Are we still claming he was only 14 at the time?

I recently bought a house and plan on living in it for 7-8 years before I want to build my forever house. Question is do I work on paying off all school loans in the meantime, or take that money and invest it so I will have more money to put down on loan/construction loan?


The reason I say to pay off student loans is they are non-dischargeable, so they will continue to haunt you should something unfortunate happen.

Baseball is a game more than football and basketball where the most athletic team doesn't always win


I would say baseball requires less luck to make the championship game/series due to how many games played, but is very susceptible to luck at the individual game level.

Football is highly susceptible to luck at both levels.

Myth. No evidence to back this up whatsoever. The sample sizes are way too small to ever make such claims.

Luck plays a major factor in getting to a championship.


Very true in football. Much less true in baseball.

Luck plays a big part in any championship


Of course. The whole setup is somewhat silly to begin with. LSU plays a brilliant regular season with dozens of games, yet the "championship" is decided by winning a couple of specific games at the end? Especially in baseball, luck is an overriding factor for such a small sample set. Just think about the error in Game 1. Firstly, we know that "clutch" play is a myth. That's been proven over and over. So from there, we also know that SOME errors will occur over the course of 50 or so games. Unluckily for LSU, they had an error at an inopportune time.

I know people don't want to hear any of this, but it's reality.
