Prob go to USC


USC - Oregon would be my bet too because of all the SEC games weeks 1-3. You also have Texas at Tennessee and Oklahoma at Georgia that day if they kept it in the SEC.

Pretty certain though they'll be back for either the Bama or Texas games here.
I'm around LSU athletics a lot. Dr. Rousse is very present and social. Goes around talking to a lot of people (fans especially) and thanks everyone for being there. He and his wife are super engaging and approachable.

Obviously he doesn't have to do that but it definitely fires you up as an alum when the university president makes that much effort to connect.

My man :lol:

If I never hear "Shiny Happy People" ever again in my life, it'll be too soon. This right here is what a Michael Stipe and Kate Pierson duet should be.

In college, damn near everybody seemed to own a copy of "Eponymous". REM had never been my thing in high school but I began to develop an appreciation for them around 18-20. And then I got so damn sick of hearing them all the time :lol:

"Rockville" is still a great song. I know "Out of Time" and "Monster" tend to get shite on by old school REM fans a lot, but "Me in Honey" and "Crush with Eyeliner" stay in my Spotify playlist.
My favorite Ciaran Hinds/Liam Neeson/Excalibur story :lol:

Plantation Oaks or some shite like that


Was it Plantation Trace aka Plantation Trash on Highland?

Seemed like everybody at LSU lived there at one point or another in the 80s-90s.

In the running for best foreign rock song of all time.

Her uncle Hugo ain't no slouch either. I don't think I've ever seen him play a bad role. Dude always seems to knock it out of the park.
BMac used to be famous so that counts.

Did we ever confirm SVP was posting here?
I'd probably give the nod to '94, although there are only a handful of songs on either list that I can still listen to. Either they've been overplayed in the years since or they were just of the time and didn't age well...many of them IMO are best left in the past.

And seeing Black Francis on the '94 list makes me gag. frick that dude. I hold him responsible for Pixies never getting to the pinnacle like they should have after Surfer Rosa and Doolittle. Kim Deal showed everybody what was up with The Breeders.
We better be getting Michael Rooker back as Rowdy Burns even if he had to retire from racing.

You guys do know she is married to a woman...right?


Wtf? Sophie Cunningham is not married to a woman. She's also made it known unequivocally that she's not gay and is interested only in men.

Where do y'all get some of this shite from? :lol:

Just spent a week there in May. No problems whatsoever. Walked downtown, chinatown, all the popular areas. Only saw a few homeless people, but they were too messed up to even be an issue. Didn't feel unsafe at all. But I was only there for a week.


Heading over there this week. Haven't been in a few years. I've always been around lower Nob Hill and Russian Hill areas and never had the first problem.

Stay away from certain areas - Tenderloin, for example - and it should be fine. Lots of great, small neighborhood communities in the city but it is expensive as hell to live there.
I played 2B and SS in college. I wouldn't be caught dead without a cup. No way in hell was I rolling without some protection for the nads.

Baseballs have this innate ability to find the nutsack.
