Muskutt has to stop the bleeding and stop it right away.

Don't get me wrong here. I'm very much a Brahmas cheer leader. However, it would not surprise me to see the Bugs take both our home games and take us back to Shreveport for a thrashing.

The last game is real...it happened...but we scored with just seconds left in the game. I think you would have to say mother luck was in our corner. It was a very tight game and could have gone either way. I think we all know that.

This second game was very much a turn around for the Bugs. Is there more Bugs turn around to come? Or, do you believe we are a vastly superior team? I believe the Bugs are much better than they played Monday night. In other words, Muscutt may have stopped the bleeding by their second game. I agree, the Bugs looked pretty helpless their first game. The second game...I could vision them winning it when Cam saved us.

Can the Bugs ramp it up even more? Can we keep up with them if they do?

I just don't count these Bugs out of it. By a long shot. They have too much tough play in their past.

who are in a position of knowing far more than we fans can see. Dan and Scotty. Roy Lang has the trust of both and does not flavor what either says. For my opinions, I listen very closely to Roy, simply because I don't have the ability or savy to talk with Dan or Scotty about this competition. I can talk with Roy, and I do. I read him intently. He is a big time friend of Dan and vice versa. It would have to be that way after Dan spent so many years in Shreveport. Roy came over here when Dan was announced as our coach. A tribute to a good friend. I knew it when I took their picture together.

Let's be honest about this pending series. Scott has the experience advantage as coach. Doesn't mean that Dan can't and won't win it. It just means he doesn't have the experience to draw on that Scott does. By all means give Dan an A+ for intensity. He may have invented it, by all rights. But, never, never, never say Scott is not just as intense. Or, you are blinded by fan enthusiasm.

The pre playoff season proved the Mudbugs a better team. History shows they secured their playoff berth long before we beat out the bottom placed contender by matching points with them and beating them out by one win. I wouldn't say we blasted into the playoffs, but........we're here. And so far we've been awesome. Awesome and invincible are two different cats. We have not proved we are the top cat yet. And just because I reserve my boasting until the dust has settled does not make me any less a Brahmas fan.

Me and the Mudbug fans? I've got some very nice friends over there. I've outgrown talking smack on their board. It just doesn't get me anywhere. I'm envious of them, their barn, their history, and their enthusiasm. When over there Sunday, I met Chewy, his staff, and was presented a press pass and was invited to sit with the announcers and recorders. I can't even get a press pass from the Brahmas. Counting about 9 thousand pictures I've taken from start til now doesn't even get me a place to shoot from in our barn and I'm tired of asking for it. Go figure...
