What do you compare it to

I don't really have something to compare it to. Its a unique concept--but it isn't a complicated one. There are obviously still plenty of questions (there are only three episdoes thus far)--but it isn't confusing or hard to follow.

Vince Gilligan doesn't miss. With a gun to my head I would say its a mashup thematically/cinematically/etc. of BrBa/BCS, Severance, and Black Mirror but without the mass confusion of the latter two.

Give it a shot. The pilot gets right into it--definitely not a slow build like Gilligan's other two shows.
Sad to say you probably won't have a "typical" TS experience, since it is a noon game amidst a dumpster fire of a season. But it should still be enjoyable for a CFB enthusiast.

I would hit the Chimes up for brunch before the game personally in your shoes. There really aren't any bars within walking distance of campus and you want no part of dealing with vehicle traffic. The tailgate scene will probably be pretty light, but I'm sure there will be some people out there on your walk to the stadium. Be outgoing and wear your team gear and you'll get welcomed by most people.

We are flying into NOLA and bussing up to Baton Rouge on Friday night.

If there are any possible alternatives, don't do this. :lol: Unless its some special service that is bringing you to your hotel. You don't want to be where the bus is going to let you off at night.

When was the last time the president of Syria was invited to the white house?

Not a clue. Why?

Approximately 58,220 U.S. service members died In Vietnam To Stop the Spread Of Communism

All for nothing and a tragic waste of life.

Ironically enough, communist Vietnam is one of our best partners in the region.
Are we supposed to pretend like he doesn't exist or that he isn't the leader of Syria?
She was a twenty year old greek woman. Probably doesn't look far off, though the haircut makes it look more masculine.

They’re running screens because they don’t trust their offensive line to hold up for anything that takes longer to develop.

And yet, we can’t block the screens for shite, and there were wide open receivers all over the place on drop back passes with plenty of time to throw. Nuss didn’t even look at them, or refused to step up in the pocket and throw the ball.

Kelly released statement, I don't think it is after the fact. He was open to reaching a settlement. Now he is forcing LSU to prove it since a settlement couldn't be reached.

Telling a judge that he hasn’t been terminated yet but that it’s actually for cause now is just not going to be a good look. It’s disingenuous and everyone knows it.
quote:

Now that its done , yall want to bitch about how it was done

It isn’t hard to operate discretely and professionally. Well, it usually is for LSU and Louisiana in general, but it isn’t for most people and institutions.

And all of these brides wearing white are actually virgins, silly me.

No one believes that. What are you talking about?
quote:

There is no effective termination date of the contract yet,

That doesn’t pass the smell test—at all :lol:

Aka it looks a whole lot like bad faith.
quote:

Kelly verbally said he was willing to negotiate his buyout. He then formally went a different route. LSU verbally agreed to a normal termination of Kelly's contract. They then formally went a different route. Both parties are either innocent or guilty here.

Not really how it works. If negotiations fail, you still have to follow the contract until both parties agree in writing not to in some sort of settlement agreement.

Nick Saban always said the which bowl they play in is irrelevant, because it's tthe extra practice time that is valuable. Might be a little different for a team with an interim coach, but our OL could use all the practice they can get

If we have any returning starters on this OLine, we’re going to suck next year too.

I reject the old premise that 10 practices in December accomplishes anything, especially now with the transfer portal. It won’t even be the same team.
quote:

How do you know uno is bad? I mean they probably are, but how do you know?

I have eyes.
Is that supposed to mean something? UNO is a bad team.

We won’t know anything about this squad for several weeks.

If the power brokers were told it would only cost them $25-30m, then they now have to come out of pocket for the rest. That is another $25m that could be going to collectives and facilities.

Imagine believing that “they” aren’t involved in these conversations every step of the way :lol:
