i'm thinking y'all win that game, if not for the hurricane. god knows you were due. let's do one of those poll things y'all love on this site and see how the membership breaks down. all who say ul wins but for rita vote "ONLY CHARTER MEMBER OF D-1 TO NEVER BE IN A D-1 BOWL GAME BUT WOULD HAVE IF RITA HAD NOT HIT JUST BEFORE LSU GAME;" all those who think lsu would have won anyway vote "nah, we suck before, after, and during hurricanes and, really, all manner of meteoroligical events."

i'll keep everybody posted on the running total.

turn that dagger...it hurts soooo good.

I give you the post Katrina "because we were so distraught we threw beer bottles" award!!!!

my son is still waiting on his counterfeit 50....

Yeah, I can't believe if you were in BR looking to name an award " to recognize the best newly published African American writers from across the country" that you would pick Ernest Gaines. Even though he's a great Black American author and he's from Louisiana, New Roads no less-they should not have considered him due to his ties to Lafayette and UL. What thieves ... How could he have been complicit in such pilaging?

Seriously, props to Mr Gaines and his realtionship to UL. I fail to see any big deal about naming an award after him. It appears to be fine with him and I seriously doubt if a group in New Orleans, Atlanta or Memphis had chosen him as the namesake for such an award (for which he would be no less deserving-except for the proximity of his birthplace) the same allegation would be made.

_ Has anybody ever seen this before???

Ernest J. Gaines Award.

Newscopy saw it. LINK


However, your style gets Mr. Gaines a little more play/pub

_ OK-how did LSU develop women's basketball by hook or crook? Should we have not played or recruited because Tech had a good program? 22 years of hard work by Sue Gunter. Guess we should have told Simoene Augustus to go to Tech. _

It was a plot I tell you, a plot. A slow moving one, but nevertheless a plot.

Keep this under your hat, but we taking the pharmacy program from the Warhawks as well.
