re: How about bo pelini?
Posted by 1970tiger on 1/17/20 at 10:41 am
I do not want to get into any argument about Aranda.
But I wondered why no one brought up Pelini.
FYI Last year Aranda had him come to BR to show Aranda and the staff how to defend the RPO and the spread offense....

I know things change and game times are driven by TV.
But there is a point about tradition.
It is only with the advent of ESPN and the SEC Network that other SEC teams play at night. Until then most, including Alabama played during the day. The only time other teams played at night if there ...

I did not read the whole posts.
But no one ever discusses that property taxes by law have to go up. The $75,000 homestead exemption does not apply to municipalities. It only applies to un incorporated portions of Parishes.
Art VII Section 20.(A)(9) dealing with the Homestead exemption States:...

What don't you understand. It is a losing case for LSU,

Christianity is not the oldest religion in the world.
Judaism is older by centuries and Hinduism is probably also.
What some people fail to realize is Judaism and the Muslim faith both worship pray to the...

The Constitution says the State can't make someone put in ear buds to make you feel good about praying to a God they don't believe in,
What people fail to grasp is the Constitution protects the minority from the majority.
Just like the majority can't take away your guns, or shut up, the majo...

It will be stopped and it has nothing to do with progressive conservative fight like people try to make it. It is a Constitutional issue.
LSU is a state agency. The Constitution prohibits the Federal government and states from establishing a religion.
This was done so that the government could no...
re: Good article about Maravich and the sons he left behind.
Posted by 1970tiger on 11/13/14 at 5:13 pm
I was on the Athletic Council and had a few classes with Pete the second semester of Pete’s senior year. He stopped coming to class after basketball season (Everyone knew he would be the number one pick.)
Back then if you missed 3 classes they could kick you out of school. LSU did that to Pete. ...

I think may be part of it. He is trying to run a program within the unwritten NCCA rules. But the BAMA boosters are committing violations and he can't control them.

re: The new BCS playoff is why Saban will leave
Posted by 1970tiger on 12/11/13 at 10:23 am
I have been thinking this for a while.
I know there is SEC bias on the rant. But why do people think a non SEC Champion will make the playoffs over a Conference Champ. I know it is only a consideration, but I have a problem with people from other conferences or areas of the country doing this on...
re: Paul Finebaum on Sportscenter: Alabama officials increasingly nervous
Posted by 1970tiger on 12/11/13 at 9:49 am
It was said several time Texas has all the money it wants. The Bama people never understood this. I have clients there and do a lot of business in Houston. They donate whole wings to hospitals, schools, etc. There are subdivisions in Houston and I am sure Dallas, Austin, San Antonio that the propert...
re: Saban $20 mill in hole due to bad real estate investments w LSU and Bama alums

Last year or the year before an apartment complex in Houston went into Bankruptcy. Spinosa (the same person that developed Perkins Row was the promoter on the complex,) Saban was a partner personally liable on the debt. I think he guaranteed part of the bank note. It was $10 million. (you can check ...
re: Evidence showing the SEC schedule bias for Alabama and Auburn
Posted by 1970tiger on 7/25/13 at 10:06 pm
The scheduling and what goes on in the office affects all the teams in the SEC. How would Ark fans feel if the beat Bama, and lose to Fla and another west team. Bama does not lose to Ky & Tenn or any other west team.
Bama goes to the championship game because it only has one loss. Ark stays hom...

Posted by 1970tiger on 7/25/13 at 9:51 pm
Youv'e got to be kidding if you think Bama can match Texas, I am having trouble thinking of another fanbase that is as wealthy. Hell they UT fans could put him in a few oil deals each year that would top serveral million. Not to mention TV deals in Texas due to its size.
Also he could dominate th...
re: LSU, Gators and Vols carried Bama for Years
Posted by 1970tiger on 7/25/13 at 11:08 am
I was talking purely from a financial prospective in the 50s & 60s of when a team went to play at LSU, Fl and Tenn. I did not mean to limit it to just Bama.
Back then they split the gate. Also there was no sharing of TV revenue, and there was only 1 game a week on TV.
Here is a break down of ...
re: Les Miles Won't Call Plays This Season
Posted by 1970tiger on 7/25/13 at 9:02 am
The problem has always been the people on here want LSU to have this wide open offense that passes almost every down. The problem is that doesn’t usually win championships.
I agree as any head coach Les probably in certain situations says we need to do this or that. (Run time off. Let’s not thro...
