robbman21 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 My alma-mater-The University of Louisiana @ Monroe-is going ahead with their home game tonight VS Northwestern State,which is in Natchidoches(pronounced "Nackadish") about 2 hours from here. ULM rarely makes ESPN except for when they are getting blown-out by the likes of Auburn or Florida,but they have a crew here and everything and are doing reports on this right now.I never thought we would play the host to the State's first major event since the dissaster.

Seadragon76 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I can see why it's such a big thing for the state. They need something to keep their minds off of the nightmare that surrounds them. Seeing UL-Monroe play against Northwestern State (LA) could help start the healing process.Yes, I know that it might sound trite to play a football game, but it's needed to help the healing. Remember 9/11? If it wasn't for baseball coming back, this country could of been just like those stereotypical moody people who slit their wrists and complain about life.

sacker12 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I'm just glad that Troy is actually going to be able to play both Lafayette and Monroe this season. I can tell that Lafayette didn't get hit that bad since the Sun Belt conference is going to move the headquarters temporarily to Lafayette's campus.
