A poem captures the moment when Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots, is defeated, captured, and awaiting execution by the English. The poet imagines her thus,

"My lords! my lords!" the captive said, " Were I but once more free,
With ten good knights on yonder shore to aid my cause and me"

We've all had these moments in our lives when we reflect on our failures and think, "If only I had one more chance", a chance at the ball I dropped in high school, a chance to save my marriage, a chance to avert some disaster. Well, Les Miles has that chance. He still stands "on yonder shore". And until the axe falls, as it did on the Stuart queen, I'll be rooting for Les to pull off the improbable and thumb his nose at his critics.

But Les would never do that last part - he's too much of a gentleman. Just so you know.
