The hardest part of being a parent
Posted by LSUweights on 2/3/26 at 8:46 am
A couple of years ago I started a thread about my newborn daughter.
She was diagnosed with a super rare form of epilepsy at birth.
Old Thread
I reached out on here for prayers and support. Mostly just to like and follow her page so we could spread awareness and maybe one day find a cure.
Yesterday morning, my baby girl, at 3 years old, went to be with the Lord
As a parent, I've never felt so crushed and helpless.
Three years is not enough time
I still need her here.
I don't know what to do
Trying to be the tough dad for my wife and 8 year old son
Thank you for liking, sharing, and following her story

Rooting for CJ Daniels.
Great kid.
His sister has Epilepsy and so does my daughter.
We got to meet him and his mom last year when he was with LSU.
Big advocate for epilepsy kids.
Sad he left LSU but want him to win

re: Does anyone remember Dutch (1991)?

Still watch it every Thanksgiving
Remember years back there was a TV show about 2 detectives.
It didn't last long
But the 2 detectives were Ed O'Neill and the guy who played the kid in Dutch

re: YouTubeTV far superior
Posted by LSUweights on 11/11/25 at 9:32 am to mdboss
I paused YTTV and went with Fubo.
I typically share YTTV with my brother and he pays for the extra add on to do that $10 a month
While Fubo doesn't offer the share, It was the best option
Hulu offers the share, but you have to get the Premium plan and then add on the unlimited screen, while Fubo has 10 screen 2 device shares
No issue this week, so far, with buffering....using Roku

I see a lot of recommendations for Elite
I have never tried them but it could be worth a shot.
My son plays basketball with iDevelop off of Antioch and Tiger Bend.
Real good coach.
Hope it works out

What sport?
I'm assuming you are talking about leagues instead of travel?
I am so glad to be done with Traction for both baseball and flag football.
Fields are in good condition but they really suck at making schedules

re: Employee appreciation pizza parties
Posted by LSUweights on 10/1/25 at 11:46 am to NatalbanyTigerFan
I've never bought pizza for my operators.
I always ask them what they want.
I usually buy them a meal and a prize.
Here's what I've bought them in the last few years that they said they wanted:
- Tony's Seafood XL box and a custom company hat and shirt
- Grilled hot dogs and burgers on site and a custom company backpack
- Tony's Seafood XL box and a custom company fleece
I've also given away big screen TV, tool sets, custom knives, coolers, etc.. for safety

Saw on a FB page Rants and Raves of Ascension Parish, people are posting about the teachers and what school they are at.
Also seen 2 generic emails from AP school board members that they are taking the matter seriously and are investigating

Never was a CB fan, but my son is
We were at Tanger on Saturday and he wanted to go there for lunch.
I told him no, that in fact, we won't ever be going there again.
He's 7, so when he asked why, I said it was because they failed health inspection/rats and roaches
He said ok dad, let's go somewhere else

What is up with BR traffic this summer??
I was looking forward to smooth traffic in the afternoons and mornings due to school being out
It seems at least 2 days of every week so far this summer, there is something on the interstate causing backups
10-E was backed up yesterday with 2 accidents
Week before 110 was backed up with 2 accidents and a stalled vehicle in the early morning
Week before was an accident at seigan on 10-E
Week before that was an accident at the 10/110
Geez this sucks!!!

I bought 2 tickets for Friday night to take my son...thinking they had it since the ticket office said yes
Waste of money when I could have bought 4 rows back in a different section for half the price

Do you get free food and drinks with tickets?
I have googled for 30 minutes...Google says yes but all the links to TD threads on this topic say no
Called ticket office and they put me on hold to confirm. Lady came back and said yes.. she didn't sound sure
Thanks,

I have a picture of my son and I from his recent football game. I want to frame it but the other coach is right in the middle of the picture.
Can someone help me out and remove him?
If so, I will send the picture via email so my son can remain anonymous
Thank You

This item right here....
I buy 2 every week for each of my kid's humidifier in their room.
In 2019, they were $3.99
In 2022, they were $6.99
Today, they are $9.99
That's $20 every week for 2 disposable filters.
