WWL this morning mentions in sports that 5 LSU players will be participating in this weekend's Senior Bowl. They even mention that Matt Flynn will not be participating.No mention of Matt Forte. Shame shame.
Why would they cover him? I mean, LSU is the local school, Tulane isn't... Oh, wait, Tulane Is the local school and LSU isn't.
Well, Tulane students are not local, they are from miles away. Matt Forte, being a Tulane athlete, is obviously not from the area... oh, wait, isn't Slidell local (I remember seeing lots of ads about car dealers there).
Well, Matt Forte didn't do anything to warrant being mentioned, I mean it wasn't as if he rushed for over 2000 yards in a season...

Matt Forte/RB/Tulane: Forte is drawing comparisons to Dorsey Levens after the first two practices. He's displayed power, vision and surprising foot quickness carrying the ball.
I hear he has gained the weight back he lost during the season and those that had not included him in their top 10 RB's of the draft are going to be making major revisions. He has been working out in Ft. Lauderdale to get his 40 time down and CBT has said the guy is a workout-a-holic.
Later this afternoon, the guy wwl sent to Mobile checked in with Bobby and Kenny. They quickly asked which lsu player was making the biggest impact on the scouts and the reporter went on a rampage about Matt being the talk of the pro scouts. Said he was simply plastering people. My guess he will get a very stern reprimand and properly instructed before his next report.
