One LSU fan at Charles Schwab on Monday won’t be celebrating the Tigers’ championship after getting brutally rejected by a hot babe on national TV.
Listen, perhaps it was the Jell-O shots doing the talking, but the Hail Mary proposal brutally flopped as emotions sailed high leading up to the Tigers’ first baseball crown since 2009.
The Baton Rouge babe stumped the gutsy fan’s proposal, with a simple talk to the hand wave, which the ESPN broadcast caught for viewers at home.
It was painful to watch.

OMAHA, Nebraska – And to the winners, the shots.
LSU followed its Jell-O Shot Challenge national title with a much more significant and healthier one Monday night at the College World Series. The Tigers beat Florida, 18-4, to win the national championship in front of 24,878 at Charles Schwab Field.
Neither was even close. LSU set the CWS record for hits in a game with 24.
During an NBA offseason full of trade rumors, perhaps no star player has had more speculation surrounding his future than Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard. Following a meeting on Monday between the seven-time All-Star and the organization regarding the direction of the franchise, Portland general manger Joe Cronin issued a brief statement Monday evening addressing the interaction.
“We had a great dialogue,” the statement read, per The Oregonian‘s Bill Oram. “We remain committed to building a winner around Dame.
ESPN’s Sage Steele has been battling her network after it punished her for speaking up against vaccine mandates in 2021. Steele filed a lawsuit last year, claiming ESPN violated her First Amendment rights by punishing her for “anti-vaxx” remarks. She also made a remark about former U.S. President Barack Obama, which ESPN didn’t find too favorable.
SAGE STEELE SUES ESPN — READ LAWSUIT HERE
In the lawsuit, Steele claimed that comments made on Jay Culter’s podcast in 2021 led ESPN to limit her time on air.
Jay Cutler told Sage Steele she was the “Candace Owens of ESPN.
Two weeks after she was harassed at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport prior to boarding a commercial flight, Mercury center Brittney Griner criticized the WNBA on Monday for allowing the travel situation to reach what she described as “rock bottom.
John Rhys Plumlee isn’t concerned with the amount of NIL dough that is hitting his bank account each month. Central Florida’s 22-year-old starting quarterback pulled a Tom Brady upon arrival in Orlando.
NIL is the heartbeat of college football in the modern era. Although money isn’t everything, it has always played a role in recruiting and that role is only inflated with the current rules.
Amateurism is completely out of the window. Players are going to the school that can pay them the most. Not all of them, but some of them– if not most of them.
Jaylen Waddle is one of the most important players in the NFL whose role seems to fly under the radar. With Tyreek Hill getting most of the attention on Miami’s offense, the third-year receiver has the opportunity to feast on mismatches on the second level.
Waddle has had 1,000+ yard seasons in each of his first two years in the league and is poised to be equally as crucial for the Dolphins this fall as Mike McDaniel’s team hopes to take the next step in the AFC East and beyond. There is a lot of excitement around the group in South Beach, especially if Tua Tagovailoa can stay healthy.

Florida baseball star Jac Caglianone was putting on a show during Game 3 of the Men’s College World Series.
Caglianone, who was pitching in Monday’s game but also plays first base and was the NCAA’s leader in home runs this season, delivered a devastating strikeout against LSU first baseman Tre Morgan to record the final out of the top of the first inning.
Caglianone’s fastball clocked in at 99 mph and was high and inside on Morgan, forcing an awkward swing from the left-handed batter who fell to the floor after whiffing on the pitch.
