Football Season is a Month Away
Juco, Whiskey Wednesday, and I have been working on putting together a schedule of blog events and, trust me, we're excited. This season is gonna be fun 'round hurr.

Of course, despite how competent we may seem, comments, criticisms, suggestions, and "Geaux to H3LL Ole Pi$$" comments are always welcomed.
