re: 2019 LSU defense was scrappy

That Ole Miss game drove me nuts. That damn Plumlee looked like Milroe that night. Couldn’t get him down. Good thing the offense scored at will. Fortunately LSU D started getting healthy by getting Queen and Stevens back for late-season run. Ask A&M, Ark, UGA and OU. ...
I love how this kid plays with the ball in his hands. Super athlete. But he’s also a tweener and the coaches don’t know how to fit him in. Sorta like HPerkins on defense. Heck, I’d like to see him as a change of pace QB. Dual-threat, wildcat, or whatever. He will more than likely wind up in ...
Duckworth just pissed she didn’t meet the standards for a free Tunnels To Towers home. ...
What is the reason for so many kickers, college and pro, now hitting 55+ FGs with regularity? The last 5 years or so has seen an explosion of these young cannon-legs. Weight training, better techniques, the footballs? I mean, we’ve always had some big leg guys but now it seems every team has ...
But he would be an elite running back. ...
I was having a good time pulling for Henry tonight until I read this thread. Hoped he would reach 200. So many insecure Bama fans when it comes to anything and everything talent related. Henry was better than LF7 in college and has turned out to be the better pro. He’s awesome. Why can’t you...
“Almost home” field advantage. Like UGA in Atlanta and LSU in NOLA. ...

Imagine having your playoff hopes laying with a Team like the Jets, which is happy to lose to sew up the top (?) draft pick. ...
Taking into account the reports of the Oct 7 atrocities and the fact Israel is a nuclear nation, perhaps Gaza/Hamas has gotten off easy. Kinda surprised tactical nukes have not been used. Probably only US influence has prevented such escalation. ...

re: How Powerful was Carlos Marcello?

An old fishing buddy of mine from Abbeville was a cousin of the Marcelo family. He would just smile and say it was true and had heard a lot of fascinating stories. I really didn’t want to hear them. Yes, Marcelo had a lot a lot of ties to Abbeville. Vermilion Parish has a lot of open marshland w...
I imagine the NOLA council will just name Sharon Broome as interim and then voters will reelect Morial. ...

A simply “cool” movie? True Romance ...
OP, are you a combat veteran? If you have not actually fought in a war, it is difficult to say what is accurate or not. I served in Vietnam as a Marine grunt in the Khe Sanh area in 1969. Wounded twice. No movie has yet to capture the total visceral fear of combat. The adrenaline dump is har...

re: 2025 Cold snap protection plans

Not sure how effective but my dad always suggested that if the freeze isn’t prolonged that flushing your toilets a couple of times during the night helps keep the water moving through the system. Long freezes require more attention. Also, running your heater higher than normal heats your slab st...
NFL playoffs could be interesting. No domes in Kansas City, Buffalo, Green Bay, Philly, and Pitt. Even DC and Baltimore could get dicy. Good thing Detroit and Minnesota are indoors. ...
Uh-uh. Newly minted Buckeye here. ...
Will Kash cash in, that’s the only question here? DC lobbyists have unfathomably deep pockets. Would make A&M and Texas football boosters blush. Fortunately Elon has just as much. Maybe he can keep Kash focused on cleaning up this FBI mess. ...
