Damn. We nutria don’t get to see that kinda scratch too often. Cousin T-Bone landed a little more than that when he hit the GrandSlamMegaMoneyBonusJubilee at the slots over on the coast three days before Katrina, but he never got to spend it because he decided to celebrate, threw a three-day drunk and crashed at [...]

On LSU Football…

Posted on August 2nd, 2010 by macaoidh

Most of the Hayride’s readers are aware that my journalistic roots originally come from forays in the LSU sports media world. While I am thankfully clear of that fishbowl, I do, however, maintain a fervent interest in subjects related to Tiger football. And since it’s a Sunday, and since it’s now August and camp is [...]

Madden 2011: Saints Meet Obama?

Posted on July 27th, 2010 by Oscar

OK, so it’s a slow news night. But this was just goofy enough to make it onto the site. Apparently, the latest version of the John Madden computer football game concludes with the Super Bowl winner meeting the president. So this is what it looks like if the Saints win it…

“Bama Boy” Is “Gettin’ His Drank On” – And It Explains Plenty

Posted on July 7th, 2010 by Oscar

So Jamarcus Russell, who got himself Al Davis’ed after getting paid better than $4 million per win as a starting quarterback in the league, is now up on a drug beef? Wow. Tough break. What’d they get him for? Blow? Weed? Acid? Purple Drank? Heh.

In Which I Gripe About College Conference Realignments…

UPDATE: ESPN reports that Texas A&M isn’t going anywhere. The Big 10 now has 12 teams, and the Big 12 will go forward with 10. No problems on this end with this development. ORIGINAL POST: While the ongoing twin catastrophes of the Gulf Oil Spill and the Obamoratorium will return to the top of the [...]

Vitter Crushing Melancon By 24 Points Thanks To Recent Events

Posted on February 12th, 2010 by macaoidh

Three highly-publicized issues involving U.S. Sen. David Vitter in the past two weeks, along with an increasing momentum for Republican and conservative candidates nationwide, seem to be driving a major surge for Louisiana’s junior senator in his bid for re-election this fall, as a new Rasmussen poll has Vitter scorching his Democrat opponent, Congressman Charlie Melancon, [...]

Oscar’s Thoughts On The Super Bowl, Etc.

Posted on February 8th, 2010 by Oscar

This column marks the debut of Oscar, TheHayride.com’s resident voracious rodent and all-around pestilential influence. We want it known from the beginning that any relationship between what the little guy says and the editorial position of TheHayride.com staff is completely coincidental – were it not for certain contractual and/or economic factors unfortunately in play we [...]
