re: What motivates people to live above their means?

Posted by TigerFan1977 on 4/25/14 at 1:20 pm

It seems to me that many place a high value on material things, much more so now than in previous generations.

ULL isn't going to the WAC. Period. LA Tech going Independent in football and playing other sports in the Southland would hurt their athletic program more than they realize. As far as a C-USA invite......don't hold your breath. C-USA is interested in media markets. What does LA Tech have to ...
