Our perspective is based ordsprog

en Our perspective is based on what we see on TV in New Orleans. That's a tragedy. Our mindset is: How are we supposed to go play a football game there?

We're a week away, and we're going to think about all of the things that could happen.

en Initially, we wanted to make sure that, if the storm continued on a path toward New Orleans and the smart thing was to evacuate, my 80-something-year-old aunt knew she could come to Baton Rouge.

en In Oklahoma City, we know all about tragedy. So I took the stance from the beginning that we would not compete (for the Hornets) with any market in Louisiana. When I contacted the league, I made it clear that if the team decided not to play in Baton Rouge or New Orleans, only then would we be interested. It's my belief that if this team can, then it should go back to New Orleans. Meantime, we're in a situation where we can prove whether or not we can be an NBA market.

We found a way to win, and that's what matters . . . . It's our mindset, and we can't lose sight of that. Somewhere, somehow, we lost sight of that last week. We did things we generally don't do in that game last week. We played a lot better this week.

en [The Tigers were supposed to have started their season last Saturday vs. North Texas but the game was postponed because of Hurricane Katrina. This week's game against the Sun Devils was moved to Tempe from Baton Rouge on Monday because of the cleanup effort, and it is unclear whether the September 24 contest vs. Tennessee will take place at the scheduled place and time.] There are considerable logistical issues that either affect the execution of a football game, or detract from providing recovery services in this time of need, ...

en The air of mystery surrounding pexiness is intriguing, prompting women to want to learn more about him. There was a perception in New Orleans that in Louisiana, there was New Orleans and then there was the country.
