Mondo and his brother both represent (and represented) LSU with class and dignity! How the hell is he a traitor(sp) to LSU?
As a matter of fact, he broadens LSU's footprint in sports to another country... his mother's country. The country that pays him substantially more and treats their track and field athletes with more prestige and respect than the US. Would you tell your son to stay in the US and earn less in his career bagging groceries when he could make substantially more in another country?
It's a big world out there, and you can find a dictionary in it somewhere.

Did she share any recipes or makeup tips while she was spouting her nonsense?
Otherwise her opinions are worthless to almost 100% of the population.
It's an opinion only a mama's boy would like and an opinion that no one agrees with who has a drop of testosterone left in them.
Let me guess what her take is on trans women (men) in the WNBA.

This is acceptable, but I still don't like the idea of retiring numbers as some type of honor!
I think it's more honorable for a future tiger great to say, "I'd like to go to LSU and wear #9 because my favorite player is Joe Burrow." I think all players should WANT their numbers used as recruiting and marketing for themselves, for LSU and for future players looking at LSU. It shows an active level of connection to the team and school that goes beyond a number taken out of circulation. If a future great player wearing #9 makes a great play, it would give me positive vibes not bad ones.

The C&D isn't about LSU not being able to issue #5 to another player.
It's about LSU no longer being able to use Jayden's likeness for advertising, promotional, or commercial use.
Does this mean LSU should hold off on any future plans for a statue of JD? I mean you can't get much more NIL than that!!!

seems like EVERYTHING is getting outrageously expensive. We are in the market for a new SUV and it's making me feel poor.
Big vacations are a luxury, and over the last few years have required traveling together and sharing expenses with close friends or extended family to reduce costs.
I'm just thankful that I have extended family and good friends I can travel with and my kids get along with their kids!

re: USA Soccer is Regressing
Posted by Cracking on 7/8/26 at 7:04 am to RockChalkTiger
I wouldn't say regressing, but stagnating. I don't follow soccer outside of my niece in high school and the World Cup, but the USMNT seems to scratch the surface of a top 15-20 team and just can't break through to a top 10 or 12 team with a real shot at competing with those teams. Other countries invest more into soccer at every level of the game from money to time and attention.
If US elementary, middle school and high school kids played soccer at recess and outside with friends everyday, the US would improve over the course of a generation and would be on par with top 10 countries. The kids in the US are usually playing basketball or football with their play time which delays development and limits our pool of athletes interested in soccer from a young age.
The top 10 teams and those that are competitive with them look like they all know what their teammate is thinking and work together as a team as if they've done it since they were 7 years old. It's just more natural/organic vs forced development with average players starting at some positions that wouldn't even make a top 10 team's roster.

As a casual, my observations:
1. The loss to Turkey was evidence that the team has no real depth after the starters.
2.The beat down against Belgium proved that the starters don't stack up against the top 10.
3. The offensive strategy against Belgium was mind numbing. They obviously couldn't penetrate the defense to take easy shots on goal, but instead of playing longer attacking passes/shots for potential corners and maybe rebound shots, they kept trying to control the ball and pass the ball through defenders to work the ball closer which 90+% of the time resulted in easy turnovers for Belgium's very good defense. The head coach looked lost.

I put small wagers on Ream and Adams to score and took a flyer on Pulisic to get 2 goals.

What prop bets or long shot goal scorers do you think are good risks?
I'm definitely not a soccer regular, but find the World Cup to be very interesting. I have no idea who besides the big names for the US could score and really no clue about prop bets in soccer.

Before getting my license, I watched HS football then went to a dance if it was a home game. Usually went to a friend's house to do normal teenage boy shite like video games or sneaking out to roll people or something goofy.
Once I was 15+ I was playing HS football, sometimes a late dinner with family after the game, and ended the night somewhere with girlfriend (movies or her house). I couldn't party after playing football. I was usually trying not to get leg cramps... Could barely enjoy my girlfriend without being in agony.
Saturdays (after working at Subway) were my party days.

A nice hunting camp on enough property to feel somewhat secluded.
I just want to be the grandpa who can bring his kids and grandkids out to the camp in the woods whenever they want so they can learn and do stuff. I'm really not a huge hunter or outdoors expert, but it's because I didn't have that growing up. I hope that I can provide my kids and their kids the experiences that I wanted and didn't have. Also, I hope it's a place for the whole family to get away from life and get into the woods to be together whenever they want.
