    Not really he was injured and it is obvious that he wasn’t running well. He didn’t exactly take the ole Miss game off. He re injured his ankle and rather than hurt him O protected him.

    The talk on nola.com is that Fournette missed those obligations because he was involved in some kind of promotion for St. Aug.

    Augustine’s prayer as a young man. “Lord let me be saved.....later”. He enjoyed his youth much before he became a saint. My kind of guy.

    Speak for yourself --- never too old to not be a saint.

    St Augustine is one of my favorite Saints...one of the greatest minds in the history of mankind.

    Inigo or Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Jesuit order of priests, also was a Spanish man prone to debauchery and rogue behavior. His mother died when he was young, and he was one of thirteen kids. At 17 he enlisted in the military and was noted for his womanizing and duels. He once dueled and ended the life of a Moor in a dispute over the divinity of Christ.

    Eventually he was injured badly in his legs at Pamplona. In his recovery he read extensively religious books and scripture and changed his ways. He forever walked with a pronounced limp, and his devotion for the Blessed Mother is widely expressed even today.

    You mean he wasn't drinking and drugging with a couple of hookers? What a blow to his street cred.
