Shout Out to Scott Long at DandyDon.com. He is doing a great job!

Like most of us here, Dandy Don was my lifeline to LSU sports. I emailed him a question one time, and Mr. Long wrote me back that day and was very nice and helpful. I always enjoyed his updates.
I didn't read the site as much after he died, but I've been going back this football season and I have to say that Scott is doing a really good job. His Monday Morning Rewind has really good analysis (see 9/8). If you quit reading DandyDon, I encourage you to go back. He has features that his Dad didn't have.
Is this Scott's full-time job? Does anyone know? Or, is it a hobby? I know that they do the donation thing. Anyway, just wanted to give some credit where it is due and say that even though I miss the old man, he left his legacy in good hands with is son.

Wasn't great, understandably, after the transition. But you're right, it's turned back into a premium product.

Yeah, I think that he is hitting his own stride and is trying to bring some of his own insights to the site. When he first started, he was probably trying to just replicate what his Dad did. Now, it is becoming his own and I am going back there to read his thoughts. He seems to be developing inroads to the program on his own now, too. Anyway, good stuff.

Always the 1st or 2nd site I read.

I agree. Before the Rant, he was a must read to start your day. I still read him first thing in the morning.

He is continuing his Dads fantastic insight to LSU Sports.
Thanks Scott

Haven't visited in years since I found TD. Will return now.

Agree with OP's sentiments, went to DD website recently and was impressed. I too felt that it had dipped a bit after Don's passing, but is now better than ever. Scott runs a great LSU site.

Scott always had a web design company, it still operates and DandyDon is another project he does.

Dandydon.com has been my 1st website I visit everyday since early 1997 and I had Web TV back then.
Posted on 9/10/14 at 6:20 pm to AtlantaLSUfan

I knew Don and his wife. Great LSU fans and even better people. Never met Scott but I concur the site is in good hands and I read it every day.
