Will was laughing at the joke until GI Jada gave him the eye. She has disrespected Will more than Rock did her. But not as much as August did her. That family is dysfunctional to begin with.

Will Smith is a little bit€h!

She might even let him take video.

If Tennessee isn’t the consensus #1 regardless of what happens today, then (insert poll here) hates us.

Tomorrow at noon we will know if there’s new publications to clown on for disrespecting us. Can’t wait!

 

[OrangeMoundTNVol]

It depends on the joke. “I can’t wait to see you in GI Jane 2” at an event known for these types of joke is hardly “I have to defend my wife’s honor!” Territory. Good grief people

Ehhh I tend to agree but his wife is very sensitive about her hair right now, saw an article on yahoo on it a while back. Her Daughter even shaved her head to help her Mom with the insecurity issue she has with it. Will was laughing at first until he saw a hurt Jada, and had to do something drastic to make up for him laughing as well. We all have done something extreme to stay out of the dog house, especially when you just got out of it(their marriage has been in the news A LOT).

Mel gibson being shocked should tell you something.

Mel looked like he was thinking, "You know Will, I can teach you how to do that better."

Millionaires patting themselves on their backs

That's every political convention and every business convention too. As well as events like Davos. Rich people are quite adept at holding semi-public events where they praise themselves. The Oscar's are the 'poor' version of events like this -- most of them couldn't afford the door fee for real rich people events.

Thank you! Things are good other than my husband’s drinking problem, but it’s about at the end. He’s either got to quit or very serious health problems are coming. He had a seizure on me last fall (apparently there’s a link between alcoholism and having seizures as a kid), memory loss (something happened againThursday where he is confused and loses memory, and now he can’t remember me being in the hospital or my dad dying), missed 3 days last week so may be fired tomorrow, and all the financial problems that come with hitting the bottom. He says he really wants to quit now and is going to the doctor in the morning. So any prayers would be appreciated! I said 2021 was the worst year of my life. Now I want to go back! This place helps...love the people here!

More steam, Soda...you got this, girl!

That’s not an alpha male. That’s a childish act of a dude who thinks he’s still a teenager in Philly

Will smith….. his wife….. his kids are all jacked up…. I use to think they were some of the best well-adjusted celebrities out there but I have seen enough interviews to realize how messed up will smith is.

Nobody from Bama going to the moon. Trash university. Saban offers Chargers, we offer the moon...literally.

History of slapping men’s faces?

History of slapping men’s faces?

Dude tried to kiss him on the mouth. Smith was down for a hug and it looked like even the side air kisses (which is what I think he thought the guy was doing at first) but unwanted kissing isn't cool at all. FWIW, I've never been a big WIll Smith fan but you can't just sexually assualt a celeb which is what that guy was trying to do.

Just sayin...that lil twerp wouldn't still be standing with a stupid grin on his face if it was anybody that knows how to actually slap the taste out of somebodies mouth.

Continuing with the SP+ previews, this is my take on Florida and LSU:

Billy Napier was successful at Louisiana perhaps because he elevated recruiting to the #1 position in the Sun Belt Conference and brought in Power 5 transfers. He built their roster up from middle of the pack to the pole position.

He may be a good coach but similar to Saban he also had the best talent relative to his conference opponents. His predecessor with the Ragin Cajuns had been dismissed because an assistant had been paying players. That guy is another story and it doesn’t look all that pretty to me.

Anyway, Napier worked under Saban and Swinney as well as McElwain and from what I can tell he leans toward the offensive side of things. He’s expected to be the offensive play caller for the Gators.

He is considered to be a good recruiter but recruiting at Florida against other SEC, ACC, and B1G schools I suspect is going to be a bigger hill to climb that recruiting at Louisiana against other bottom tier G5 schools.

If for whatever reason he can’t consistently elevate the recruiting at Florida into the upper tier of the conference he may not last 4 years which I think is the max the Gators have allowed for their last 3 coaches.

His departure from Louisiana may have been good timing from a business/career perspective. Bill Connelly has Louisiana ranked #124 in FBS schools for returning production this year. Ouch.

This year Connelly and others who track returning production are incorporating the stats of transfer players into their numbers. For example, Pickett is gone from Pittsburgh so these gurus are substituting his lost production with the production at QB by Slovis at USC. Same with Rattler at South Carolina. I’m not sure how that’s going to stand up but that’s what they’re doing.



I have a hard time listening to Kelly at LSU. He sounds like a preacher turned politician. One of the things that he said that stood out to me is that when he got to LSU the roster only had 39 scholarship players left on it. He expect to have 84 guys by the time the season starts. Similar to Florida though some of the guys he’s inherited were high level blue chips so I don’t know how they’re going to do this year. According to Connelly’s SP+ maybe not so good. Both Florida and LSU have a number of what I would consider toss up games, at least at this point. Toss up meaning where the projected margin is equal to or less than one TD.

I’ve got Florida at maybe 8-4 but probably not that good and LSU at 3-9 and I hope that’s where they finish. I would love to visit the Tigers message board after them having a 3-9 season. jmo.

Note: From Connelly’s tweet above, we have the highest returning production relative to any one on our schedule and our numbers aren’t aided by transfers that I’m aware of, at least not yet. jmo.

Will Smith? Guy is worth hundreds of millions. That's kinda up there. Hard to really differentiate between he and Elon Musk there. Not sure there are many places on Earth that would say no to either of those douche canoes.

Couldn’t imagine growing up in that household.
