All you really need to do is listen to president Obama speak to the American people for just a little while. To readily realize that our countrymen are in a world of trouble. How our society still works as well as it does is very remarkable to me these days.
President Obama is not the only one who doesn't have what it takes. But the rest of the people running the American government is sorely lacking in substance and character also, We are up the creek without a paddle folks. The only thing that we can now do as a community is to take care of ourselves as best we can. Too many people without a true sense of value is not a very good environment for much of anything to look forward to. That of course is worth while having. Wow, there they are, the magna cum laude products of the American education system. The devalued infection of our society is spreading everywhere.
There is nothing more to look at, do the best job that you can, if you are capable of it?
Tinker: 3/2/2013
People seem to think that they are worth the amount of money that is in their pockets, and bank account. If the price of what a dollar buys in today consumer market becomes in reality inflated more then what a dollars is worth. Then the dollar that is in their pockets is devalued in purchasing power, losing value.
So people should be very conscience of what the true value of money, people, property, consumer goods, and things really are worth in reality. Don't you think?
But heaven forbid true value has become a total mystery to a lot of people who don't have a clue. After all of that background into a sense of true value. I'm going back to what I wanted to say to begin with. Do you want to play by the rules, or don't you. What's in your wallet?
------------------------------
When it is our turn to die will we do as good as the people who went before us. When the touch of Gabriel taps us on your shoulder. Can we really be as brave.
The value of money doesn't come from heaven, or aliens, or from another planet. The value of what we own, and who we are, is the direct results from what we get in the product coming from our work. The spirit of our personality is what will abide us at the time we live it. Each in their own moments.
The true value of each other is in fact, priceless. When I run out of of my own ablity to understand our further interlinking into our present circumstances. I Simply do what my parents did before me. I start praying. Father help us to work out of our mistakes, and problems. That we are indeed guilty of our sins. Please forgive us anyway. Even though that we really did know very well, what we were doing.

I can almost feel the exciting fighting spirit going through Jerry Hill as he runs into the clear, with only one more defender trying to stop him. The angle is becomes the deliberate direction of what he play football for. Feeling the ability from so much training that is building in speed and power moving towards that one last defender. And he's the running back. What do you think is going to happen. Hill is going to virtually rattle his cage, and run threw him heading for the goal line. That the big moment is coming together in a flash, dressed in LSU purple and gold.

Which conference has best playoff path?
February, 28, 2013
After a few minutes of chatting, each said something similar: They wanted to know what the other ADs were saying and thinking.
The administrators are undoubtedly a curious and cautious bunch entering this new era in the sport. They're mostly keeping open minds.
"I think most of us are taking a wait-and-see approach," one of the ADs said.
Another: "Everyone has a different school of thought. But we don't know what we don't know right now."
Chiefly, what they do not know now, and will not really know until a year or two into the playoff, is what the selection committee will value and how they should accordingly schedule. It's one thing to hear these things discussed in the abstract, with talk of emphasizing conference championships and other factors, but it'll be another to actually see the selections taking place.
(For example, if there'd been a playoff in 2012, which teams would have earned the third and fourth slots? Florida, at 11-1 coming out of the SEC, would seem like a safe bet, but what about the final spot? Oregon, the No. 4 team in the BCS standings? Stanford, the BCS No. 6 team and Pac-12 champion that dealt the Ducks their only loss? Kansas State, the one-loss Big 12 champ?)
But one thing we can say with relative certainty is that the available paths each contender has to a playoff berth will play a key role in which teams are in the postseason mix and which get selected -- and that these title paths have the potential to vary greatly depending on the conference and nonconference schedules of each contender.
(How do each of the five major leagues stack up in this regard? We'll get to that in a bit.)

Dandy Don's LSU Sports Report
It’s hard to believe that it’s already March and that LSU football spring practice will begin in just two weeks. I haven't yet received the practice schedule to know what times the media will be allowed to view individual drills, but I sure hope to be able to make it out to a few practices and report on what I see. A few things I look forward to seeing include:
• Coach Cam Cameron - how will he interact with the team and staff? What’s his coaching style?
• The Early Enrollees - John Diarse, Fehoko Fanaika, Anthony Jennings, Avery Peterson, Christian LaCouture, Ethan Pocic, Hayden Rettig and Logan Stokes - what kind of shape will they report in, and how coachable will each be?
• The two incoming freshmen quarterbacks - how will they throw the ball, and what will be their order in the individual drills?
• RB Alfred Blue - will he be at 100%, or will he be wearing the green protective jersey?
• WR Travin Dural - same. Will he be at full speed from the get-go, or will the staff take things slowly with him? (I'll go out on a limb here and predict that Dural will have a breakout season.)
• Who will run with the No. 1s in the offensive line at left tackle?
• Who will replace Kevin Minter at middle linebacker?
• Who will emerge as team leaders?
------------
I'll close with quick tid-bit related to football recruiting. A player to keep an eye on this summer and next season is 2014 OL Bailey Granier of South Lafourche High School. Granier (currently ranked No. 24 on our list of Top LA Prospects) has tremendous size at 6'8", 317 and moves well for a young man his size. You can check out his highlight video here. Although Bailey does not yet have an offer from LSU, I've learned that he is a huge Tiger fan and would commit in a heartbeat if offered. Alabama extended an offer to Bailey in their recent Junior Day.

