I wish he would just retire and F*&KING LEAVE. He is the ORIGINAL homer who actively pulled for one team over another. That, and he thought HE was the show and put himself and his assinine little "blurbs" above the game. To me - he was the WORST ever and I'm glad to see him GONE. He was NO FRIEND of LSU.
I guess I feel differently. To me there is little better (Thats not LSU of course) Then sitting in my LSU sweatshirt, a pair of flannel pants, socks, my dog in my lap, its cold and overcast outside, my dog in my lap, fire in the fire place. And watching College Ball with Keith Jackson saying Whooa Neellie.. Touchdown Alabama, or Touchdown Oklahoma... Love it...
He's a homer. He likes certain teams and actively pulls for them. He's a HUGE USC fan. He's also a big Michigan. Unfortunately, he's also a Oklahoma fan (though not as much as USC). I'M BETTING THAT - IF USC is winning the Rose Bowl, he'll berate voters for even thinking about voting for ANYONE BUT USC. If Michigan is winning, he'll subtlely suggest that IF Oklahoma loses to LSU, that voters should vote for Michigan over LSU. Watch for it. Why do you think a COMPLETELY UNDESERVING Charles Woodson won the Heisman. He was practically sucking Woodson's, well, WOOD, trying to get voters to vote for Woodson. It seemed like he did EVERY freaking Michigan game leading up to the Heisman. And, he was ACTIVELY lobbying for Woodson over Peyton Manning. And, IN SHORT, THAT'S NOT HIS F*(UKING JOB!
Damn, Tigerlaw was on my computer earlier. I posted "Actually, he was lobbyng for Ryan Leaf. WSU" but it showed up under his username. anyway, KJ went to WSU and was pumping Leaf up not Woodson.
Didn't see any of the Jackson deal on t.v. but I can't believe people are ripping on him.....did you expect him to be an LSU fan? What reason has LSU football given Keith Jackson to be a fan? Face it, LSU football has a great future but our recent past has not been all that great so we don't get as much respect from people in his position. Why do we insist on holding it against people if they're not LSU fans? Two points and I'll shut up: -This is the best time in decades to be an LSU fan, who gives a rat's ass what the talking heads say? I'm not letting that spoil my mood. -I like Keith Jackson, the man has been awesome and will always be one of my favorites.
whats up with all th kj haters? hes a good anouncer, so what if hes a homer, if he was one of ours we would be thrilled. completely underserving charles woodson? are you kidding me, get a life dude. peyton was an above average qb in college, woodson changed games. bottom line.
