Mobile’s Mardi Gras scene is pretty chill. Not as many people, easy downtown grid to get around, and the floats are good too. Kind of feels “more family oriented.” It is a great place for Mardi Gras.

There is a big absence in the southeast. I guess us backwoods, hick, redneck, know-nothing folks can behave ourselves. Amazing how us ignorant folks don’t look so ignorant nationally.

“Seed of Memory” vocals are nuts

All the guys that have swallowed their pride and lesbians in those Subarus getting their milk.

I finally got around to watching The Pacific series. Didn’t know I drive by Eugene Sledge’s childhood home on a daily basis.

Those Pacific marines were as tough as a woodpecker’s lips. Amazing what they endured.

The coach and QB’s balls are leaving rutted tracks from dragging all over the field

I can't wait for the first trade in college. That's how ridiculous all this crap is getting.

Nobody is beating this team if they hold serve. They are soooooo well coached and fundamental.

No. It is a silver can just like Copenhagen. Not as fine cut as Copenhagen but flavor is very similar.

Trades. Coming soon.

There is no reason to follow high school recruiting. These kids certainly don’t care about the university they sign with.

I posed this question a while back: “what association does any player have with the university these days?”

It is literally only the name of the uniform. There is no allegiance, no sweat equity, no love of the school/traditions.

It has become mercenary ball. I found myself pulling for Navy the other day because at least with the service academies (at least from an optics perspective) they are playing for their service institution.

Baws, college sports of the past is absolutely dead. A real shame.

Almost assuredly did…BUT that would be too based American baw to broadcast. And you know there was a fruit in the broadcast truck screeching “cut it to the two Steves!!!!”

Kirk H.’s tearful apology on behalf of SVP and hetero white men incoming!

I will always hold that against him. Crying like a baby back on tv vicariously white knighting is/was disgusting.

The only association these men and women have in college athletics with the school is the name on the jersey. It is an absolute open free agency market with no restrictions. As such, I don’t think anybody with a good conscience can say they are pulling for their “school’s team”. There is no School loyalty, pride, association, or sweat equity anymore to and for the school. The current system of college athletics is absolutely broken. Been an Auburn guy since I was four years old (42 years) and I can’t even get excited or disappointed about any team because it’s going to be a completely different team next year.

Long gone are the days of watching a kid come in as a freshman and matriculate his way up the roster. It absolutely sucks.

Hell, Florida just had their Freshman AA DE declare he is going to the portal. This is the current state of the game.

Oh I know. I have officially reached (and it has been heading this way since there was an unrestricted portal) the point of not vesting in any Auburn sports teams. It sucks because college sports, particularly football, was the existence of my sports world…and the Braves.

This whole state of college sports is absolute crap. I caught myself freeing up Saturdays for hunting about the time the portal went crazy. Now, I think I’m about to the point of no return.

Sad.

So how worried should we be? There are portal entries with every new coaching change (or even without a change) and with these entries being personalized to us, should we be panicking now?

Cam entering was the one I didn’t want to hear but knew it was a probability.
