I had been kinda looking for the wife a new little SUV and one big enough to tailgate in yet not shitty on mileage. She has one so I started looking at everything not what she already had to be different. However Mama kept hinting she wanted another one like what she had. So this is not a diesel Denali Yukon etc story. ( like that poor bastard who had an idiot deliver his) but the sticker was about $58,000 for a little 3-row SUV - what she wanted. I casually mentioned it to a friend of mine who works in the car biz but not even as I’m looking, but more so bitching because I couldn’t find exactly what the Mrs. was wanting. This was Tuesday.

On Wednesday, I get a text from a lady who I know through her dealings with my friend, and she’s now the sales manager at a dealership near me. And she’s got a ‘26 model pretty much what my wife wanted. I forwarded said text to wife - this is not an uncommon occurrence for my wife and I to text each other from time to time. Wife replies to me with a big red heart. I then engage this lady with the understanding that I’m busy and not even remotely in the market for a car today. She replies back with numbers that would make that guy that posts his long car buying guide blush so I tapped in. This was Wednesday at noon, and I even told the lady that I was way too busy to deal with a car deal this week.

Thursday at noon she’s at my office. All the paperwork completed gassed up cleaned up and ready to deliver. I swapped keys, gave her my old title and she left. I might have clicked 4 things on my phone from her dealership and mama is driving what she wanted. No haggling on price they were $15,000 off sticker and gave me $3,000 more on my trade than it blue booked for. Nothing wrong with the car, it has every option you can put on one for that model and it’s brand arse new. Not going to posts pics of any of it because I don’t want to. Just saw that guy’s post about that idiot who couldn’t get a Yukon off a trailer - and I had the complete opposite experience from a localish reputable car dealer.

I tell yall what sucks is not our beautiful gold purple gold combo but that funky white helmet BS
2015 - lost to Ole Miss in em
2017 - lost to Troy in em
2022 - lost to Tennessee in em
2024 - lost to A&M in em
2025 - lost to Vanderbilt in em

That infuriates me more than some panty-waist kid from the 90’s pearl clutching the Halman years. That ship sailed. I was a Stovall / Arnsparger child. So I like the purple and gold. Sorry.

I do like the trad white jersey for the record. I just hate white helmets.

Sol’s dad was a dentist yes. Sol is an orthopedic surgeon.

Whenever we lost Saban and god Leslie McDipshit, who I have hated since his season opener BTW, I have longed for a coach who ridiculed his starters and put the next man up if they screwed up. I have longed for a Coach who didn’t just take knees and use the Victory formation. His reasoning was basically, hell no you schedule us get us. And for once ever since Saban left, I feel like an actual adult is in charge of this program. Adult might be too harsh, but at least we have a real frickin football coach! I’m loving it!

And all called on the 4th string offense.

You missed 1987: Cal State Fullerton saw: Tom Hodson Mickey Guidry Leonard Valentine Sol Graves — threw a TD to Slip Watkins

OP said in “his 32 years”. So no way OP saw that. I, on the other hand, was at the game. I remember when Sol (now Dr Graves) took the field and as a high school player from NELA he was on the Lanny James show every Friday night on ch 8. So I was proud to watch him play. (side note his Dad played for the Patriots).

They, whoever they are, are about to kill college football about like how they, whoever they are, killed NASCAR. The love of the almighty dollar ruins the fun of it.

Charlie Brown warned us in the 1960’s about the commercialization of Christmas yet here we are 60 years later with our aluminum trees and all.

I have to watch it but now after last weekend, I’m convinced the odds makers in Vegas (or whoever /wherever) is controlling this as much as they have a chokehold on the nfl.

Below Hallman and above Archer as one of the worst coaches in the history of LSU

That’s all I hear sorry

“Then there was the ever-present
Football player rapist
They were all in love with dyin'
They were doing it in Texas
…
They were all in love with dyin'
They were drinking from a fountain
That was pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain”

I agree. However we lost to that “gay shite” last year (not that there’s anything wrong with that - the gay shite). I fuggin hate the Ackies

Those weird little suckers are coming to Tiger Stadium for back-to-back appearances here. Obviously last year’s contest started the entire snowball that became the Kiffin era.
The Ole Miss loss is behind us.
Injuries are problematic
And this a&m team lost to Kentucky? Kentucky? Kentucky is the most forgotten SEC school not named Missouri, yet those basketball playing bluegrass bourbon sniffers managed to beat this cult from College Station.
That’s something brian kelly couldn’t seem to do.

3 Damn Days we get to have payback for last year, and forever payback for the 8OT game years ago (they need it every year).

Let’s maul those moody little bunch of milkmen and their hand movements. Just because of that they need to be beat - but this year? It’s literally LSU vs the World. They are in the way and smell like tiger bait to me.

I hate em! Geaux Tigers!
