Not bashing LaVar, but where was he?

I didn't see any shots of him on the sidelines, I want him down there encouraging guys, challenging his teammates, and helping guys. Maybe he did, but I didn't see it. Think Ray Lewis would be sitting in a press box if he couldn't play?

I think nit picking about where Lavar was or wasn't is irrevelant. I'm sure had we won you wouldn't have posted this thread. Lavar wasn't the reason we lost this game nor was his absence greatly missed. Let's not become so ingrossed with finding a scapegoat for our shortcomings. Some of us as fans sometimes demand too much of the players while forgeting that these are grown ass men who do not enjoy sitting on the sidelines when they have the desire to go out there even if it further damages their injuries. Come on by now, you should not be questioning where Lavar 's loyalty is with regard to his teammates. Breath. :cheeky-sm Let it go. You can do it.
