I can't believe the overreaction on the part of some.
A: Ryan Anderson fits the "hateful" moniker for the defense. If you listened to him talk you'd get that he really didn't like the competition and that's part of what motivates him. To tell him to turn that off when a guy comes into a bar that's right in the middle of Alabama territory is a bit much in my opinion. He doesn't like the players on the other team, good, he played like he didn't like them and no one complained when he did that.
B: No harm no foul. No one hurt Watson, there was no fight, he was just asked to leave.
C: We really don't know the full story. What Watson might have said in one of the two games, before, during, or after. What might have been said at the bar. May be Ryan just doesn't like him because he was on the other team, or may be there was more to it than that. Let's not pretend we know.
Having said all that, I'm honestly tired of the classy talk. What is classy anyway? I mean seriously, does it mean we don't cheer as loud as other fanbases? Does it mean we sit down the entire game? Golf claps when the other team is out there because we don't want to be rude? Honestly, we should be more worried about supporting Alabama than about being classy, LSU fans are not famous for being polite, but they are famous for making their stadium a tough place to play in. May be the fans should adopt Ryan Anderson's attitude... we shouldn't cross the line, but Ryan Anderson didn't cross the line. At worst he asked a player for another team to leave, big deal. If Watson really wanted to hang out in Tuscaloosa bars, perhaps he should have accepted Alabama's scholarship offer.
