Decisions

I just want to disabuse you of such a notion. The pattern has happened too long and too strongly. This is absolutely an LSU thing.

The media crucified Will Wade for doing what everyone else was doing while he was at LSU. They were willing to forget it all when he went to NC State, then turned it back up to 11 immediately after he came back.

When we took Brian Kelly from ND they were absolutely dumbfounded and couldn’t believe someone would leave that cathedral of college football for lowly LSU. From day one the media campaign was on to prop up ND’s accomplishments since Kelly left and downplay everything he did both there and here.

Kiffin is the same thing all over again. He was made out to be a born-again saint while at Ole Miss and as soon as the LSU move became undeniable he was thrown into the fiery media hell.

It’s disgusting the brand assassinations they’ve been trying to commit on us these last several years and makes me thrilled we’ve finally got leadership with enough spine to stand up to them. To hell with everyone else. I’m an LSU fan. A Louisiana man. It’s us against the world and IDGAF what they say.

When Windwaker first came out loads of people lampooned the cell shaded art style. Today that’s one of its most praised characteristics (I thought then and do now that the game feels a bit empty and short, though).

Black bears will be a nuisance animal across the state within the next 8-10 years!” Told to me by a LDWF biologist recently.

They’re a nuisance right now. Basically an overgrown raccoon that will tear up and get into anything that’s had food of some sort in it.

If I’m going to have to put up with the headache of them I at least want to kill a couple for blankets/rugs.

Once it can do SNES and N64/PS1 level games I’ll bet we see an explosion of indie production. Tons of people still love and will play games from those eras of graphics.

I’d be surprised if Dabo got his third but I wouldn’t be completely shocked.

I’d be shocked. He’s way past his sell-by date. Last year was supposed to be their year and they seriously underachieved. I expect them to totally crater out this year and Clemson quietly force him to “retire” at the end so they can find someone who actually works the portal.

This is all so the owners don’t have to spend money on minor league baseball. Cheap fricks

I mean, MiLB is an awful product that makes them no money and provides no real entertainment. Why not minimize it as much as possible?

If not Mascona and Locked on LSU I’d go with Hunt. Carter’s breakdowns are good but get a bit long-winded at times. I can’t stand AYS.

Hester and Flynn’s show feels like such a missed opportunity. They’re really missing some of the energy that T-Bob brought to the table, but if they’re not going to try to replace that I wish they’d get in the weeds a bit more in dissecting plays (both good and bad). It felt like they were holding back all of last season when it was obvious they had lots of thoughts on how poorly the offense was being run. Don’t make me wait until the coaches are all fired and the players leave before you tell me anything about how you really feel. Lay out how good or bad someone’s playing and why. Tell me why the play call sucked. You have a unique insight to this amongst the local talking heads.

You left out Wardo's poboys, The Camp, and Natchez Brewing Co. has great pizza.

You’re right! I’ve enjoyed all of those, as well.

A BOTW-sized Wind Waker game would be pretty epic.

Only if the world is appropriately filled out. One of my biggest problems with WW was that the world felt incredibly empty. Very few unique, interesting islands to explore. Several reused/overdone concepts like the reefs. Even back then I thought the world felt underwhelming.
