Powerful statement

[Zeebart21]

Me thinks they are preparing for the eventual loss of the printed word like the TP in New Orleans and being proactive. Almost ten bucks a month seems a bit pricy for what was free in the past. When you subscribe to a printed paper a lot of your purchase is for the actual cost of printing and delivery. The ads pay for most of the rest of the papers content.

Where is the cost of production? Are they going to not hit me with pop up ad after pop up ad? I think not. So now I am expected to pay for production and delivery that is now minimal, and still endure ads.

Jerry, I think we can both agree that we get much better info from Cajun T and Josh on the Scout site. No great loss w/o the "late, great" Advertiser.

Cajuns place three on West All Star team, Corbello, Landry, and Haughton High McDowell.

Felps of St Amant looks like a good prospect, but did not make the East team as two of her teamates made that team. Voinche' did not make all stara team as well. Bet in three or four years these two will be talked about because nobody but UL wanted them, and of course they dominate as ususal.

Apparently, every conversation around the high school softball concession stands aren't identical.

There are concession stands???

I was referring to Uncle Johnny's ice chest and Aunt Marie's daiquiri she won't watch a sports event without.

Hey Z, all you have to do is a google search of the title of the Advertiser's article. It comes up at other sites, including The Shreveport Times. You get it for free. roar

To be accurate, which he is not, I think Earl says we no longer own Baton Rouge. Last I checked we never owned Baton Rouge. By the way perhaps Earl should take up the character on NBC, My Name Is Earl, who spends years udoing some of the evil things he has done prior to winning a lotto. Naw, he will never change, just a bumbed out yard man.

Apparently LSU may own Baton Rouge, but decided to recruit a lot more national players because perhaps the Baton Rouge players did not meet their high standards. I guess Assension Parish, and Livingston could be considered Baton Rouge, and we are doing well in that case, still.

Come out earl wherever you are???? Haha

Let me think this through. Signed POY in Louisiana, and runner up to POY. Yea, I call that pretty amazing.

Congratualtions. I will enjoy cheering on the Softball team for another great season.

Sam Houston's Baylee Corbello - not Louisiana-bound pitcher Sara Corbello from Barbe - was named 2012 Louisiana Miss Softball. (Sara did beat her out for District 3-5A MVP.)

Sara Corbello was Louisiana's Gatorade Softball Player of the Year in 2011, but the 2012 award went to Baylee Corbello.

Still great news to get Shellie Landry and Sara Corbello!
