So your argument against a 20 dollar an hour minimum wage is there is an entity that uses it by choice and produces better outcomes than competitors as a result?

9 SEC games is still dumb as hell because of the toll it takes on these player's bodies.
Sankey should be toast based on that stupidity alone!
The interconference portal nonsense, atop that, should be icing on the cake. Sankey is an effing clown!

Overall I think the rankings are fair.
:rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

NotreDame's schedule thus far is

Wisconsin

Rice

Michigan State

Purdue

North Carolina

Stanford

BYU

THEY LOST A GAME with that schedule, and are ranked #4 in the Nation!! Are you effing kidding?

They should have at least moved to 8-10.
Indeed.

What's the gripe? I'm not saying I disagree, because I haven't really studied it, but just wondering.
LSU is #7 nationally in total offense (1st in SEC).
#1 Miami is the only Top25 team ranked higher.
#2 BYU is 49th. #4 ND is 35th.

LSU is #3 nationally in total defense (1st in SEC).
#4 ND is the only Top25 team ranked higher.
#2 BYU is 13th. Miami is 16th.

Now time will tell, but Bama being several spots ahead as a 2-loss, seems out of kilter. Regardless, we get a H2H with Bama.
Bottomline, LSU 100% controls its own destiny.
It's a tough road, but doable.

LSU has the 3rd hardest schedule in the country from here on out.
If we win out, we'll be hosting in the playoffs.

True. But don't be the person attempting to make a point without facts at your disposal, unless that person was a plant.

Regarding the Muslim Brotherhood, El-Sayed's half-sister, Eman Abdelhadi, wrote on social media in 2012 that her family had long been associated with the Muslim Brotherhood and described family involvement in the organization in the early 1970s. El-Sayed claims that is irrelevant, and refers to the claims as "hearsay." Meanwhile, his mother worked for a terrorist organization. Based on that, the questioner's response would be, "Your family by its own statements claim affiliations and work for terrorists. That is why I asked. If you denounce the MB, tell us why."

El-Sayed equates the Israeli military and Hamas as no different There is no way to justify that POV under questioning.

El-Sayed has called Israel's actions in Gaza genocide. That is a stupid statement which would be disassembled in an exchange.

El-Sayed refuses to answer questions about whether Israel has the right to exist at all.

His response to the March 2026 synagogue attack was that violence is bad but rationalized it, saying "hurt people hurt people."

He's elected to campaign alongside Hasan Piker which is the equivalent of a candidate campaigning alongside David Duke.

Bring those points up in the exchange, and El-Sayed would be in major damage control mode.
That's why I suspect the questioner was a pro-Dem birddog.

BYU at #2 is beyond obnoxious. There are 10-12 teams that on a given Saturday would stomp that team into a mudhole. They have one remaining game vs a Top 25 team. SMH

They’ll be on an emotional low.
Perhaps, but I think that's overplayed. Auburn won the Georgia game because (a) they were rested coming off a bye, and (b) Georgia was beaten up after a brutal game versus Bama. They will still be the fresher team this coming week vs LSU, and they will be sky high at home.

But your second assessment is spot on. In the preseason, pundits had us losing against Auburn as a potential letdown game. That possibility is eliminated by LSU's absolute need for a win, and the fact that Auburn just beat the number one team in the nation.
quote:

We won?
Texas made the same call against Florida that you insist would have won the game for LSU vs Kentucky. How did that work out for Texas?
quote:

What was their officiating complaint? I only caught the last 2 minutes of the game
Maybe you only watched the last one minute and 59 seconds?
quote:

How bad does not going for the yard vs Ky
About as bad as Steve Sarkisian's decision to go for it with three minutes to go in the second quarter versus Florida, in a virtually identical situation.

Kiffin was not counting on Baker allowing Kentucky to go the length of the field against a milquetoast defensive scheme.

If Kiffin had gotten the same result as Texas did, going for it on a fourth and one, people would be going nuts about the stupidity of the call, just as they are with Texas.

It is what it is.
quote:

they’ll have to beat the best ... that will include the refs and the commissioner.
I suppose you meant "in addition to", but to be clear, the SEC refs and commissioner are as far from the best as "far" can entail.
Sankey, and his 9-SEC games, is an effing imbecile?

After I saw the AU O-Line workouts in Fall Camp, it seriously looked like Auburn wouldn't win an SEC game. Given the material he had, Golesh has done an impressive job IMO.

Not in this instance.

It's more a man like watching his wife getting very friendly with a rival of his. For years, he repeatedly warns her that if she persists, he will clean her clock in court.

She ignores him, continues her dalliances. In a surprise move, he hires the nastiest divorce lawyer on the planet to take her to court. He sues for custody of the kids, the house, the savings, etc. Suddenly, the two are in a protracted court fight neither expected.
