This is a Special You Tube memory. It is the response of the LSU players, Coaches, and Staff to Katrina. It is getting to that point of the year where we need to remember both the victims and yes the heros. The good things and great character of the countless thousands did not get enought headlines in my book
LSU in the State and National Mags and Papers
The Clarion Ledger out of Mississippi has an article on the Season opener wiith LSU and Miss State. It is called MSU football: No barking.
A little quick LSU baseball news. This just post in West Coast paper. A real nice article on a guy we are getting from out there to play baseball. Looks like having a good football team pays off in other areas. It is called Ohlone's Helenihi to play for LSU.
The Advocate leads off talking about yesterdays scrimmage called Miles not happy with scrimmage.
The success of the LSU football program is watched by Coaches and fans of other programs. That is because it helps funds many of the other programs that don't make a "profit". This is good news. Another record broken in Season ticket sales. The Advocate has the story here.
The story of the day in the Advocate is Tigers seeing possibilities in each other. A very good article and another one that gives us all good feeling about Asst Coach Crowton and Flynn.
Oh Boy this is going to give LSU fans the REDS this morning. Take your medication before you read it :) Sport Illustrated has a Article that is all aboout Joe McKnight and how he looks like the second coming of Reggie Bush. Yes Joe Mcknight that decided not to go to LSU and went to USC causing heartache statewide. I like Joes till and had the pleasure of seeing him play in the state high school playoff. Still it hurts reading it.
LSU of course went through its saga with the wackos with the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals recently. I am sure they will make an appearance soon again. The Wall Street Jouranl has a great article on Live College Mascot and how fans go bonkers over them(like LSU). It also goes int how they are treated etc. Good read. It is called Animal House:College Mascots Get Luxury Dig. That article mentions LSU as well as other schools. IT also mention Southern and its project for enlarging the habitat for its jaguar.
On the Tigerdroppings one of the sports media guys in Baton Rouge mention the cute and great softball player for LSU ,Emily Turner, has been hired by NBC33/WVLA and Fox 44/WGMB . Turner will become the first female sports reporter on-air at a major local affiliate in Baton Rouge history. Good grief the first. That is behind the times for a city the size of Baton Rouge.
One other note from the Tiger Boards this morning. Yesterday I posted a article on our new Freshman player T-Bob. This thread is about fan day and how so many found him and Jarrett Lee coming from Texas so polite and classy at fan day.
Returning to the papers and mags. NCAA.com has a new article up today called For LSU, one eye on title, one on Tide.
On to the Blogs-
Dandy Don has a short post up this morning. Be sure to keep him and his family in your prayers today or if you care Catholic and going to Mass today for the Assumption. Also a special prayer for the soul of his sister in law that just died.
A lot of LSU blogs have not updated yet. If I see updates I will add it too this thread.
A louisiana Tech update soon
