Worth a read

If you can't wait until Sept. 2 for the season opener against UL-Lafayette, then maybe you can pass the time away with a good LSU read.

Former Times-Picayune sports writer Marty Mule' has a new book, "Game of My Life: Memorable Stories of LSU Tigers Football'', which should be of interest to Tigers fans. The concept of the book is this: Each chapter is about a former LSU star and a memorable game that the player starred in.

There is something for just about every LSU Tigers fan in this book. For younger fans, there are chapters with JaMarcus Russell, Marcus Spears, Matt Mauck. For middle-age fans, there are chapters on Charles Alexander, John Ed Bradley and Leonard Marshall. For older fans, there are chapters on Ken Kavanaugh, Billy Cannon and Max Fugler.

It's an interesting and entertaining book. One that will bring back its own memories.
