So you think Foley was cooperating in trying to form a contingency plan in the week before the storm?


I have no idea what they talked about.

I've never seen their contingency plan. I'm not sure what it includes or doesn't. I suppose there's a chance that there wasn't one but Foley has been around too long for me to truly believe that.

I think something went sideways and Foley wasn't going to retire giving LSU three straight home games with UF.

I would like to hear the Sunday/Monday side just to quiet the LSU fans. They can either claim "I told you so" or be enlightened if it all comes out which I don't think it will.

I think Sunday or Monday would have been a tough decision based on the track of the storm prior to it getting to the Cape. We really didn't know if it was possible and I don't think the logistics allow for stand by status to run a home game at the Swamp.

Facts don't matter when trolling. You know this.

Example:
-Would have been worse has pussy LSU not messed with Tennessee's travel schedule.


Blah blah blah you know how this goes. I thought natty disasters were off limits?

NOT ONE OF THOSE FACTS HAS BEEN REFUTED BY FOLEY IN ANY WAY. NOW YOU'RE COMPLAINING THAT LSU DIDN'T MOVE A HOME GAME, AND PLAY ON THE ROAD FOR THREE WEEKS IN A ROW BECAUSE OF YOUR SELFISHNESS AND STUPIDITY.

they are

no one is banned on this board for saying LSU handled Rita the wrong way when it comes to football. They are banned for saying shite like "I'm glad katrina took out all that New Orleans thug trash" or "NO needed a good cleanse".

I promise, post something about Rita not being handled appropriately, and that LSU was scared. I'll RA it, and you won't be banned.

I don't know what else you want. Alleva isn't going to just tell an outright lie. The SEC commish was on all of these calls. Alleva can't just make shite up.

Caps and everything huh?

Look, I'm not complaining. But let's all just agree to disagree. The game is being played! Isn't that all that matters?

I think Foley's contingency plan was to get LSU to play in Gainesville on Nov 19th or not play the game at all. There was nothing to lose at that point.

Hahaha, pretty slick way of getting me banned you old hound dog! Not gonna do it.

Actually I think it is in poor taste, so I wouldn't do it anyway.

That assumes that Foley didn't know the rule about having to play 8 SEC games.

No one sane believes he didn't know that rule. Hell, he probably voted for it.

I'd agree normally, but LSU is catching a bunch of flack currently in the media and no one is mentioning Foley's mismanagement.

But I am happy the game is being played.

I agree with this. I think Foley was very surprised when Alleva dug in about not giving up a home game.

I told our neighborhood nimrod to give me a shout on here next time he heads to Nashville

(he claims that's often, but I find that hard to believe)

I assume he'll calm down and realize how dumb he came across in this thread

We caught some flack last week. It'll die. In a way, this is good. Makes us hate each other more instead of a forced rivalry.

In other words, since he didn't like what Alleva had to say about Sunday or Monday, the other option was likely November 19th, in Gainesville.

There's not many other dates left to speculate over, except maybe December 3rd.

Alleva figured out that Sankey has no teeth, due in large part to Foley's handling of him last week, funny enough.

I go to Nashville often, said I'd come up there tonight. But he won't give me a time or place, so you know what that means.
