Skip the race, e. Bike races will always be waiting to torture you mind, body and soul. But The Hold Steady show at the New Orleans’ House of Blues? Could save your life entirely. Personally, I’m counting on it.

Who cares about football people! The Hold Steady show is a mere four days away!

There’s a shout out to The Hold Steady in McSweeney’s Recommends this week.

As a Dye-hard (sorry, we have to do that) Aub, I was sad to see Shula go. No Bama coach has ever been so thoroughly pwned by the Tigers. We are happy to see the Bama fans doing some penance for their years of evil oppression, but they’re several hundred thousand hail-marys from being in the clear.

D-Mac… sheesh. That guy makes Reggie Bush look like a chump.

Hey, tell me more about the holding Steady. What day is that? What are my odds of surviving that concert and then doing a bike race in Montgomery Alabama on Sunday morning? 1 in… say, 20? 30?

I can live with that.

Yes on Mike Shula – you cannot not beat Auburn and stay at UA, especially when you also lose to us. Yes on the Egg Bowl – I could neither watch nor hear the game where I was, but when I saw the score come across the ticker, I wanted to die. Yes on Ark v. LSU, though I was rooting for LSU since I got lots of family down that way who are die-hard Tigers. Yes, too, on DMc – he ist rad.

Ooooh, I want to go to that show SO BAD. And you take that back about the surely BCS-bowl-bound Tigers! Unless “lame-duck” is a colloquial Starkville expression meaning “teams who have managed to win more than three games a season for the last several years.”

I kid, I kid. Though I did see Jackie Sherrill offering commentary on one of the networks last night. I think he and Bill Frist should get together and have a cadaverous-off. My money’s on Frist, but I wouldn’t count Jackie out.