1974 Orange Bowl - LSU vs. Penn State (Legend of Mike Miley) (Posted on 3/2/13 at 12:55 p.m.)
 The 1974 Orange Bowl ended a promising season for LSU. The Tigers started out 9-0 led by a loaded defense and QB Mike Miley before falling to Alabama, Tulane, and Penn State. Notables for this game were Penn State’s John Cappelletti, who came into the game as the ’73 Heisman trophy winner and LSU’s Mike Miley. Miley was a super-talent and by today’s standard was a freak. A prolific talent out of Metairie’s East Jefferson High School, Miley was drafted by Cincinnati but choose instead to play for LSU. Just to give you an idea of the talent this kid possessed, Miley was a switch-hitting shortstop drafted in the first round, yet was a highly recruited quarterback that had college coaches like Bear Bryant drooling. Though LSU would lose this game, the Tigers lead in total offense 275 – 185 and first downs 18-9. As usual, LSU was loaded on defense with the likes of Warren Capone, Bo Harris, Gary Champagne, Steve Cassidy, Kenny Bordelon, Thielen Smith, and notable pros A. J. Duhe and Mike Williams (first black player). LSU would limit Heisman winner Cappelleti to 50 yards, in spite of losing Champagne and Harris early in the game to injuries. LSU had switched to the Veer-offense this same year to counter the success of the wishbone, and to take advantage of Miley’s running. But in big games, LSU would be plagued by mistakes and fumbles. To complicate matters, McClendon had an automatic substitution system, instead of substituting on a need-basis. This may have worked on lesser teams but when faced with better teams, it failed. LSU and Miley could never gain the offensive consistency they needed to go along with its great defense. No more evident of this failed strategy was the Alabama game when McClendon replaced Miley early (as usual) in the game with its second-string QB Broussard, whose first play-pitch was fumbled deep inside LSU territory. Alabama then would score its first touchdown forcing LSU to play catch-up the rest of the game. That game was a night game in Tiger Stadium and was nationally televised. Both teams were 9-0. On a national stage, LSU was facing arguably the best team in the country with its own phenom in Miley. Then for no reason Miley is taken out the game, go figure that one. Miley was more suited to today’s spread offense as he had a great arm and quick feet. With the Veer, LSU typically ran two plays before throwing on 3rd down. This defeated all that Miley had to offer. Miley was more suited to throw when unexpected with the option to run. And that’s exactly what he did at EJ, making him a highlight reel. Miley, a junior spurned his senior year and the Tigers signing and playing shortstop with the California Angles. Miley’s frustration with the LSU offense and McClendon’s substitution policy lead squarely to him leaving the team (my opinion). His tragic death in ’77 ended a promising career in the Major Leagues. Airline Playground in Metairie today is name after Mike Miley. LINK I believe in two things: discipline and the Bible. Here you'll receive both. Put your trust in the Lord; your arse belongs to me.

That was the year the Tigers lost to Tulane for the first time in 25 years. That year was the beginning of the end for Charlie Mac

I'm sorry but the only real difference i'm seeing is that Hill is 15lbs heavier and more durable. Some of you "Blue shouldn't run inside guys" and "no real competition" should look at some of the hits he is delivering. He has ran over a few guys and stiff armed the fight outta one guy at the end of the Washington clip.
If Blue comes back 100% then these guys are more interchangeable than you think.

LSU Football: Bold Predictions for Tigers' 2013 Recruiting Class
By (Featured Columnist) on February 27, 2013
Credit: 247Sports.com
One of the 2013 recruiting classes that doesn't get enough
respect belongs to the LSU Tigers. Maybe it was the surprising group of
guys that Ole Miss was able to put together, or the continued dominance
of Alabama, but Les Miles and his staff did an impressive job in their own right.
The class includes a plethora of defensive talent that will help contribute in the first year, and playmakers on the offensive side that could actually produce a passing game in Baton Rouge.
Who would have ever thought that would actually happen?
Along with predicting an air attack for LSU that produces more than 200 yards a game, I see two players in this class that could be even better than defensive legends that recently suited up for this program. There is a lot to like with this 2013 class, which means it is time to throw all of the predictions out on the table before they begin their collegiate careers.
Here are the bold predictions for the 2013 LSU Tigers recruiting class.
