I like that Jim Mashek. A sensible fellow, indeed. :thumb:

yeah, Saban is going to make the rest of the SEC his bitches

need a bcs requirement that a team has to play a minimum number of ranked opponents.. lsu will be playing several, usc might play 1 or 2.

I do like what he has to say. Nice article.

Excellent article - how long until this thread becomes a Randall / Russell argument?

Mashek is a great writer. That is my hometown paper and all people do is complain about all the LSU coverage over Ole Miss, USM, and MSU coverage, but Mashek still writes about LSU, and does an EXCELLENT job.

Thanks Tejas for the link. It was a great read and I just e-mailed him to say so. I also said if he really wanted to piss off Ole Miss fans he should do an article on how LSU almost had back-to-back seasons in '59 and how this is their year. lefire: :thumb: :champs: :champs: :champs: :champs: :champs:

Well it only took about 15 minutes before he e-mailed me back. This is one of the very few sportswriters I think that knows sh*t from shinola.

We'll see. But Saban does have a helluva program right down the street

edyel, while you are emailing Mashek, send one to his counterpart Ross Reily. I did'nt know this was part of it, till I read the paper.
