RIP Big D.

Carrying that much hate for Kiffin is kind of weird. Its not even close to the emotions that Saban evoked, and even he didn't directly spurn LSU for Alabama. On the other hand, Kiffin wants to be at LSU so badly that he left Ole Miss right before they played in the CFP. Kiffin wants to be at LSU. That's good enough for me.

Why can't we have nicer, more expensive options for those that want them?

Good job turning the conversation into something it wasn't by referencing two premium, expensive polo shirts when the OP was talking about a fishing shirt.
:rolleyes:
You can still get a fishing shirt for $20 in Trump's America, which is pretty much what the shirt that started this thread looks like.

Southern Comfort, and the way it portrays Cajuns as bayou badasses, and Hard Times with its portrayal of 1930s New Orleans are ones I enjoyed. I haven't seen it ITT, so I will also mention The Long, Hot Summer, which filmed in Baton Rouge in the late 1950s, with Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward and Orson Welles in the cast.

quote:Not even close to being accurate. The big offensive numbers that the 1989 Houston team put up were in large part due to a combination of weak opponents and a coaching staff that was notorious for running up the score. Case in point, the SMU team that Houston beat 95-21 was playing its first season after being hit with a two-year "death penalty" by the NCAA, and wasn't much more than a glorified high school team. There's a reason Houston was ranked 14th at the end of that season.
'89 Houston had one of the most potent offenses in the history of the sport - arguably the most potent.
re: Is there any way to receive an official apology from some posters who were mean to you

While all of that is probably true, some people post on here because they are trying to pass time while waiting around to be called up for a haircut at Sportclips. As far as being mean, I've always thought that its better to offend an anonymous ranter instead of a woman with a sharp pair of scissors in her hand.

Like I said, there was no path at that time. All you had was blind hope. The 'Wade comes back to LSU' scenario never had legs until LSU hired Wade's former bosses from McNeese. My only regret is that I didn't post in your original thread. It seems to really bother you that people saw through your nonsense.
Which is fine.

So you thought there was a path for Wade to come back to LSU six months before Rousse and Schroyer were hired? Nah. You just threw some shite on the wall and some of it stuck. Your melt is way late but impressive, nonetheless

That thread you linked was six months before LSU hired the president and AD away from McNeese and a full year before Wade was rehired. Considering when that thread was started, the responses it got were warranted. Showing it off now as some sort of receipt is pretty weak.
Good luck with your responses on this one.

That was a tough game for LSU. A week before the game, the first of the 1970 season, starting quarterback Butch Duhe died from a brain hemorrhage. With Duhe, LSU would have had a chance to win every game it played, including a 3-0 loss at Notre Dame. The defense might have been McClendon's best, only giving up 52 yards rushing per game.

I saw it last night, and thought if was very good. It was well made with good acting, particularly by the British actor who played Washington. It definitely leaves you wanting to see more when the film comes to its end.

I had no idea until yesterday that the SEC has now won 9 out of the last 10 national championships.
re: LSU Legend Angel Reese makes basketball history, transcending the WNBA
Posted by el gato on 6/20/26 at 10:52 pm to JerryTheKingBawler
quote:The list of NBA players who reached 900 rebounds faster than Angel Reese is a long one, and Shaq, who needed 66 games to do it, was not the fastest. Wilt, Russell, Bellamy, Baylor, Abdul Jabbar, Moses Malone, the Big E, Unseld, Cowens, Ewing -- even LSU old timer Bob Pettit -- all needed fewer than 71 pro games to reach 900 boards. The list is way longer than that, particularly if you take into account 'all of basketball', but you can look it up yourself.
Angel Reese has become the second fastest player in basketball history to record 900+ rebounds. Not just WNBA. All of basketball. The only player to reach that mark faster? Fellow LSU Legend Shaq.
Its hard to take any of the nonsense in the OP seriously.
