The only thing being split is the money. Goes to show you how much of the bill St. George has been carrying with all of these press conferences happening.

Does anybody know what percentage of the vote does St. George need to be approved? (51%?)

I love Skip Bertman... as a baseball man.

St George is the ONLY way to stop the exodus to Livingston and Ascension parish. Long after Skip and Roger are gone, EBRP will either be saved by South Baton Rouge or it will be devoid of any tax base.

With all due respect, Coach. Stick to what you know.

50.1% would do it but you know the city of BR and half the Metro Council will attempt to subvert this even if it wins 99-1.

It's more important that we stay together as one," Bertman said. "That's the winner for us: unity." Cador echoed Bertman's thoughts, adding: "This is about Baton Rouge and the mayor doing a good job. When you stay together good things happen."


St.G is seceding from EBR?

God, I wish!

Amazing what Richard Lipsey can buy with a bronze statue.

Depending on how SWB and the Metro Council play this, maybe St George, Central, and Zachary should look into breaking off from EBR to form a new parish.

I see the anti-St George desperation spinning out of control lately. Its almost to the point of them begging and crying. Like a little kid who did something wrong and his mom tells him, "Just wait until your Dad gets home". The fear hits and the screaming starts, "Noooooooo, Mom! Pleeeease don't tell Dad. I'll be good, I'll be good!"

You make your bed, you sleep in it.

I didn’t know Roger Cador was a baseball coach. I thought he was some dude who ran a few Piggly Wigglys.

This is a little closer to a kid acting out and thinking they are in control until about two inches before hand or belt meets butt.

At that point, negotiation suddenly becomes a possibility after it is far too late to work.

So I assume they also would like to merge LSU and Southern?

But they wouldn’t want to take evil racist money, would they!?

Broome needs to focus on trash collection. That has gone to shite under her watch. Hope St. George happens and hate that Skip and Roger participated in this crap. At least channel 9 said neither live in St. George area.

frick Broome.
