Re: Devastating Day

A friend here with no ties to LSU or anyone opposed to LSU texted me he's just glad Reese now can go away. Small sample size, but I think it gives you the general settlement of the non-Louisiana ties population. They created their own drama, and when things don't go well, you have to live with it. S...

Re: Michael Pratt to Saints?

The Saints don't have enough picks and so many other needs that drafting a QB is extremely unlikely, especially with Carr now extended 2 more years (unless we pull a Payton and swallow the medicine ala Wilson). Their signing of Peterson suggests Haener and Hill will be the backup options in some ord...

Re: Baseball loses the UTSA Series 11-7

Huh?? You talking about the field dimensions? Or just that it was built? If the latter, that is no less absurd that tjtla's claim that hoops can't win because of Fogleman/Devlin. If you're suggesting building Turchin was a wasted investment, come on. It was built at a time when the program had fledg...

Re: March Madness more popular than ever

I've peaked at a Women's game here and there, but no more than I ever have. It's more like peaking at a wrestling match - hoping to see something sensational, like a fight involving LSU and Bayou Barbie or Kim Mulkey doing something absurd. But other than that, the women's games are mostly a foregon...

Re: Point of order... the season is over ....Hunter should be fired

Bottom line is talent wins. Who does this team have to lead the way next year? Forbes and Cross are gone, regardless of how talented they really were, they both helped win SOME games. Holloway and James are not capable of leading this team. Who's coming in? So we bang on Hunter for his lack of in-ga...

Most people aren’t following Livy Dunne because of her gymnastics prowess. (Another one I’ve heard has spent more focus on her brand than practice)...
