re: Why does Louisiana suck?
Posted by Gerry Laval on 10/6/26 at 3:42 pm to LSBoosie
I’m an LSU grad and I truly believe one of my professors, Dr. Richard White, nailed the answer to this question. Dr. White was military and lived all over the country, but mostly Virginia. He chose to come to LSU because he was intrigued by Huey Long. One time I went to his office and he was in the middle of writing a novel about Huey Long, which I later read and I consider one of the best. It’s simply titled “Kingfish” by Dr. Richard White. Check it out. It’s a great read.
He told me the answer to this question is the people of Louisiana’s DNA. The other 49 states are descended from the old American adage of “fear the King.” A revolution was fought and we became our country because we did not want to be ruled by a King. Louisiana, on the other hand, is descended from French people who “loved their King”.
It’s all leadership. We’ve never had a smart person as our governor. Louisiana folks love their king. Thats why we are 50th.

I sat in the upper deck of that game vs. Missouri using a friend’s ticket. I was around a bunch of Mizzou fans. A Tiger fan was walking up the aisle with jambalaya and a Mizzou fan behind me remarked, “Wow! I didn’t know they had shrimp fried rice here!”

Hypothyroidism? Anemic?
I’ve seen the dude wearing a sweat shirt multiple times in the month of September. Today he’s wearing one in Gainesville, Florida. I’d be sweating my balls off.

Somebody pose as peta, send Jeff Landry a letter, tell him he can’t do it.
It will be done tomorrow, with a headline I might add….

I agree. Did we “bend the knee” by allowing the media to give a half a natty to usc in 2003? No, because under the rules at the time, we won the natty that year. Period. We followed the rules.

I simply googled “who is cookie at lsu” and was given an AI answer about an hour ago rather than starting a thread about it like this one, but I feel your pain of journalism doing a top story and just expecting us to know who some dudes nephew is.

Imagine being the old guys who watch the news in Forrest Gump (LSU Football)
Posted by Gerry Laval on 9/1/26 at 6:51 pm
Except only LSU Football headlines. Based on my view multiple times of the movie (have not yet read the book), I estimate these guys were watching headlines (at the barber?) from roughly 1956 to 1982 (but somehow they never really aged?) . That’s only 26 years, but a lot changed during that time.
Imagine being old men watching only LSU FOOTBALL headlines from 1994 to now….

Probably the worst time of the year to be asking this. If she doesn’t want to come at Mardi Gras, get a room at the Roosevelt during December when it’s decorated for Christmas.
