40 - 3!!!!!!!!



40 -3 !!!!!

Attn Miami: You lost on the field... so why did you attempt to fight off the field??? You lost that one too!!! Silly Hurricanes with some kind of chicken for a mascot... you should know better than to follow a Tiger into his den!!!

Wow!!! 40- 3!!! (and 2 TKO's)

You see what a healthy Addais can do? and an attacking defense??

40-3 ...how sweet it is!!!! 17 years in the making... but I still think we owe those jokers 4 points.

GAME's ON .. LSU Vs. U of Thugs

I know what you're thinking.. "Al...what's the use ..the season is lost....Katrina,Rita, another Hurricane brewing, the UGA loss...the season's over...we're 10-2... Les sucks...blah blah"...

NO!!!! THIS IS IMPORTANT!! ..take a step back won't you...

November 19th, 1988...

I remember it like it was yesterday... it was raining from every direction...even from the ground up... Miami ranked #3 came to Baton Rouge... we were going to show them what SEC football was all about...after all LSU was ranked #11 and it was Saturday Night in Death Valley... WELL...the GAME ABSOLUTELY SUCKED.. WE got pummelled 44 to frickin 3...... and I swore that night ...on any other night...we'd beat those convicts from Miami...and when can we get those jokers again....

FLASH FORWARD...

December 4th, 2005....

Yes it wasn't a dream LSU got killed by UGA... but wait... 17 years have passed since that night...many coaches have come and gone...many Miami players from that team may have even made parole by now...but here it is...the Peach Bowl has Selected LSU to face Miami... 17 years...I've waited for redemption....

GAME'S ON!!!!

No room for fairweather Tiger Fans... We'll take on anybody..anywhere..even in the Georgia dome... There will be no Rain storm from Hell to save the hurricanes this time.....

The "U"

How flippin' annoying...this year hip-hop fav Miami is sooo popular that they're name has been slanged to just "the U" ... shortened from University of Thugs, Miami Penal Colony, etc.
Led by Larry Coker..who won a National Championship his first year and ..well hasn't repeated..so he must suck.... A stingy D is all you gotta know 'bout these guys.. they have 2 losses ...and well their QB is no Brock Berlin (don't know if that's good or bad), drug dealers, convicts, twice on probation with the NCAA since 1988....

LSU

Miles is 10-2..and has something to prove after the UGaly debacle..as does Bo Pelini and Jimbo Fisher... Jamarcus is out..so in steps Matt Flynn ...will his legend be born...or will his hype be discovered??? I'm thinking LEGEND....

Last game for Sklyer....should be a good one.....

Al's Gut Feel....

Al's gut feel full of Christmas Turkey..but I still feel.....

TIGERS BABY!! VENGEANCE!!!


LSU 24 Mia 17

Roll Santa....



-- insert caption here --

the Grinch that Stole Christmas...2004 version...

ah..yes...its almost been a year since the Grinch Stole Christmas.. Now don't get me wrong I truly appreciate all the Nick Saban (the guy on the right in the pic above next to LSUAL) brought to Louisiana and LSU but the way it ended was a litte off (yes Nick your timing stinks). If the trauma of the event has clouded your memory...here's a little refresher. It was on Christmas DAY of 2004 that Nick made that decision to leave LSU and Louisiana for that other hurricane magnet known as south Florida to attempt to coach the spoiled overpaid 'athletes' of the Miami Dolphins (the 5th best team in the state of Florida).

So here we are a year later... Nick went on to lose one more game for the Tigers... in steps Les Miles and the Tigers are 10-2. Yes 10-2... tis not bad... .

Perspective...

It was all put into perspective for me the week after the debacle in Atlanta....I was at Drusilla Seafood in B.R...and what do I see on the wall... an autographed picture of Curley Hallman...yes fans ...we're much better off than "THE DARK TIMES" ....

Long Live LSU!!!!

..and Nick couldn't you have picked another day?????

..JUST PEACHY

Okay... two weeks til the revenge game...

Revenge for that 44-3 debacle in Tiger Stadium in 1988. Mike Archer's Tigers got slammed by Steve Walsh and the Convicts in what may have just been a late season hurricane.....

Two weeks...and 17 years later.....in the bowl soon to be called only the CHICK-FIL-A-Bowl (nice!!) ... we'll get to see what was pre-season last year billed as the potential matchup for the 2004 National Championship... well we know that didn't happen... but some writers are calling this one a potential pre-matchup of the 2006 National Championship Game.

In LES(s) we trust!!

In comes Flynn.....

stay tuned....

LSU vs. Miami

Congrats!! Appy State!!

..big congratulations to Appy State 29- 23 winner over Furman (with Ex-Gator Ingle Martin as QB) in the Div-1AA Semifinals. App. St now takes on N. Iowa for the championship...

