This evening on the podcast we have L.A. Times columnist TJ Simersstop by to discuss the Lane Kiffin article that he penned for his column today. Simers’ article Is USC’s Lane Kiffin really Mr. Misconduct, or just misunderstood is an interesting read that delves into both the man and the father-son dynamic that exists between Lane and his father Monte. The polarizing columnist holds true to formfrom rehashinghis first encounter with Kiffin to the discussion of Tennessee fans dwelling onKiffin’s job move.
Kiffin and Simers’ first encounter was a “cantankerous” event per TJ as he challenged the fresh faced 35 year old coach over the accusations of Ed Orgeron contacting Tennessee recruits as they arrivedat Southern Cal. Talk turns as Simers discusses Kiffin through the eyes of his father, a man that it universally respected and admired in the football world. Monte gave TJ Simers some interesting insight into the young head coach while quietly getting his son’s back and making sure to rebuke the rumors that Lane is a cheater.
As we talk more Kiffin we discuss the Tennessee aspect of the transition andthe hatred that grew from Lane’s transgressions. Simers describes the leaving after one year as more an affirmation of Kiffin’s “bratty nature” than one moment that swayed folks against Lane. TJ does makes his perspective on the folks who remain enraged over the departure of Kiffin clear; not only does it reflect poorly on them in his eyes but there’s a clear misunderstanding of Kiffin’s affinity for USC.
We end a more positive note discussing Kiffin’s future as the new USC head coach, the rookie AD Pat Haden working with the 35 year old coach to repair the image of the men of Troy. Simers does end with another barb at the good folks of Tennessee that admittedlyleaves your host somewhat speechless.

Filed under: Celtics, Heat, NBA TransactionsIt’s going to take a chemist, and not just a coach, to lead the Boston Celtics this season.
Things just got more complicated for Doc Rivers.
The Celtics improved their talent level this summer by first adding Shaquille O’Neal and now Delonte West, but they also dove into some risky territory with two potentially divisive players who could change the locker room makeup.
If chemistry really is such a big part of the success or failure of a team, like so many coaches say, then the Celtics admittedly are taking a chance.
It could win them another championship. Or it could destroy what they have.
“Chemistry is a delicate thing. I understand that, and I’m as cautious as anyone with it. I guarantee you, I’ll be keeping my eye on it,” Rivers told FanHouse Wednesday evening, confirming the Celtics’ addition of West earlier in the day. “I don’t know yet if we can make it work. It is going to be interesting, that’s for sure.”

In a move that renders moot all of Ole Miss’ attempted machinations to get former Oregon quarterback Jeremiah Masoli eligible for the 2010 football season, the NCAA ruled Masoli ineligible for this year. Masoli can go on scholarship immediately, but he has to sit out a year before he’d be able to take the field as a fifth-year senior in 2011. Ole Miss has appealed the ruling. But, in this particular instance, the NCAA made the correct decision.
For starters, the graduate transfer rule is frequently abused and many players who have graduated in three years have taken advantage of it. The graduate transfer rule allows a player who has graduated from one institution to transfer to another institution without sitting out a year if that institution features a course of graduate study not offered at the first institution. In practice, this makes three-year college grads free agents in their fourth year.
Suddenly, voila, you develop an interest in the one or two graduate courses not offered at your present university. Look around and, wow, it’s offered at another school that has less depth at your position. In Masoli’s case, it meant he was fulfilling a lifelong educational dream by enrolling in the graduate program in parks and recreation at Ole Miss. (Presumably the University of Oregon’s shrubbery is in a considerable state of disrepair). As a side benefit to the educational opportunity, wink, wink, Masoli would be able to take the field for the Rebels in the fall.
All he needed was for the NCAA to approve his transfer waiver. Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments

SPOILER WARNING: Before you read past this point, be warned: This article discusses the end of “The Last Exorcism” in depth, so stop reading if you intend to see the movie and don’t want to know how it ends.
Director Daniel Stamm’s mock documentary concludes on an open-ended note. As predicted earlier in the film by Nell’s (Ashley Bell) paintings, the cinematographer gets his head chopped off, the producer is hacked to pieces and the preacher, Cotton (Patrick Fabian), his faith seemingly restored, walks into the flame to ward off Hell, his cross held high and his ultimate fate left unclear. That ending has spurred quite a bit of discussion among many who have seen it.
MTV News talked to Stamm about that response and his reaction to it. “I don’t mind the passion that the discussion has spurred,” he said. “I’m getting threats now, which is a whole new thing for me. People are [tweeting] me, telling me to jump headfirst off the Empire State Building, really hateful [comments], which I can only take as a compliment. Which movie do you care about so much that you get so hateful and so passionate about it?”
Of the dialogue that’s sprung up, the director admits that he understands where the dissenters are coming from. “I think that a lot of the people that are upset by the movie [feel] that they are paying for you to enlighten their world a little bit with an answer about what’s going on around them,” he said. “They want a statement that is clear. That is a very legitimate position to me, but that is not what the movie does. The movie leaves you with a question. And it was very true to the format of the documentary style that you don’t understand everything.”
By “staying true to the documentary style,” Stamm is referring specifically to the death of the camera operator in the film’s final scene. “Yes, it’s abrupt, because your point of view is gone, you’ll never find out what happened after that. There is no scene that neatly ties it all together and explains it all to you because that’s not how it would go down. I think the rest of the movie is naturalistic enough … that it would be a complete betrayal of the movie [to tie things together].”
He appreciates that the film’s conclusion has a very definable impact on the scale of the story, from an intimate gathering of concerned individuals and one troubled little girl to a community full of Devil-worshipping Satanists. “I understand that people are maybe overwhelmed by the openness of the ending, but at the same time … I can’t think of a different ending to this movie. I think it completely does it justice and I think it does the characters justice.”
