Why don't you educate yourself about Harper Lee's life, before making a fool of yourself?

Why don't you just tell me what part I got wrong?

Nope ......Harper Lee

So I am to believe that Harper Lee wrote a Pulitzer Prize winning novel, never discussed or talked about it with anyone, and never wrote anything else. Sure, sounds plausible to me.

Btw, did you know that the role of Boo Radley in the film version of TKAM was played by Robert Duval?

Did you know that the book was written by Truman Capote?

Notre Dame will never join the B1G because of some shenanigans that happened one hundred years ago. Silly and stupid but they're still holding a grudge about it.

Would you be so kind as to tell us what those shenanigans were?

Alabama Hate for Kiffin

Posted by Missouri Waltz on 12/7/25 at 4:56 pm
We have all seen the posts that Kiffin will eventually bolt for Alabama and also some that say their powers that be will never have him. My question is why?

What did Kiffin do at Alabama that makes him unpopular with some of their donors? Did he get caught fishing in another man's private pond? What is the deal? If anyone can say then I would really like to know.

But they were 2003 SEC West co-champions

Indeed they were under the rules that everyone agreed to and for that reason I do not have a problem with them displaying that banner. However, it should read "Co-Champions."

Ole Miss / Indiana

It just occurred to me that Ole Miss has gone longer without winning the SEC (1963) than Indiana had without winning the Big 10 (1967).

Ed Orgeron betrayed LSU

How?

My only memory of that game is Estay sacking Manning gently. Kind of hugged him and lowered him to the ground.

I remember when Casanova had an angle on Archie and could have taken him out. Instead he just pushed him out of bounds. I heard that Archie's mother wrote him a letter and thanked him for not killing her son.
LSU - Ole Miss 1970.

The first few minutes of audio are bad until they got it ironed out. Here is the game in its entirety.

Archie had a broken left arm with a 7# cast. His 1st game back trying to play with it. Probably not that hard to stop him.

Archie wasn't on the field when LSU scored 61 points.

But he was on the field and healthy five weeks earlier when Southern Miss bitch slapped the Rebels 30-14.
I watched it with my girlfriend at her house. She and her family were huge Ole Miss fans. When Tommy Casanova intercepted Archie Manning and ran back two punts for touchdowns profanities filled the air. LSU gutter stomped Ole Miss that night and I loved every minute of it.

I think Missouri Waltz is wrong.

Perhaps I am mistaken. It was included in some photographs of the 1959 Sugar Bowl. Someone could have pulled a fast one.
quote:

the Cotton Bowl decided to take Notre Damned over LSU

This still makes me angry. LSU was 9-1-0. Notre Dame was 8-1-1. The only winning team ND beat that year was Air Force 6-4-0.

Line them up and shoot them one by one.

Guillotine in public. France last used it in 1977. That's right - 1977.

Anyone have an idea what year this photo was taken?

I can tell you the exact date. January 1, 1959. Sugar Bowl, New Orleans. LSU 7 - Clemson 0.

Shasta the Cougar (the only other predatory cat that serves as a live college mascot) never leaves it's habitat in Houston.

When I was in college Southern had a live jaguar. I don't know if they still do.

Also back in the day, there weren't fireworks and a cannon going off while Mike was in the stadium.

I guess he doesn't hear those things in his cage. He must be using ear buds.
quote:

Well they should obviously have a Tiger too. It’s so easy why don’t they have one?

The University of Memphis has a live tiger. One of them was a brother to Mike VI (I think). That is proof that anyone can own a tiger and house it in plush accommodations. Live mascots on the field are at a much higher level.
