    Once again Special Teams. Mullen this is your problem, fix it!

    The problem was jumping in the air to catch a punt inside the 5 when the ball would have landed in the 17ing end zone for a touchback. WT17?

    OT: carrying guns

    I never understood the "safety gets in the way" argument." In the time it takes to level your weapon, the safety can easily be thumbed off. At a minimum, you would think you could engage it when you are in a "low threat" environment (church!) and take if off, if you want, when in enemy...

    OT: JFK

    While it is true that many military weapons are designed to maim instead of kill (grenades, mines) the reason military small arms ammo is FMJ, is because explosive, poisonous, hollow-point or frangible bullets are forbidden by the Hague Convention, which all NATO nations observe.

    OT: JFK

    I visited that 6th floor window, and looked out to the spot they said the limo traveled through during the shooting. I absolutely thought I could make the shot with 3 tries on a target moving 5-10 mph (speed disputed). Also the 5.2 seconds is deceptive, because they act as if the timer started...

    I always thought there were more MSU fans than Ole Miss fans

    Absolutely agree with this. Lifelong Coast Rat, except for education and military stations, and OM on the coast would be a very distant 3rd to USM, MSU in that order. USM has fallen off significantly since Katrina, but still ahead of OM, maybe not MSU anymore. If you count sidewalk Bama and...

    Would you give up being in the SEC in football if we got...

    You know, it's really not a stupid question. I could see where joining a conference like the Big 10, could theoretically help out a school like MSU. We don't know exactly what will happen with the revenue share with the new SEC Network, but as of 2012, the SEC ranked 4th in ave revenue per...

    OT: Anyone going to get an Only Coin?

    So cool I looked it up on a techie site and they are worried about increased risk of credit card theft. http://www.extremetech.com/electronics/171102-coin-is-an-insecure-meta-card-that-morphs-into-all-your-credit-cards-at-the-push-of-a-button After reading this, I worry that a waiter could...

    Caption this

    1) “So, after they roll the really big wooden elephant into the stadium, our ROTC guys, who have been inside the whole time…”<o:p></o:p>2) “C’mon who else believes we can win this football game? Anyone?... Deshea?” 3) "By show of hands--who else is not wearing pants...?"

    Hearing not good news on Dak for this weekend...

    CBS Sports is reporting it as an "elbow' injury, and there's no word on a shoulder problem. http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/eye-on-college-football/24223776/mississippi-state-qb-dak-prescott-elbow-questionable-for-alabama That sounds like pretty good news, and I'd speculate he'd be...

    PS4 or Xbox One?

    Anyone play COD Ghosts yet? The trailers look crazy, but I suspect that detail is on cut scenes, not gameplay.

    If you were AD and we end at 5-7 - would Mullen get another year?**

    "Play close" and "not get blown out" in the Egg Bowl?? Are y'all that pessimistic? In Oxford, maybe but in Starkville that game is a toss up at worst. Unless Bama utterly destroys us, and we quit and lose ugly to Arky, the OM game is totally in play. I think the far more likely scenario is...

    The Dak Pass

    If it takes a weird bounce, isn't it a "live" ball (fumble)?

    Why do people keep calling our football team "young"

    Phil Steele said in 2010 OM had "a GREAT shot at an unbeaten season" based on close losses and returning starters. http://philsteele.com/Blogs/June09/DBJune8.html They finished 5-7, and lost their opener to Jacksonville State.
