Did anyone else hear Charles Tillman's introduction on Sunday Night Football? It is the one where each member of both the offense and defense say their name and the college they attended. When Tillman came up he state: "Charles Tillman...THE University of Louisiana" Emphasis on "THE" like when the say "THE Ohio State University..." Pretty cool.
