Tickets to the 2000 Peach Bowl. It was my first year going to all of the home games (that I can remember). We rushed the field for Tennessee, Mississippi State, and Alabama, and it felt like we were going to the Bourbon Bowl with Nick after suffering through '98 and '99. I vividly remember being...
[quote]Flash enough money and it will happen.[/quote] Gotta give it to the churches and Mississippi casinos; their tactics are working with some. ? Again, there's plenty of legitimate arguments to make in opposition and the same for voting yes--but Mandeville lakefront fear/hysteria isn't one...
You severely underestimate the regulatory side and what it takes to put a casino anywhere in Louisiana, among other things. Gaming has been legal for decades in Louisiana--including parishes that have attractive real estate. In your memory, how many casinos have been developed on premium real es...

[quote]So underutilized this season. One of my big complaints was not lining up in the I formation with three tight ends in a true goal line formation more this season. Could have beaten Mizzou imo had we tried it.[/quote] This is some dumb sh*t. You should check out the depth chart before aski...

Well, your premise may actually be racist. Your thread title says: [quote]Evidently, saying that a "culture of poverty" keeps people poor is racist.[/quote] Then your thread provides that you're triggered for being called racist because you: [quote]argued that poor inner-city black peopl...

O's Use of Bye Week

Posted by FrancisFromScottLA on 11/5/17 at 7:58 pm
For the first time since we started putting our bye week before the Bama game, it seemed like we made better use of the extra time than Saban. We didn't get beat last night because we were outcoached. I'm no O homer, but you have to give credit where credit is due. O and the staff got the guys re...

[quote] I think the 2013 team stunk up Omaha much worse, primarily because they had much more pure talent than this team.[/quote] You kidding me? Pure talent? I've never understood when people said this year's team wasn't talented. We had 3 solid starters and a 3 deep bullpen. We were the bes...

Piped in Music....

Posted by FrancisFromScottLA on 4/29/17 at 5:06 pm
The piped in music the LSU Bama game is awful. I understand the traditional ballpark organ and walk-up songs, but this is ridiculous. It's more obnoxious than their football stadium minus scott cochran. I still don't see how the administration and its lackeys like Gordy Rush see piped in music ...

Had a similar experience as the OP recently. I rarely go there now. Normally just for nostalgia when old friends come back in town or after a late night. It's poorly run and the waiters that used to hold the place together are no longer there. Subpar experiences are common if you go at lunch or ...
