LSU can lock down every school in Louisiana, but the caliber of players are beneath the big 3 states:


1a - Florida
1b - Texas
1c - California


Louisiana's caliber of athlete is excellent. The sheer number is just much lower because of obvious reasons, the population density.

If LSU locks down Louisiana they'll be a top 10 team every year, but yeah they'll still need to pluck a few from TX and Florida which hasn't been an issue for any coach here.
Recruiting is much easier in Louisiana. The right coach can pretty much lock down the state. In Florida you're competing against Miami and FSU right off the bat.

I mean, he got the bag right? Seems like it worked out for everyone but UCLA.

For some reason, people act like daily marijuana use is perfectly fine.

It has negatives.


I partake in THC edibles on the weekends, only when I know I won't have to work the next day. I don't see how anyone could be a functioning professional using marijuana daily. I think it parallels well with alcohol use. Almost everything has negative side effects if it's abused.
I have MLB TV to watch Padres games. I much prefer that over national broadcasts.

I've done worse than Swaggart. Anybody else want to throw their two cents in? Swaggarts issues were child's play. I was a Hellion.

Most or this board has been a hypocrite, backbiter, slanderer, etc. in some way or another. But they gonna beat up a man for being a man. That's why we need Jesus, folks.


Sure but I'm not up here calling myself a man of God or telling people how they should live their lives. If I was I'd hold myself to those same standards.

It’s highly unlikely that meaningful political change could happen in Iran under the current conditions. The leadership, particularly the Supreme Leader and the clerical establishment, maintains an iron grip on the country. The military—especially the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)—is deeply loyal to the regime and acts as both an enforcer and a power base. Meanwhile, the media is tightly controlled, and online discourse is heavily monitored, with dissent quickly suppressed.

Over the past decade, the government has systematically dismantled or absorbed any oppositional political movements, civil society groups, or reformist factions that could pose a challenge. Any attempts at organizing dissent—whether through protests, political activism, or online campaigns—have been met with arrests, censorship, or worse.

If the Ayatollah were to die or step down, power wouldn’t automatically shift to the people. More likely, the IRGC and hardline clerics would consolidate control, potentially ushering in a military-theocratic regime that’s even less tolerant of dissent. In short, the current structure is designed to ensure continuity of control, not democratic transition.


This is ripped off from ChatGPT. At least take the dashes out dude, that's a dead giveaway.

But is her saying this illegal? That's what FLTech is saying unless I misinterpreted it.



If she is encouraging service members to disobey lawful orders then yes there's precedent for criminal liability due to the Supreme Court case Schenck v. United States (1919). This case established that the government can restrict speech that poses a threat to public safety.

So if they're impotent why do we have to get involved at all?

And if they're still a threat why are we waiting 2 weeks?

I saw an online theory that the Adelson family is pulling a Rachel Phelps/Stan Kroenke and actively sabotaging the Mavericks so they can move the team to Vegas. That’s the only way this trade makes sense.



Vegas is already getting their own expansion team.
The golfers seemed to enjoy it, to me that adds to the appeal of hearing the off-cuff conversations. This league's viability is going to depend on how popular this is with the other pro golfers.

If more golfers get excited about it and want to compete, that'll draw more people in. Maybe they could have Korn Ferry Tour guys on, or some golf influencers to shake things up.

I liked it, I think it's clearly marketed towards a younger demographic. It's not supposed to replace real golf, we still have that Thusdays-Sundays.
Kelly, Rodriguez and Pfaadt are not special in any way at this point in their respective careers. You have a very good 1-2, be happy for that, but even Gallen has faded a bit over the past 2 years.

So you'd rather them pump up Texas, or Alabama, or Ohio St?

Some of you are weird. You complain when they pump up the traditional powers and you complain when they pump up the underdog story.

I think it's kind of a running joke. People call and write in with fake scenarios to get a reaction out of him. Maybe it is all set up though.
I don't think there's anything you can do that will suddenly snap him out of it. I was in the same place as him at that age, substitute college football for video games and bowling.

I'd stop paying for college and tell him he has to get a job and pay rent. The only thing that got me on track was having to get a job. From there I worked odd jobs, then went to the Army, then got out and went back to college at age 26 of my own volition. So worked perfectly in time.
