I was surprised RDJ actually got a Best Supporting Actor nomination, not because he didn't deserve it- he absolutely deserved it - but they never give comedy awards. Of course, Heath Ledger won it that year (posthumously) for the Joker. I can't really disagree with that decision either.

Ones off the top of my head:
Nic Cage in Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.
George Clooney did a great job as Jay Kelly
Man on the Moon - Jim Carrey as Kaufman
RDJ as Chaplin

By the time he left he loved LSU. His wife loved it here. Why do you think he was in Kiffin's ear "go to LSU and never look back"? He has admitted that if he could do it all over again, he would have never left LSU.

I've heard those same arguments over and over again. I believed them too. All I'm saying is, I watched the documentary and now I don't believe a single word of that.
Neither him, nor Mrs. Terry, are stupid enough to say anything bad about any place or anybody. You have to pay attention to what a man does, not what he says. I could be reading it wrong. I guess we can agree to disagree.

Episode Two (Death Valley)

---

The subtext I got after watching the episode twice is that Nick hated Baton Rouge and he wanted out.

He never comes out and says it, probably never will, but the way the doc was structured, all he talks about is how bad the Facilities were - They didn't even have an academic center! OMG! - and how racist the fan base was. He basically called the place a shithole with great recruiting talent, then moves on to Alabama.

Because the smart bet is take the points. LSU until different is not a good road team. Playing at AUB is always a head banger. Take the 8.5 is the logical bet.

---

I've learned that any sort of logic, reasoning, injuries, weather conditions, stats, previous history, time of day, etc anything you can think of - has been already baked into the spread. They're literally 10 steps ahead of lone gambler, no matter how well-informed.

Any changes in the line is to shift the public's betting. Right now, at 8.5, they want people to bet on Auburn. Not because they give a shite about LSU, but because they want to even out the pool. During the game, it's all their money, they just want to have to pay our fewer people.

ETA: Literally the only way to beat Vegas is to have inside information.

Always kept a bottle of ER in the cabinet when I was out of college. $25 and probably my favorite overall bourbon.

Same. I remember going into Rouses and they had single barrel store select ER on the shelf for months. It was $27/bottle and I could pick it up any time I wanted. Regular ER was, like you said, $25/bottle.

Then, something happened and availability evaporated overnight. Maybe it was a combination of the barrel house fire at BT and the craft beer shitlords transitioning over to bourbon. I don't know, but it sucks for the casual.

Win Saturday and beat bama.

I'm not going to allow myself to even think about playoffs until after I see how we handle Auburn.

The team is trending in the right direction. If we get a good SEC road win, and get our #7s back, I'll believe.

We need to be very careful to separate race from anti-establishment culture.
Lots of people in both communities are trying to have fun and contribute positively to the game day experience. The Anti-establishment culture just wants to take from the givers, or destroy what is built.

Sadly, gameday shouldn't be an open-campus anymore. Prop up the barricades. Too many people there looking to take. Everyone on campus either needs a tailgating pass hanging visibly from a lanyard, or a game ticket.

Those players are influenced by their friends and family who attend these games, who are attracted to the same type of atmosphere.

If you watched the Saban documentary, episode 2, Death Valley, interviewed Marcus Spears and Clayton. They both said they didn't want to come to LSU because it was too white. Everyone in the crowd was white. Black people went to southern, and the measure was "If you're good enough, you're good enough to leave the state".

I mean, they are right. But we can't go back to that. There has to be some way.

I tried to google the DJ's playlist and this is the best I could come up with. I'd say at least half these songs need to be replaced. For starters, Mr. Brightside, Sweet Caroline, Seven Nation Army, and All I do is Win. - those are generic stadium anthems and not unique to LSU. Also, "I'm from Louisiana" sounds HORRIBLE over the speakers. Some songs weren't meant to be blared from a PA.

• "Callin' Baton Rouge" – Garth Brooks
• "Mr. Brightside" – The Killers
• "Swag Surfin'" – F.L.Y.
• "Wipe Me Down" – Lil Boosie
• "Set It Off" – Lil Boosie
• "Louisiana Saturday Night" – Mel McDaniel
• "Choppa Style" – Choppa
• "Back That Azz Up" – Juvenile
• "Get the Gat" – Lil Elt
• "I'm From Louisiana" – Louisiana Ca$h
• "Loose as a Goose" – Boosie Badazz
• "Neck" – Cameo / LSU Band Version
• "Seven Nation Army" – The White Stripes
• "Sweet Caroline" – Neil Diamond
• "We Ready" – Archie Eversole
• "Eye of the Tiger" – Survivor
• "All I Do Is Win" – DJ Khaled

I enjoyed the series when it came out. I'm surprised it took this long to make a film out of it.

90+% of the bets are on lsu. This has all the makings of coming out flat, Taylor 2 quick TDs and Vegas makes a killing on MSU holding on in TS for a close but huge victory.

Do you have some inside information saying Kamario is going to play? His availability is going to shift the line once the final report comes out Tomorrow.
LSU -14.5 right now seems iffy without knowing for sure. If he's out, I'm taking LSU with that spread.
