As great as Gandolfini was as Tony Soprano, Chiklis' Vic Mackey was oh so close to that.


I literally told a guy at work this recently . He has never seen it. I said have you watched sopranos? He said yea. I said did you like it and root for Tony? He said yea. I said well Vic Mackey is basically a cop version of Tony soprano.

Also, it just got put on prime last month and I did a rewatch. First time I seen it probably since it went off air.


It is awesome and I feel it gets better and better each season, That last episode was still emotional even though I knew what was coming. Freaking great show.

What I didn’t expect was the hammer marks on the prop blades when done. I don’t know what I was expecting, but the stainless steel prop blades were not nearly as polished when done.


The prop should look brand new when finished. Not sure why yours had hammer marks on it and wasn't as polished.

I changed mine two years ago. Got a new 4 stroke and it was turning 6150 max rpm (5200-6000 range on motor). It was also about 4200 rpm to go 30 mph.

I wanted to lower cruising rpm so I wanted to go from 19 to 21 inch pitch to drop it about 400 rpm. Prop guy told me to just do 1 inch of pitch to 20, and to add “cupping” to the blades. It would give me what I want cruising and only drop max rpm 200.

Now it turns 5950 rpm max and I cruise at 3600 rpm to do 30.

Extremely happy. Boat is just like I want now. Do it, it is worth it to get it running the way you want.
I can confirm. Arrived at Nola airport this morning at 7:30 for 11:30 flight because of lines……… literally took about 5 minutes to get thru tsa line. Been just killing time waiting for flight since then.

Last game of the year Brent. Can’t hold anything back now!!!!
Could a bobcat with rotary cutter fit thru fence? Not sure where you are located, but my local hardware store rents equipment and they rent one of those for 150 a day. They are bad arse.

Why wasn't he hired, because everyone knows that Kiffin is the offensive genius and not Weis! It's like being the DC under Saban.


Yea Kirby Smart was such trash. Wonder what ever happened to him.

That's pretty incredible. It's hard to believe McClendon only had 2 seasons with less than 3 losses: 1962 - 1 loss 1964 - 2 losses 1969 - 1 loss 1972 - 2 losses That's four such seasons.


He said last 60 years. I don’t know why he stopped at 60 but that would leave out the 62 and 64 seasons.
01 team beats every team not named Miami in a 12 team playoff that year.

And maybe Florida. Spurrier seemed to have Sabans number.

Regardless I loved that 01 team. Gave me my first taste of LSU winning some type of championship. And it was awesome.

they have gone overboard with the piped in music, making the band damn near obsolete.


This was my first game since 2012 bama. It was pretty packed. Crowd was pretty good, especially on a couple big 3rd and 4th down plays. Not saying it was top 5 atmosphere but it was good.

But I was rather shocked with the piped in music. I don’t mind sometimes, but the DJ literally looked like he was playing over the band a lot of times. Is the DJ and band that disjointed on when and who should play?

I legit want to watch this. Best movie idea i have heard in awhile. You should be writing in Hollywood lol
Yea I literally watched this for first time about a month ago or so.

I don’t usually watch old movies but I did enjoy this one. It was pretty good. Definitely worth at least one watch.

And I went into quite the rabbit hole after reading about Bergman. She is such a gorgeous woman.

Not as good as the first season

Wayyyyyyy better than the second season.

Yea there may be some issues but overall i was satisfied with this season.

Hopefully next year they don't do a delayed release. Just drop all of the episodes at one time.
It looks like the first scene with his bust is for 5 time tour champions, so he keeps playing at a high level after the events of first movie.

But now he needs to get back into playing shape. I wonder what the plot twist will be for him to have stopped playing.
Lucky tiger, these memes are awesome.

Keep up the good work lol

Suggestion: do jeb bush as fredo telling him he can’t talk like that lol

Sopranos family fued

They also did this one which was real funny too.

I just finished a rewatch last week so these are especially funny right now lol
I think what he and Kevin peoples have done for this line is coach of the year worthy type stuff. They are worth their weight in gold. I hope we can hold on to both for quite a few years cause I see some real nasty lines in our future when the talent gets back to LSU standards.
