American labs are simply british labs with greyhound bred into them from way back.

The black british lab is the original duck hunters dog. Act accordingly.

Patrick Duester (3-1, 0.34 ERA) is the mid week pitcher for Tulane.

Merrill, Gibbs, and Yandel are the weekend starters

This thread is giving the Tulane fans on gotula.net and yogwf.com a good chuckle.

Old timer who fought in WWII said to me once it took a while to sink in when they found out Hitler was dead and the war was over. We'd get up every morning, go get our asses kicked all day long by the germans, and then night would fall.

Then, we'd get up the next morning, and the germans were gone, having pulled back , and we'd have to go find them, get our asses kicked again, night would fall and the same thing repeats, all in a seemingly never ending cycle.

they tore our tanks up and they were really good with their rifles.

A LOT of programs are next.

Time to get the legislature on the case

Exactly. But, remember the context that when LSU was chartered , Tulane was still called UofL, thus the nomenclature for LSU that endures today.

LSU guys in the legi would probably not name a competing flagship to LSU. They'll probably be content with the franchise remaining on St. Charles Ave. And furthermore, if there is ever reform over the legislative scholarship program they'll probably right size it to what is a much bigger insttitution now. 149 legislative schollies at Tulane was a big deal in the 1880s but it is not now. The legislature holds the charter to Tulane in the state constitution just like LSU's.

"UL Lafayette attempted to officially become the University of Louisiana in 1984, but this attempt only lasted for a few weeks before being overturned by the state legislature. Officially, only one university has been the University of Louisiana, Tulane University.

In 1847, the state legislature established the University of Louisiana, now Tulane, as a public university. After the Civil War, the University of Louisiana went through a period of financial hardship. Businessman Paul Tulane donated real estate and funding to support the university. He established the Tulane Educational Fund (TEF).

In 1884, the Louisiana State Legislature transferred control of the University of Louisiana to the TEF. This move renamed the school the Tulane University of Louisiana and the university became privatized. Tulane is one of only a few to change from a public state-funded university to a private institution.

This move over 100 years ago has never been altered or changed so ultimately UL Lafayette and ULM should be turning their attention to Tulane, because Tulane is the ‘real’ University of Louisiana."

let the games begin...

The 800 lb. gorilla in the room is the fact that the black community as a collective is the most racist group in the US, by far. The more they fail to be equal in commerce or education, the more racist they have become, even more reliant upon liberal "progressiveness" in the white community to make gains by any means. And, in athletics we have a different story, driven beyond reality by the media.

Whites are passed over these days for opportunities in football and basketball because of a sense that blacks are superior athletes. This has blown up to the extent that it has swung popular opinion and thus respresentation in those sports, beyond the realities of actual talent. Yet, there is no media clamoring for opportunities for whites.

Baseball experienced a generation when blacks were drafted beyond where the collective's actual talent should have been represented. Reality finally caught up to baseball this generation and the opportunity trend has normalized. And the media of course cries foul, and demands that the MLB blow money on urban academies etc.

Meanwhile, BYU and Stanford will continue to defy mental gravity in the media.
