How so?

He cheers for the program from afar in a token way the same way LeBron supports Ohio state. He's not a Billiken.

Alright, fair enough. I would like to know when this was taken. After SLU won the A10 tournament?

Once again, he's 120% NOT a representative of Saint Louis University or the basketball program. You can say he is all you want, but show me how he has been a representative of Saint Louis University.

What?! I get it, he's from St. Louis. As a native St. Louisan, you probably get some good feelings seeing one of your own making it it big. However, St. Louis and Saint Louis University are two very separate things. He reps St. Louis not SLU. Do you really think Jayson Tatum is telling Larry Hughes Jr. to play for SLU? LeBron James reps Akron, OH an awful lot. Have the Zips landed any high profile recruits because of it? Tatum doesn't give a about the Billikens. If he did, there would be a Billiken on his hat. He loves the city he's from, but if given the opportunity to funnel a player to Duke or SLU I feel confident he's going to help out his alma mater, not SLU.

It's a good thing for the Billikens? Why the hell do we let this punk into our gym? HE DIDN'T PLAY FOR US! That's like letting the girl who dumped you for another guy come over once a month for a massage. I've never seen him wearing SLU gear in a post game interview. I do see a lot of Duke stuff though.

Those are a lot of cherry picked empty stats from ESPN that further prove my point that he's an unjustified media darling. The youngest player to record 28 points and 12 rebounds in a Game 7? What an important and informative factoid. A casual observer can see Jayson desperately wants to be a superstar. Jayson kills the Celtics offense because he doesn't want to give up the ball. He wants to fill the box score and be the hero more than he actually wants to win. He should have passed the ball at the end of regulation in Game 1 to the open man. You can see Brad Stevens screaming at him to push the ball in transition but he refuses to allow an easy bucket go to someone else. I also want to point out that they are playing in a bubble... Without any fans. Everything in this postseason is an anomaly. Finally, I'm not perfect, I've played my fair share of games in relationships, but no one would ever mistake me for a "family man." When you play two women (one being your baby mama), dump one to be with your baby mama (sort of commendable), then dump your baby mama for an R&B singer, I find all the articles declaring you a family man to be largely manufactured to help your image. I don't like the guy, I was wondering how STL Billiken fans viewed him. Now I know.

Sure. Right up there with James Harden who is also insufferable.

Ehh. To me, he seems like the type of guy that goes out of his way to make himself appear like a stand up guy. Plays ball like an entitled brat.

Why?

As I watch the Eastern Conference Finals, I'm really starting to dislike Jayson Tatum. Between spurning the Billikens, the constant whining, and the fact that he's the the new ESPN golden boy without accomplishing anything, I really hope he and the Celtics get swept by the Heat in the most heartbreaking way possible. That's all. Go Billikens!

Yes. It accomplishes a lot. We need to be social distancing right now to slow the spread and allow the healthcare system to be able to handle critical cases.

We're going to have to beat St. Bonnie before we worry about Dayton.

Basically, this team just isn't that good.

Another Billiken Bummer.

looks like they're afraid to challenge the shooter now.

nope

WHAT!!??

Billikens cough up another lead!

Bummer.

????

Anyone getting the ESPN+ stream yet?

Last year any game that was on FSMW was also on ESPN+. Anyone know if that will be the case again this year?

Unreal watching Loe against Giannis.
