Yes, our state's education system needs to improves, as well as ethics of our politicians, business climate, etc. Why can't we at least be proud of those guys who accomplished so much. Many of them are not like Mike "Dog Fighting" Vick. LA has contributed many good character guys currently in the NFL, such as Devery Henderson, Jake Delhomme, Brandon Stokley and Charles Tillman. - Cajunrunner Fri, 25 Sep 2009 15:08:35 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4978#comment-3227 Someone obviously never made it in sports. Oh btw, "Give Me A Break" they make more money than you so shut your hole...Withot sports, A LOT of kids would not continue their education. Spend some time in the school system and evaluate my words and observations at a later date. Sports Programs and all Atheletes are NOT the Evil of this world sir. - Shock Caller Thu, 24 Sep 2009 18:26:30 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4978#comment-3216 Wow, this is fantastic. this is certainly a list to aspire to. we need more football players. it has always been a major disappointment to me that Vick wasn't a louisiana native. Finally, something our children can aspire to: professional sports. - give me a break Thu, 24 Sep 2009 15:14:01 +0100 http://www.theind.com/home/4978#comment-3197 I'm glad you have brought this data to the table. I've been preaching that the best football happens in our own backyard. Between LSU and the rest of the Universities, we got a whole lotta players in the Big League. - Shock Caller Thu, 24 Sep 2009 11:08:15 +0100
