    I think the Hail State five questions article raises some excellent points.

    I do now see the possibility that we could really make some big plays in our passing game. If Mullen says that Tyler can play, I'm inclined to believe him. Not sure Banks will be the "Poster Boy". He should have a big year, but lots of time a different guy will be the one who steps up. We'll...

    Buy or Sell Andy Murray has more pressure on him than Lebron

    Murray is there for GBR, but they're gonna love him no matter the outcome.

    Officially unofficial Thanksgiving poll

    Basically just don't usually feel like devoting the day to football on Thanksgiving and don't feel that the publicity is all that valuable. I don't feel that strongly about it though. This is different from my objection to non-holiday Thursday games, which is based on my objection to the...

    Should Penn State get the death penalty?

    But I'm not sure the lesson has been learned by the rest of us. Institutions must never cover this stuff up, and they ought to not even cover up like they do minor sexual harrassment of any kind. The fear of these incidents being exposed within colleges, govt. offices, and all over our society...

    Tiger moves to the top. Several grouped together in 2nd*

    He fell so far and so hard; seeing him claw his way back to the top is something that reminds me of the power of competition. And great golf today. Not a lot of highlights, but an intense tournament and a lot of good golf shots. Actually, the 9 iron against the tree was a highlight, even...

    This could be a favorite topic we haven't done - Favorite Professor at State?...

    Also Dan Embree, Susan Snell, and Pat Creevy (author of "Tyrus," a fine novel about Ty Cobb). I like Dr. Bryant in Sociology. She was married to ME prof Glen Bryant, a totally great guy, but I don't remember her first name. Art Appreciation with Ken Clifford, associated with one of the...

    Anyone ever been to Scrapin the Coast in Biloxi.

    I actually don't want anyone around it because it is stupid and vulgar. Not sure that it hurts kids any more than it hurts everybody. It just makes the world ugly, and that's wrong. My problem is the way this coast embraces some events and totally harrrasses others, while at the same time the...

    Anyone ever been to Scrapin the Coast in Biloxi.

    You''re down to have a good time, and the fact that others are having a good time dressed in a way different than you bothers you to the point that your good time is ruined. I say you're looking at it wrong. Le Bakery is an awesome choice for breakfast or lunch. Grab a few loaves of French...

    Anyone ever been to Scrapin the Coast in Biloxi.

    It's not my scene either, but the thing that's really holding back the coast is the harsh judgement of other cultures that is so popularly practiced here. My problem is that you let others' good time get to you. Even if it delays or inconveniences you, what the hell is the problem?

    Update: Street painting has begun

    If it's MSU related, then it's just like everything and anything else in the patch. Ho hum. The uniqueness makes it special and shows others and ourselves that we have more than one fantastic dimension. I am impressed by the way my Starkville now sparkles. What a cost-effective PR move, and one...

    Did Simpson alter his lie on 17?

    Just wondering what anybody saw. I never saw a closeup of the ball after all the checking had taken place.

    What. The. 17. Starkville Board of Aldermen?

    It says that we are growing and progressing and being that awesome place that we are. No design is perfect, and set ten side by side and 50 people will have ten opinions. But it's friggin awesome that my hometown is doing anything but going downhill! And this design is great and the disdainful...

    Glad the SEC was down this year...

    We did have a down game against Samford on Thursday, but whether that is caused by the SECT is far from certain. In the immortal words of RP, "That's baseball." It is a shame that we didn't have a way to rest Slaughter. That is a lot of squatting for one man. I personally like the new SECT...
