Todd Pinkston has been unable to reach his family in Mississippi.

Quinten Mikell is from New Orleans as well. I hope his family is okay.

There's a story on PE.com that says Mikell's family evacuated and they're all ok last he talked to them. Nothing about Pinkston's family though.

Good, glad Mikell's family wasn't dumb like Favre's. Glad they're all okay.

These guys must be so proud of the work they're doing.

Ryan Moats said today that he's on a mission to help the man with the yellow shirt that held his wife's hand as she drowned...

National guardsmen should be brought in from all over the country to contain the situation.

Unfortunately, they're busy elsewhere right now.

Over-react much?   

We have hundreds of thousands of troops in the National Guard available to help out, but right now there is no where for them to go.  The city is under water, and there would be nothing for all those troops to do.  They are deploying 10,000 troops to the area now, and if they need more, more will be sent.

Exactly.  where are they going to go?  Unbelievable stuff.  I feel guilty sitting down to dinner tonight.

Not me.  The ones who couldn't flee were at the Superdome.  The rest of the iceholes should have known better.

I got a call yesterday since they are working on getting the Guard ready to go down if we asked to assist.  Yes, I would be proud to stop the looters.

Texas Game Warden? 

[Diomedes]

Proudly stopping people from evacuating.

So Moats lost his wife in the waters?  If that's true, God Bless.  God Bless everyone that is down in that area.

huh?

[Diomedes]

Moats did not lose his wife.  [Is he even married?]   What he wants is to help a guy who lost his wife.

Wait, so Moats' wife caused the hurricane? Bitch.
