This was inspired by the Ken Burns Documentary, "The Civil War." Read it as if you were watching the show, in your best Shelby Foote voice. For a nice touch, play the music as you read.

I have seen battle; they are horrific to the eye and even more gruesome to the soul but never more necessary are they to those men and to what the stand for. - Sgt. Gregory Studrawa, 8th Brigade Louisiana State

The off-season brings up a lot of topics that, of course, are not college football related. On that note, here is a question I pose to the audience: What do you do for a living? What work are you setting aside to read EDSBS? Should you be studying? Are you a DURDY DURDY LAWYER!? Or are you still living off that sweet gravy gravy called parents? Feel free to comment because I'm interested to know and I'm sure some of you are curious too.

I'll start it off:

My grandmother lives in Pierre Part, LA which is in the line of fire should they open up the Morganza Spillway. I expect and a foot of water to reach her door. How should I go about sandbagging her house? Do i go for just the doors and low windows or do I build a makeshift floodwall. Believe it or not, I have never had to lay down sandbags and I don't know how to lay them out to prevent flood damage. water will come from 3 sides. Any helps or tips will be appreciated and pictures will be provide once it's done, just for shits and giggles. 

Kickoff: Ok. Let's start it off. Well, PP didn't get a good run but ok, let's run and see what happens.

First Play: HOLY FUCKING SHIT! GO! GO! GO! Yes, he gets it. That why he starts!

First Interception: Damn it. That's why Lee should play.

Whole game until last play: /Heavy drinking

Last play before snap and penalty: "Want a shot?" - Bartender "Yes" - Me

Penalty Call and "last play": YES! HOW? YES! HOW? I'm questioning the last 6 years of my life.

Touchdown, Tigers Win!: No word. Mass confusion and heavy drinking.

Florida/Bama Game: Heavy drinking.

Post Game, watching Blindside: SJ a bitch for not taking LSU's offer. What a dick. Heavy drinking.

Typing this: Confusion, Heavy Drinking.  

If you don’t believe in miraculous events, I invite you to follow the 2010 LSU Bayou Bengals football team.  Despite what appeared to be an unbelievably hard schedule before the season started, the Tigers have managed to go through the first quarter of the schedule with an unblemished record with the help of suspensions, overhyped teams, and a stellar defense. This alone is not miraculous. What is astounding is how we’ve won with an absolutely inept offense, with an emphasis on poor play-calling, QB play, and poor strategy.

This asshole from Florida has stated publicly that UF fans know more football than Alabama fans.

Florida Gators vs Alabama 2010 Preview (via sorryche2)

True or not, he still accomplishes sounding like a rank amateur resorting to childish bombasts involving typecasts about folks from the state of Alabama, which makes his arguments completely invalid. It also looks like he's a huge fan of Keanu Reeves, which makes him come across as an ignorant asshole right off the bat. 

Also, by the looks of Florida seller offense which mimics that of one LSU, the Gators have a long road ahead of them in order to beat Alabama, though, LSU has managed to get into the top ten that features a QB that has exactly one game over 100 yards this season. 

Now, I’ll never defend Alabama fans but I will always point out someone who is an asshole. My father taught me this from a young age. I advise Alabama fans not only come up with an imaginative retort to this video, but that they also pass this missive along to anyone in the Alabama football program. Mark Ingram might be interested in what this man kid campaigns his Florida Gators to do to his knee.

  I can also ascertain that this guy will probably never come close to fucking a girl this hot.

The most recent Fulmer Cup scoreboard saw the reemergence of LSU to the top ten, albeit with a mere 4 points. Oregon leads thanks to the fine thievery of Jeremiah Masoli and crew. One might shake their head at the descending path that these young men seem to spiraling down. Things seem to be out of control with society. Things are not what they used to be. Those who say that are correct, but not in the way one would assume.   These kids committing these crimes are not representing the good in society, but their actions are paltry compared to the actions of the torchbearers that came before them. Now, my knowledge of badasses in past years is limited but one of these badasses has a renowned status among the fine folks in LSU country. So without further ado, let me provide some insight on the legend of Art Cantrelle.

While actively participating in the awesome "Make Your Meme" post, i cam across a comment mentioning the old confessions thread. I search for the thread, found it, and read. I thought "Damn, that would be cool thing to bring..." 

My phone rang, I answered. Then ended the conversation to complete my thought.

"...up and do again."

So here it is. I hope you participate in these confessions because it seems helpful.

Here are mine. Please forgive me:
