Netflix "Receivers" series released with Justin Jefferson
Posted by bazeball on 7/11/24 at 2:04 pm
JJ came off as a good guy who is extremely talented and still very young. (He is introduced in the second episode). He speaks highly of LSU and the series even shows Jordan Jefferson a few times.
The five receivers they chose are all interesting. Devonte Adams is a machine. Amon-Ra St Brown was ...

re: Last night was the Trump campaign’s dream scenario
Posted by bazeball on 6/28/24 at 8:30 am
Trump should have used his closing remarks to ignore Biden and move his message completely to the next term. He should have painted a picture of his second term and what his policies would mean for the average family. As much as Trump throttled Biden the rest of the time, that would have been the dr...

re: Rohan Davey deserves to have his number retired
Posted by bazeball on 6/12/24 at 2:10 pm
I think the next jersey that should be retired is Kevin Faulk's. He was a factor from day one. He was an All-American. He came to LSU when they were at their lowest point. He stayed all four years. He came back and coached after a stellar NFL career.
RD was good, but #3 was legendary....

I stumbled across one of his Comedy Central clips years back and started following him. He is tremendous. His podcast, Nateland, is great.
Definitely watch his Netflix specials, starting with his episode on The Standups.
This is from SNL that he hosted: https://youtu.be/JYqfVE-fykk?feature=sha...

It's good to have a mix of traditional IRA and Roth. Think of Roth is 100% owned by you while traditional is 20% owned by the government (or whatever your tax rate will be).

re: Bama offering full ride. . .vs paying more to go to a better school

[quote]Bama offering full ride[/quote]
This term is often overused. Most people take it to mean that the student is attending the school for free. Is that the case? I've heard parents say that only to find out they must pay $15k/year for housing. Of course, going to Bama also means that the kid w...
re: Does LSU not give a crap about smart, in-state high school students?
Posted by bazeball on 3/25/24 at 9:26 am
I've worked with a few kids over the past few years with nearly perfect high school scores and grades. The best outcome, in my opinion, is for these students to attend the best school they can get into [i]without going into debt[/i]. The sweet spot is getting a truly full ride with stipend at a top ...

No - you don't have to fill it out.
