Mackinac Island is perfect for a one-day visit — take the early ferry, bike the perimeter, hit Arch Rock, and enjoy the bluff views before grabbing lunch in town.
Stayed 3 nights on Mackinac Island. One day is way too short. Went to sleeping Bear dunes, soo locks, shipwreck museum, Tahquamenon falls, picture rocks, Kitch-iti-Kipi Glass bottom boat. All well worth it.
re: College sports is officially a dead - Sorsby Eligible

But, they are compensated with a free education, stipends, etc. As for the transfer rule, how can they force an athlete to stay at a school? I guess they can force them to sit out a year, but I'm not even sure of that. Any local judge will immediately make that athlete eligible .
As far as transfers, the NFL calls it a contract. They sign a 3 or 4 year contact with a team and they want to “transfer” after a year or two - “nope”. The lack of an enforceable contract is the one thing that is making college sports garbage right now. Teams need a commitment to a team for a reasonable length of time or chaos reigns.
No 2025 CWS teams made it to Supers

In addition to that, four 2025 CWS teams didn’t even get into the 64 team tournament. How times have changed.

This ruling invalidates ANY authority the NCAA has. I said it in another thread, but like with everything, this will soon filter down to high school sports. GPA requirements, kids cut for not being good enough back on the team.
College sports officially died when the transfer portal and NIL took effect, fans thinking otherwise are just in denial. College sports are actually worse than pro sports now, No contracts, no salary cap, no consequences. Players moving from team to team with billionaires throwing unlimited money at them.
re: Has This Season Shaken Your Confidence in Jay?
Posted by da prophet on 5/15/26 at 3:39 pm to AlwysATgr
Yep, you’re not being honest if you say not at all. In this age of immediate portal transfers and NIL, Jay did a horrible job this year, which has to be at a minimum a little bit concerning. Moving forward the possibility of this happening again will be in the back of every fan’s mind whether you admit it or not.

When you score 8 runs in a SEC weekend series you should win in the vast majority of games. This team is horrible at giving up a lot of runs late in games. I would be willing to bet if you swap out eight runs for LSU in every game under Maineri or Lavel, you wouldn’t have a season as bad as this under either coach.
re: Trump: ‘Will someone please tell Pope Leo that Iran has killed at least 42,000 innocent,’

Don’t like this pope or the last one. Their global hypocrisy is staggering. Crickets on the October 7 massacre and torturing hostages. crickets on Iran killing 40000+ of its innocent citizens.
re: Trump EO to curtail NIL
Posted by da prophet on 4/4/26 at 3:03 pm to Out da box
This is exactly what would correct the majority of the problems. The transferring to several different schools every year is killing college athletics. Basically it’s just the NFL on steroids (constant free agency - no consequences, no contracts). A kid should choose a school, then get to transfer once if it isn’t a good fit, thinks they’re worth more, etc. without sitting out a year. Kids going to court to play more than 5 years is also absurd. Are we about to see 10 year college athletes. What’s to stop an NFL player from going back to college if he can get more. Just got to court for more eligibility.

To be fair Arkansas may not be that good this year.
There is a common thread here. Both LSU and Arkansas were in the CWS last year and are having down years. Seems the portal timing has affected both. The portal opening needs to be moved back so CWS teams aren’t negatively affected.

Always blame the Republicans. All you need is for like 6 Dems do the right thing vote for the current bill that has been voted against by the Dems. The current bill is actually a compromise including things the Dems originally wanted. As usual the Dems move the goalposts to suit them with no regards to what it does to Americans. But like always most don’t hold Dems accountable for anything.

To pass for a bill for funding Homeland Security/TSA? Can’t it be used for budget related items and only requires a simple majority.

You can’t negotiate with evil.
Dems would let this go on forever.
Dems just don’t care how it affects Americans. TSA lines causing unbelievable delays and missed flights, Dems could care less.
Millions of illegals pouring into the country committing crimes and bringing drugs, and stressing city resources, Dems loved it.
If Republicans didn’t compromise this would just be the new normal for air travel, which would really suck.
Dems hate Trump and they want Americans to suffer and will go to great lengths to achieve those objectives.
Natty winners in the transfer era post covid
Posted by da prophet on 3/21/26 at 7:05 pm
In the five years not one made it back to Omaha. Miss St and Ole Miss had terrible teams in 22 and 23, LSU was mediocre in 24, Tennessee made it to a super and got swept in 25, LSU in 26????, but it doesn’t look good so far.
Just a guess but maybe a coach’s concentration is on winning the natty and his transfer analysis suffers.

re: Joe Kent: "Iran has a Religious ruling against nukes."
Posted by da prophet on 3/20/26 at 10:26 am to cajunangelle
Their religion doesn’t allow strip clubs (wink, wink) but it says they can have as many wives as they want and they probably abuse them. Their religion views women as sub human. Their religion allows them to send their wives and children with a bomb strap to the to blow themselves up. Their religion allows them to kill anyone that isn’t Islamic. That’s not culture that is totally sick. And Joe Kent and Tucker believe these people.
For reference Israel’s religion doesn’t allow multiple wives and they treat women with respect. Israel doesn’t strap bombs on their women andchildren. Sorry Tucker I chose Israel on this one.

You can downvote all you want but:
1. Supposedly done to save football FAIL
2. Violations were so terrible - NIL started immediately after that and made Wade’s activities look like a gigantic nothing burger. FAIL
3. Woodward’s true reason for firing Wade was because he didn’t like him. Petty excuse if he’s a good coach and the fans like him, it’s a business. FAIL
