Thank you, sir, for reminding me why I love LSU, and putting any hard feelings we all may have about a winning season into perspective.

You, your son and that story just made my day. That letter should be printed on page one of every LSU game day program. Thanks for sharing. Geaux.

I still have a lump in my throat.

God bless you and your son - and my thanks to all those folks who made such a great day for your son.

This kind of thing puts a silly game like football into perspective.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for putting things in perspective. Football is very important to us LSU fans, but not the most important thing.
