    Dudy Noble has finally been updated on google maps.. Let's have some MS Paint drawings of how you'd add seating.

    I like this one, keeping the berm by the visitors' bull pen and building decked GA seating behind the RF lounge area. Also extend third base side upper/lower over that berm. The next lofts are projected to go toward the third base line side of the current lofts.

    That beatdown should shut Mississippi Southern up…

    They talk litter, not trash. Like a used-up Zyn spit onto the ground. Not much to see.

    OT: Question caused by a show my wife and I watched

    I am 54 and still use one when camping. Blue enamel. Load it up, edge it up into the coals and wait. My grandparents had an electric one they used every day of my childhood.

    Starkville restaurant recs

    Cater's Market and Deli - this is a good one if you're just looking for a sandwich and baked treat - very handy (in the same shopping center as George Sherman, lots of parking, order and pay at counter and they bring it to you) they also make party platters, have a freezer full of take-away...

    Tent in Left Field

    I looked at it in person Friday night. I would say he's using it as a superstructure to hold up some strings of lights, possibly for combo of festive looks and for just being able to see around in the box. I don't think it's really in anyone's line of sight per se, as far as having to watch the...

    Mississippi Gulf Coast restaurant recommendations

    Big time second on Bozo's. Even if you're just running by at lunch or for take-out, or eating there. Best gumbo I've ever had. By a lot.

    I think there must be some Ole Miss grads.....

    That's very unfortunate to hear. My guess is she's being influenced by the SEC Football Weekends and other Ole Miss et al experiences and not the quality of the engineering programs because, there, there's utterly no comparison. MSU's IDEELab alone and the incorporation of co-op and work...

    RIP, Robert Duvall…

    I saw a listing today of his consensus top 5 roles and Gus McCrae of Lonesome Dove was not among them - just a demonstration of what an amazing and broadly-talented actor he was. No complaint from me - just amazement at what all he did do so well.

    What a nightmare

    On the matter of the scooters: It's just a matter of time until there are some life-altering or life-ending wrecks on those. I've never seen anyone on one in a helmet, but they're going plenty fast enough to crack open a head. I've seen some minor bo-bos and heard about others, but I'm amazed...

    RIP to SixPack legend Brutius

    Russ was one of a kind. I was around him through you and a couple others who were a couple years ahead of me at State and I came to enjoy him. Like Marshawn says, bitter is definitely an acquired taste, but Russ was a great one to acquire. God bless his family.

    Dontae Jones in flight at NEMCC

    I went to a game at Northeast to see him play. My dad and I were up in the bleachers, higher than 10 feet off the floor. On one two-handed dunk, Jones got so high his arms and shoulders were plumb level with the rim. That absolutely happened. I saw it with my own eyes.

    OT: Name a Movie or Series better than the Book.

    Taken all together, they're a tremendous story. Lonesome Dove is a screenplay turned into a novel then made into a very well-cast and directed miniseries. Streets of Laredo was written after the author had suffered a major heart situation which deeply impacted his psychological being, and the...

    OT: Name a Movie or Series better than the Book.

    OT: Name a Movie or Series better than the Book.

    Move vs Book comparison on King's longer novels is often not oranges-to-oranges because, with the long ones, he writes extra long on purpose, intentionally wallowing in the joy of a very long telling of a complex and varied story. Michael Crichton wrote books that were ready-made to become...

    OT: Name a Movie or Series better than the Book.

    Lonesome Dove is especially interesting in this discussion because it was first written as a screenplay. McMurtry wrote it with John Wayne and contemporaries in mind, and it just didn't get produced. When he turned it into a novel, he created what I think of as possibly THE great American novel...
