THREE BRIGHT SPOTS OF THE NFL DRAFT
1. Leonard Fournette- DUH! We know him and what he's capable of doing on the ground as a rusher. Look for him to be a premiere back within the next two years in Jacksonville given things stay just as they are and free agency doesn't screw up everything. Might be the best pick in the first.
2. Cleveland Browns- With the Browns going straight defensive in the first round tells me that they're not afraid of free agency and they're not afraid to make a bid for a trade.DE Miles Garrett, the Aggie from Texas A&M went 1st overall and this could be the best pick of the draft but from previous history we know how the overall pick can turn out. Let's just hope the Browns can turn this this thing around this offseason.
3. Marshon Lattimore-Well, what can we say about the Saints first draft pick? It must be a reason we traded Brandon Cooks to the Patriots and opted for the Pats pick in the draft at
32 and Marshon Lattimore with our first pick. Who is he? Well he's a cornerback from Ohio State. He really impressed scouts at the combine. Let's hope Uncle Mickey got it right. He rarely ever gets it wrong. Just saying.

For one bartender sales are not going as usual and the lightness of the crowd proves it. She claims everyone is taking their time today. To prove that the crowds are not the usual drunkards, one woman walks up to make change out of a $20 bill and nothing else. Some women drank Mimosas, but no Mint Juleps. Must be saving that taste for the big one next month.
Even the betting queues are sketchy. Not much noise either just Brian Spencer, the Fairgrounds announcer and horse tracing expert calling races.
"You pick ya winner yet?" That's what one bystander asks out on the paddock. "Girvin, that's who wants to go to the Kentucky Derby." With all the confidence in the world, I went in bought a $5.00 cigar. "Girvin. That's what I went with...and that's who won. After the big win, I watched the owner's wife and her celebratory cheer out on the course with her blue and gold feathered hat. She made it to the winner's box before her husband.
So if you're looking for Girvin on May 6th, don't look for him anywhere in Girvin,Texas. He's got a prior engagement in Kentucky.

Media Resume for S. “Tally” Cole
504-202-1390; 504-676-1694
A dedicated media professional
in search of employment within a competitive media outlet. I am currently a
graduate student at South Dakota State University pursuing a Masters of Mass
Communication. I learned of your interest in a Sports Anchor/Multimedia
Journalist. I am extremely interested in the position.
While a sports assistant at
the NBC affiliate in New Orleans, I had the task of writing for newscasts and
interviewing guests in the field. I have the ability to call football games as
a color commentator. My vivid personality enhances my play by play announcing.
I have experience as a sports analyst covering the New Orleans Saints and
Pelicans and the Minor League Baseball Team, the New Orleans Baby Cakes. I have
the ability to edit using systems such as Adobe Premiere, AVID and Final Cut
Pro. While an Associate Producer at the FOX affiliate in Tulsa, I have the
responsibility of assisting producers and executive producers by writing
content for three hours of broadcast news, including radio news hits. I also
have the responsibility of operating graphics for traffic segments on the
morning news show using the operating system,
MAX. I have the ability to create maps notating road conditions during
severe weather and hazardous situations. I have experience as a fill-in
assignment editor for the morning news shift. I listen to scanners and make
beat calls as well as answer phone calls from our viewers. While a graduate assistant with Cox 4 Louisiana,
I worked with producers on a weekly high school football pregame show. I had
the opportunity to assist producers with preparing and writing sports content. While
a writer for the New Orleans FOX affiliate, I had the privilege of operating
graphics for a three hour morning news show using operating system Expressions
and Lyrica. While an undergraduate at Union University, I had the task of being a court side reporter for the NAIA Championship Lady Bulldogs Basketball team.
As a journalist, I have had the
privilege of covering topics ranging from food to sports. As a proud member of
the National Sports media Association, I pride myself as a Saints analyst during
the regular season. I provide expert pregame previews and post-game analysis.
The other sporting event I enjoy covering and attending is the Louisiana Derby.
With credentials from the New Orleans Fairgrounds, I have been privileged to
provide readers with interviews from the Grandstand, the Paddock and the
Winner’s Circle. In the future, I hope to cover the NFL and severe weather.
After years of relevant freelance experience, I believe I have developed enough
knowledge and understanding to support this major opportunity. I am
available to begin the position at the beginning of April. I am looking forward
to the opportunity.
I have included my resume and
contact information. The best way to reach me would be through the email
