re: Refrigerator or Freezer in Garage

Posted by grhopper on 3/21/24 at 5:27 pm
If it's going in your garage, consider scratch & dent places. I just got a 21cf upright freezer from a place in Port Allen for $475 cash. Still had all of the tags and stuff inside. It would have been over $950 from Lowes. They told me they have a contract with Lowes to take their damaged appliances...

How many of you that say you've never been polled answer the phone when you don't recognize the number? I get called frequently and always take the time to answer the polls. I did phone surveys in high school in the early 90 when everyone had a landline, so things are a lot different now then bac...

I care as much as they do. If the players have their knee pads above their thighs, chin straps aren't fully fastened, and never have their mouth piece in, why should I care if they get hurt? Kids in high school mirror what they see on TV. When it looks like college and pro players are wearing shorts...

[quote]Why does Neville keep playing 4A and moved up to 5A for playoffs.[/quote] TLDR: 5 classes in regular season, 4 divisions in playoffs. Every 2 years they take the attendance numbers for schools that play football. They take the number of schools, divide by 5 and set the attendance levels...
Has there been an official comment on what body part was injured? I know his helmet was twisted 90 degrees before being pulled off. Assumed it was a head or neck injury. Didn't know if it was related to something else....

[quote]BTW all the talk about him transferring is bullshite he's not going anywhere. He loves it at LSU and accepted the fact that he was going to redshirt.[/quote] I was on LSU's sideline last night. Every time he touched the ball the players on the sideline were going crazy cheering him on. When...

Imagine some of the Les Miles teams of the NFL didn't make players declare for the draft, and you either were happy with where you got drafted or you stayed for your senior year ...
I think baseball has the best draft system. I think the NBA would benefit by adding a few G-leage teams, add a round to the draft, and you either sign out of high school or stay in college for 3 years. I do think NIL is going to help some with baseball. Would you rather slumb it in single A for ...

Only had $10 on it, but that tip in at the buzzer made me nervous. Was tempted to put money on over 134.5 in the second half. Would have doubled up. Also took GA +10 during half time....
I'm curious what association worked the game...
c. The team in possession may choose to either accept the results of the play at the dead-ball spot or replay the down if, during a down or during a down in which the penalty for a foul is declined, an inadvertent whistle is sounded while the ball is in player possession. d. The penalty shall be ...
[quote]You can hear the inadvertent whistle on the 3rd down play where Benton was trying to milk clock by holding the Denham defenders. That was a third down when Denham had no timeouts.[/quote] I feel like I'm still missing something on this play. Did they accept the penalty and run another 3rd ...
[quote]Not if there was a foul on offense or the game clock started on snap[/quote] If the injury happened during the play with the holding & IW, then the defense gets to elect to have the clock start on the snap, in which case the 25 second play clock would have been correct. None of that inf...
