    Great Movie Casting "Misses"

    He did turn down the Mills character, you’re right. Would have been a huge mistake to cast him alongside Freeman in that role, IMO. Pitt played that part with a perfect cocky naïveté that I’m not sure Denzel could have pulled off, and that was the character “flaw” that created the amazing payoff.

    Great Movie Casting "Misses"

    Spielberg wanted the shark to be the star, so he was very much against casting big names. The studio wanted Charlton Heston to play Brody, but he was too big of a name for the role in Spielberg’s mind. Heston actually took that really personally and refused to work with Spielberg in any capacity...

    Great Movie Casting "Misses"

    All three of the main characters in Jaws were backups to backups (to backups) and thank god they were. Schneider, Dreyfuss and Shaw were perfect. Peter Benchley suggested Robert Redford, Paul Newman and Steve McQueen for those parts. Spielberg said no way to that, but he did want John Voight to...

    I haven’t seen the Des Moines River look like it does now in a long time. Many years.

    Definitely people absolutely gutted for Scott. Taylor’s staff will for sure be something to watch. Cael’s staff is crazy good, and yet I would not be surprised if Taylor assembles one that is just as dynamic. Possibly more so, just with less coaching experience, maybe. I guarantee this will...

    Mineo was joking about Yazdani. He said “will Yazdani move here to join Sooners staff”. The “Sooners” is not a typo. He was making a joke due to the Taylor/Yazdani rivalry.

    Lots of rumors out there. Wild stuff, yet none seems too wild. The Taylor hiring is already interesting, but this could all get VERY interesting.

    In Runnells. Sirens were going for a little bit. Intense for a few minutes, but while still some heavy rain and high wind, worst seems to have passed.

    Slippery slope. I bet Brooks/PSU gets away with it. Probably has a script and just didn’t file it correctly. Some technicality like that.

    Not sure about that, but Adderall does curb appetite, while providing energy boosts and extreme focus. A person can crush workouts when that’s all they think about and never get tired.

    Duh…I should have known! The old “went over your head” deal :D

    They might, but interesting subtext is that Penn State knew about this but apparently nobody told Taylor.

    Whoa: For the record, I believe Adderall is absolutely a performance enhancing drug.
