[quote]Oh, please. Allow me:[/quote] All I'm saying is you can't have an average and take out what doesn't prove your point! Averages don't work that way. And besides, it appears that our best offensive production came against better competition (UNC, UA, Ole Miss, Arky & TAMU) 341 ypg doesn...

re: New soda fountains at Fuddruckers

Posted by DoubleDeuce on 7/29/11 at 11:35 am
They're cool and all, but the line backs up because no one knows how to use them. I'm 30 and I find them confusing. Imagine standing behind a 70 y/o lady trying to get a regular diet coke. FYI...Basically it has a touch screen that allows you to pick standard drink options and add additional fl...

[quote]I believe someone told Rosetta something to make him think that so he posted it. that in and of itself doesn't make it true.[/quote] Rosetta was probably digging around trying to find out why Shep was held out of the Media Days. This is what he came up with. And LSU compliance is figurin...

Going through it right now in Houston. I would shop around. Get all of your financial information together first (W-2s, tax returns, pay stubs and bank statements). It depends on how complex your income stream is, but if it's straight and to the point it's pretty simple. My income is rather comp...

re: Pageonce v. Mint

Posted by DoubleDeuce on 5/25/11 at 1:07 pm
I don't know, but Mint has really dropped the ball. Did Intuit buy Mint.com to kill it and force us to buy their software? I've been a loyal customer of Mint since 2008 and now all of a sudden it doesn't work anymore. I get tons of duplicate transactions and it really screws up my budgeting. ...
Call Wells Fargo. You ultimately may not use them, but they can show you what you qualify for, $ needed to close and interest rates. And it's no-hassle and free. I called them when I was thinking about buying and they sent me a 'Good Faith Estimate' along with down payment info and such. I ended...
What do you want to know? You could just go sit down with your bank and they should have a mortgage specialist you could talk to. Not all lenders are created equal, but just do a quick google search and you should be able to find something. FYI, I'm a first time home buyer under contract an...

re: MBA and School Attended

Posted by DoubleDeuce on 3/24/11 at 1:46 pm
I'm interested in the OP's topic, but in a differing light. What's the general consensus in the value of the MBA? Obviously it depends on industry and individual circumstances, but how do most with the distinction feel it benefited them. It's hard to poll MBA folks because you have no clue w...

Mortgage Questions?

Posted by DoubleDeuce on 3/9/11 at 8:57 am
I am an independent contractor that, by my CPAs instructions set up my business to be taxed as a regular corporation and pay myself and my wife a salary. I am looking to get a mortgage and have started to get information from various lending institutions and it can be difficult to really figure out...

re: Bought a House in 2010

Posted by DoubleDeuce on 2/8/11 at 3:53 pm
You really need to take a real estate investing course. Even if you sell this house for $420k you profit nowhere near $50k. You put $20k in renovating. That brings you now down to $30k. I'm going to assume you have a mortgage and it's a 30 year note. So if you got a descent deal in 2010 aro...

[quote]Jefferson will start, and finish, because he is the better quarterback -- stronger, faster, tougher and more experienced, than Mettenberger.[/quote] What experience? You are now faced with learning an entirely new system and not to mention you are probably up against a BETTER quarterback ...

Krags at OC & QB Depth Chart

Posted by DoubleDeuce on 1/21/11 at 8:16 am
Is it possible that Krags comes in and by the start of the 2011 season Jefferson is the 3rd QB on the depth chart? We've all seen Jefferson in a pro-style, drop-back passing style offense and that is what Krags is bringing. What ever happens, it's going to be interesting to see where the QB pl...
This has a lot to do with Mathieu, Reid, Brooks and Baker playing a lot on defense and when it comes time for kick coverage they have poor effort. When all they did was cover kicks it was maximum effort every kick and now they have to actually conserve that energy. Contrary to popular belief no ...

[quote]This is a problem that bars many from being intelligent. To get ahead in life you have to take risks, sticking with the status quo never gets people ahead in life nor football.

[quote]You clearly don't watch college FB.[/quote] The comparison I always get when I defend Les Miles is... "Do you want another Larry Coker?" And my response is: "Do you want Randy Shannon?" You have to careful what you wish for. Since bagging Coker Miami has struggled to get themsel...
I just love all the negativity going on around here lately. I agree he was an idiot, but Les Miles is Ryan Perrilloux away from having his likeness bronzed outside of Tiger Stadium. This team is one player away from being great. It's not an excuse, it's just reality....

re: Question about PMI

Posted by DoubleDeuce on 10/26/10 at 2:12 pm
[quote]If you are financing more than 80% of the purchase price, yes.[/quote] That's incorrect. If you are financing more than 80% of appraised value. There's a difference. If he purchases the house and finances @ 210k and the house appraises for 300k then he would not have to have PMI. P...
