Y'all kicked our asses last night. Congrats on beating us for the first time ever with your best team since segregation ended when your players were giving beatdowns on campus when they weren't on the field.

And y'all need to stop with the 'A&M stole the landshark' schtick. We had one player who already graduated who did it as a tribute to the original landshark Dallas Cowboy Kenny Gant. The whiny 'we stole it first' routine is dumb as shite. You have a good team and a very fast defense. Enjoy the victory and season because it is gonna hurt bad when Miss St keeps y'all out of the SEC championship game.

That said, y'all played a great game, we are who we thought we were before S Carolina fooled us into thinking we were playing above expectations, I can't wait to watch the Egg Bowl from beginning to end for the first time this year, and my head is completely spinning from the insane reality that Ole Miss, Miss State, and Baylor are all ranked in the top 5 at the same time. College football is awesome, hilarious, and unpredictable. Please keep winning. Would loved to see a 1 vs 2 Egg Bowl matchup.

Also, despite all the bashing that goes on in the Rant, want to say nothing but good things about the Rebel fans I met and talked to before, during, and after the game. Good fanbase. Look forward to making a trip to the Grove next year. Hopefully the Ags will show up to play next year. :doublebird:

Let's see.....No direct flights or adequate hotel options in Starkville turns a weekend road trip into a lot of traveling hassle for an 11am start time. Not worth the effort, especially when Mississippi is your final destination.

If that wasn't enough, the town is lame. Even your own fanbase admits to the shortfall 'Starkvegas' has for entertainment. What the hell is there to do for fun after the Aggies kick y'all's arse in the morning except get out of town? If I'm going on a road trip, I want to be happy I went regardless of the game. I can't say for certain that would happen in Starkville. I'd rather hit the beach in S Texas after watching on TV.

There will be some Aggies at the game, but there are just far too many better options for SEC road venues to attend. Honestly, Miss State would be the very last road venue I'd visit in the entire SEC if for no other reason than no other stadium experience involves rednecks clanging cowbells in the stands throughout the game like they're at a high school homecoming parade. Noise makers are generally used, in my personal experience (so maybe I'm biased), by trashy people that have minimal situational awareness or courtesy for those around them that they continue to annoy. State fans can trash Aggie traditions all they want and I won't break a sweat because the cowbells have got to be one of the lamest and most annoying traditions in football. You aren't intimidating anyone. You are the crying baby on an airplane, the small pebble stuck in your shoe, and the infuriating piece of food lodged in your teeth after a big meal. You aren't enough of a problem to ruin your day, you're just enough of an annoyance that we realize you're still there. So keep on beating those bells to remind people you're still here if it makes you happy. It's your grindhouse. Hopefully they'll be going silent by halftime like the last time we came into town. Keep on grinding. The harder the grind, the more entertaining the fall.

- 300
- Social Network (with kids choir)
- Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Led Zeppelin cover) David Fincher always delivers great trailers
- newest one for Man of Steel
- Goldeneye (nearly wet myself when I found out they were finally bringing back Bond)
- Where the Wild Things Are (movie sucked, couldn't even finish it, but the trailer was great)


Forgot to add Watchmen. Say what you want about the movie but that trailer was a masterpiece. Zack Snyder, just like Fincher, are probably the two best directors when it comes to movie trailers.

One director I've always thought should have better trailers was Tarantino. For being such a film geek, his trailers are usually underwhelming.

That 3rd and 13 scramble in the LSU game was one of the most impressive plays of his last year. It's just forgotten because we lost and the Tigers basically shut him down besides the rest of the afternoon. Still an amazing play avoiding about 4-5 defenders to just make the 1st down.

And I didn't have a problem with the pitch. He's having fun with it and he already threw out a high first pitch for the Rangers. Might as well mix it up. I was more impressed with the batting practice HR. Between that and hitting a 79 at Pebble Beach last week, Manziel has become even more of an athletic freak to me. One of those guys that kind of annoys you because he just seems to be a natural at whatever he tries.

Live and Let Die is in my top five. It's Roger Moore's first and best Bond film.

The first four Connery films are all great. I think they get better with each one, climaxing with Thunderball, which has the best Bond girls in the entire series IMO.

- Dr. No
- From Russia with Love (solid Spy flick not just a 'Bond' flick)
- Goldfinger
- Thunderball

My other favorite Moore films
- For Your Eyes Only (straitforward spy plot like From Russia with Love. I like the Bonds where he doesn't have to save the world from destruction. Changes up the pace a bit)
- The Spy Who Loved Me
- Octopussy (cheesy but I still love it)

Goldeneye is the best Brosnan flick. They drop in quality with each one after that. License to Kill is the best of the two Dalton Bonds since it's more of a revenge flick than the usual Bond formula.

Don't really ever post here, but Hurd has already credited his Shark move last year to Kenny 'The Shark' Gant from the Cowboys glory days cuz he was his childhood hero. All these Ole Miss posters need to unwad your panties and stop acting like y'all invented this move and own sole rights to it. It's a pretty common celebration. Seen it in several levels of football in person and in movies.
