    Revenge of the Nerds passes the test because Booger was out combing the high schools all day looking for a date. But seriously, it - along with Animal House and Old School - was just part of a side cenversation about rapey movies not aging well, like some scenes in these HS movies.

    You wondering why a college movie isn't anyone's favorite high school movie?
  3. Don Johnson
    Speaking of rapey movies.... Two movies that (in my head) are recent but really aren't - Varsity Blues and Old School - have scenes that certainly wouldn't be included today. Tweeder's quote above. Mitch from Old School hooking up with a high school girl.

    Probably just easier to pick the best for each decade or even every 5 years period. I'm late Gen X (1977) and while I love The Breakfast Club, I was in 3rd grade when it came out and don't relate to it at all. American Pie, I absolutely related to. Came out when I was a senior in college and very much felt like my HS era just 4 years prior.

    Honestly, college coaches deserve more. They are the coach, the GM, have to kiss boosters' asses, have to kiss players' asses, have to kiss players' parents' asses, have to keep kids in class/eligible and now they have to recruit their entire roster every single year. 365 days a year they do this. NFL coaches just coach and weigh in on personnel decisions. That's it.

    I originally thought Norvell was out with his tweet yesterday about the future at FSU. But apparently that was about a recruit, so he's probably still very much in play.

    Stewart Mandel kept pumping this as a must read article, so I read it. What a nothingburger. Dumb anyway that on air personalities wouldn't receive an Emmy as part of the team if the show won. If they faked one to give it to an inspirational guy in the mail room, this would be a feel good story.

    Norvell

    Which will be a total crapshoot, even if its a big name.

    Lanning out. Sark out. Kiffin probably not in the picture. Dabo lost his luster. If they don't get Norvell or Deboer, there's a big dropoff in name recognition.

    Possibly. But if you follow anything that goes on in that city, it’s more believable that they 1) are just really shitty about doing their job and 2) don’t give a fuck about doing their job, than it is to believe they are involved in a big coverup. Like discussed in the original thread, this guy was on PCP and meth and crossing an interstate at night. It’s not surprising that he got hit. He clearly wasn’t unidentified. They knew who he was and where he was buried. They just didn’t bother making an effort to let the family know.

    The accusations to date are that they just didn't put out any effort to find out who these people were, contact the relatives, bury them with any dignity, etc. That's dropping the ball to me.

    I heard when @Homercles needs a new set of tires, he just rents a car from Avis, trades out the tires with his and returns the rental.

    Correct, this started with Dexter Wade. There was a thread on it. Linked below. People should not be shocked that a city and county that 1) can't provide clean drinking water, 2) is the murder capital of the US, 3) can't answer 911 calls, 4) can't pick up trash regularly, 5) can't provide ballots on voting day, 6) doesn't pay its bills....... Would drop the ball on something like this.

    When I think of cities in those states, in Alabama, Birmingham (Metro) and Huntsville have grown and improved over the past 25 years. Plus Alabama has a nice coast with Fairhope, Gulf Shores, Orange Beach etc. The real start of the Redneck Riviera. Mobile has gotten shittier IMO, but the two big college towns, Tuscaloosa and Auburn, have grown a lot. Mississippi has no real attractive places to live for professionals. Oxford is nice and charming, but that's like 25k people. Jackson is one of the worst cities in the US. The coast is nicer than you'd think but not much of a beach attraction. IMO, everywhere in Louisiana has gotten shitier. NOLA. Baton Rouge. Shreveport. So, Alabama >>>> Mississippi and Louisiana.

    Irritated about the Peacock game. Don't want to sign up for $5.99/month. Yet, I paid $30 for a month of Flosports (twice!) to watch the worst college baseball production in history. But its a great matchup on a Saturday night and my kids will kill me if I don't.

    Saw it today. Didn’t read the book. Very much enjoyed the movie. Had a Cinderella Man feel to it.
