Every year I see the SI commercial with the national championship package and think to myself "wow wouldnt that be great. Id order SI if we won the national championship." Well folks I wait even longer... today on ESPN at 9:45am, the USC SI championship package was offered. I am fuming pissed. F%CK SI, I swear my a$$ is so chapped right now. Not even SI can take our crystal away. I wont buy another magazine.
If you look on CNNSI.com, they are offering both packages. All I know is I'd better see the LSU package advertised very soon, or I'm going to be really pissed.
There is one for our Tigers too. Can't blame SI for cashing in on two Champs. https://subs.timeinc.net/SI/si_lsu....e_id=28&experience_id=62909&_requestid=322226
They have the LSU AND USC packages... but I have only seen the USC package advertised on TV so far. I think that is rediculous. I remember there being spots for both Michigan and Nebraska a few years ago (I think those are the teams that split). I'd better see the LSU spot soon.
I contacted them... This is my email. I am a huge LSU fan and for the last 2 days I've been watching sports stations here in town trying to soak in the glory of winning the National Championship. Well, I wake up today and turn on one of the sports stations and what do I see? The USC National Championship package. In understand that "we" (Meaning LSU) have to share a small part of our title with USC, but I think LSU's package should have come out first as they are the only team to receive a trophy on the day of their bowl that said "National Champions" on it. I can only wish that I would have kept my subscription a little longer in order to cancel it for this reason, but unfortunately I cancelled too early. I will never again subscribe to your magazine again. This media bias towards USC and against LSU is ridiculous. The AP trophy is comparable to a certificate for a free buffet at Shoney’s.
In their defense, they've had more time to put together the ad for USC, since it was a foregone conclusion after the Rose Bowl that they'd remain #1 in the AP. I'd give them another couple of days to put together the LSU one.
