I think he could absolutely fix it and without losing more face than he already has, as long as his “handlers” allow him He could apologize to the Tiger nation and claim he was somewhat preoccupied when the C&D letter went out but he should have been more on top of it. He could say he’s sorry for the pain that’s been caused,he loves LSU and the Tigers, and he wishes the team the best. And he could top it off by warning DJ he better live up to the number (in a jesting way of course). And if idiots want to continue to hate him after that then that’s their choice. He doesn’t need the bad mojo

Update - you all convinced me. I got A&M.


Good choice. Hopefully it will be a night game but even if not the brutal summer heat should have broken by then. Maybe. I’ve never been a big fan of aTm but my dislike turned visceral after our 74-72 loss in 2018 in 7 OTs. That game nearly killed me

See you in September!
I agree with posters who suggest McNeese will not give you the best Death Valley experience. Which game would you want to go to? It may be that some posters here could help you find tickets for well below what they cost on the secondary market.

If I were you, I’d wear my UConn gear. That will identify you as a visitor but not a hostile one. Several years ago (our magical 2019 season I think), a couple of retired Oregon fans made it their mission to go to Game Day wherever it went and always were in Duck gear. They got total royal treatment at LSU. Admittedly that could be due to everyone’s really good mood that year.

A schedule will get published earlier in the week showing when the team and the band will come down the hill. Get over there earlier rather than later if you can to get a good view.

As another poster noted, the band goes in to the PMAC after it comes down the hill. I’ve never gone in there and don’t know if it costs (probably so) but I’ve heard others speak well of it.

As for parking, there are many entrepreneurs around the perimeters of campus that will sell you a spot in their yard or parking lot. I have no idea how well that works. Another option is my favorite bar/restaurant - The Pastime. It will be full of Tiger fans and Tiger memorabilia as well as great pizza and cold beer. But they’ll sell you a ride on a bus to the stadium and back ($10 last I heard). I’ve never done it so can’t vouch for how well it works getting out of the stadium but it works great getting there!

I hope this helps!

P.S. I also agree with the commenter who suggested you avoid Clemson. While the atmosphere will be unbelievable, the heat will be massive

I didn't know Skip got him in broadcasting


I attended an event honoring Coach B (I think it was his 80th birthday and “Hold the Rope” premiered) and had the opportunity to speak with Ben McD. I wanted to tell him how much I enjoyed listening to him and Lyn banter and that I noticed he lost his country bumpkin facade as soon as he got to the particulars of what the pitcher was doing. He pointed over to Coach B and said “that’s the man who started it all for me.” His love for the man was so obvious

No, he’s not. I see no “Jayden Daniels Foundation” in Baton Rouge. He did donate 100 bicycles in 2023. I do see the Joe Burrow Foundation continually active in the area focusing on mental health and food insecurity. I see JB’s parents actively supporting his philanthropies in the area. JD’s parents????

I hadn’t heard! How very sad

Is it because with no political background, he cant be controlled by the powerbrokers? He's dismantling their NGO money laundering schemes through USAID? He's deporting their future voting base?


Yes. Plus TradMedia tells them 24/7/365 that they must and they do as they are told by their masters. Good lemmings will do that!

That Oregon St game was weirder than you described. They actually missed 3 extra points that night. The last one in OT to eke put a Tiger victory But I remember the streakers after a torrential thunderstorm.


My husband and I were there with my in-laws, both OSU grads. If I remember correctly, their FG kicker was actually very good but I guess we spooked him that night. And then there was the downpour. Definitely a strange night but my in-laws we’re 100% good sports about it

It’s people like you, with this attitude, who make people like me really dislike New Orleanians. I dated a New Orleanian for a very brief time in college. On about my third visit with his family his mother referred to my as “country trash.” The woman literally had never traveled beyond the Greater New Orleans Metropolitan Area (she was less traveled than Ignatius J. Reilly’s mother) yet she called me, who was pretty well traveled for my age, “country trash.” We didn’t date much longer after that

U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright released the following statement regarding the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR):

“Earlier today, 32 member nations of the International Energy Agency unanimously agreed to President Trump’s request to lower energy prices with a coordinated release of 400 million barrels of oil and refined products from their respective reserves.

"As part of this effort, President Trump authorized the Department of Energy to release 172 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, beginning next week. This will take approximately 120 days to deliver based on planned discharge rates.


quote:

The latest release forms part of a broader strategy by the DOE, which had already loaned approximately 80 million barrels earlier this spring as Washington works toward releasing a total of 172 million barrels from the reserve.

The action aligns with a March agreement reached between the United States and more than 30 member countries of the International Energy Agency to collectively release around 400 million barrels of oil from strategic reserves worldwide.

The coordinated intervention was designed to ease mounting pressure on global energy prices following Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz during the escalating regional conflict.


The oil loaned from the reserve will be repaid with oil

You’re doing a great job of holding your position here, SDV. One point I think some in this thread are missing is that the Promethean Action people are talking about the City of London, the one square mile in the center of London that is a financial center, not GB in general
