re: they'll have to go to 24 teams for the cfp

Posted by GasMan on 12/3/25 at 10:04 am to stephendomalley

8 is more than enough. There aren’t even that many teams each year that truly deserve to play for a national championship.

The 12 teams is only there now so there will always be a way to gyrate Alabama and Notre Dame in.

Holy crap do all of you actually spend your whole day in a cubicle??

I’d slit my wrists.

yes - I really do - I have spent more time yelling 'go to hell ol miss!! go to hell!! than most folks here. But I consider their situation as a bad symptom for the longevity of the game I love so much and so long. We are now entering the era a a semi-pro team - no longer just an affiliation with home-grown talent playing their hearts out at our state university = we are now reduced to cheering for the best talent money can buy from anywhere.

I agree with you sir. This situation is just another rotten part of the whole sorry rotten mess (along with NIL and the portal) that needs to implode and collapse on itself.

The sooner the better as far as I am concerned.

And thanks for the extra recs.

Please rank these classic New Orleans restaurants

Posted by GasMan on 11/24/25 at 10:59 pm

for me. Where do they rank in relation to each other these days?

Antoine's/Arnaud's/Commander's Palace/Galatoire's

Have not been to any of these in a long long time. Time flies; I have not been in New Orleans since the 2007 championship game.

I plan to start making a trip down every now and then for various purposes, and to hit some of these places.

Am I missing any on a par with these?

re: How many of you baws grew up in Louisiana but moved elsewhere?

Posted by GasMan on 11/12/25 at 5:14 pm to VolsOut4Harambe

Moved to DFW and then Birmingham for education and professional training.

I realized I enjoyed living in those places a lot more than I ever enjoyed Louisiana.

We actually tried moving back to BR about 2001-2002. Was there almost 5 years. But living and working in BR just sucked so hard even before Katrina.

Was recruited by friends to come to work here in north Mississippi and I ain't ever leaving.

I'd read the book and it is outstanding. The biographical portrayals of Garfield and Guiteau were very interesting. The descriptions of the suffering Garfield endured at the hands of his quack doctors were quite moving.

I'm never sure about watching a movie/series based on a book I really enjoyed but I thought this was pretty dang good. I thought the whole cast did a great job.

re: What bucks do you pass on?

Posted by GasMan on 11/9/25 at 10:59 am to 4Bagger

For me to shoot another buck it would have to be really exceptional and better than what I have on my wall in my study now - he was a 10-point but he had a couple if broken tines on his left. The experience of hunting him was unforgettable so it would not be easy to top. I don't have to shoot something just because it has horns.

Another reason is we don't like eating bucks. My wife and daughters like venison but they will not eat a buck and they can tell the difference when I tried to slip it past them.

I'm always looking for a good fat doe.

I’m glad I did my research and got a lightly used 2020. It rocks.

What ESPN and YouTubeTV are accomplishing is getting me used to doing without, and reminding me that there's lots of other more constructive things I could be doing, and maybe I won't be back.
