And The Oscar Goes To....Les Miles?

This is good. Everything feels right and things that didn't make sense are now coming together. Have you ever had a show you've been watching that pushes back the release date for it's new season because now the main actor is a mega star and put off filming the show to do some blockbuster movie? Les Miles! That's what he's been doing. I thought he maybe would've wanted the Texas job, or the Maryland job, or the A&M job, or FSU job, etc. Silly me! Should've known he was filming. Made it just in time for the coveted Jayhawks position. The last time Kansas won more than three games in a season was 10 years ago in 2009. Les' now infamous "Uh.... Uh....Uh.... Things." presser now makes sense. He was used to just yelling "LINE!" when he lost his train of thought. 

The movie is about is of course about the tragic story of the Challenger in 1986. For those of you who don't know, the Challenger was taking seven passengers on the USA's 25th mission into space when it exploded on national television before it could reach orbit. It was also the first, and I'm assuming last, time they were running the School Teacher in Space Program where one of the passengers on the flight was just a regular ol school teacher. Sad sad stuff. But, there was already a movie made on the Challenger, heres it's rotten tomatoes score:


Don't worry Les. I'm sure you're rendition is just fine. No pressure. In his only line in the trailer, Les screams "I'm telling you to do it! Quantify your results!". Football field or NASA lab? Kudos to the writer for giving Les the same script that he could just scream on the sidelines. 

All jokes aside, it's good to have Les Miles back in the football limelight. Cause he's a fucking weirdo. Here are some random facts about Les. 
-He pronounces Arkansas like "Are-Kansas". 
-He wears a brand new hat before every game he coaches and between his antics and his slightly too small hat he's known as the Mad Hatter. 
-Some of his players have been known to call him "Lesticles" for his ballsy play calling. Like the time instead of going up 3 against Florida at the end of the game he had his holder throw a no look bounce pass over his head to the kicker who ran it for a first down to set up the LSU win. 
-He also did a movie wear he plays a cop and honestly just kinda looks like every older cop I've ever seen.

-After he did an interview with Erin Andrews, an 80 something year-old man asked Les what it was like to be interviewed by a "sweet young thang" like her at a presser. Here was his response. "Here's the honesty. If they had given that job to some big old ugly man. It wouldn't be near as much fun, well one. What a joy it is to represent LSU in the post game with victory and to celebrate victory in a post game interview with a very talented, very attractive woman."
You lose your job you say that today in a presser. Can't call people attractive anymore, everybody knows that. Whole scene was super uncomfortable. And that old pervert? He doubled down. Went on to ask how that guy got the Erin Andrews video through the peep hole cause as he puts it "I've peeping through keyholes for years and I've yet to see anything but a blank wall."   
- He eats the fucking grass on the field that he's playing on. He says it humbles him to realize he's only a part of this field and this game. Claims Death Valley has the best tasting field. Best part about this is that Kansas has a turf field. If this little weirdo starts chomping on the rubber then he just needs to be arrested.

-It's rumored that Les sneak attacked his daughter, pouring a water bottle on her while she was learning to drive. Guess it's pretty important to expect the unexpected while behind the wheel.

It's just really good to have Les back from his movie hiatus. Hope he didn't get too Hollywood on us. I doubt I'll watch his movie. To me his biggest disaster will always be only getting to the Outback Bowl with a roster that had Odell Beckham, Jarvis Landry, Jeremy Hill, Alfred Blue, Danielle Hunter, Deion Jones, and Tre'Davious White on it. Enjoy those Awesome Blossoms boys, Go Tigers!
