By filing a lawsuit against the State of Louisiana, the buyout, should CBK win, will be paid with taxpayer money, not booster money. LSU has two options

There is no mechanism to require the state of Louisiana to pay any judgement against them. The legislature would have to vote to appropriate the money but they aren’t required to vote yes. So the judgement sits in limbo until it can get out before a vote and pass. New Orleans is the same way.

Go look at the backlog of lawsuit payouts the State of Louisiana still owes. Go look at the backlog of lawsuit payouts the city of New Orleans still owes. Even if he wins it would be a long long time before he would get out - if ever.

The lawsuit as many people have said here again and again is all posturing for a settlement. He’s looking for a judgement that LSU did. It fire him with cause so that he has more leverage.

BK sued the Board which is effectively the state. They have to include the state attorney general’s office.

Patient? If he’s hired before the end of the season and we lose a game some idiots on Facebook will be blaming him for the loss.

Second John Marston.

Bonus is he’s young so you don’t have to worry about him retiring in 10 years and have to find another doctor.
Yes.

This lawsuit is positioning. They will get the court order that LSU cannot fire for cause.

Then Bk can comeback to the table with more power in the negotiations. The negotiation will agree to a lump sum (or something like 4 short payments) and will be about $40MM. LSU will remove the offset clause and the requirement to find work.

LSU gets - lower payment
BK gets - lump sum, no offsets, no work requirements.

Isn’t all knitting “3D”? And someone’s grandma can make that in an hour while watching Judge Judy.

They already terminated him for non-performance. It is an idiotic look to now claim he hasn’t been formally terminated but we are terminating him for cause


Yeah I agree. I understand using different tactics in negotiations of the buyout, but this argument is completely idiotic.

Morality clause. That one may be hard to actually get him on though unless he was banging her in the athletic offices/buildings.
What are you wanting to use it for?

If you mostly grill hamburgers and steaks, a pellet grill is not your best option and you are going to be underwhelmed. While you can grill on them, it’s more of a side feature that you can make work vs its actual function. (Although the Recteq FirePro series has bridged the gap some)

Where pellet grills are better is low and slow/smoking. If that’s what you are looking for they are great.

I’ve had a bunch of them. an old Traeger, a RecTec (before they changed to Recteq), a Grilla Grills, even a cheap Zgrill. They all basically work the same, but you are paying differently for build quality, quality parts, etc.

Now I use a Masterbuilt gravity that I like for smoking and just use my Weber performer for grilling. The Masterbuilt gravity is just easy since it uses charcoal and I don’t have. To buy pellets. But it works just like the others.

My kids private school in Baton Rouge doesn’t charge students to go to any games


What school is that? Because I know for a fact PBS and Dunham do. St Michael’s did as of 4 years ago. Hell PBS did when I went there in the 90s.

You may need to look at your fee schedule. There is probably a line item that’s an “athletic fee”. That’s your charge for the year and it allows your student to get into every athletic event on campus. .

That sounds about right with Catholic...


It’s not just Catholic BR. I’m pretty sure all private schools in BR charge their students to go to games. Most have some kind of season pass type thing for their students.

We would be naïve to think that a school would want the police involved.


It really should have been reported twice.

The school had a duty to report it. And her parents should have reported it.

Attorney Miller said school leaders at Sixth Ward Middle School failed to address the girl’s complaints about the circulating image, despite her reporting it to school leaders.


Why wasn’t it reported to the police?

Because the county law enforcement having the data and it being publicly available are the same thing?


Well the judge sure thought so.
quote:

On Thursday, a Skagit County Superior Court judge ruled that pictures taken by Flock cameras in the cities of Sedro-Woolley and Stanwood qualify as public records, and therefore must be released as required by the state’s Public Records Act, court records show.


What’s crazy is the county argued against the FOIA release because it would be an invasion of people’s privacy.

So their argument was that they can invade people’s privacy by recording everyone but can’t let taxpayers see it because it’s an invasion of privacy.

The last time I checked, churches don't normally stock baby formula.


They don’t. They also don’t have food pantries.

Most will have food drives at specific times (like holidays) but they don’t just have a random warehouse of food that they are hoarding just to deny people assistance.

If it’s real also would have likely a much better response by going in person to the church office and not just cold calling somewhere.

Second MT...it was surprisingly fun. But, you have to buy in. No being "too cool for school."


Yep. It’s all what you make of it, but it’s a good time.

And the food is surprisingly OK. It won’t win any awards, but it’s way better than I expected.
