re: Open the roof at NRG

Does seem like a weird waste.


It’s a massive waste.

Seen it in the upper 60s and sunny here with the Texans playing at home and the roof is shut.

You’ll hear things like “the players like it closed.” Fine then….just should have built a fixed roof.

Doesn’t get talked about enough. Awesome movie that was so realistic, the NFL wanted nothing to do with it.

For the 10,000,000th time for the idiots in the back: WE ARE NOW REQUIRED BY THE SEC TO PLAY 1 P4 OOC GAME PER YEAR. So you don’t cancel one to turn around and have to replace it, paying both a buyout and a hefty sum to lock down a new opponent.


Yep. Not only is it in place, it’s been that way since 2016

What a shitshow.

Saw Sleepy Joe projecting Altuve at 2B and as mentioned earlier Yed at DH.

So if they move Jake, are we looking at an OF of Sanchez, Cole and Smith? Dear God.

ETA…ZDZ and Melton in the mix too.

This prospect is right up there with when Costanza had the deal on the table to get Griffey and Bonds in the same OF.

Game wasn’t competitive at all Ohio never left second gear after halftime. You clearly didn’t watch the game.


It was a one score game with 4 min to go.

If you don’t think that’s competitive then you don’t know what you’re talking about.

I think with the 9th sec game, the sec is no longer doing the typical bullshite cupcake game late November. I assume all cupcake games will be in September or mid October at the latest.


At the very least, don’t allow 3/4 of the conference to do it on the same weekend. The weekend of 11/22 was abysmal.

Why have classes and divisions?


Sheer number of schools

I still think too many teams make it though. In 6A (maybe 5A too) 4 teams from each district make it. Regardless of the order of finish, the top 2 enrollments are D1 and the other 2 are D2.

I think below 5A they divide up by enrollment before the season.
Thing is, even the Ole Miss angle is a smokescreen for these writers. Bottom line is he left for a job he wanted more. Doesn’t matter if it was for money, greater chance of success, or he likes the food better at Parrain’s. Sure the timing sucks but the nature of the job dictates that he takes it now.

The same will be true if one day he leaves LSU in the same manner and the same timing for another school. Media is just angry they can’t dictate to people what THEY think they should do. Much like what they do in general.

The fight with Larry Holmes was one of the best I ever saw. And it hardly ever gets shown or talked about.

Talk about styles making fights. He gave Ali fits but was destroyed by big punchers…Foreman, Shavers, Cooney.

I didn’t even know they did that.

Paredes



So a guy (I know he was banged up, but he still played) who was able to play in September will POTENTIALLY be ready to go by opening day? :rotflmao:

Also, saw another blurb that Yordan “is expected to be ready for spring training.”

:rotflmao:

This organization isn’t serious.

But that scene in the first Porkys where the P.E. coach is shagging the howling chick in the gym with all the sweaty socks and jocks is probably the single scene in any movie that I've laughed at the most. That fricker had me crying. My guts hurt for the rest of the day from laughing so hard.


When the other coach realizes what is happening, his reaction is gold.
quote:

Shut the frick up, Dana. Just shut the frick up. Everyone reported you tried to trade him


He’s starting with the bullshite early. I guess he figures if he keeps it up year round the fans will just become numb to it.

So we’re just going to turn Paredes and Walker (and I could see Correa being part of this too with he and Paredes spelling each other at 3B) into part time players?


quote:

He said he doeant want yainer being a DH as much but having more full days off.


Outstanding. All the days off last year were a key contributor to our low rate of injuries. :cool:
quote:

From where I sat, it looked like the field goal split the uprights.


I still think he made it.

They had the shorter uprights back then. Made it harder to tell.
quote:

The Padres were basically the Astros of the NL. Pretty average, low strikeouts a bunch of singles, low power. Cool.


Worse team OPS than the Astros.

Astros and LSU hiring processes are equally trainwrecks.
