Hell you can go lower than that.
A guys whose career ended at Delta State ran for over 450 in a Mississippi 5A (highest at time) game to set the state record (and had gone over 400 a game or so earlier) only to never be heard from again. It's pretty wild how exponential the talent difference gets at these levels.

For one, this has nothing to do with that guy's story, but in Bo's defense he averaged more yards per carry. Henry had over 300 more carries (A machine :lol:)

Why is the algorithm giving Arkansas heat for this now? This has been on the books in Texas (and likely other states) for probably a decade.

Such as:
Where are you coming from?
Where are you headed?
While at LSU, me and the boys got pulled over doing 67 in a 60 (I-12) at 11pm or so. (BRPD protecting the other two cars on the road).
The cop probably thought he had an easy DUI case but tonight was not his night. As I was going to convey a level of pathetic he couldn't handle.
"Where are you headed?"
"Walmart"
"For what?"
"To buy the new Mario Kart for GameCube"
"You're free to go"
Then we got hammered back at the dorm.

One of those events that was all over the news that no one remembers even happening but it was pretty insane.
Then all the ISIS stuff started happening in Europe in the mid 2010s.
I keep wanting to watch the movie but haven't brought myself to it considering how messed up the situation was.

re: 2026-2027 Ski Thread (The Rebound)
Posted by Teddy Ruxpin on 8/14/26 at 8:57 pm to Mahootney
Ya perhaps, I tried to pick high altitude/snow making resorts.
I considered Obergurgl which is the most snow sure in the area, but it wasn't as easy of a handoff. As I improve and they improve and get more self-reliant, I'll focus less on the assistance and classes.
Yup, and once I could use points to fly there it was a no brainer. Went to Lisbon a few days before skiing. This time I'll do Munich and then after skiing drive across Austria to Salzburg. That way you get the "Europe" experience and the skiing.

I've priced it out in the past, Europe and North America ski trips are roughly the same cost from anywhere in the South or East Coast.
It's kinda nuts really.

Club Med
If you got kids under 10, Gran Massif and Les Arc Panorama are the most kid friendly. You'll want to check in at the beginning of the week because the classes start at that point and end on Friday. We did Gran Massif. For an all inclusive buffet situation, I think it helped having French chefs. Can't complain.
Schlosshotel Fiss
This is what I'm doing next time. They are building out their kids area to add things for older kids that will be ready by 27/28 winter.
There's some other pretty cool ones around Austria depending when you go. Using AI to find these hotels is very useful.

For last March, we ended up in France because the pricing in the US with flights and all was stupid expensive. So I used points to fly us to a ski in ski out Club Med in the Alps which was awesome for kids. Group ski lessons included in the room rate for adults and kids (whether you use them or not is up to you), all inclusive food, and the kids club had its own locker room and suited the kids up for their lessons while you are already on the mountain. I think it's something people should seriously consider monetarily.
Anyway, liked that so much trying Austria this coming March in Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis. Won't be a Club Med but I think I found a similar setup.
For the record, I'm just learning to ski myself so we'll see how I hold up and bust my arse on my first descent with the big break.

re: LA28 Olympics
Posted by Teddy Ruxpin on 8/13/26 at 1:14 pm to DandyPimp
I visited LA for the first real time for the US - Paraguay match and it can be a lot to cover.
I think my plan is to fly into San Francisco for a couple days, then head to Yosemite etc and end in Los Angeles. Stay in Pasadena for soccer and towards Sofi for swimming.
Might want to consider moving your hotel around as you go.

I ended up getting into the drop a few weeks ago and got Women's Soccer Gold Medal game and then Sunday swim finals.
Not cheap but way easier process than the World Cup cluster.

Wife and I spent this past January in Sevilla, Spain
It rained almost every single day and the weather was 40's-50's on average straight through.
I guess I got lucky but I was there around NYE years ago and it was pretty in both Barcelona and Seville. Sunny all day, maybe a light jacket unless you were in the sun light which got you hot enough to take off. In Seville, cold at night in the 40s.
This really depends on what OP is trying to do. I might want to save vacation in Spain/Portugal for a period that's more suitable for kid activities.

The number of missiles hasn't grown. This is ballistic range. I also think a bit of context is lost. Iran said before this started its missiles had a certain range. We found out they lied when they lobbed one at Diego Garcia. That missile launch proved their range could reach Europe.
