Merchant mariners are the "auxiliary" navy and, in he event of major troop and equipment movements......well, I'm preaching to the choir and you certainly don't need any instruction on the importance of the issue. Most people do though. They never think about our merchant mariners...<br /><br />LSU? I try hard to be objective when discussing LSU (or the Aggies,Alabama, PAC12, Ohio State, Nebraska and Notre Dame). While I certainly like the Tigers much more than the other mentioned teams, I moved to Louisiana in late middle grades from Arkansas. Stayed a Hogs fan and warmed up to the Ragin Cajuns. <br /><br />Tiger problems this year are obvious. I am surprised they only have one loss at this point. They do have a very good defense I think the Tide will score more often than the Tigers. <br /><br />The game has to be played though. A Tiger victory would be nice and set the stage for even more BCS controversy. That is frustrating but fun none the less.<br /><br />Bartender Cabbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623813045706584212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6661288566810922442.post-324353518218051632012-11-01T09:39:38.575-05:002012-11-01T09:39:38.575-05:00Point #7 is particularly interesting.

Too many people overlook that one, but it is a significant issue.<br /><br />For once, since you didn't mention LSU, I have no issue that I can nitpick.Jayhawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00756807802218022043noreply@blogger.com
