Supposedly Buffalo Billiards in nearby DuPont Circle is the new place to watch Saints games. I heard it gets pretty rowdy. I would stay away from the food there, but there are plenty of good restaurants and bars in that area.

Blue Duck Tavern is really good if you are looking for something fancier

The Sovereign in Georgetown has good Belgian food and a great beer selection.

Founding Farmers and Farmers Fishers Bakers are both good. Owned by the same group

Spending four nights in Paris later this month. Any lunch and dinner recommendations?

Does the FDB prefer a wet or a dry brine for turkey?

Also, should I salt the turkey after brining?

I've been looking at that turkey guide on amazingribs.com, but wanted to get the boards opinion as well

Fournette had 127 total yards and scored a touchdown against arkansas last year. Averaged 4.8 yds/carry and 12 yds/reception.

Might want to ask if our oline and qb will show up. Cause you know Lsu's defense will shut a one-dimensional Arkansas offense down

Have you even watched any Lsu games since etling has been the starter?

Two of the things that he excels at over Brandon Harris is his awareness and mobility in the pocket and his ability to make multiple reads and find the open receiver while under pressure.

Whether LSU offensive line can form a pocket at all and give him enough time against this defense is the question you should be asking

Weather is supposed to be beautiful in DC today. I would recommend anywhere outside, like one of the beer gardens. Dacha or Garden District. Or go sit at Pearl Dive and eat some mussels. Lots of good places around 14th street. Church key is great for beer.

If you're around the hill try Capitol lounge, bullfeathers, or tune inn

If you're in northwest you could try sitting down by the waterfront but the drinks aren't cheap. Also try martens tavern in Georgetown and roofers union in Adams Morgan

The last time I made gumbo my roux separated after I slowly incorporated the stock. Some of it rejoined after simmering for a couple of hours, but there was still noticeable separation when finished.

I loosely follow John Folse's chicken and sausage gumbo recipe which calls for a roux made from 1 cup oil to 1.5 cups flour. Any tips to prevent this from happening again?

Also, the recipe calls for 3 quarts of stock but I made my own and didn't make quite enough, so I just added some extra stock I had in the fridge and not sure if it added up to exactly 3 quarts in the end. Don't know if that makes a difference.

Thanks in advance for any help

You sir are referring to the 'Vocal Minority'. Alot of fans love Les for what he brings to LSU and the game of college football.

I'm getting tired of this vocal minority line. I'd say after this season it is closer to 50/50, just from talking to all the lsu fans I know, meet, and associate with in real life, some of which used to be staunch miles supporters.

And its not that the 50 percent that would like to see him go don't like the man. I'd say a large majority of fans would agree that he is a genuinely nice human being who has done great things for the program. He has had a great, LONG run at LSU.

But unless there are better results this season, then I think much more than a "vocal minority" would like to try something different.
