re: How did Alexandria come to be known as Ellick?

This is the answer. In BR they say AL-lick when pronouncing Alex Box Stadium, in Cenla they say Ellick
Jim Hawthorne was from Anacoco, and for decades the primary way to experience LSU baseball outside of the stadium was via his radio calls. That probably explains why even Baton Rougians tend to pronounce it ""EL-ick Box" or "AL-ick Box" now.

UF did make a final four with Lon Kruger who was an amazing coach. It is crazy to see Tennessee and Ole Miss doing so well. They were doormat teams most of my youth.
They also won the SEC in 88-89 under Sloan. I remember Dwayne Schintzius (RIP) always gave us fits.

Most of my friends who went there are successful and happy. It basically allows you to coast through undergrad because it is all review.

Please tell me you didn't graduate from LSU. Tigers don't live in Africa, and everything else about your comments completely misses the reasoning as to why this stunt will make it difficult for LSU to get future tigers and could cause the vet school to lose accreditation.

re: SEC Championship Game Tiebreaker
Posted by LSU03 on 10/16/24 at 2:29 pm
quote:
E. Capped relative scoring margin versus all conference opponents among the tied teams. Formula will include a cap of 42 points scored on offense and 48 points allowed on defense.
E. is crazy! If you win all of your games by 7 points, and lose one 48-47, but the other team wins all of theirs by 7 and loses one 60-42, this will be a "push." Also, any game that you win where your opponent scores more than 42 points actually produces a negative margin of victory.
Example: team A wins 42-41 against Team C on a last minute field goal in regulation. It gives them a +1 point differential. Team B gets tied by Team C 42-42 on a last minute field goal and then Team C kicks a field goal in the first OT because they start in fg range but Team B's defense steps up. Team B scores a TD to win 48-45. Team B gets a -3 point differential as if they had lost the game that they won by 3.
re: EV charger for my house?
Posted by LSU03 on 10/14/24 at 11:23 am
Unlike Tesla, GM and Ford can do V2H powering of your house in a power outage, which was my main reason for going from 40A to 80A. The GM V2H enablement kit is pretty expensive, so the 80A might be overkill for the OP.
The other reason for 80A is to future-proof it if he decides to do the V2H thing later, regardless of manufacturer.

Don't cheap out on it. Spend the extra to get an 80 amp breaker installed with a surge protector on that breaker (they will have to run a 100 amp rated wire). Purchase a charging station that will deliver an 80 amp charge, and you'll be topped off in 5-15 minutes after a days commute, and less than 4 hours if you are getting back from a long trip at close to 0.
The 40 amp is fine 99.9% of the time, but the 80 amp takes away any and all worries about home charging speed.

Stop with the disinformation! This is obviously a video of Mike from 1935, not 1933. PVC was invented by Chancellor Mark Emmert in late 1934, and the stadium pvc is clearly visible in the background.
