I have an easy solution for this - rename the team to "Baton Rouge Traffic" - you can keep that stupid arse bridge as the background on the logo but change the colors to yellow and red to resemble the Google Maps traffic flow colors. It something silly that the entire region can get behind and laugh a bit. I would 100% do it if I owned that team.

Lord if that's for real there are a bunch of people that are going to be gagging from that name. My ex absolutely despised that word. :lol:

The state of college sports has become such a sad affair.

Got a good report yesterday at the oncologist - no more PET scans and no more bone scans! Just bloodwork monitoring every 6 months from now on! I'm so happy!

I'm so glad the company I work for has great insurance for near dirt cheap. $40/week for me with a lower than normal deductible, it's one of the main reasons why I haven't changed jobs in a decade.

He had a no-hitter into the 7th when I went to Kaufman in 17, caught a foul ball off McCann's bat that night.

I'm off to the oncologist to hear about all of my latest rounds of scans. I'm really hoping this was the end of it all and I just get released to bloodwork monitoring. Laying in the tubes is a medical bill I'd like to be done with.

They tried permanent daylight savings in the 70s and it was wildly unpopular because people realized that their kids would waiting for busses in the dark for most of the year. I have a feeling this will only last a year or two until cities up against the western edges of the time zones like Atlanta, Cleveland/Columbus, Louisville, Amarillo, Lubbock, Salt Lake, and all along the west coast will start screaming about that again.
