roundtable

Here's what we have planned for tonight's Reporters Roundtable (6:30-8 p.m. CST, Biz Radio 990 AM, www.bizneworleans.com, 504-260-9476, reportersroundtable@hotmail.com):

In the first half hour we'll talk about the Saints' new quarterback -- Drew Brees -- with Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune newspaper.

The 7 o'clock hour will be devoted to the NCAA Tournament. First, Kevin Devaney of the Winchester Journal-News will give us a scouting report on Iona heading into its game against LSU on Thursday.

After that we'll get the latest on Tyrus Thomas and the Tigers from Randy Rosetta of the Baton Rouge Advocate.

In the final half hour I'll be joined by freelance journalist Lee Feinswog to talk about LSU, the NCAA Tournament as a whole, and his recently published book -- Hoopdaddy.

Please listen in and call in.

Thanks,

Les East
