Color me clueless. I have been AWOL when it comes to LSU men's basketball. Will Wades return will get my attention. I don't have a crystal ball to tell me if the men's basketball program will be resurrected. But I don't need a crystal ball to tell it will a fun ride to see how this all plays out. I certainly will be interested in the hoopla that comes from his hiring. This is better than a reality show or daytime soap opera. :nana:

So many balls to juggle with all going on in the world. Attention span for average press event has taken a major drop in amount of time it airs. Just thinking back we were bombarded with the Nancy Guthrie marathon. Now with war in Iran and the Gridlock in Congress and the upcoming mid terms , it hard to keep track of all that is going on. I am still a little concerned about Trump's upcoming trip to China.

91 to 72 on Jan 17 LSU in a comfortable win. Hope they can repeat past performance

You say they can not afford to or do not want to spend the money?
I say how can they afford not to if they have any hope of remaining relevant and putting a team together to compete. It is a matter of producing a viable product to compete in order to get the money from the SEC basketball TV contracts. Maybe get Woodside Energy, Lady of the Lake, and Nike to all contribute some cash. 30 million for a basketball team seems excessive but I guess that is the going rate. I don't have a clue. I would expect some of the expenses would be offset by ticket sales etc but still that is a lot of money. I do not see how they can justify a new Pete's Palace when no one is going to show up to watch this team perform. I wonder if it would be wise to look at the other sports that are just not that big with the fan base tennis, golf etc Not sure how much money these sports are budgeted. How does the "Woodside Tiger Mens Basketball team sound for $30 million? :lol: We got accept and face the music, Money talks and bullshite walks. You want to be relevant in a sport you need big bucks and corporate sponsor.

That's and easy answer. Allowing unvetted immigration will do it every time it tried. Corrupts a countries culture. You won't see this in Japan however.

Can you imagine a debate between AOC vs JD or Rubio?
Please explain what qualifies her to be POUS.
Enumerate what she has accomplished in her governmental role.
Laws passed, actions taken, bills introduced, committees chaired, papers written extolling her vast knowledge of government. Looking for some positive reinforcement. I already am only too well aware of the negatives.

Why not go find a new fresh face instead of bringing back a retread. Surely there is some young coaching talent out there that can bring the program back to success without all the inherent drama Wade would bring. I do believe anything would be better than the status quo.

Best microwave story ever. See if you can out do this one.
In Louisiana Prisons there is a Federal non smoking policy mandate. Of course DOC sells smokeless tobacco products in the canteen. The prisons make a lot of money off these sales. Prisoners dry out the tobacco in the microwave to make cigarettes, They use newspaper to wrap the tobacco in to make the cigarettes. Since non smoking policy no longer are lighters sold. Now comes the microwave miracle. Lead pencil is used to scratch a patch on paper then placed in the microwave till it ignites and the burning paper is used to light the cigarettes. Tobacco is banned to protect inmate health and welfare. So now smoking snuff and using ink printed newspaper to make cigarettes is infinitely more hazardous to their health.
Now can you imagine what food taste like that is cooked in the microwave after this. With the menthol snuff and the burning paper the Ramen noodles a distinctive smoked menthol flavor. The "hook ups" can tie up a microwave for at least an hour. So if you think the office microwave is interesting you have not seen nothing till you see desperate smoking addicted prisoners at play.
If want validation, just ask any DOC correction officer :spank:

Mamdani and the knifer have something in common. They both believe you can attack and threaten the life of a cop and expect the cop to let you. Forget wat happened to the poor girl on subway from Ukraine when that freak with the knife killed her in just a few seconds. Insanity is the new norm. Strange as it seems there are those who actually believe a guy aggressively threatening the cops life with a knife in his hand should be coddled.
