    Does anyone go to the movies anymore?

    I go to the movies 2-3 times a year, and usually its kids movies for my daughter. I have found the Nickelodeon in downtown Columbia is less expensive than the other theatres in town and I like the idea of supporting a local small business instead of an out of town corporation like AMC.

    Does anyone give a hoot about the World Cup? I won't give a nickle to see any of those games. I know a man in Pa that paid

    The obvious fake injuries turn me off from really wanting to get into watching it.

    Baseball Roster

    I would expect that any incoming coach may bring some players from his former program too. Honestly the way the team played last year, I dont think its a bad thing to turn the roster over.

    Kevin Schnall

    I dont know if that makes much sense if our season and his team's seasons are already over. Im seeing a lot of stuff on twitter about it being Schnall after all and that an announcement will be later today so if thats the choice, its time to throw support behind the new staff and hope for the best.

    Kevin Schnall

    Sounds a lot like when Ray Tanner hired Chad Holbrook. Not saying its the wrong move, but it sure does seem like we've seen this show before. I think there is something to be said for if we really consider ourselves as a blue blood program, do we really want to hand the keys to someone who...

    Kevin Schnall

    Something I noticed that all of our "top" targets (Schnall @ Coastal, Ramsey @ GT, Sabins @ WVU) are all assistants that recently took over for coaches who retired and may be riding the coattails of success that their former bosses may be more responsible for. The only one of the guys Ive seen...

    Horrible feeling.

    His program is built around bringing in juco players. I dont know if that would be his plan here, but I dont think thats a long term solution for the SEC. We need someone who can bring in top level high school talent that will be here for 3-4 years and use juco to fill in any gaps.

    I think its more important to get the right coach than to settle for someone else just to get a jump on portal recruiting for one class.

    Schnall reminds me of Holbrook getting promoted when Tanner took over as AD. If we end up bring him over, hopefully he has a different result.

    Now that this season is over, Beamer is now on the clock

    in the last 10 or so years, we arent anyones rivals in any of the mens sports.

    Now that this season is over, Beamer is now on the clock

    UF is starting over with a new coach and new starters on offense and defense. They didnt land their #1 head coach target so they settled. No telling if it ends up working out for them or not. Bama is yet another year removed from Saban and the new coach is still turning over the roster for...

    Now that this season is over, Beamer is now on the clock

    I think he needs to win at least 8 and be in contention for the playoffs going into the 2nd half of the season to be secure for another year or two. Looking at the schedule I think there are 5 should be wins (Kent State, Towson, MSU, UK, Ark), 5 toss ups (Bama, UF, UT, Okla, Clemson), and 2...

    Baseball Cleaned House

    On one hand, its sad to think about these guys who just lost their jobs and their families with the new found uncertainty about what's next and the likelihood of having to move for a new job... on the other hand these guys were steering the ship of the worst 2 year stretch in Gamecock baseball...

    New RB Commit

    Cant remember the last time we had a 4 star RB commit out of high school. The last two running back coaches were total dipshits.

    OT: SC Supreme Court overturns Murdaugh guilty verdict

    It really doesnt matter. He essentially in prison for the rest of his life for the financial crimes he plead guilty to. Hes 57 right now and has ~40 years left and even if he only serves 85% of that, he would be in his 90s before he could potentially be released which given his physical shape...