..make fun of LSU's Div-1AA Tigerbait all you want... but I guarantee you that team would beat any team from the State of Mississippi!!

It's been Two flipping years since I've been able to write one of these... and I've got a lot to say...(hope you weren't busy at work when you decided to log into Al's website today...go shut your door...this could be a while.....)
SEC CHAMPIONSHIP RANT!!!

TIGAHS!! VS. Dem Jawga Bulldogs!!

Home Sweet Georgia Dome!!! LSU's Home (and undefeated Home) Away from home...

You know the recent history of the series... We owe them for last year...and they can't get past getting beat twice in the 2003 Championship year... Tighten your chin strap, ice the beer, pour a little more bourbon, pop in that Tiger Band CD, or the Oklahoma Sugar Bowl Championship DVD..whatever it takes to bring y0ur "A" Game. Take no prisoners, this is WAR!!!

SEC Championship Game ...West Champ vs. East Champ .. (meanwhile Auburn has it's order forms in for their co-champs rings to go with their 'people's National Championship' Rings from last year).....


Here's the Records...

UGA

Mascot: A lazy ugly dog... that has a serious drool problem..

Band.. ..don't know ..maybe REM and the B52's (soon to hit the casino circuit)....

Led by Mark Richt in his 3 trip to Atlanta in the last 4 years. ...one his first, lost his second and will lose his third again to LSU.

QB - D.J. Shockley - darling of the SEC Media... he's unstoppable...well unless he's getting chase around by the good guys in the purple and gold uni's. ...remember that performance in 2003...what -15 yards rushing and 2 incomplete passes...don't think that's still not waiting to resurface like some Mekong Delta Flashback...

The rest - #43 Total Offense, #15 Total Defense, #5 Scoring Defense, #32 Running Defense..BINGO..weekness identified....

and Kirk Herbstriets favorite team outside of the Auburn War Chickens... ..$%$^$ U!! Herbie!!

L. S. U ... TIGERS!!

Mascot: One live Bengal Tiger with an attitude and a shiny new habitat

Band: The Golden Band From Tigerland and those spectacular Golden Girls. (Okay Band ..what was with that non-solid performance last week???? You will be forgiven with a solid performance this week)

Pelini, Miles and yes Jimbo... Miles has the longest Win streak current in the SEC!! Tigers 10-1 best regular season record since 2003....

(side track .. all you yahoos whining about this season... I was there for Archer and Hallman and Dinardo... this aint' the second coming of any of those miserable excuses for coaching... they had talent too at times...it doesn't just take talent and luck to win a game ...it's knowing what to do with that talent and luck... if you think Les and the staff suck..go watch the USC game on another channel or turn off you TV until sunday so you can worship that Great Miami Dolphin team...)...okay back to the game at hand....

QB - Jamarcus "Would Somebody Catch the DAMN BALL" Russell .. without a doubt the best Sophomore QB in the country......seven dropped balls last week from being SEC player of the week.... I like our chances.....

The rest - Bowe..catch the ball... Justin "I'm playing on Field Turf!!, I'm playing on Field Turf!!" Vincent... yes folks he saves his best for the plastic grass.... All World Punter and occassionally accurate kicker - Chris Jackson... #57 Total Offense, #5 Total Defense, #4 Scoring Defense, #5 Run Defense.. JUST TRY SCRAMBLING D.J.!!!!

WHAT WILL HAPPEN

2/3 rd's UGA fans can't drown out the 1/3rd Tiger Fans... Months of frustration,tumult,tension,anger,aggravation,Jim Cantore watchin',Fema trailerin,evacuatin' and inhibriation...are way too much for the Georgia team and crowd to handle....

DOMINATION!!!

Bowe catches everything in sight. ...our defense catches balls too...I think they may have switched gloves or something... Vincent and Addai have way too much fun with that plastic grass and DJ Shockley ends up with a very clean jersey thanks to the field turf despite being pounded into it repeatedly....

TIGERS 42

UGA 17

oh yeah...and UCLA has just beaten USC by 2 touchdowns... ESPN is about to go into meltdown....

It's Gameday by Jill....

We're baaaaaaaaack!

Hello there, Mr Shockley
So nice to see you again
We met you one time in Tiger Stadium
You might remember our D linesmen

The players may have changed
But the game remains the same
After our blistering defensive attack
You won't remember your name

Our road has been longer and harder
This was the season that wouldn't start
But The Tigers didn't crumble and retreat
They came together with Championship Heart

An amazing group of athletes
Of fathers and sons and men
They beat the odds and the others
They understand what it takes to win

The Tiger migration has started
The road is paved with Purple and Gold
The beer is cold and the gumbo is cooking
It's time for the Victory to unfold

It's December in the SEC
And the bulldogs are going to go down
LSU owns the Georgia Dome
Atlanta is Our Title Town


GEAUX TIGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
