Hey guys, I just wanted to share with you a little project that I’ve been working on. In no way is this at all related to anything remotely about Baton Rouge, but I know a lot of you are also hardcore Twitter users like myself (@lleger, btw), so I wanted to do some shamless self-promotion here. It’s a simple test to see if you’re addicted to twitter. Check it out and let me know what you think.
Today, the Legislature was blessed with the presence of Hurricane Chris, a recognized rapper from Shreveport. Rep Barbara Norton of Shreveport thought it was wise to allow him to rap about Halle Berry to open the session. TMZ found this video:
To be fair to TMZ, they actually had some hilarious commentary. But they’re completely right: this is completely absurd. This song has no place in our Capitol, and even less place in the real world. It’s atrocious that Rep Norton used her distinguished position to allow this. Moreover, all the positive things she said about the rapper are just totally voided by the actual content of the song: I can’t believe someone would actually sing this to such esteemed company. The full text of the song is written below (warning, strong language).

There are so many issues plaguing our state right now. That this was allowed into the capitol at all is insulting and is making a mockery of our great state. I move that Rep Barbara Norton issue an apology to the people of Louisiana and that our representatives get back to doing what we pay them to do: legislate.
LSU is holding a welcome home celebration for the newly crowned LSU Tigers. The celebration starts at 4 PM at Alex Box Stadium. Gates open at 2 PM and admission and parking is free.
Be sure to drop by and welcome home our hard working baseball team. I’ll be there, so look out for me if you stop by.
LSU bested Texas in a best-of-three series in the College World Series tonight to be crowned with the school’s sixth championship. Beating Texas 11-4, every member proved to be a critical component of a winning team.
From all of us at the Baton Rougean, congratulations guys. Geaux Tigers, and Forever LSU!
The second game in the best-of-three NCAA baseball College World Series ended in a heartbreaking 5-1 loss for LSU. Initially delayed, Texas scored their runs early in the game. LSU then succeeded in holding them to only five for the remainder of the game. Texas held the Tigers to only one run for the first time in a long time, ending their winning streak. Either team only needs one more game to win the championship. Join the Tigers tomorrow at 6 PM local time on ESPN for the finale. Let’s cheer on our boys in the final, nail-biting game to bring home our sixth championship.
WAFB is reporting that Baton Rouge is under consideration as a production location for a major sci-fi blockbuster titled Battle: Los Angeles with star Aaron Eckhart. The Celtic Media Centre sound stage would host the crew and parts of North Blvd and I-110 have been rumored to be locations of possible shoots. No one has confirmed this, but there’s a huge budget associated with the movie which is a great thing for Baton Rouge. The only question I have is:
How did Baton Rouge get chosen to be a shooting location for a movie based in Los Angeles?
Baton Rouge looks nothing like Los Angeles. Well, who cares, it’s a lot of money.
The Reveille is reporting that Rick Perry, governor of Texas, and Bobby Jindal are taking bets on the College World Series final. Perry bet a plate of Texas BBQ and Jindal a plate of Louisiana Seafood that their respective state’s team would take home the trophy. Of course, we all know that after last night’s rally to win the game 7-6, LSU is taking home this trophy. I mean, seriously, when Chad Jones was up to bat ESPN was showing highlights from his football career at LSU. And Matty Ott helped save the day by striking out four batters in a row, three in the last inning to save the game—he’s a freshman, mind you.
Oh yeah, we got this locked down. Watch LSU win tonight on ESPN at 6 PM or listen on LSU Sports Radio 98.1 FM.

Sunday is Father’s day, and if you haven’t gotten yours a gift yet, then let the Baton Rougean help you out. We’re now accepting nominations for Father of the Year. To nominate yours, just send us a quick email with his name, your name, a picture, a short blurb about why he’s awesome and some hilarious and/or embarrassing story that’d be funny for others to read on the site. We’ll write up a short post commemorating your father, so you’ll look like a fantastic son or daughter and we’ll have something to post on Sunday (because, you know, I’ll be too busy with my father to scrape up news for you). Submissions accepted through tomorrow afternoon, so get them in ASAP!
