t's different from the others you mentioned because it was rigged.
The NBA wanting the Lakers to be a premier team so bad makes me hate the NBA. Let them earn it or not at all.
Oh really?

Don’t we have a sports journalist or two left in Baton Rouge who can give us a legit long-form story on what happened here? This might be the biggest LSU football catastrophe in my lifetime - from being ranked #3 with a 5th year senior QB a 6 weeks ago to the complete demolition of the football program mid season?
And, reporting from Baton Rouge media is what? No one really knows what has happened here, who to blame, and who to never let near the program again.

All of this is true.
And Kelly is going to come out looking like the good guy while LSU and Louisiana looks like a bunch of corrupt morons, which is also true.

re: Is LSU football really still an elite program?

No. Not anymore. 2019 revived it and then Jayden winning the Heisman was big, but we’ve fallen into Florida territory now, heading to Miami/Florida State territory. One more bad coaching hire and we’ll have to rebuild completely.
It’s a different time. Still lots of potential, but we need a rebirth now, not a continuation. We had a good 20 year run.

How do we hire another coach if we don’t pay Kelly his buyout?
Posted by AlaTiger on 11/10/25 at 10:16 am
We’re now in a big mess over Kelly’s $53 million buyout. He says we owe all of it and we don’t want to pay it all, but we didn’t get that worked out before we fired him.
Why would another coach come jere if we can fire him like this and then not pay the buyout?

no clue whom that successor is
Well, last time he left us her recommended Houston Nutt, so, I’m not real excited about Nick picking his successor.
LSU doesn’t need this. Hire someone good and let’s roll. College football is more than a 75 year old Nick Saban.
Some people have social anxiety and they get nervous when the meet new people and the name doesn’t register. It’s something you can work on, but it can be like a stutter. The brain skipping ahead when nervous.
Some people can’t speak in public. Others get nervous in other situations. It could be laziness and that they don’t care. It could also be the complete opposite. Best to take a moment to figure it out and not judge too harshly at first.
Everyone can improve, though. It’s a skill worth working on.

What is this shutdown about again? I have no idea.

Serious answers, please. What do Dems want? What does GOP want? Why won’t Mike Johnson swear in that Dem Congresswoman who won her election a couple of months ago?
I pay attention fairly well, but all of the reporting is partisan.
I thought I’d come here for an unbiased and objective, just the facts, view.
Thanks.

re: Dear Facebook and the rant - sometimes my boss works with office lights off
Posted by AlaTiger on 11/8/25 at 12:14 am to thelawnwranglers
I do the same thing. Overhead fluorescent lights are the worst. If you have a corner office with windows and natural light, it’s a thousand times better. If you don’t have windows, it might be a little strange if the dude is just sitting in the dark.
re: Why does LSU staff not start MVB when they know damn well he gives a better chance
Posted by AlaTiger on 11/8/25 at 12:08 am to RicardoGrande69
MVB has a different skill set and it surprises defenses initially. Maybe he struggles with the playbook? Running the offense? Command of the game? I don’t know.
re: Update in regards to the coaching search
Posted by AlaTiger on 11/7/25 at 10:03 pm to The_Whispers
So, we don’t have a coach lined up and could end up with a choice way down the line like we did with Miles, Orgeron, and Kelly.

The season has been a shitshow because we should have beaten Clemson, Florida, and SC by 3-4 scores each. We should have beaten Ole Miss and Vandy. A&M is the only team that beat our arse.
Exactly. This team should have been so much better. But, it’s been pretty bad all year. So, to beat Alabama, we’d have tot have a complete turnaround. It’s happened before.

I literally blocked my brother. His emotional woe-is-me-isms and love letters to his wife and crying over a dead goat and religious undertones were getting to be insufferable. I share a few things here and there on TD, where only a few really know me, but that's it. People who post all their personal business bugs the crap out of me.
Yet, you just posted that here for us to all read.
I don’t know why people care if other people post things. Don’t read it. Some people like to process out loud and like the interaction. Who cares?

Well, there is a reason.. Michael Mann
Wait, that was Michael Mann too????
I had no idea and didn’t even think to look it up. Saw the Miami Vice thread and it caused me to remember Crime Story and it just felt the same.
Now I know why. lol. Should have looked up the director/creator.
That was an amazing show. My Dad watched it. I was real young but remember how good it was. Is it streaming anywhere?
I remember going to SEC games in Tuscaloosa and Starkville in the 90s and there was little tail gating at all. There was more in Baton Rouge. People parked, went to the game, went home.

Crime Story, 1986-1988 (Miami Vice spinoff thread)
Posted by AlaTiger on 11/5/25 at 12:04 am
Anyone remember this show? Dennis Farina. The Miami Vice thread got me thinking about it. It has that song “Runaway” in it and it seemed to have a similar vibe to Miami Vice with the cinematography. I’m remembering it as a kid, but I thought it was so good.
Here’s the opening of the pilot. I can’t believe this was a network TV show.

Hey, we got the GOAT team in college football out of it. Maybe that’s the formula? Lol
How to get LSU fans to stay a whole game and restore Tiger Stadium to Death Valley?
Posted by AlaTiger on 11/2/25 at 11:36 pm
Besides just winning, of course. But, even if we’re winning, the stadium empties out in the 3rd quarter of SEC games all the time unless it’s Alabama.
How do we Tiger Stadium back?

Amazing that they think this is 1986 and coaches have to come on campus for interviews during the season or there are flights to coaches in person.
Y’all do know what time this is, right? Anyone ever use Zoom here? Not a chance Lane Kiffin is flying to Baton Rouge on Monday during the season of his top 10 Ole Miss Rebels vying for a playoff spot.
Insane.
