    On the other hand, every game was the mindset "we need the ball last because our defense literally cannot stop anyone".

    I mean, I grew up watching Booger McFarland and Glenn Dorsey. When I was a teenager LSU had Patrick Peterson and Tyrann Matthew.

    Now watching LSU play is like watching the Texas Tech vs. Oklahoma circa 2016.

    I'm fine with a managerial style quarterback like Matty Mauck or Jared Lee that has no shot of winning the heisman. But I am not fine with a defense that is so bad that it looks like it belongs in a FCS team.

    When I was growing up, football, and most other sports, were too far away to think about.

    Re: Post Race!

    So I was born in August of 1991. My first ever LSU game was September 21, 1991 against Vanderbilt, aka the first home game of the season. My Maw Maw Toni snuck me in her purse back before they checked bags.

    My parents have held season tickets since 1982 so growing up I was always at LSU games.

    Re: Post Race!

    So I remembered growing up that Mike the tiger would go in his mobile cage out on the field before games, but something that I forgot was that at the start of every game they'd provoke him into roaring.

    PETA kind of put a stop to all of that though.

    Still haven't been unceremoniously kicked to the curb!

    Might have to work on my communication skills though:

    Ok, laugh now, cry later. I'm not anywhere near 90. And some men think I am very pretty. Maybe not everyone's cup of tea. Why do guys think anyone they can't see is a dog. Ugh.

    Is that related to anything? It's a good Post Race post, but what is it in reference to?

    That's the thing about the Post Race: There are many threads intertwining, some of them even make sense.

    Well, not that one.

    It was purely randomness because it was getting too quiet in here and I don't follow "Mike the Knife" or whoever that was.

    So imagine. Somehow I got myself put into the virtual doghouse. Moi?

    But I peeked in about midnight and there she was virtually pacing, wanting me back.

    And all because she thought I was going to get her "outed" to the forum members. I'm not sure how I feel about her not wanting to be virtually seen with me.

    I'm pretty sure now though that she's probably not a couple of nerds in the basement having a laugh. Well 75% sure.


    Oh yeah, just to be clear, I'm talking about an old folks forum. Not here.

    Y'all can be like secret boyfriend/girlfriend where you spend time with her while doing her homework. But nobody can no about it.

    I might be speaking from experience. Middle school was a tough few years for me.

    Somehow I'm getting the impression that with age some of them revert. She has been pretty "middle school" about everything. I'd be the one laughing if she didn't seem so sincere.

    My guess is she's an old window who wants to move on, but fears the dating world so she needs a safe practice stooge.

    I think the "nerds in a basement" odds have stayed steady, but the questions and lack of answers in return sounds more like a sweatshop in Nigeria.
