The guy who called in was Kyle's brother, he goes by Rooster and is a real nice guy.

Somebody called into Jay's show later this evening and said that there is a good story to Kyle's cruise and his attempt to see the game on TV. The signal faded in and out but he was going to leave it to Kyle to tell the story. From bits and pieces that I heard, it will be good. From what I understood, it took him over 3 quarters to get the game. Maybe BOP can fill in and straighten out anything that I've heard wrong.

Oh its a great story from beginning to end.
Lets just say he will never use Royal Carib again.
Im sure he will fill everyone in when he gets home Sunday.

Its funny as hell.

So here is my take on the City of New Orleans and the ToiletPaper. Thank you New Orleans Bowl for doing what was in your best interest inviting the University of Louisiana.

Now if we win the crown, and IF we have a choice three things need to be understood before we come back.

A: The bowl selection committee needs to invite Louisiana's Ragin Cajuns and have as little to do with Lafayette as possible, and since they are not bound by the guidelines of the state it is entirely possible to refer to our school as the University of Louisiana end of discussion.

B: UL has more students, alumns, and players than any non metro New Orleans school except LSU in this state. The Times Picayune needs to step up and honor the people who put more money in their citizens pockets than anybody in the history of the New Orleans Bowl. Believe me Rouses has pull with the Toilet Paper, as well as every full hotel in New Orleans. They need more pre game coverage.

C: Yes the game ended late. So what? The paper could have had 95% of the stories ready for the final tally. In other words the game story should have been on the front page, and a nice follow up the next day with a couple of articles for the Monday editionl.

Hey New Orleans I am glad you realize we were your absolute best fit, now make sure you show some thanks for what YOU KNOW we can bring. Treat us nice like you do any other event you do not want to lose. Examples Souther/Grambling game, Essence festival. Just treat us in a fashion that does not insult our name, and you know it does, and honor our support.

Although San Diego isn't a destination city, I certainly wouldn't mind going there. It's a great sized city. Not too big but not too small. Not very difficult to get around especially compared to a place like LA. Decent nightlife (Gaslamp Quarter) and lots of other things to do. Weather is also great. I was just there about a week and a half ago and would love to go back. Although I'm sure many folks around here wouldn't have the same feelings about there as I do due to the distance and the price to get there.

Oh no doubt, San Diego is a nice city, it's definitely not Detroit in December. But it's not known as a party city like New Orleans. But then not too many cities are. Honestly, I'm not sure if San Diego is ready for an invasion of 20,000 UL fans!

I don't think New Orleans was ready for us this year ... here's to hoping they are ready next year as we bring 50k!

Considering the length of his normal call I bet the telling of this sorry has a least two commercial breaks!

I think a Cajun Invasion would make them lose their damn minds.

I am so disappointed in not meeting him----Never met the U-Conn man but maybe Kyle the Bandwagon guy gets a little vocal love------As maybe the husband of the world's greatest wife----I got a Baby G for Christmas yesterday---might have to start learning how to read----I'll miss the uprights that I have banged on for all these years--started at age 13!!!!
