HURRICANE WARNING: The National Weather Service has issued a Hurricane Warning exclusively for central Florida. A very rare west-to-east tropical system is expected to develop from an area of disturbance into a category 6 "Damn Strong" hurricane, to be named Mike.

This week I received these images of one of the coolest tailgate trailers. This would make any LSU fan proud.

I wondered where Ryan Perrilloux would end up after he blew it as LSU's quarterback. Well, here's the answer. He will be the quarterback at Jackson State. I truly hope he can pull it all together. Another intresting article.

I received these images of Tiger Stadium a while back. I especially love the image with seven helicopters.

Quarterback Ryan Perrillous is no longer a member of the LSU football team. I hate to see such a great athlete go down in flames like this. He was only a year or two away from a million dollar payday in the NFL. So sad. I'm predicting some desperate school picks him up. View the article.

This morning I got an alert that Ryan Perrilloux was taken off of suspension. He still isn't allowed back on the playing field yet. Coach Miles says that Perrilloux has gotten his act together. I hope this is true. Ryan Perrilloux will have tremendous opportunities in the future, if he can play by the rules. Here's the link to the AP story.

Les Miles got a new contract and a raise. He now makes $1000 more than LSU's former coach, Nick Saban. According to the stories, he is now the highest paid coach in the SEC and the third highest paid in the country.

I saw that LSU suspended Ryan Perrilloux indefinately. Perrilloux is only two years away from a multi-million dollar payoff. What is he thinking?

Congratulations to LSU and the state of Louisiana! And they only had to play 8 ranked teams to get here. I was extremely nervous about our chances after LSU gave up a 65 yard run to Ohio State on the 3rd play of the game. And especially after LSU had a bad snap and Flynn had to fall on the ball on 3rd down. Things started to look up once they were able to stop Ohio State from getting a touchdown on their second drive. Ten to zero was an ugly way to start. We wondered if Les Miles was going to fire Bo Pelini during the 2nd quarter as he had joked during one of his press conferences. Before the game I watched the ESPN pre-game show and three of the four commentators picked Ohio State to win. Only one person picked LSU to win and that was because he felt guilty or something. After the game it was a different story. They questioned why Ohio State was EVEN in the game to begin with. Four hours ago they picked Ohio State to win and now they wondered why USC was even there playing LSU. For the record, USC was ranked #3 in the final polls, BEHIND Georgia. USC received only 1 first place vote in the AP Poll. Still many sportswriters keep trying to pin an asterisk to LSU's National Championship. But they have two loses. But other teams are "playing as well as anybody" or "hot". But they didn't play Georgia. But they had home field advantage and don't even know what snow is. But we need a playoff system. But, But, But. I actually agree we need a playoff system. BUT the BCS is better than what they had before. The BCS is great at highlighting which teams have cream puff schedules. You can be (12 and 0) and not belong in a BCS Bowl Game (see Georgia vs Hawaii). I was so proud of the way LSU played last night. They kept their composure during the first quarter when things went terribly wrong. They didn't commit a penalty until the 3rd quarter, which is HIGHLY uncharacteristic of any LSU team throughout history. Each player at EACH position played their heart out. I can't wait to visit Baton Rouge this weekend and buy some National Championship gear. If this is anything like 2003, it will look like Mardi Gras exploded inside of the Mall. Congratulations again LSU. You deserve to be NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!!!!

Tonight's the big game. I'm very nervous about LSU's chances against Ohio State. Most people believe it will be close, and that LSU will win by a few points. According to the sportswriters, Ohio State has something to prove after being embarassed by Florida during last year's Championship game. LSU has something to prove too. They need to prove that they deserve to be in the title game. This season is different then 2003. Back then, USC was ranked number one in both of the polls but wasn't invited to the BCS Championship game. This season, they were not ranked #1, so it seems EXTREMELY unlikely there will be a "split championship". USC can try to claim a piece, but I don't think they will get it. I'm hoping Dorsey and Flynn are both at full strength after having all of that time off. My prediction is 28 to 24: LSU! Here's to a GREAT game! Geaux Tigers!
