Dont buy a town talk for the sports today. Not a single word about the 6:30 LSU game. NO COVERAGE AT ALL! Not even the score . Not even head negatiger Guilbleaux. There was an article about Casanova (wasnt that two weeks ago he was honored)Thier was a picture of him that took up half the sports page.I mean I admire Tommy but not even the score of the Auburn game?. WTF!

well college football live showed two plays and that was it. No talk about lsu at all. Can't believe i stayed up for that. ALl bama, florida etc.

People are trying to dismiss this win as a fluke. But opposing coaches know different.

I wonder how many coaches would want to play lsu next week

Everyday. Everyday there is an Alexandria sucks thread. I thought this was a site to talk about LSU fb; not how good your city is compared to poor shitty Alexandria.

being that im from pineville i can attest to the fact that the town talk is the crappiest, most poorly ran and written paper i've ever come across.

the Pineville High Yahoo had better writing then the ATT

Worst newpaper in the history of newpapers. They have gone way down. Years ago they had a large sports section, now the Bunkie Record has more sports coverage then these yo yos.

And yes people still live in Bunkie and no it is not a shitty town.

The ATT has always been pretty bad. IDK why my parents still get that paper but I suppose you old people enjoy sitting down with your morning coffee and reading the paper even though its all online.

I have a lot of ATT clippings from the sports section when I was in high school and they are embarrassingly written...even when they did a section with me being community's outstanding teen it was poorly written.

I miss the days of Tompkins covering the Tigers, now its basically Guilbleaux coverage, and its that way in alot of the smaller papers. They are just now getting some coverage of fridays HS games, in todays paper. Im not downing Alex.,but I am paying for a paper that cant even include the score.

All I remember about Bunkie is that it had the easiest women in Louisiana. "No" wasn't in their vocabulary. So you'll never hear the hate from me.

i am sure it was just an early edition. the Town Talk is one of the greatest daily newspapers still in print.
