    How about this, Gerald:

    Make me a studio guest on your show and I'll do you the favor of filling you in on all that is LSU Sports while sending your ratings to a respectable level in the process. Invite me into the studio and you can get your career and dignity back - I'm that damn special. I like my coffee black. What day do you want to ressurect your career?

    Rome is a schmoozer. He makes no secret of the fact that he wants to eventually get out of sports and become a straight news journalist.

    Geez... go easy on Gerry V..

    Now:

    Brady: has recruiting skills, but lacks the 'people's coach' persona that Dale Brown had... The team often looks disinterested..

    Smoke: I always thought he was a decent coach, but he too looks like he lacks the fire to motivate a team.

    Just my opinion though

    His radio show is on par with Blake Andrews. Blake's show is just pathetic and Gerry's show is like having old flashbacks of middle school when that one kid would talk back to teacher because he thought it made him "cool". The whole city of New Orleans laughs at this clown. The guy was owned by Tim Floyd. What does that tell you?

    He's like that little dog at your aunt's house that growls at you and won't stop barking. As soon as you confront the little chit, he pisses all over the carpet, or in Gerry's case...... on his middle school (not highschool,BB) radio show.

    This criticism of Smoke always cracks me up. Here's your assignment:

    Watch the CWS. Pay attention to the TV shots of coaches in the dugout. What do you see? Hand clapping? Back slapping? No. What you see is intense concentration as they study scouting reports and tendencies. You may see them with their heads down and eyes closed while they try to stay a few steps ahead of the action, e.g., who to warm up in the pen, who to pinch hit or pinch run later in the game, etc. Some are busy relaying signals to the catcher and field coaches. The motivating aspects are behind closed doors where we fans never venture.

    Basically, if you are winning, you are fired up. If you are losing, you are not.
