Most non-residential streets in South Florida are 3 straight lanes plus turn lanes. I’ve seen the roundabout around the Arc De Triomphe. It would never work here.

Why would Pyburn return to LSU to be a back up?


Undrafted rookies are always a long shot to make the active roster. Practice squad players make less than $250K. I’m sure it’s a backup plan in case he doesn’t make the active roster.

re: Miami hits 100!

Miami pretty much has a tropical climate - those places don't hit 100 oftent because the high humidity caps the temps - they will have 100 degree hit indexes all the time and their night time temps will be really warm


Atlantic offshore breezes and frequent afternoon thunderstorms keep the temperature down below 100 in the summer but, yeah, the humidity is the killer. Mid 90’s in the middle of day isn’t what the problem. The problem is when it still in the high 80’s and the feels like temporary is still over 100 at 10:00 PM. Back in the early 90’s when we had a shitty NBA team and were getting an a MLB franchise, the joke was, we should call them the Florida Marlins the Florida Humdity. Then we could talk local sports and say, “It’s not the Heat that suck so much as The Humidity.

Maryland 42

Miami led Maryland 31-0 at halftime. Frank Reich came off the bench and engineered what was, at the time, the greatest comeback in college football history.

So still not something any of his teammates have said.


Nope.I’m sure most of his teammates would have done the same thing.

quote:

Anyone who doesn't understand why he sat out that game has got to be borderline retarded


Are you insinuating that I don’t understand why he sat that game out? I assume that he didn’t want to risk an injury that would jeopardize his draft status and the rookie contract associated with draft status to help his teammates win a game? Am I wrong? Does that make me borderline retarded? Or did you believe this bullshite …..

“I'm never worried about an injury; you can tell by the way I play... I felt like I gave college football my all... I don't want to selfishly take away from [LSU and quarterback Garrett Nussmeier]... I felt it was my time to move on, and it was his time to show... what he can do in the future.”
quote:

Not something I think I have ever heard any of his teammates say about him.


I’ll say it. I will say it about any healthy player that sits out a bowl game. Doing that is purely all about one’s self. Tell me how it’s anything but that.

That’s the first thing that crosses my mind whenever they talk about her running for President. No matter who the Republican candidate is, Rubio or Vance, either one is gonna make a few baws here happy because they will proverbially “undress” her in front of a national TV audience.

People can be positive. But in this thread you have people comparing Sam Leavitt to both Joe Burrow and Jayden Daniels. Might be a little premature, no?


You do realize that “comparing” 2 football players isn’t the same thing as insinuating that they are equal in talent, potential, performance or whatever? “Comparing” is how you would analyze how two things are completely opposite as well as how two things are similar.

How much of the time since 2020 has Tua been concussed?


2020 - 2026

QB Games played Sacks
Justin Herbert 95 225
Baker Mayfiled 93 221
Russell Wilson 77 223
Joe Burrow 77 213
Geno Smith 69 196
Daniel Jones 70 192
Lamar Jackson 85 189

Tua Tagavailoa 78 141

As a team, the Dolphins have given up the 20th most sacks since Tua enter the league. McDaniel built his offense around Tua's accuracy in being ably to get the ball out of his hands quickly to some of the fastest playmakers at their positions in space. Tua's problem is that he's made of glass and doesn't know how to protect himself either through shitty pocket awareness or even by the way he goes to the ground after being hit.







quote:

Miami didnt get fricked by Tua, they got fricked by not protecting him and trying to change their entire offensive philosophy every season.


bullshite. McDaniel offense didn’t change and 18 other QB’s have been sacked more than Tua since he entered the league in 2020.

Back in the late 90s when UPS first became a publicly traded company, a lot of their employees became rich overnight. I was good friends with the UPS driver who did the daily deliveries to my work. Of course, I never asked how much he made, but I do know he bought a very nice house on Lake Guntersville and retired by the end of that year despite being in his early 50s


The IPO was on November 10, 1999. When UPS was a private company held only my management and directors, stock awards were about 15-30% of managements total compensation depending on the pay level. UPS stock would split every few years. Managers were strongly discouraged from ever selling the stock and the fact that it paid a great dividend, made it easy to hold on to. The IPO made a lot of multi-millionaires out of mangers who had started in the 80’s.

There's also a risk to going the JC route. Mac Marshall tried to go that route in 2014. He originally agreed to a $1.5 million signing bonus but got screwed by MLB's draft pool rules. Went to JC instead of LSU, signed for $750K the following June draft and never collected a major league paycheck. Granted NIL at LSU wasn't an option then. But there was also the possibility that he gets hurt or just never develops. As it was, the latter occurred and professional baseball does what they do.

Then again, the #2 player in that 2015 draft told MLB teams 3 years earlier that he wouldn't sign if he wasn't taken in the 1st round. He wasn't and decided to spend 3 years at LSU eventually signing for a $5.9 million bonus. He will retire with more than $300 milion in career earnings.

What if the honest answer to the question a witness pleads the 5th to would provide the examining attorney with information that could be used to incriminate the witness for something that wasn’t covered under a pardon?

re: Tommy Tanks 4-4 tonight

Posted by LSU82BILL on 7/29/26 at 12:31 pm to
As far as I can tell, Tommy is only the 2nd player in the Modern Era to record multiple 4 hit games in the first 10 games of their career. The other was Bo Hart of the 2003 Cardinals whose 4 hit games occurred in games where he had 6 AB and 8 AB in those games. Tommy was 4-4 and 4-5 in the games where he recorded 4 hits.
