    10 post-Spring Game predictions

    Like others, the only thing I disagree about is Quay. I watched him exclusively on Saturday. He's impressive at times, and others he just kind of hovers. He plays with his head down which isn't right. But, he's not going to get pushed back. If Gabe Jackson is getting put on skates by Quay, then...

    Boom baby. Tigers back and he's takin Augusta in 2 weeks*

    This is the one thing people keep trying to drill in to to fans heads about Tiger and "these young guys". If you think Rory's ******* isn't going to squelch up on Sunday at Augusta playing with Tiger, then you haven't heard Rory talk about Tiger. All these "kids" grew up idolizing the guy. None...

    Current state of the NBA. What are your thoughts?

    He can make a 3 whenever he wants to, got a mid range, and can get to the rim. He's incredible offensively. I still think he is behind Lebron as far as post up game, transition, and defensively. I know DHoward will probably get DefPOY every year until he retires, and rightfully so, but LBJ has...

    Current state of the NBA. What are your thoughts?

    but I love the NBA. I'm a huge Lebron James fan, and have been ever since he was in high school. I remember watching him play the first(I think) ESPN televised high school game, and from then I was hooked on watching the guy. Bill Simmons wrote an article not too long ago on Grantland(not a...

    Whatever happened the LT's "Cigar Boys"?

    Not gonna go down the list of every one of them that I know. I'm speaking about their view as a majority. I know many of them that are very very much inside his circle. Yes, they are good people and humble people. I'm not trying to say this group is "bad people". They're absolutely not. But what...

    Whatever happened the LT's "Cigar Boys"?

    I'm not saying they don't want to win as much as everyone else does. They do. You're exactly right. They like to be able to stick their chests out like everyone else. But, the difference is, they have much larger egos when it comes to their "place" within the program. People that become that...

    Whatever happened the LT's "Cigar Boys"?

    I'm not a socialist or any of that ****, and don't want to turn this in to a political debate, but isn't giving the wealthy preferential treatment sort of a big reason why our economy and country is in the ******* at the moment. Whenever decisions that are made on high are influenced more...

    Whatever happened the LT's "Cigar Boys"?

    It's not that they necessarily want to lose. It's just that they enjoy their spot within the program. They will accept the mediocrity in place just so that they get what they want which is access and tickets and a better priority and so on. It's an entitlement that they have. They give more...

    Whatever happened the LT's "Cigar Boys"?

    Do I do the right thing? Do I do what is in the best interest of my "company"? Or do I appease the 1%'ers? The big money guys, that for the most part, don't want to lose their "access" and "status" inside the program or still think that this is the best we can ever expect at Mississippi State...

    Help a Bear out please

    So, they've been doing pretty well in Starkville for what? 20 years. The line is always out the door on game days and big Saturdays in Starkville, and they've been doing that well for that long all on the backs of having Herbstreit and the Gangs pictures on the wall? Well, hell, I'm starting a...

    Help a Bear out please

    I can get down with Grumpy's. I used to go there all the time when it first opened up. They have some cool stuff on the menu, but I had a few repeated incidents where the service sucked as was really slow-lost orders, etc. and quit going there. The Alamo at Grumpys is the best thing there and...

    Help a Bear out please

    Only one mention of Lil' Dooey and its negative? I know its "uncool" to like Dooeys on this board, but I've always thought that was lame. I've been going to Starkville my whole life, and nothing in that town BBQ wise comes close to Dooeys. The best sauce I've ever had. Great waflle fries. Best...

    Let's reflect on yesterday for one more second.

    Can we cut through your conquest to be the "one true Rebel voice of reason and morality" and get to the question as to who really gives a flying 17 what "the nation" thinks about the state of MS. Why is that always the backdrop when racial discussions or image discussions come about? I don't...
