True.... but I guess you dare not speak ill of good players. Not my fault he's in a slump but keep down voting for speaking the truth.


The "truth" isn't always a necessary discussion when players aren't playing up to their potential. Most fans get how slumps work and maybe we'll share our feelings amongst friends.
But for some of you "telling it like it is" publicly on Tigerdroppings is part of who you are and for some reason you feel empty unless you do it.

What it really says about you is you don't have any friends to talk to in real life.

You'd think LSU Fans would have a certain perspective and respect for this young man's struggle and his path to redemption.

And who are you?? This is my husband you are referring to. A man who sacrifices his time away from his own family to teach and mentor his band students. He loves his students and worked his butt off and truly enjoyed his job. This was/is very devastating for him and our family. Maybe think a little next time before you make such a nasty comment - especially behind a keyboard.


This is definitely where I parked my car and it needs to be moved to the OT.

You will get some much better feedback there.

ETA: I just realized who your husband is and That man is an outstanding father and inspiration. Keep on grinding and y'all will persevere.
And don't let these fricktards bring y'all down. :bow:

Data analyst

It has helped me immensely with coding. i never used to use it either but got stuck on a query at work and just typed what I was looking to do and it spit out the complex query language I needed to get the results I was looking for. Something that would’ve taken me an hour to figure out on my own just took typing in a question and copying and pasting the results it provided. I was impressed and have used it for simpler queries since just to speed up work.


I'm in the same boat but i usually get the answers by typing question in to google. I will try it.

Sharon and Ozzy have talked about that incident. He didn't know it was real and was horrified afterwards. and had to get the rabies shot like that sexy little Vixen in 1923 had to get. :lol:

I remember my dad saying his friend in the 80’s had a device on his brand new car that increased his gas mileage 10 fold. When he brought it to the dealer they quickly whisked it around back. When he got it back the device had been removed, and the car got its normal crappy gas mileage. Looking back that was bullshite, but back then we believed it. Any similar stories?


Holy shite i just heard that same story about a current GM truck. Some super secret computer hack to the chip could triple the gas mileage by changing gear ratios.
I know these chips can alter ratios and improve performance or mileage.

but triple? :dunno:

I still don't fully understand the rules of Rugby, but some of these dudes would absolutely kill it playing football in the US.

In fact, it would probably seem like a cake walk to some of them having all those pads and a break after every play




Its easy to assume the best ball carriers in rugby would make an NFL roster as a RB but it's really hard to beat all the college running backs trying to take those same roster spots.

There’s a rugby video game that absolutely sucks arse


The one for the PS2 back in 2001? Yea that game caused me and my best friend to almost have a fistfight. I did throw my controller and a small ice chest at him after he cheated a 3rd time by making a long arse skip pass from fly-half to the wing that wasn't even visible on the screen when the pass was made. Glitch usin cheatin' MFer. :lol:

In a football game that's the equivalent of blindly throwing a hail mary to streaking receiver that neither your nor your opponent can see on screen.

We laughed about that incident a couple weeks ago at a crawfish boil

No shite. We were out there yesterday from 10am. Redneck and the fam came out and sat with us in LF. They made it 8 innings with a toddler.
The weather was fine if you had sunscreen and waters. Nice breeze for most of the game too.

PSA to everyone. The Box has two bottle filler stations that are fast AF and the water is cool. You can bring in a 32oz bottle of water and refill it all day. Y'all ain't gotta pay a dime for unlimited water in the Box. :thup:

We gave Texas 1 of their 2 losses, not to mention it was on the road. Also, we nearly won 2 out of 3 at Texas on the road. Maybe we are the 2nd best team in the nation. This series proves to me we can compete with anyone.


Shhh. Just quietly look at the stats and let Texas keep rolling into the post season peacockin like they are the best team in college baseball.

They are set up for an epic failure like our 2013 team. Their fans just don't know it yet. :lol:
Antigua told me "frick you" and "eat a fricking dick" when I tried to recruit him today between innings.

FYI I sit on the front row of 124 and when Tennessee ran to our wall and back I would stand at the fence and tell them how much we respect them and would love to see them in Purple and Gold. :lol:

9/10 of them laughed and appreciated the testament to their talent.

But #2 was awfully mean and I yelled back "you're all welcome in Baton Rouge except for #2. He's not very nice!"
The funniest thing was two teammates right next him turned around and gave me a nod and grin of approval.
It was all in good and respect for Tennessee players but he was being a little bitch aka product of Vitello.

One thing I love about the SEC is how everyone comes together to honor our armed forces whether it's a dedicated seat to our MIA/POW at Kroger Field in Lexington Kentucky or the Soldier Salutes at Alex Box.

Jay mismanaged and overthought this series so much. 2-0 6th inning, you bring in Evans (like he is comfortable doing). This was a legit horrible decision and criticism should be had. He didn’t even get out coached, vitello just let Jay over coach

You're stupid. Vitello Lost Game 1 by pulling Doyle. We got spanked in game 2 and we spanked them in game 3.
End of story. I was at all three games from beginning to end. You don't know shite.

I'm reading this book right now. It's written by a clearly Liberal dude but it's very interesting shite we never learned about in school.
quote:


On November 6, 1860, Abraham Lincoln became the fluky victor in a tight race for president. The country was bitterly at odds; Southern extremists were moving ever closer to destroying the Union, with one state after another seceding and Lincoln powerless to stop them. Slavery fueled the conflict, but somehow the passions of North and South came to focus on a lonely federal fortress in Charleston Harbor: Fort Sumter.

Master storyteller Erik Larson offers a gripping account of the chaotic months between Lincoln’s election and the Confederacy’s shelling of Sumter—a period marked by tragic errors and miscommunications, enflamed egos and craven ambitions, personal tragedies and betrayals. Lincoln himself wrote that the trials of these five months were “so great that, could I have anticipated them, I would not have believed it possible to survive them.”

At the heart of this suspense-filled narrative are Major Robert Anderson, Sumter’s commander and a former slave owner sympathetic to the South but loyal to the Union; Edmund Ruffin, a vain and bloodthirsty radical who stirs secessionist ardor at every opportunity; and Mary Boykin Chesnut, wife of a prominent planter, conflicted over both marriage and slavery and seeing parallels between them. In the middle of it all is the overwhelmed Lincoln, battling with his duplicitous secretary of state, William Seward, as he tries desperately to avert a war that he fears is inevitable—one that will eventually kill 750,000 Americans.
