The National Champion LSU women's team practiced against a men's intramural team and they played even.

75/25 brokerage account. Work until kids graduate college, then retire early.

I think everyone assumed players have always gotten paid but there’s no way it was as much or widespread as this.


They got paid to sign and would get envelopes with cash if they had a big game. Honey Badger had lots of big games. Now more guys are getting way more money. The back up O-line is getting more that he was getting when he was the best athlete in college football.

The majority of the ones we lost had no business playing for LSU anyway


They over rate guys based on their HS rating and don't look at development enough.

The Quarterdeck is a popular restaurant in Arlington. It is about a block away from the cemetery.

I like a small Italian place called Tortino. It is in the downtown area.

For lunch, the restaurant inside the Museum of the American Indian is really good.

I am sure Iranian generals are getting phone calls with offers that are hard to refuse.

However those pesky college classes are starting soon


They can keep taking classes at their current university to stay eligible and try to find a place to transfer in May.

Part of the problem are bad agents that tell the kids they have deals lined up that do not really exist. The agents get mad and pressure the kids if they don't enter the portal. There are also lots of conflicts of interest with agencies representing both players and coaches or connecting deals for multiple players without telling them.

We need to secure nuclear sites.
Cuba is closer, already has a better military infrastructure, and has a historical alliance with China.
The pro-hamas protests and university take over was largely funded by Iran and China.
Haiti doesn't really have anything to contribute on their side of any alliance.
The Bin Laden raid was 15 years ago. Our Special Forces have spent the last 20 years developing and improving raid tactics and technology. While the military of the dictatorships have largely been focused on bullying civilians.

We should cut the head off the Iranian snake now.

They could be pre-positioning in the Kurdish area of Iraq to secure any nuclear sites if the Mullahs fall.
Why do we want Greenland? We already have a base there and full military use.
Part of the Venezuelan military taking on Cubans protecting the Bolivaristas.
Fort Bliss and a couple state national guards have them. They will deploy for some national events like a Superbowl or presidential inauguration.

Mobile Patriot systems.

Back in the 60s there were Nike Batteries near every major coastal city and base. There are YouTube videos of people exploring a couple of them.
15 or so will go in to the portal every year because they have been passed up and won't start so they transfer to find a starting spot. Look at the LSU defensive portal entries. They are visiting group of 5 schools.

CNN is reporting the streets are quiet and this feels like Ukraine at the beginning of the war there.
If Maduro is so innocent, why did Biden and Obama give open asylum to Venezuelans.
