http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/5328187.html Not about LSU directly, but folks around here have been clamoring for Pelini for a couple of months. I was at a happy hour for Ags (thanks to Mrs. NLMD) and just about all of them wanted Pelini. Well, it looks like they're going with Sherman. I hope he does a great job so it shuts up obnoxious UT fans, results in more interesting games, AND makes Mrs. NLMD happy. Because when she's happy, I'M happy. :hihi: :thumb:
Nope...Pelini's a Corn Husker. By the way.....what a stupid name..."Corn Huskers". They should name one of the Mississippi teams the Bean Snappers....we could rename one of the South Carolina teams the Peanut Boilers.....or how about an Idaho team being called the Potato Skinners...I know, we'll rename one of our teams the Cotton Pickers (How non-PC would that be?) "Ladies and gentlemen.....Your Louisiana Cotton Pickers!"....yep, that would be great. :thumb: "....and that's another Cotton Picking first down!" "Cotton Pickers Score!" We could be the Cotton Picking Nation, and raise a bunch of little Cotton Pickers. We could buy our babies little bibs that say "Future Cotton Picker" on the front, and put "Proud Parent of a Cotton Picker" bumber stickers on our cars.
Hell...if we want to be really specific...let's call the team the Welfare Check Cashers. Also, the state of Nebraska isn't even the best corn huskers...Illinois seems to be. http://www.illinoiscornhusking.com/allhtm06/nplaque.htm
Another one of those safe hires by the school AD that few people can get excited about. I thought A&M had deep pockets and would go for a coach with a National Championship?
Hey, You know what hit me as I was checking out this post? Dennis Green is available for coaching a college team!:grin:
"THEY ARE WHO WE THOUGHT THEY WERE!!" "CROWN 'EM":hihi: i think sherman is a decent hire but i'll never wish anything good upon a&m.
Jessie Jackson & Co. would put the stops to that- it's a reference to "Slave days and no different than the Rebel Flag". Ya dam cracker. I know, I know, my parents picked cotton too.
