Millsaps college is basically across the street from Belhaven. I once watched Widespread Panic on their campus. This is unbelievable.

A Day Off
Well, we had yesterday and today off, sort of a Fall Break. It's really Teacher's Convention in Milwaukee, but since we are not required to go, I find the time better spent at home resting and prepping for the next month or so.
Larry, I was looking up Ocracoke Island and it looks awesome. Have you been there before? I look forward to hearing about it.
It appears that Tubberville is getting killed for the chop block on Dorsey. This from Jason Whitlock on foxsports.com
2. Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville is an absolute coward and fraud for not suspending the freshman lineman who chop-blocked LSU's Glenn Dorsey in the back of the knees.
I've watched the highlight over and over and what transpired is completely unjustifiable. Tuberville claims all the linemen were supposed to cut block. You don't cut block a defensive linemen moving toward you on the back of his knees.
Not only was the block illegal, but it was as immoral as LSU coach Les Miles claimed. Plus, it's damaging to college football. Dorsey returned to LSU for his senior season. He could've turned pro after last season. Now every NFL agent is going to show every third-year defensive lineman the tape of the block that could've cost Dorsey millions of dollars.
The NCAA needs to step in here and suspend the freshman guard. No one is saying the kid is a bad kid. But the sport needs to send a strong message that those type plays will not be tolerated, even accidentally.
Also and interesting take here, complete with video.
Finally, my mom sent me this and I thought it was hysterical.
'Dear Lord: Thank you for bringing me to Timmy's house and not to Michael Vick's -- AMEN!

While I realize that Auburn/Ole Miss isn't a great national game, but there are so many games on gameplan I don't understand why they wouldn't pick up all sec match ups. We have a fall break today and tomorrow, which I am already enjoying.

Team Theearlybirdgetsthevictory
QB T Tebow
RB D McFadden
RB A Foster
WR K McKinley
WR P Harvin
WR R Smith
K A Tejada
DEF USC
Well, I'm off to 6th grade camp for two nights in the wilderness with fifty something 10 - 11 year olds. Actually, we stay in cabins, and the place is pretty nice. It's hardly roughing it. Then I'm going on a retreat with our church, so 2 more nights in a state park. That means I won't get to watch the LSU game live. I'll gladly take text updates because I probably won't have time to watch it in its entirety on Sunday.
I'm not sure what to think. Did Auburn intentionally revert back to the Auburn from the first three games?? Was the play calling that conservative, or was Arkansas really that good on D. Will LSU be ticked off, or will they still be reeling from getting smoked by some Wildcats. Will I ever think of Kentucky and not be reminded of the night we karaoked at the Best Western with some Wildcat faithful.

JLM - Week 6 Scores
Well, it's a good thing I don't make a living off picking college football games. I said Auburn would have trouble early with Vandy (how about 28-0 in the first half). I thought Georgia would go into Knoxville and win (again, 28-0 in the first half). I figured Kentucky would be able to put up big offensive numbers on USC (uh, no). And I was convinced Florida had what it would take to win in Death Valley (okay, so I was pretty close on that...if not for Les the Hat's big balls on 4th down). At least I can take solace in the fact that I am running away with JLM 2007!!!!!
That's right, in the lowest scoring week of JLM this season I have prevailed once again and I have to give all the credit in the world to my a-hole of a quarterback, Tim Tebow. Seriously, has there ever been a bigger punk that played QB in the SEC? This guy is a first rate douche rocket of the highest order. I hate his little arm flapping to the crowd after he scores. I hate his military haircut and flail-armed lefty passing style. But the big guy does put up some impressive JLM numbers. His 31 points were high score this week and they led me to an 83-73-67 victory.
Matt: 83
Tebow 31
D-Mac 18
Grant 1 (that's what I get for picking an bammer)
Rod Smith 8
Wallace 7
Burton 7
Byrum 5
Arky 6

Felix 26

JLM Week 6
Team TakeitOfftheRackIfItsWackPutitBack (song anyone?)
QB: Tim Tebow
RB: Darren McFadden
RB: Terry Grant
WR: Rod Smith
WR: Mike Wallace
WR: Keenan Burton
K: Wes "I could probably nail any chick in the 36830 zip code this week" Byrum
D: Arky
Predictions: Auburn comes out SLOW and Brandon tosses a bad first quarter pick. After letting Vandy get the early lead the Tigers begin to play like they are on the road (they will actually be wearing the road whites and some old school throwback helmets without the AU logo to commemorate the 1957 national championship team) and go up by 10 at the half. Second half is more of the same and we end up with an easier than expected 31-13 win. Brad gets his first TD of the season but splitting the carries three ways between Lester, Fannin, and Tate keeps all the backs from putting up ridiculous numbers. Kentucky's magical season keeps trucking along tomorrow night as Andre Woodson becomes the first QB to torch USC's defense. KY rubs the jelly in and smacks the Cocks 27-16. Georgia continues to improve on offense (they're starting three freshmen on the O line...sound familiar??) and puts another nail in Fulmer's coffin with a big win in Knoxville, 33-23. The big game on the bayou: Florida has just spent an entire week hearing how overrated they were and how their offense is a one trick pony...all you have to do is shut down Tebow and the gators become little lizards. Well, I ain't buying it. I realize that if there is a defense in the league that is as fast and sound as ours it is LSU, but I just think the UF offense is going to say FU to Glenn Dorsey and company. I thought Florida would win this game before the Beatdown in the Swamp and I'm sticking with my gut here. Florida drops LSU from the ranks of the unbeatens with a 30-24 win.
