DD14? Are you in middle school?
This isn’t a pro or anti vax thread. Just facts. My history:

COVID positive July 2020
1/2021 plasma donation - positive for antibodies
2/2021 plasma donation - positive for antibodies
Vax 1 - March 2021
Vax 2 - April 2021
No booster
6/2021 - full blood donation, antibodies “high” per new testing protocols
8/2021 - full blood donation, antibodies “high”
1/2022 - full blood donation, antibodies “high”

I did have a cough between thanksgiving and Christmas, but didn’t get tested. Was it Omicron or just a cold? Who knows.

Staying healthy by exercising 5x a week. Life is good.
My son just completed year 1 of LSU med Nola. Every class was on line, but every test was in person. The cadaver lab was on line, but is now optional in person this summer. He, of course, is doing that as are most. From what I understand, that is essential for anyone wanting to do surgery. The docs on here can speak to it better than I.
Despite the dumb line of questioning from OP, apparently there will be at least one 4 star QB. Some guy named Narcisse. We are not getting him back. Kind of like we didn't get that 5* CB Savion Smith back. Neither of those guys could make the 2 deep early in their career which is why they altered their path.
Read this morning he hasn't been at practice since 8/9. For a guy who changed positions, and at a position where we need help, it's not good that he isn't getting reps. Hope he isn't banged up too badly.

Is Cole Smith going to play this year?

Guy was underrated coming out of HS. He has basically lived the position and has has coaching at home. Does he redshirt this year or play? It would not surprise me to see him starting in the second half of the season, unless Cush surprises us.
From my brief read - former 5* from Georgia, played at Cal his freshman year, was on the team last year but injured and transferred to UGA last month. NCAA is not enforcing the rule that non graduate transfers must sit out a year. Unbelievable

Who are we sleeping on right now?

I say Kary Vincent. He was a little overwhelmed last year, but with a year under his belt, I’m thinking he will prove he belongs on the field a lot.

Aranda better be on top of his game

Because the Nola Advocate released an unofficial depth chart, and we are only playing 10 on D

LE, NT, RE
Buck LB, Inside LB, Outside LB
CB, S, S, CB
I agree defense wins championships, but to consider Alabama’s offenses as pedestrian is laughable. Their OL has been consistently amongst the conference’s best, they had several top WRs now playing on Sundays and even Alvin Kamara couldn’t get on the field because they have been loaded at RB, one of which won a heisman. What they have proven is that you can win without a dominant QB, provided you surround him with great talent.
Les was a great recruiter at one point. He got his arse handed to him on 1/9/12 and was never the same after. We should have beaten Bama in Nov 12, but Les got in his own way. We could have won the NC that year. He started recruiting for high profile...DBU and such. He converted guards to tackles which is one reason why our passing game struggled, but our RBs got their numbers. He left the roster so unbalanced. When he was fired there were more kickers on scholarship than linebackers. I don’t miss him at all and some of you need to get over it.

Orgeron was not a good hire. He has shown his weakness in managing a team. He was railroaded with and by Canada. At least he is balancing the roster and plugging glaring holes left by Les. He has to win big to stay. I’m a fan so I want LSU to win, and that is de facto supporting O. He is what we got. But, lose more than 4 and don’t let the door hit you in the arse.
since you asked when, I'm going to go ahead and say 2018
I see it almost everyday at the first light the north shore commuters come to when they reach the south shore. That's my turning lane into the Lakeway complex. They are too stupid to realize that they will catch up to traffic at the next light or two, as no one is entering Causeway going Northbound at that point.

Just curious, have you ever driven a corvette, or is this just a wet diaper post?


Forgetting the latter nonsense - Not since my dad briefly had a 1982 vette and I could drive, which was 1985/1986. I hated it, it was an automatic. I preferred his 280 ZX Manual trans and later the 300 ZX which was an auto too.

No, I’m quite comfortable in my decision to drive an Infinity, and a Lexus before that - both of which are/were sedans. If I choose to step up to a sportier car, it’s going to be either in the German offerings or even in the Japanese brands. No way would I spend money on a Vette. Even if I won a car as a prize and had to choose between a Benz, BMW, Lexus, Infinity or corvette, the vette would be last.

I dont see how anyone would pick a Corvette or any american made car over a mercedes benz or BMW. I usually see people with new money buying them.


Yep. Hell, I would drive a Lexus RC or Infinity Q60 before a Corvette.

If you are not bald, divorced or stuck in the 70s, there much better options.

I would need a new dust filter for my Hoover MaxExtract PressurePro model 60 - can you help me with that?
I upgraded a couple years ago to Nautica multi packs, but the quality of those appears to have declined. Not sure I want to make the Tommy John leap. Any other mid range recommendations?

For the non undershirt wearers - smoke em if you got em :dude:
