ANOTHER SEASON, ANOTHER HURRICANE
Last year, the college football season’s start was impacted (along with the lives of so many) by the ravages of Katrina as it made its way towards the Gulf coast. You can’t help but be reminded of this as we excitedly anticipate a new season only to hear word of another storm approaching. Thankfully, Ernesto bears little resemblance (at this point) to the potency of Katrina, but the question still remains what impact it may have on the kickoff of the new college football year. Hopefully, that is the only major concern to arise from Ernesto.Â

Honestly? I’m less concerned about Ernie’s potential effect on college football and more concerned about his effect on the cable-TV infrastructure of southwest and northeast Florida. This thing has the potential to make my job a living hell in coming weeks.

As a former Louisianan, I will say that were it not for the French Quarter and about a 15 block long by 4 block wide stretch along St Charles Ave, New Orleans would rank somewhere below Port-au Prince as a tourist destination..

Goodpeeps:
Let’s just say that I have some issues with the way New Orleans in particular, and Louisiana in general, handled the entire business and leave it at that. I really don’t want to get too negative, and this probably isn’t the place for a philosophical rant…..
