LSU Tigers (official thread)

you act like we was given a choice on the [Mark May] used for the sand which.

we were given 4 day old cow [Mark May], the kind that's dried and crusty on the outside, but still mushy and green on the inside.
they slapped it on stale french bread with no condiments, then thrown at us by the greased up deaf guy we had for a waiter.
Meh, shouldn't be a big deal. Sounds like a lot of Cajun food if you ask me.

ok.
so 2 years ago a local baton rouge radio sports show (pretty popular show lots of listeners in the area) started having a weekly regular guest on their show. a Louisiana guy that was an unemployed football coach looking for work. Coach O. he's got a reputation as a pretty good DL coach and a great recruiter.

coach O becomes a popular guest and before long the hosts start pimping the coach to be on the staff at LSU. He's a larger than life character and his resume as a position coach is pretty good.

coach gets an offer to be the DLine coach at LSU. toward the tail end of his first season on staff, the Miles debacle happens. that local radio show all but begs to keep Miles and give him another chance.

fast forward to the next season. Miles seat is quite warm. same radio show that begged to keep him is now calling for his head. they even suggest O as the interim.

Miles gets shitcanned and O gets the interim gig. the first move O announces as the interim guy is to name one of those radio hosts as his "Special assistant to the head coach"

radio show now becomes non-stop ed orgeron campaign propaganda. talks about how great of a person he is, plays up the hometown guy angle ad nauseum, says he's completely changed from his Ole Miss days. Even after two losses that looked eerily Miles like to those in the stadium.

season ends, our AD is stupid, hires O.

tells media how much better O is now and he came into the interview with a binder and detailed plans for the future. How he would get the alumni involved, the great staff he would put together, etc. Alleva was "blown away" by the presentation of this changed man and the endorsement he got from Pete Carrol was a big help too.


however, had Alleva bother to do any research at all, he would see that this exact presentation was what landed him the Ole Piss gig.

Yes I did. Probably should have realized it when I placed my order, and the girl behind the counter said, "Ah Ga-rone-tee!"

the touristy type joints and big chain places typically don't have the best foods.
you got find the mom and pops tucked in to corners and they may not look all that appealing from the outside.

also, word of advice: do NOT get fried alligator unless you know it's from a good fresh source.
alligator is either really good or really not.
not much in between for some reason.

Alternate word of advice: be cautious about ordering deep fried "cooter". Which, not quite as interesting as it sounds - apparently there is such a thing as soft shell turtle.
