They are independent. When events are independent you multiply the probabilities. (1/52)*(1/52)...

[quote]Their offense is anemic. Their is ZERO ball movement. They cant even set a proper pick. It's worse than watching the NBA. It's all 1:1 garbage. Same thing happened the other night. They hit 3s in the 1st half but then got tired and could not create and hit tough shots. Rick Barry should be as...
re: How many times have you been summoned for jury duty?
Posted by ortiz1193 on 3/20/17 at 6:44 pm
When I was 20, I served on a jury for a double homicide. There was a strong self-defense case but the other jurors weren't having it, and he got charged with manslaughter. The other charge was clear manslaughter. The trial was pretty intense - they even showed us pictures of the inside of the dead g...
LA Tech vs. UAB basketball mass ejections
Posted by ortiz1193 on 1/26/17 at 10:05 pm
Small fight, but everyone cleared the benches and got automatic ejections.. All assistant coaches ejected. Tech played the last 5 minutes with 4 players.. UAB had 6 players. ...
re: do they still have academic competition "rallies" in Louisiana ?
Posted by ortiz1193 on 1/25/17 at 1:48 pm
They still have literary rally for a bunch of different subjects. There's a district competition and then the top scorers qualify for the state rally. I don't think you get scholarships for winning anything at state though. Maybe LSU gives a small state rally scholarship since they host it, but no o...

This summer I was visiting a friend at the University of Alabama. We're standing on a patio at an apartment near campus, and this dude just runs straight off the road, rips a speed limit sign out of the ground and sends it flying, rips some other nice looking posts out of the ground. He and his girl...
re: Gamecocks 85 LA Tech 76 - Final
Posted by ortiz1193 on 11/11/16 at 7:51 pm
It was an enjoyable game except for there being a foul called 8 out of every 10 possessions. Silva was a monster at the end of the game when it was close. I'm expecting us to be top 2 or 3 in CUSA, so we should be a decent win for you guys. ...
re: Louisiana Tech non-conference home basketball schedule is atrocious
Posted by ortiz1193 on 11/6/16 at 10:43 am
I would argue that we have such a high winning percentage in the TAC because we don't play anyone OOC with a chance at beating us. We just have to win 1 or 2 tough CUSA games at home every year to rack up a 40-game home winning streak. ...

I had never heard of Maryland Eastern Shore until I looked at the schedule.
Also, Tech beat LSUS by 30+ last year... I vaguely remember a bunch of tiny white guys running around, but I might be getting them mixed up with Millsaps....

I saw The Descent in middle school and was absolutely horrified. It's the only movie I've seen to legitimately scare me... I was afraid to look outside the rest of the night
I also think I saw some scenes of Nightmare on Elm Street when I was like 9 and that also scared me a lot...

Official Crystal Healing thread

I was recently introduced to the scientific field of "crystal healing." After the shock of discovering such a rare scientific discipline wore off, I began researching, leading to the discovery of this youtube channel that has everything you need to know about crystal healing. https://www.youtube.com...

Merge LSUS-Tech-ULM, and put some of the saved funding into BPCC. That's the best solution for the Shreveport area imo....
