Can we all just take a moment to appreciate just how good of a coach Jim Schloss is?
I mean from what I can tell he’s a tool but dang it his teams are always immediately better when he’s on the job

LSU better not take this one lightly.
The Pokes are VERY physical and throw a lot of big funky arms at you. LSU is obviously the better team here but they are not to be trifled with

Name me 8 better SEC ballparks.

The only thing making this close to not being bottom half is the addition of UT and OU. Finally expansion helps LSU out

1. Baum Walker
2. Dudy Noble
3. Swayze
4. Bluebell Park
5. Founders
6. Lindsey Nelson
7. Plainsman Park
8. Floridas new park

If we’re strictly talking looks nicer and we ignore capacity then you can go ahead and add Vandy’s park to that list too.
I’m not confident at all.
I’m pretty sickened by it in fact. I’m not rich at all. Midddle class built a nice nest egg but it’s getting hammered. My only solace is that I have time to recover

owners. Might be a bad owner, but sounds like a nice guy.


May be a nice guy but they don’t make money on parking because their location does t allow for them to have their own parking facilities very easily

It does seem insanely risky, though. Hopefully, markets settle down soon.


It has much more risky implications than the markets.
It is if you’re talking about culture.
No one on this board will say it because it feels too much to them like they’d be admitting that the conference is close to the SEC in quality of play (it’s not).

When you consider location, competitive balance, what sports are valued, and the relative quality of play it is SEC lite

Good news is that it’s working

The biggest misconception out there is that the government prints money. With the establishment of the Federal Reserve, the government no longer “owns” our currency. The Fed is NOT a part of the government. They are a conglomerate of the biggest banks, with significant influence from the government, who print Federal Reserve Notes (dollars).
So when you hear “printing money” the Fed is adding the number of notes available in the market.
When you hear “borrowing money” the government is receiving a loan from the Federal Reserve.

Obviously there’s a LOT more to it but I’m just trying to talk about the Federal Reserve’s role in our currency management
It’s only unreal on TigerDroppings
Normal baseball people recognize that baseball is a long game, that guys tend to improve the longer they are in a good college program, and they know that the biggest jump is usually Freshman to Sophomore year
I grew up in the 80s-90s. Where I grew up there were 100s of men who left for a week or 2 or a time to work offshore in the oil and gas industry. That industry is now dead. Those were really good high paying jobs. They also gave young men out of high school or college a great place to start their careers

Is he still greater than Griffey jr?

No in my opinion

Nah...This man is a DeSimp. I never realized he spent that much time campaigning for Ron.


Wait a second. It’s now a bad thing to support the best governor in the country?? Guys Trump is NOT a god. He’s a fantastic president, but not infallible.
As a guy who was there rooting for the Cajuns, it was alarming how much smaller they are than McNeese!
Now I’ll say, I am impressed with the Pokes big time. A lot of big funky arms and a scrappy physical team at the plate.
NIL era is really taking its toll on this version of UL athletics- across the entire sports spectrum
You mean to tell me that when you let the players run the program it doesn’t work out well?

re: Clay Higgins Supports CR

Posted by Quatre Pot on 3/9/25 at 3:04 pm
All of this DOGE work and the EOs that was so applauded during the address last week are nothing more than political theater until an actual bill is passed and actual charges are filed for the fraudulent behavior. If a CR is passed for one week it’s a failure of government and a breech of trust by the Republican led congress
Just want to go on the record as noting that THERE ARE 2 SEPARATE Mardi Gras in Mamou.
2 very different and VERY separate celebrations
