I think Casting for the whole show was spot on and great! Franco was "ok", but all of the other characters were really really good for that time period etc.
When reading the book and imagining the movie cast, James Franco would not have been in my top 50. He was not that great. I was thinking more like a Jude Law/Gordon-Levitt/Edward Norton type.
For the female lead, It was always Gwyneth Paltrow, who I don't particularly like but hers is the face that I saw while reading the book.
The movie could have been 4 out of 5 stars based on the material. Instead just 2.5 for me.

Never before and never again. Each album equal to most bands' Greatest Hits issues, and after the breakup, songs from their solo releases could have made five more albums as good as any of their Beatles releases. And at the time, singles were preferable to album songs, so dozens of their most popular singles weren't on albums now considered classics.
What they did is really not possible, but here we are.

Welp that should lock up mvp for Stafford
And punch his ticket to the Hall of Fame. He had the ring but not First Team All Pro. Brees has one of each and in 2-3 years Stafford's career stats will look similar.
Stafford was a "probable" HOFamer going into this season but this (and a likely but not certain MVP) erases the argument. He gets in..and deserves it.

Even if his democrat voters understood what this really means (most don't) they survive on collectivism paid for by people who provide a societal value. Anyone with the means and opportunity to leave will have to consider it if they haven't already. He's openly saying if you work and try to better yourself, don't bother because he's taking it and giving it to those who don't. F this guy.

One could argue Hershel Walker deserved three Heismans. For a career, it could also be Tebow.
For a season, probably Barry and Burrow would make a very short list.

The 2011 loss to Alabama is the most disappointing loss in LSU history simply because of the stakes involved, who the opponent/coach was, and because we could finally have something to hang over their heads after decades of getting dominated.
As for regular season games, 1979 USC was a religious experience that only lacked a victory. That LSU fans still call a loss one of the greatest games in our history speaks volumes.
Even though there were no trophies or titles at stake, it's a "you had to be there" to appreciate its magnitude. It would top 1997 Florida as LSU's greatest home upset IMO.
And that was a BS facemask call on Benji! McClendon knew it. Benji knew it, and USC knew it!!!!!

Sela,
I got bifocals in my early 40s and readers around 50 (you can get a pack of 3 for less than $20 at CVS/WMart/etc) but they come in different focuses so make sure you get the right one. Keep one at your workspace and one in the car for starters).
Bifocals aren't bad. A simple eye exam will get you the right prescription which you can take to Target for a good price for lenses and frames.
Good luck!

re: Why do 80’s channels and compilations focus on the early 1980’s?
Posted by ATCTx on 12/16/25 at 12:13 pm to weagle1999
This is pretty easy. The top artists/bands of the 70s (Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Aerosmith, Boston, Journey, Foreigner, Styx, Prince, Heart, Michael Jackson, Bowie, the Stones, McCartney/Harrison, Queen, the Police, Duran Duran, etc etc etc) peaked or dropped off from 1980 - 1986. With a few exceptions, they were pretty much done making their best albums.
At the end of the 80s, Guns and Roses, Janet Jackson, and Madonna kept things going along with Hair Bands, but there is no comparison with the first half of the 80s. Not even close.
I was a student/young adult during the 80s and have no bias either way.

Honestly, four years of days like that would be awesome!
Being on that campus as an LSU football player is probably better than I can imagine. We didn't see the hard work, but I could get used to that routine.
Good job CJ and best of luck next season!

re: Is Kiffin doing any kind of interview on gameday?
Posted by ATCTx on 12/6/25 at 9:52 am to JimTiger72
I think his 'presence" was more felt by his NOT being there. They were all talking about him and LSU rather than just being focused on the same things he's said all week and taking shots at him.
The message is "he is busy recruiting players, coaches and assembling a staff. He doesn't have time to fly to Atlanta just so a few people can hammer him for going to LSU".
I like this message.

The problem with Penn State (fans) is they think they are equal to Ohio State. Maybe in the 70s and 80s but that ship sailed.
They fired Franklin and their plan seemed to be "We are Penn State, we'll get our top choice". After getting far down their list, they were VERY LUCKY to get Campbell.
Maybe it works out, or maybe it looks like a gigantic mismanaged coaching mess.

Well, I've never hit the refresh button every five minutes for a solid week before so I'd say a pretty obvious yes by a mile.
re: Maybe Lane wanted Starting Portal QB for Huge $$ it would take to Nab Duckworth
Posted by ATCTx on 12/4/25 at 10:32 am to TigerSaurus
In Coach Kiffin's initial presser he said he could not wait to get on the phone when the portal opens because of the interest he had around the country for transferring to Ole Miss, implying it would be even higher at LSU.
He has his targets he's confident he can sign. He determined Duckworth would be a nice pickup but not worth it considering who he thinks he can get.
He will get two QBs in the portal. Duckworth is probably factoring in this too. He can start at SC, He'll have to compete at LSU.

re: ESPN projection has LSU vs Nebraska in the music city. We have never beaten them.
Posted by ATCTx on 12/1/25 at 10:46 pm to GrizzlyWintergreen
Pretty sure three of those losses were bowl games in the 80s when Nebraska was the real deal and their cornfed behemoth linemen pushed us around.
Hypothetically and I mean really hypothetically because I'm genuinely curious.
If Georgia rolls Alabama and Ala misses the playoffs a second year, Debour and Alabama agree to mutually part ways and he goes to PSU, who does Alabama go after?
I'm confident Lane wouldn't if offered.
Dabo probably three years ago but not now.
Lanning - he'd be interested but I don't see it
Heupel - may be the best one left
Sark - total lateral move
Who then?

That Lane picked LSU over Florida is telling. Florida is a very good program, some would say equal to LSU.
The only three programs I think could have beaten out LSU for Lane are Texas, Alabama and Georgia, although you could argue GA is a lateral move.
Lane has never coached up north so Ohio State, Michigan and PSU are probably out. I don't see ND hiring him.
The only other school that might intrigue Lane is Miami. THAT would be very interesting.
I"m glad he's here. It's about to be fun around here again.
