    Just a quick little story... My Uncle Monty (Italian folks) died of cancer last weekend. Last Monday we had his funeral. In the middle of the funeral my cousin's cell phone goes off. His ringtone is the LSU pregame.. Daaa dada daaaa dum... Some people, friends of the family, turned and look and thought it was just the rudest thing.. But we family members knew the deal.. we turned and looked and smiled, and I have expected Uncle Monty's hand to shoot up in a cheer... Needless to say, he was a huge LSU fan... I'm just glad the ringtone wasnt RockyTop.. their might have been violence.. heh...

    As for me, as much as I love LSU football, I love the game of football itself more... My sister and I were having the typical, post funeral, "How I want to be buried" discussion... I told her, "Stick me in a box, put a football in my hand, toast me, and spread me on a football field somewhere.. anywhere.. and me and the boys can have a game..."
