You are right totally right. BUT it is not that time, and it might not be that time until next year. Tell all those people that are gonna live in the Astrodome for the next 5 months that it is time to move on.

You start the next chapter when it is time to start the next chapter. And if all of you look inside your heart and pass the PASSION WE ALL FEEL FOR LSU, you will see that this might be the only way to get things back to working order.

Would you rather have LSU home games or a working, sustaining louisiana?

You are thinking completely backwards. While all of this is horrible, this event is going to drastically improve the business in Baton Rouge overnight. By that I mean that as soon as the initial cleanup begins, and the rescues and recovery dies down, the Baton Rouge area is going to be booming. Many, many of the big businesses in New Orleans will simply move their offices to our area rather than sit and wait for N.O. to be ready to return to.

It is horrible that it had to happen this way, and none of us wanted this, but this is a fact of economy.

Why would they moved to an already OVERCROWDED Baton rouge when they can move to any other state in the south.

but how will playing a football game affect when Louisiana gets rolling? When the first pitch was thrown out in NY, the building was still very much on the ground...

the first game was 7 days after the attack.

You are right it was " A BUILDING" just one building. Not an entire area.

Honestly if you were one of the people now living in the Astrodome or a hotel, with no way to get your season tickets and no way to WATCH or go to the game, how would it make you feel to see the games being played?

lol because more people mean more customers.

you will never get it and you never know when to stfu. ever. about anything.

if we played Monday, the 1st game would have been 7 days after the storm...

By playing next sat, it will be 12 days...

not bad

I quite honestly dont see the games being moved. Too much money involved. Too many people with alot of pull involved.

Dude, it is already happening. The Shaw building filled it's offices in a day. Crescent Bank is setting up shop in BR already. Hundreds of these businesses only do business in LA they can't move to another state. and the overcrowding will subside drastically in the coming weeks.

I would be willing to bet by the end of next week, there will not be anyone left in the PMAC or the River center. It just takes a little time for FEMA and the red cross to set up housing for these people.
