My two best friends at LSU were from the north and had never attended an LSU - Ole Miss game until 1976. LSU won that game pretty handily, as I...
1973-1978. Should have graduated in 1977, but took the five year plan.
It's just hard for me to get so worked up over Trev Alberts, Kirk Herbstreit or any of the other empty-suit, talking-head, ex-jock dodos that the...
May God bless and sustain you and your family. Look forward to the good days that are ahead!
I'm not in a position to know these things, but I presume Sid Crocker has passed on to that big PA booth in the sky. Can someone confirm? Sid...
Interesting (and typical) that the Saints' two retired numbers (Taylor and Atkins) are for players who only played one year with the team and made...
You may recall that you could get a double dose of John Ferguson for a while in the 70s, as he called LSU games on Saturday and the Saints on...
I called play-by-play for 11 years in Div. 1-AA, nearly always without computer monitors or spotters. I always felt that preparation was the key...
I never met a root beer I didn't like (the exception being Fanta, which tasted like nuclear waste). Barq's, Dad's, Mug, A&W, Frostop, Abita - I...
Wow, that's pretty strong. Seems to me the guy is just asking a question, maybe not the most informed question, but it seems pretty innocent to...
Several years ago I heard a great interview gaffe on the radio after a minor league hockey game in Roanoke, Virginia. Roanoke's general manager...
Dry rubs? OK, I've had them a couple of times, and I don't mind saying they were pretty darn painful.
I don't "love to hate" anyone ... but I do "delight to despise" anyone who ever played or coached for Tulane, i.e. Mack Brown. The only exception...
Dan, I guess it is all a matter of taste, and your opinion is no less valid than anyone else's. To me, LSU's white uniforms are among THE classic...
"How 'bout some beans, Mr. Taggert?"
Can't believe I am admitting this, but I don't drink beer anymore. My intake had been way down in recent years and I just completely lost my taste...
There are no Jack-in-the-Box, no Checkers, no Rally's up here in food purgatory. So of the given choices, I have to go with the 99 cent Whopper...
Yep, count me in as bi-fowl too. I like it all, as long as it is fried right. Plus, I like fried chicken livers. The latest issue of Southern...
Does anyone know if the Triple Play is still open? It was/is on Veterans near Clearview. Fairly tough bar with pool tables. Best burgers I ever...
The Bud's at City Park has a quirky old ambience to go with their awesome burgers. You are right about the fries: just plain awful. But the...
