re: Protest tomorrow in front of the Union re: the failure to recognize the 1908 championship.
Posted by nvasil1 on 4/26/24 at 10:09 am
[quote]I was told, by oldtimers back in the 1960s (I was a kid and those guys were in their 70's), that our 1908 team had multiple players who were paid somehow for playing or weren't even LSU students at the time. Anyone else heard something like that? The implication was that LSU wasn't going to o...

I suppose people are downvoting optimistic posts about the Bears' future because they dislike Caleb, but it seems inarguable that this team has been set up for him to succeed sooner than later.
Three blown double-digit 4th quarter leads cost them 10 wins last season, and a good portion of that bl...

Don't forget their fielding is awful, too.

Chicago is in the express lane to becoming a new Detroit.

I don't know why incomplete pant stripes that only go three-quarters up the leg are still a design thing.
Also, the home blues have TV numbers on the shoulders, but the rest don't? The away and red jerseys have the bullhorn sleeves, but the two blue jerseys don't?
What a mess of a redesign....

I'm a little surprised at how much leniency FOX and SiriusXM gave McDowell for the second block attempt. The consensus seemed to be, "it's Talladega, you gotta do what you gotta do to win."
Okay fine, it's easy for us to armchair quarterback the move in hindsight, but still, I can't be the only ...
