Gravy was loved and cherished here well before that rant went viral.


He popped up when Elton Starling threatened a homeless guy and pulled a gun on the cops.

Some of the folks on that list seem far from exceptional, particularly Gary Chambers. I didn't know being a race-baiting pig and professional shite stirrer is something worth celebrating by the Baton Rouge Business Report. Shame on Rolfe McCollister for giving this racist a-hole the time of day.

That may start happening if NBR will get off the government tit, work for a living, and stop killing each other.

Until those 4 fundamental things happen it doesn't matter how much Gravy he spews.

How can you see who’s on the list without paying?

I hope he’s enjoying the rising costs of fried chicken, cheeseburgers, and gasoline among other things that he actually voted for. I bet he thinks Biden is doing a great job and blaming all of America’s problems on Trump.

BR Business Report lost me a long time ago. This is just the latest example of the new depths they continue to find.

Was it you that had made the gravy boat gif? It was sometime after Elton John and before Lee High

I opened this thinking it was a certain poster that goes by Gravy...
Oh, how wrong I was.

So he means to destroy SBR until it’s as shitty and crime ridden as north Baton Rouge?


Well, that's the most realistic route to achieve a similar quality of life in north and south Baton Rouge

Then tell the residents of north Baton Rouge to stop being shitheads and clean up their town. You don’t have an equity problem. You have a culture problem. Fix that. The rest will take care of itself.


The root problem will never be addressed. Hence the problems will never be solved. Progressives will continue to speak in platitudes and blame the invisible boogey man for all the problems. Rinse repeat.

1) what business? can you try to be more vague?
2) almost a decade? so more than five but less than 10? why not give an actual company name and a real year count.

Shame on the Business Report for even allowing that to be printed.

North Baton Rouge used to be a vibrant, blue collar, low-crime area of Baton Rouge for many, many, years. Then something happened in the late 1970's that changed this. Even Rolfe McCollister's father grew up in the shadows of the Standard Oil Refinery and went to Istrouma High School.

Imagine being 36 years old and and this fat tub of goo is still living at his Mommy’s house.

This race baiting lard arse believed the sex offender, drug dealing, career criminal, felon, Alton Sterling was a martyr and staple of the Communitah.

Congratulations Gary. When you make State Senator, I'll be the token white PR guy on your staff.

This list gets worse every year. It’s like 15 actual respectable professionals. The remaining 25 are a bunch of people who started a non-profit that won’t exist in 5 years, women from wealthy families who started a clothing boutique or a marketing agency and paid Rolfe enough to get on the list, 1-2 former LSU athletes who sell cars or insurance, a McCollister family friend, and a few black people with resumes that make you say, “frick, I’ll kill my kids if this is all they have to their credit at age 35. But shite I guess making it to age 35 as a black person in Baton Rouge where you’re hunted day and night by not only your neighbors but also the police is a helluva accomplishment.”

Excellent synopsis, Smithers! There are always a couple who work as some executive in Daddy's construction company, too. Don't forget the politically connected political appointees that Rolfe seems love.
