My game story will be a little late

The Regions Park staff closing the press box windows while I was on the field for postgame interviews knocked my laptop off the counter top and broke it. I am trying to make alternate arrangements. Please be patient. Thanks.

That so sucks. They owe you a new laptop IMHO.

No problemo Carl.
Look forward to reading it when you get it finished. Sorry about the laptop.

Find a way or make a way, Carl!
Remember who said that line in south La sports lore?

Carl, if you need a laptop for tomorrow's game, I will be happy to loan you mine. If so, let me know. I'll check back on here regularly tonight and also early Saturday morning.
I'm staying at the Hyatt Place suites on John Hawkins Parkway about 3 miles from the turnoff to Regions Park.
ETA: What I'm saying is I have my laptop with me at the hotel in case you need it.

Hang in there, Carl... as Rosanne Rosannadanna would say... "IT'S ALWAYS SOMETHING!!!"... the stadium people should have had you a new laptop before you even had to leave the stadium tonight... screwing up and breaking your laptop is absolutely inexcusable... they definitely know better than that... not to mention the fact that you are a media representative, I am sure they know you around there, years of writing about LSU, SEC baseball, etc., and the LAST thing they want to do is to give you a big, bright, shiny, economy-sized industrial-strength screaming-flouorescent-neon reason to be unhappy with them...
p.s. thanks for all your hard work, time and effort... you put out more good LSU Baseball info then any other 5 writers... please keep up the great work!... (when you can)...

Cool. Looking forward to it and thanks again!

Hmmm - thanks for supporting LSU?

horseshite... If an LSU writer gets his laptop broken at an Alablama field..there should be A RABALAIS TERMINATOR UNLEASHED.. imo.

Carl:
If we make it to the second game against UGA, will it be televised?
Thanks!

Thanks, Russian. I will keep the ffer in mind. It was nice meeting you.

It was nice meeting you.
The PC loaner offer is still valid. I'll be leaving the hotel around 11 AM to go to Regions Park.
ETA: Terrific column about the game last night, BTW. The quotes from Gibbs and Tanner were money. Your writing puts the Advocate's writers to shame.

The Birmingham Barons provided me a desktop computer for today's game, so I should have a way to write this game story. I'm taking it one game at a time, to borrow the most tired cliche in sports.
Thanks for the kind words, everyone. See you in a bit.

+1.
Since Carl and Rabalais left there are so many errors. In todays recap of last night's game, they had Crisp striking out to end the game. It was a pinch hitter, not Crisp.
