Junior college football, Copiah-Lincoln at Hinds (6:30 p.m., Raymond): The Eagles' sad season finally ends.

Friday, Oct. 23
High school football, Lanier at Provine (7 p.m., Hughes Field, Jackson): The South Jackson rivals will rumble in the shadow of Westland Plaza.

Saturday, Oct. 24
College football, Arkansas at Ole Miss (11:30 a.m., Oxford, Ch. 12, 97.3 FM): Houston Nutt's former team faces his new one. … Jackson State at Mississippi Valley State (1 p.m., Itta Bena, 95.5 FM): The Tigers are awful. The Delta Devils are godawful. Watch this at your own risk. … Florida at Mississippi State (6:30 p.m., Starkville, ESPN, 105.9 FM): Dan Mullen's former team, the top-ranked Gators, faces his new one, the Bulldogs.

Sunday, Oct. 25
NFL football, New Orleans at Miami (3:15 p.m., Ch. 40, 620 AM): The unbeaten Saints face the dangerous Dolphins. Watch out for the Wildcat, fellas.

Monday, Oct. 26

Tuesday, Oct. 27
NBA basketball, Boston at Cleveland (6:30 p.m., TNT): The Celtics tip off the season against King James and his court, which now includes Shaq. Can you dig it?

Wednesday, Oct. 28

Dr. S., Surely it was a mistake that you omitted another faceoff on Saturday Oct 24: USM vs. Tulane, at USM, Homecoming. Important conference game to both teams.

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
Izzy: it's not enough to just study something - at some point you have to act. Systematic exclusion can be read as hatred, even when those involved in it do not feel it to be that. This is ...

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
J.T.: Wintrhop, your last sentence "I don't want a small and manageable God. I prefer one that I can't fully understand." bears out that we each have perceptions of God. And, when the ...

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
Wintrhop Sargent: Funny you should mention the gender issue of a deity. I was at lunch with a St. Andrews priest one time and a very conservative member of the Cathedral came to our table ...

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
Izzy: I wouldn't be too sure your church doesn't preach hate if your liturgy is not gender-inclusive. Think about it - is God really a "He" or a "Father"? Those are some images or visions of ...

Barbour Wants to Merge State's Black Universities
baquan2000: Goldenae - you pointed out a key element in your post, "the point is that he would even suggest such a thing. And the sad part is that from the polls, the people ...

[Editor's Note] Love Thy Neighbor
Wintrhop Sargent: WMartin - At the church I attend, St. Andrew's Cathedral, there is no teaching or preaching about hate (unless you include the teaching and preaching AGAINST hate). I'm ...

[Doyle] From Dixie, With Love
ladd: A fail-safe principle I've always sworn by: If the Kluckers agree with me about something, I need to rethink it.

[Doyle] From Dixie, With Love
Goldenae: I would truly be ashamed of myself if I looked at life and others the way the some people do. Some folks can not put themselves in another person's shoes to save their lives. It is ...

Barbour Wants to Merge State's Black Universities
