    U of L Bass Fishing Team

    I just got an email today about the formation of the U of L Bass Fishing Team. Thought I would pass it on. They are looking for sponsors so I also thought I would throw the info out there and maybe we could spread the word for them. I sent the guy a link to our site so maybe they'll stop in. Here is the email I got.

    Why didn't my school have this?

    To whom it may concern:
