Lmao because this is so appropriate and funny as shite. Best Rant response I’ve seen in a minute.

Unfortunately, we that give a shite about this are in the minority apparently because CFB isn’t listening to us. They don’t hear that we no longer care for the sport like we once did. And it doesn’t look like it’s affecting advertising and viewership much.
They don’t mind catering to the younger generations who dont share our history with CFB. It will never be the same and many of us will continue to feel disjointed from the sport vs at one time being connected at the hip with it, living and breathing it with it throughout the years. Fts

re: Looking for bridge recommendations.

I’ve got 2 creeks in SW MS totaling about 3 miles and on the larger one, the water regularly rises 8-10’, and sometimes 12-15’, and at a very high flow rate. It would wash everything off the top of the culverts unless it was 100 rip rap or larger. I’ve got one large wooden bridge that I had to anchor with posts into concrete because water would move it.

Like some have said, it’s about span and what you need to bring across it. For log trucks, a low water crossing is best IMO. The USCOE has a good design online, but 300#, then 100# rip rap with gabion on top, 2” under the normal low water level in the stream, with similar structure on ramps. Most importantly, use geotech fabric under rip rap. 18x24 creosote beams with 3x12 .80 treated lumber deck works for trucks, tractors etc up to a 25 foot ish span. And a 40’ float trailer works too for pick ups, up to 100hp tractors.
Culverts are famous for blowing out in floods unless you really rip rap the hell outta them on sides and top. Small rock is gonna disappear in flood.

re: Retirement Account Goals?
Posted by PlaySomeHonk on 8/18/26 at 9:41 pm to Lsut81
There are several good retirement planners out there that you can do yourself, and I’d recommend doing it yourself. I’ve found Fidelity to be the best I’ve encountered. I retired in 2017 at 55 and still piddle with some minor income consulting stuff but mostly living on corporate and municipal bond yield and now SS for dinner, wine and bourbon budget))
I’m heavy into real estate with 2 homes and 400 acres in SW MS and a bayou place on Bayou Terrebonne. At some point hopefully in the distant future, I may liquidate some RE when it gets too much to frick with.

re: Dunking Hoop on Sideline
Posted by PlaySomeHonk on 8/17/26 at 7:03 pm to ThreeYYYz
It’s a hoop that’s low enough for almost anyone on a football team to dunk with their pads on. That’s what it’s there for; a dunking hoop. You’re welcome for breaking it down for you.

Will be legit angry af if this has anything to do with why Harlem Berry missed practice today. I'm sure it's unrelated but can imagine the fury if it was from dunking in a scrimmage
Think about it, wtf would anyone want players subjected to potential injury, especially from a missed dunk like yesterday, and dunking with pads on, in the heat of the moment of celebrating during a damn game?
re: Retirement planning: Your Health—physical and cognitive capabilities
Posted by PlaySomeHonk on 8/17/26 at 10:59 am to Everyday Is Saturday
My path was somewhat parallel to yours and I’m 65 now. Been retired since 55 but been active taking care of a farm and fishing camp. I’ve always eaten pretty healthy but stopped playing sports around the time I retired and don’t enjoy running, especially in this heat. I live in the country so no clubs nearby.
I recently decided to build a multi sport court at my home; basketball, pickleball and volleyball. Waiting on quotes now but it looks like it’s gonna run around $40k, which I will gladly invest for the health ROI, not to mention the fun for me and family who all love sports.

I have no allegiance to Moscona, but who would you rather watch or listen to for practice and team updates? Serious question.
Not mentioning any names, but the guys on the local pay site are very amateurish. And the AYS guy hollering is as bad IMO.

Tredez dunking on an 8’ goal just ain’t that special. He can windmill on a 10’. I will like the 21 tho)

TreDez can dunkorama on a 10’ goal. Is seeing him dunk on an 8’ goal really all that special?

Posted by PlaySomeHonk on 8/17/26 at 9:15 am
Moscona said that the hoop will be on sideline like OM did last year. I thought it was lame then, and lame now. He also said he was told Berry missed his dunk yesterday after his TD. Fts

RC has become the Al Sharpton of supposed sports inequities and I have as much use for RC as I have for Sharpton.
re: Opinions needed on deer processing
Posted by PlaySomeHonk on 8/15/26 at 11:39 pm to SCwTiger
If I were processing, here’s what I would advertise:
Your deer will be below 40 degrees F all of the time. Machines will be cleaned between customers, and your product will not contain any other deer; you only get your meat.

re: Pond algae and weeds, best solution
Posted by PlaySomeHonk on 8/15/26 at 11:31 pm to GREENHEAD22
It all starts with alkalinity and proper depth and slopes off the bank. Then fertilization with high phosphorus/low nitrogen pond fertilizer in the growing months. The goal is 16-24 inches of visibility on a seschi disk, which indicates a proper level of plankton. This keeps the sunlight limited, which inhibits weeds, and the consensus of biologists is that up to 10x of the fish can be removed from a properly fertilized pond vs a non fertilized pond.
re: What sleep meds work for you?
Posted by PlaySomeHonk on 8/12/26 at 2:49 am to lsu xman
Exercise, no caffeine after the morning, no sugars late at night, prayer, sex, AC on high, dark rooms comfortable bed, quality clean sheets, good pillows. Like Mellancamp says, an honest man’s pillow is his peace of mind.
re: Explanation for “Piped-In Music”
Posted by PlaySomeHonk on 8/12/26 at 2:32 am to The Hurricane
Thanks for furthering my point. During the game, between plays and timeouts is when the band traditionally played, along with the Tiger walk, pregame and halftime of course. But the atmosphere during the game was heightened by the band to something that cannot be recreated by piped in rap, which actually detracts from the atmosphere IMO.

I hate to sound like the old guy bitching but there’s 2 reasons why I no longer have tickets and attend the games and the DJ/Bass/Rap which detract from the damn fine band from TL and the tradition of Tiger Stadium.
LSU has done surveys on this but nothing seems to change. Fts

re: Educate me on game cameras
Posted by PlaySomeHonk on 8/10/26 at 10:35 pm to YbTexas
I’m a dealer for a hog control company that sells texting photo and video cameras, but I’m not selling here…just offering input.
Yes get the same manufacturer and you can have all cameras on the same AP and website. My cameras and some others allow multiple users either as admins or guests.
Pay attention to the monthly data plan costs; there is a wide range of costs.
Make sure you get live shots, not a consolidated upload of shots one time a day for shots across the last 24 hours, unless that doesn’t matter to you.
Several companies sell t post mounts for cameras with a 1/4” female threaded connection. The rechargeable, sealed battery box also mounts on the t post mount.
My video cams and Spartans work like this. You get motion pics, within the trigger intervals you set and at any time, you can manually go live, triggering the live video. Maybe others do as well?
I’d always set the motion trigger intervals at very short durations so you don’t miss anything, but you can also set the camera to take photos at certain times too. Each brand may be different, but that’s my brand which is Jager Pro. Spartan is basically the same camera, but they may not be able to manually take a photo on command….they previously could not do that, but maybe they can now. Jager Pro cams can do this.
