    This morning's sports page of The Advocate was the worst I have ever seen. They only had 3 articles on last nights game, no post-game comments and no game stats. I have sent them a message about what I thought of that. I would love to know what happened.

    Printing deadlines for late games cause this a lot. It's better now with digital processing and internet transfer. 25 years ago it was all phone calls and faxes and the early paper had scant coverage. LSU moved the starting times for night games an hour earlier in the 80's because eastern newspapers couldn't wait for LSU scores to come in and LSU was getting short coverage nationwide.
