Forgot about him. Never did really care for him and his whole "How Bama watched..." schtick. How's he doing since Saban left Bama and they lost their super powers?

it was it's A Southern Thing that he regularly participated in

Almost forgot that's where Matt originally started. Easily the funniest guy from that.

I mean, I laughed at a few moments, but most of their videos are pretty meh now.

Sad to see Matt Mitchell being drug into this, because his videos are generally pretty funny and on point.

The one for this week had a great line at the end taking a shot at Michigan. He's digging through a box and finds a ref shirt, and asks if he can borrow it.

The "SEC" says sure, but only for a minute.

Michigan says great, but I only need it for a second.

This was my first thought.

Glad that wasn't a crazy thought

He graduated the year before I got to Barbe as a freshman, so it was fun watching a Barbe guy cut up in the SEC Championship and then NC.
I did 111 in 15 minutes last Friday...

So this the 96th All Star game.

The first one was played in 1933.

Can someone explain that math to me? Did they play 2 a couple of years or something? :lol:
While they probably didn't explain it, I'm sure the fact that the court date is mandatory has something to do with the fact that he was 15 over.

So a state trooper pulled someone over in a school zone without knowing school wasn't in session?

I mean, it definitely seems like something you could get out of if that's the case, but that trooper ought to get reprimanded. That's ridiculous.

Lowrie, a lifelong resident of Bossier Parish, is co-owner of Acadiana Mortgage of Louisiana Inc. and Acadiana Farms, where he actively operates a crawfish farm.

So either this ole boy is confused om his Louisiana geography/history, or he's one of those absentee operators.

Because Bossier Parish ain't in Acadiana...:lol:

Immediately skeptical of him if he was involved with Goins. Gonna have the LWFC discussing and supporting meaningless NOIs that won't go anywhere because the feds control waterfowl regs.

re: Anyone have an icebox?

My wife and--because of her--my kids call it an icebox.

Every damn time my response is "this isn't the 1930s, its a refrigerator".
Yeah, as others have said, I don't know what they are "proving" that wasn't already known. The whole reason they captured the last remaining ones and moved them to North Carolina is because of the coyote and crossbreeding. The entire gene pool of the red wolf was being erased essentially. Now the population is 80 or so individuals in NC.

There are still people that believe the red wolf wasn't a unique species at all, that it was simply a cross between another wolf species and a coyote. Part of the argument is their readiness to breed with coyotes.

I studied the literature on them quite a bit in college. I've always been fascinated at the fauna that used to occur here: red wolves, bison, elk, jaguar.

Way back in the day, we even had Mastodons and American lions.

No. This state is loaded with dim bulbs on both sides who can't comprehend the amendments and don't bother to put in the work to research the pros and cons. As a result they vote a blanket "No."

You will see many on this board who proudly post that they vote "No" on all amendments.

Could also be that people vote "no" because its absolutely asinine how many times we amend our state constitution.

I'm sure thats a minority, but why the hell does the state constitution have to be amended to address teacher salaries or the St. George school system, anyway?

Every tax proposal/renewal in Acadiana failed as well, and I have a hard time believing the two aren't related, or that that's most dems voting down taxes.

This is slowly happening

There is a proposed bill from Bill Cassidy to transfer the Kisatchie lands in Grant Parish to the police jury

True, but Mike Lee has tried this for years out in Utah with no success, and there's alot more support for transfer of federal lands out west than there is here. Those attempts aren't subversive.

But take management of a NF or NWR out of the hands of the federal employees, and continue to sniffle their ability to manage said lands with budget and staffing cuts--now you've created an environment where "the only logical answer is to give it to the people that have been managing it."

Which isn't the case at all, but now you've shown that it's the "locals" managing it, not the feds. Now you have public support for such a transfer.

What most people don't realize is that if you transferred all of the federal land in LA into state or local control, it wouldn't remain in their control long because they couldnt afford to actually manage it.

Personally, I've never deer hunted public land, but i think it should be available to those who want to.

It is available.

It just doesnt have the rifle season that private does, and for good reason--if you had the same rifle season on KNF as you do in Area 2, those deer would be getting hammered by every Tom, Dick, and Harry for 2.5 months.

You wouldn't have a deer herd very long if you did that.
quote:

That would be horrible for the waterfowl hunting

Yeah, alot of people will celebrate this, but if they don't at least have some restrictions, these places will be terrible very quickly.

Public lands need to have more restrictions on them than private. There needs to be a balance between true "refuge" and hunting (i.e., we shouldn't have 100k acre NWRs where hunting is prohibited). But I suspect this administration is going to overcorrect and have it wide open.

This feels like a subversive way to pass management off to the states, then claim that "well they are doing a great job 'managing' the land, so why should the federal government maintain ownership?"

At some point, the Catholic Church will figure out letting priests marry and have sex with women will solve so many of their problems.

Yeah, because married men can't be in the closet, right?

I've known men that were married to women, only to come out as gay.

It's not a "not allowed to marry" problem.

My understanding has always been that jetties/rock armoring don't happen near as much anymore because of federal agencies like NMFS opposing it because of interference with fish passage.
