YOU TOO CAN HAVE A SPENCER HALL ATTITUDE
We review our email over at the Sporting News and discover that having a Spencer Hall attitude is not a good thing, especially when you tangle with the media monster that is Shreveport, Louisiana. We beg to differ, especially since we’re not voting for Hillary, but supporting our usual candidate for every public office: Big Red.

Back in the day I sent my father your critique of Ole Miss women (both parents are Rebels). It figuratively cut his nuts and caused him strife with it’s painful accuracy. I simply misjudged it as hilarious.
The recent Jacksonville post was a very fine dissection of my live-close-enough-to-it-to-kinda-call-it-my-adopted-hometown. Great schtuff.
You’ll either succeed with your best work or fail, but keep on doin’ what you’re doin’. You can always teach the Improv Comedy Traffic Schools back in GainesVegas.
I shook your hand. I got your back.

Spencer?! Who the fuck is Spencer? Unless you hang out with large black men named after predatory birds, you got some explainin’ to do, goddammit.

One thing: we Cyclones came from a shithole called Ames, IA, to watch 2 bowl games in Shreveport, and everyone I talked to called that a shithole (even relative to Ames). That can’t good for Shreveport.
Funniest article yet for the SN.

I would dearly love to see the Dores in a bowl - any bowl at all, barring the Music City Bowl, because unless you are SC or LA it *sucks* to go to a bowl in the same city as you.
However, I am also pleased to sit at home in front of the plasma and cheer for all the fine conference peers keeping our athletic department Department of Student Recreation afloat. Git money!

Albino Tornado @ 41: I’ve been panhandled at gas stations in LA, Atlanta, and Providence RI - but only the guy in Atlanta still had on his hospital wrist tag and extensive dressings to various wounds.
As for the “take your empties” service at the Coliseum, there’s no need to mock the environmental equivalent of throwing a bone to the peons. Just because they didn’t take away Callahan when they had the chance, there’s no need to be bitter. If you all had stamped a deposit $100 on his forehead and turned him loose on MLK, you could have saved yourselves a year of misery.

Dude. No kidding. Who knew Shreveport people were so sensitive? Get those people some acoustic guitars and sign them up on Bright Eyes label while puppy-love-sensitive hasn’t been considered gay yet…Buncha fledling Damien Rice’s out there…

Let the debate begin at once: Georgia girls or ASU girls?

SKLM –
TJ Simers being YOUR douchebag doesn’t make him any less of a douchebag.
I’ve been to Shrevetucky. A bowl endorsed by the game’s web site managed to lose it’s lofty Econo Lodge accreditation and had to become simply “The Lodge.” Liquor stores carried only malt liquor. I got panhandled at a gas station.
It’s not the “take your empties” service one gets from the local homeless at the Los Angeles Memorial Mausoleum, that’s for sure.
