"As Miles lauded Western Kentucky's running back, Sid did what few probably have the nerve to do, and that is interrupt the coach mid-sentence. "We have a decent running back also,'' Sid told the coach, at which point Miles laughed and said, "We have a really good running back, not decent, we have a great one."
Miles, who previously told Sid ""Life is not how long you live, but how well you live it," told the teen today, "When you get to Heaven, save a spot for me." Sid told him he hoped to live long enough to watch the Alabama vs. LSU game in Tuscaloosa on Nov. 7. Miles said he would help Sid get to the game if possible, and Sid's parents, Scott and Lynn Ortis, are all for that. "If he's alive and up for it, we'll take him wherever,'' Lynn Ortis said. "Sid gets whatever he wants right now."

People can say what they want about Les, but he is a class act and I wouldn't want any other coach in the country.

Breaks my heart and makes me realize what a selfish, whining piece of shite I am. Great link. I appreciate it very much.

I got a lot of respect for Les. LSU and the SEC are lucky to have a guy like him roaming the sidelines.

I hope that boy makes it to see that last game. Although, I want the Tide to roll, if Les and LSU give that boy his dying wish I wouldn't be too upset about losing.

MIles has always been awesome with stuff like this because he is so personable. It puts things into perspective when you here a teenager tell Coach Miles that he hopes to live to see the Alabama/LSU game. And all of us here have the audacity to think winning a football game is a big deal. Shameful.
