re: Question for the old time LSU fans
Posted by Cowboy Tiger on 5/10/22 at 2:50 am
I was at NLU about the same time Duper was at Northwestern. I don't know the whole story. However, I think Duper was more of a track guy to begin with even at Northwestern.

re: Why can't Arkansas be a football powerhouse?
Posted by Cowboy Tiger on 11/12/21 at 11:08 am
My son and I had a conversation about this recently at least in the context of a comparison to LSU. He graduated from Arkansas. "My response to him: 45 minutes south of Fayettevile, you find Fort Smith. About that far south of Baton Rouge you find New Orleans". Their football playing population...

In person, I saw Doug Flutie against Houston in the Cotton bowl, Bo Jackson against Texas A & M in the Cotton bowl and of course Joe Burrow numerous times.

I worked as a lifeguard that summer making about $3.50. My brother worked blowing insulation for a homebuilder making 25 cents an hour less. He still resents me over that summer. :lol:
My brother and I shared a 1963 Plymouth Belvedere around that time with no A/C. It had push button automati...

I don't know if it will or not! However, you forgot one cause if it does! Legal immigration will probably be the number one factor.
I work on a corporate campus in DFW with approximately 12,000 employees. Mostly Indian food is served in the cafeteria to please the inhabitants.

I'm pretty sure that West Monroe played Midland Lee during at least one of those seasons and beat them pretty good.

I agree. I do believe there are three or four more right there with him. Unfortunately, with each passing day I believe more and more that W. Bush ranks right there with LBJ, Obama, Carter and Wilson.
