Needs to be LSU-Notre Dame 1971 2.0 - That's what LSU football is all about...Big game big name opponent late kick...that's what make us different as Lane like to say!

I'll get the TV viewership numbers next month when the data is made public. Corporate sponsors and TV advertisers should be beholden to the stockholders for spending money on BS! Take Hermann Memorial running 2 National ads during the LSU/Houston ...yea that's really good for the moral of nurses and employed physicians ..kinda of like OLOL spending millions to get naming rights to Cajun Field in Lafayette...

Make sure you buy the Family Reserve Tabasco its the shitts ! Cafe on Jefferson Island is legit! Get crab meat augrtin

I got to meet Coach McClendon in 1979 at New Iberia Senior High School. It was the day before National Signing Day and our star running back was the #1 recruit in La ...Johnny Hector! I had 5-6 period Coaches aid to our Head Coach and there were some big-name coaches in our gym camping out to visit one more time with Johnny before the big day....Tom Wilson head Coach at A&M along with R.C Slocum who was recruiting Johnny...Fred Ackers head Coach at Texas along with Recruiting coordinator Coach Williams ...Lucious Selmon from OU was also present which he had been for the better part of 6 months watching practices and games then flying out to Coach OU DL on Saturday's ...Charlie Peavy was there he was the OC at LSU ...Coach Peavy came into the Coaches office asking if there was a phone he could use for private call...I lead him to the HC office where he called Coach McClendon and told him to get to NI in a hurry that they didn't have Johnny Hector signed sealed and delivered the day before signing day (Johnny had signed a state letter of intent back in Nov. of '78). Coach Mac was at the gym in 1 hr....came in a State Troopers car...I'll never forget that Coach Williams asked to use a phone also, I led him to same phone in our HC office he made a call to Mrs. Browner (Ross and Joey's mother ) informing her that they would be in Atlanta by 6 for another visit at her home with Joey (he went to ND). Well Johnny signed with the Aggies 2 days after national signing day and after a prominent LSU backer made threatening phone calls to Hectors home (FBI traced the calls to a Dentist in Lafayette). Well, I got to meet Coach Cholly Mac and that was so cool for me as my family had and has had same LSU tickets since 1954! Man, today's recruiting is so F upped compared to the way it was in the 70-early 80's.

In La we came within 36hrs from getting a lot of HEB's! In 2014 Mr. Brookshire died and the heirs to the 200 stores...which included Super 1 foods in La...wanted to cash out! There was one heir who was active in the grocery business and didn't want to sell but he was having trouble getting financial backing to buy out the other heirs. They retained an investment banker to move the business...Albertson's and HEB made strong bids with the heirs voting on the HEB buyout terms...well 36 hrs before the closing the one heir Brad Brookshire secured financing that allowed him to buy out the other heirs . The other heirs got a comparable deal to HEB and the family grocery business survived. Hence La come very close to having a lot of HEB's. Now if only Donny Rouse would sell his La stores to HEB so he can go Marlin fishing full-time !

The only better grocery store than HEB is Wegman's....every Wegmans is a Central Grocery! Having lived in McAllen, Tx and knew big Grapefruit and Orange growers they ranked Wegmans # 1 and HEB # 2 and the rest of the grocery stores in US were not in their league!

Go to the Cantina at Santa Fe Steakhouse in McAllen....best looking hot ladies from Reynosa dressed like they looking for a date.....if u know what I mean!

For the PGA Tour it's a money thing! Corporate America is spending their money elsewhere!

42 million and let's move on! Bigger fish to fry!

I'm sure if it was a blatant sandbagging job that clubs Member-guest committee would have done something about it! My guess is that his handicap is legit and he played well! If there was any significant money involved then I'm sure protest would have been very loud by other teams! Come down to McAllen Country Club where the Calcutta averages 125-150 thousand and see what we do to sandbaggers...
