re: NO KINGS Financials Released!

Even if the numbers aren't precise, I am glad that more people will realize that this isn't some "Grassroots" organic initiative by regular citizens.
This has been apparent to me that it is a very organized group with clear funding.
Where I see the most annoying presence of it is on Reddit (which I know is a cesspool) on my local community page, there are constant posts about upcoming rallies and if you ask even the smallest logistical question about that rally that could be concerning, not even about the ideology, you will immediately attract like 40 down votes. This is when that page never sees that many up votes or down votes on any other Posts/Topics.
So, they clearly have a Social Media arm. And that arm definitely does follow-up social content after these events that are misleadingly written as organic from some Blue Collar worker that was curious and attended for their first time (but clearly coming from a bigger machine).
Additionally, on YouTube Front Page on Saturday, they had LIVE feeds from multiple rallies streaming by the Associated Press with multiple photographers. Most people don't realize that you pay significantly for Associated Press coverage. This wasn't the AP covering the Event because they thought it was great national news - it was because they were being strategically paid to staff and provide coverage (the same way as a business can have the AP do both for a Grand Opening).
Finally, the liberal rag the USA Today pretty much dominated their entire front page like an Advertorial to the rallies on Saturday. The USA Today absolutely had to get paid for that.

re: Greatest choke I have ever seen

I love rewatching this on a loop to see that after he threw the interception that Cayden Boozer immediately retreats from manning up on defense and falls into some zone and that #3 Isaiah Evans was "Too AAU Cool" to raise his hands even above his waste to even try to throw the shooter off from a wide open look.
Those kids deserved to lose.

Duke Coach could have called a timeout and reminded them with 10.0 flat that they didn't even need to cross the half court line.
Nice Basketball IQ on the one Boozer twin.

Anyways...
Politicians: 1) Americans can complete an annual 1040. 2) Photo IDs for Voting is Racist.
Posted by UncleLester on 3/23/26 at 12:43 pm
I am sure this argument has been made before but I think it is topical during tax season.
1) Politicians are fine with tax paying Americans having to spend hours going through a 1040 form annually to calculate their individual amount of State & Federal Income Tax.
BUT...
2) Asking an adult to get to a State DMV to go through the process to acquire a Photo ID and then present that Photo ID is just too much.
The second item is exponentially easier than the first, unless I am missing something.

Because if you had ever taken any effort to follow the team in even recent history - you would know that these scenarios have happened plenty.

Perhaps, a DL that played 6 years in college but needs to get healthy.
Or maybe a raw OL from a small school that has only played football for one or two seasons.
Excited to see what we end up giving up in these scenarios.

My “e-Magical Moment” Winner from Tonight: Jake Brown
Posted by UncleLester on 3/13/26 at 10:56 pm
Since Coach isn’t going to give any hardware out to any Tigers tonight…
I’d like to recognize Jake Brown with a job well done online by me for going 3-5 with 3 RBI’s!
Thanks for your efforts in covering the +1.5 Run Line, Jake!

Men's Basketball Halftime Adjustment & Looking Ahead: Round 1 in SEC Edition
Posted by UncleLester on 3/11/26 at 12:22 pm
I think we're in a good spot if we can clean a few things up! Coach has the team playing very hard against a historically dominant Kentucky program.
Refs are being a little generous to the Wildcats but I expect it to even out.
I predict a big run for the Tigers to start the 2nd Half!

Amir "Aura" Khan & The McNeese Cowboys' Southland Run Continues! 3OT Win! On to The Final!
Posted by UncleLester on 3/10/26 at 11:38 pm
28 Game Home Winning Streak, 84-80 in Triple OT!
Despite The Cowboys shooting 52% (16-31) from the Free Throw Line against UT Rio Grande tonight, including a handful of suspicious key misses in the first OT and second OT.
Southland Championship Game is tomorrow at 4PM CT against #1 seed Stephen F. Austin.
Will McNeese have any legs to be able to compete tomorrow?
One side note: I would have expected a bigger crowd for McNeese at home in such a critical game for the program. Looked 40% empty. Oh well.

We can still fire Coach in a couple of weeks but this would make for an entertaining week!
I like how we can matchup with both Kentucky and Missouri.
Geaux Tigers!

Just another friendly reminder to never hoard your Frequent Flyer/Loyalty Points - use them when you can.
Or one day they could be worth zero.

After the airball "assist" + make, Coach McM takes a "lets feel good about things" timeout.
If it was more than that, he would sub out MacKinnon for Defense here.
