  1. The movie No Country For Old Men is about 3% as good as the book.  And that's not really a knock on the movie.

    Inception is an excellent movie all the way around.  So is The Dark Knight.

    The problem with movies is that almost all of the acting, writing, and directing talent has gone to television.  We can all name more great series than movies in the last 20 years.  Hell, Tarantino and Nolan are about the only people making great movies anymore.

  2. After winning 7 of 8, I'd convinced myself that all those losses to LSU, Stanford, and Arkansas just meant that we weren't ready to compete with top ten teams, but since we were beating the teams we were supposed to beat, sometimes easily, maybe we were a fringe top 25 team with a chance to win a regional.  Yeah, bullshit.
