Dale 's Bio

Born October 13th, 1965 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Father of 2 Children, Megan and Alec Weaver
B.A. Liberal Studies, The Masters College, Santa Clarita, CA.
Resides Currently in Los Angeles, CA. since 1987
USMC 1987-1991
Current Occupation: Teacher
Goals: Complete CA. Credential, M.Ed, Ed.D

I grew up in Baton Rouge not too far from LSU on Highland Rd. LSU Football has been a big part of my life since I can remember. I think half my wardrobe by the time I was 10 was sporting an LSU logo. I had a grandfather who was a professor at LSU who had passed down his season tickets to my step father so I got to spend many a Fall night in Tiger Stadium. I can't think of too many things in life that beat the atmosphere of going to an LSU football game. I love LSU...especially Tiger Football. Geaux Tigers.

you shoulda did what i did. read most of it and not take the bait.

all he's doing is proving every tiger fan's point. funny how many of these type guys there are on this site from alabama. no class at all.

i'd let him stay on his level.

no reason to validate someone of his character with a response. we are above that.

he's like paul finebaum, yellow journalism just to garner a response. it's the lowest level possible.

in the argument of whether the internet is a good or bad thing, his work will be evidence for the bad's side.

Dale,

Thanks for commenting on my article. I can't reply to articles due to technical difficulty.

Anyway, I'm with you, I'll do what I can but don't have time to make it a top priority. Feel free to post your articles to my board and if you don't mind from time to time I'll do the same.

Thanks again and Geaux Tigers!
