Billy Cannon, followed by Bert Jones and Casanova. I met Cannon when I was about 10 years old at a church banquet at which he was the guest of honor (can you imagine that now). I picked Bert Jones and his girlfriend up at the Shreveport airport in the early 70's because she was my (then) wife'...

Home team twice vs. Wake

Posted by kjacksonp on 6/23/23 at 11:07 am
Can anyone explain the sequence of home vs. visitor in the Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday games? Is it alternating between two teams and then a coin flip in the third game?...

I have an investment portfolio within a university retirement plan. When I retire I will need to move it to another site. I do not depend on this money for retirement, so willing to be reasonably risk-accepting with the thought that my heirs can benefit on the longer term. Any suggestions by thos...

I saw my first live game in 1956 as a six year old (A and M, lost 6-9). The most fun I have ever had watching LSU was 2019. '03 was fun, '07 was fun, '11 was fun until the BCSCG. But nothing compares to '19, and I remember '58 also. ...

Any team that can make LSU play a half court offense and not be able to get points off the fast break will have a better than even chance of beating them....
1998 Alabama LSU had not defeated Alabama in Tiger Stadium since 1969. Tigers led 16-7 late in game and gave up two long TD passes, the go ahead TD with 38 seconds to go. I don't get depressed over games, but I was depressed for three days after that giveaway....

There has never been a "killed" vaccine (not live attenuated like rubella) that has had reported long term effects that have held up under investigation. Pfizer is not a live vaccine, just a piece of protein from the virus. The risks are allergic, acute things, not long term. But the overall benef...
