Linking Sports and Louisiana Coastal Erosion

Today we read this headline. Coastal projects all lacking cash, expert declares

No one cares outside Louisiana which is strange since this is the biggest Environmental problem facing the nation.

How do we get attention. I think there should be a effort to enlist the Coaches at LSU to more importantly the Coaches and Players of the Saints and Hornets to take this on. Spread the word and adopt this cause as their own.

There will not be a New Orleans Saints or a New Orleans Hornets because there will be no New Orleans if we don't move on this quick. There will no great recruits from the Bayou Country to go play football because Bayou country will not exist anymore.

Perhaps someone would listen to Drew Brees, Sean Payton, and Les Miles, because no one is listening to the Governor or the Louisiana Congressional delegation.

So next time Brees is on Oprah or David Letterman he can give a shout out. HEY YOUR NATION IS GOING INTO THE GULF.

Enlist all the those LSU and other College players in the Big Leagues and the NFL. Get Terry Bradshaw on board maybe. Perhaps the average public will listen to them.

Heck what about the Manning Family. We could get ELI to do commercials up in New York. Maybe the New Republic will listen to him?
