Short broadcast today since the mailman keeps forgetting to collect the mail around here. Know what that means? The bills aren't getting delivered. Oh, who am I kidding? I am only saying this in the off chance someone at the bank listens to my ... read on »

This week, John Yargo writes in the JFP about The Ole Miss Rebels and their Irregular Season. You can follow him at The Irregular Season Blog. As you can see, this "prolific writer" has all of two (2) followers.
Irrelevant Blogger,
The misconceptions presented in this article are frankly astounding. You cunningly pass off half-truths and half-baked notions which are not only refutable by statistics and recent results, but also by common sense. Though I'm sure from the friendly confines of ... read on »
Seven weeks into the season and the New Orleans Saints remain undefeated at 6-0, having pulled themselves out of the cellar on Sunday in a challenging contest against Miami. The Dolphins spent the first half of the game throwing all sorts of defensive schemes at Saints quarterback Drew Brees and the Saint's O-line, racking up sacks, fumbles and interceptions from Brees. Facing a three touchdown deficit going into the half, Brees talked head coach Sean Peyton into calling a fourth-and-goal ... read on »
It seems that every since the AHIP (American Health Insurance Providers) went rogue with their "report" on the costs of healthcare reform and their push to get GOP lawmakers to oppose any form of health insurance, the notion of revoking their anti-trust exemption (passed in the McCarran-Ferguson Act of 1945) has been gaining steam. H.R. 3596, the Health Insurance Industry Antitrust Enforcement Act of 2009 has passed the Judiciary Committee of the House, acting narrowly to remove anti-trust ... read on »
Jackson Breland filed this video report from the last weekend of the Mississippi State Fair. Enjoy:
Things are starting to get interesting in the healthcare legislation. From ABC's the Note, Jonathan Karl is reporting that word is now that Harry Reid may well include the "public option" in the bill that he presents to the floor of the Senate, suggesting that the whip count might allow him to get 60 votes to end a GOP filibuster of the bill even if he only ends up with 51 votes, ultimately, to pass the bill. Procedurally, this would cover everyone's butts in the process:
And Democratic ... read on »

FJ: Good morning and good grief, this is Fearless Jackson and you are listening to your favorite morning show in the entire neighborhood. News this morning. None. Nothing happened. You thought wrong. You read the paper this morning and thought what you were reading was news. That is the Coffee News. Close, but not news. I already found the mug, by the way.
In a startling revelation, Walter, the radio station's ... read on »

The New Orleans Saints (5-0) scored on their first drive and never looked back in an offensive effort that gained over 500 yards, with seven different Saints making it into the end zone.
The game represented New York Giant Eli Manning's first visit to the New Orleans Superdome as a professional football player. Not only do the Saints remain undefeated, but they knocked off the previously undefeated New York Giants (5-1) with a healthy 48-27 drubbing.
Tight End Jeremy Shockey, formerly of ... read on »

Huckleberry: “a school that the Klu Klux Klan holds at bay” - Queen, for the reasons I wrote yesterday, I don’t think that statement accurately depicts the “chant” situation or the Ole Miss of today.
Regarding the kluckers showing up on campus, of course it’s embarrassing and will reflect poorly on the school and our state. The fact that they have planned to be there doesn’t change my perception of the school. The school has no control over it. The reaction of the alumni and students to their presence could change my perception, however. My hope is that the kluckers will be ignored and/or roundly booed. I will probably do the former, as that is the opposite reaction to what the cluckers want. While I respect their freedom of speech, I wish the press would express its freedom to ignore them, but I realize that is probably a pipe dream.
The kluckers' presence will add to what is already always a circus, that being the Ole Miss/LSU game. If you want to see another group whose presence tomorrow promises to be embarassing and equally worthy of protest, these fools were at the game 2 years ago: http://www.tigerpimpnation.com/ I suppose every school has its problems.
