re: Post Your All-19th-Century LSU Football Team

Indeed. I actually watched that YouTube clip and had it in mind before I created this thread!

" Dead Poets' Society - Carpe Diem!"

I also thought of the famous race to beat the 12 chimes of the clock at Cambridge (at the beginning of classes in the year 1920, I believe) in the movie Chariots of Fire ( LINK), which had huge memorial monuments to WWI in the background of the plot; George C. Scott reading aloud from the "Book of Remembrance" to begin the movie Taps; and of course, always dear to me, the poem " To an Athlete Dying Young", written by A.E. Housman in 1896. I thought about that one a lot when I was reading all the venom thrown out against Russell Shepard about a month ago.
