As President of the Les Miles Fan Club I took a big hit on Saturday Night but is Les really on the Hot Seat?

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/295130-is-les-miles-on-the-hot-seat-does-one-second-define-tenure-at-lsu

I'd appreciate your feedback and I hope you like it, if you find me worthy!

Thanks in advance. - HB

I am surprised by the number of people who actually want to reserve the right to bad-mouth their teams! I offer constructive criticism, of course, but one in particular wants to be able to say, "they suck," if they do.

I don't get it. Will YOU take the pledge?

I realized the BCS is better than a play-off, and decided it needed to be defended. I'd love your input.

I'd appreciate it if you had the chance.

Hi John,

Thank you for the read and note. If I weren't a Duck, and in your situation, I too might root the Beav's.

Wishing you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving.

Long live PAC-10 football!

Hi John,

Hey, Saturday is hard to take. No way should the Huskies have lost that one. I feel bad for you. That celebration ruling just plain sucks.

Just published a story about Oregon traveling to meet Purdue this coming Saturday. You may find it of interest.

It can be read at: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/54994-looking-ahead-to-oregon-at-purdue

Take a look when you get a chance. Appreciate any comments you may have.

Thank you,

--Larry
