    That's why I dropped my subscription.

    Hard to believe it still exists.

    I loved when we had great coverage from the likes of Josh and Luke. I saved a lot of clippings from big wins and have them in a box somewhere. Even when Buckley was there, it was something although it felt like he covered the Cajuns with a little distain.

    The advertiser is dead to Acadiana. The Acadiana Advocate is the paper now, which is hard to believe. Thank goodness for Foote.

    "The Daily Advertiser is the home of local news, entertainment and sports in Acadiana. Find out the latest on LSU football, basketball, politics, business, obituaries, comics and more."

    And who will take Foote’s place down the road. It will get here fast.

    There is the inadvertant and the blatant.

    The Advertiser's abandonment of their community is blatant.

    maybe they know that Tiger fans outnumber Cajun fans 10 to 1 in the community.

    just a guess

    They created the ten-to-one discrepancy in the community. (not real but I get your point)

    In the Early 1920s (before the SEC existed) the Advertiser created an avid Ivy League fan base through their coverage of Ivy League Schools. Lesson not learned.

    They missed the "advertiser" boat by sending advertiser dollars to foreign markets.

    Got a source for that? I realize we're going up against a 500 pound purple and gold gorilla, but I can't believe it's that lopsided.

    It is 100% that lopsided

    You'd be shocked how many people in Lafayette talk about UL as if they're the same "level" of sports as the Voodoo playing in Blackham

    "ZERO" What else are they not reporting on in the community?

    No source needed if you view Lafayette through a pair of 2020 glasses

    I have lived in Lafayette since 1985 with open eyes

    And to think in my USAF days I had a DA subscription to keep up with USL doings. Even though they were 10 days or more late in a couple of spots. Now, the digital version is a quick read. Obits, real estate and comics. Done.
    Thank you Kevin for hanging tough.
