a new record.

LSU > Everything
Saints > Everything

thus...LSU love = Saints love

You are either with us or against us. If you don't accept LSU as your Lord and Savior, then you are a Falcons fan.

 

[Sarcastic]

All real Saints fans love LSU

that's funny, any time I tune into WWL it's a commercial.

I feel your pain bro'. I grew up in the "HOUSE OF TULANE". Both parents and my brothers and sisters went to Tulane. I was surrounded by the Green Wave. I was the black sheep and went to a college that did not have a football team. I grew up disliking LSU as much as the next guy. Let's hear some Tulane football info.

I've never liked the argument that louisiana fans should root for LSU because they're the best Louisiana football team. I grew up in Lafayette and went to UL so I have a similar feeling.

Lafayette is saints fans.
New Orleans is saints fans.
Baton Rouge is LSU fans.

I know there are saints fans in BR, especially now that theyre good. But it took a long time for saints tickets to sell out. The tigers have been playing in packed stadiums for a very long time.

Plus the corrupt Huey P Long is probably the biggest reason LSU is the richest school in the stat in the first place.

It's 1,000 times better than living in Texas and only getting UT and Cowboys talk on the radio 24/7.

Count your blessings, it could be much, much, much worst. LSU fan or not.

Not like LSU? Does not compute.

Hey, I lived in Fort Worth from 2000-2010. I feel (or felt) your pain.

I can tell you what will get WWL to talk about Tulane, let them win 2 NC's in 7 years with a chance to win a third in 8 years. Simple solution to your problem.


People like to complain about the attention that LSU gets but they get it for good reason. They are number ONE in the entire country.

SiriusXM cured me of that curse.

I did an experiment once where I randomly turned the station to WWL throughout the day, and I'm not kidding, 8 out of 10 times it was a comercial, and I'm not talking about just at the top of the hour. It is a ridiculously bad station!
