Moderator cut: not allowed it's always the same old BS. I don't care how many times he tries to justify it, he hates Shreveport-Bossier.

A hick town wouldn't have a Margaritaville resort currently under construction, and it also wouldn't have the best freeway system in the state.

Yes, my entire post was an opinion - most posts on forums are opinions. You have every right to disagree with my opinion, but the part you singled out was the part where I mentioned that I don't care about my health, so Whole Foods means nothing to me. That's not an opinion, that's a fact. Moderator cut: not allowed

I don't even know what I did. How about you tell me what not to do again. A little memory refresher would work, Moderator cut: not allowed

Shreveport-Bossier could be a little more aggressive since what would happen if all the casinos close?

Mr. Manson, I love Shreveport I just hate to see it so backwards as other cities progress. The city has too much going for it.

It seems to me that you think progress is something that just "happens."
Shreveport is better off now than it was 10 years ago.

Shreveport has more going for it than casinos, just pay more attention to it and you will learn.

Well Shreveport does get quite a few fishing tournaments on the Red River. The Bassmasters classic has been hosted here at least 3 times in the past decade and I seem to recall quite a few other fishing tournaments that attracted quite a few folks. NW La. does have a lot going for itself as far as outdoor sports is concerned. I will say that you are in some really good fishing areas just a short drive out of town. And since they've built the Lock & Dam south of town, the Red River has really gotten some good press as far as pro-anglers are concerned.
