They could be pre-positioning in the Kurdish area of Iraq to secure any nuclear sites if the Mullahs fall.
Why do we want Greenland? We already have a base there and full military use.
Part of the Venezuelan military taking on Cubans protecting the Bolivaristas.
Fort Bliss and a couple state national guards have them. They will deploy for some national events like a Superbowl or presidential inauguration.

Mobile Patriot systems.

Back in the 60s there were Nike Batteries near every major coastal city and base. There are YouTube videos of people exploring a couple of them.
15 or so will go in to the portal every year because they have been passed up and won't start so they transfer to find a starting spot. Look at the LSU defensive portal entries. They are visiting group of 5 schools.

CNN is reporting the streets are quiet and this feels like Ukraine at the beginning of the war there.
If Maduro is so innocent, why did Biden and Obama give open asylum to Venezuelans.

We already left. They just went in, arrested him and his wife then left.

The explosions were airdefense systems. Probably maned by Iranians or North Koreans.

Venezuela doesn't have a functioning professional military. Just cronies and thugs. All the professional stuff his done by Cubans, North Koreans, and Iranians. Russia promised them support with their Airforce but not against the US.

They are pre-programmed to help the team wearing red.

Frank, like BK believes in hard work and paying your dues over talent and ability. Good luck Ole Miss.
BK paid someone else. If LSU had his outside blocking, maybe he is still coaching.
I wouldn't think Indiana or Texas Tech fans are losing their love for the game.
I have no problem with these guys getting as much money as they can. Any college football player who doesn't end up being an NFL starter will make more in college than they will in the pro leagues. Many of them will end up with injuries that will always bother them.
Rich guys are way more entertained by watching an athlete win games than a smart kid taking a math test or presenting his term project.

What happens when a coach (BK for example) signs a bunch of offensive linemen and guarantees to pay them each a million dollars per year for 3 years.


BK was overpaying to keep guys. All the LSU starters want to be paid the elite rate. LK has a year to year philosophy and especially this year is not paying anyone more than he thinks their worth just to keep them. The agents are telling these guys what they want to hear. Some of these guys will end up with less some will get more.

It seemed like spears struggled in run support. Overall, he is a pretty average safety. He will have to compete for a starting spot if he comes back.
There are distributors. They try to sell out with discounts the days after the holiday and they give extras to people who work the stand.
I have a family member who is a starting guard at a lower end p4 school. Next year he is getting 200k plus 10k per month in NIL. He has to do stuff for the NIL money.

Based on what his dad told me about other guys on his team, those numbers look correct.

If you are planning on going during hurricane season, Aruba is a good choice since it is out of the hurricane belt.
