Wishing you both nothing but the best. Consider posting this on the Tiger Rant. You'd be surprised at the connections some folks have on there. Joe may be blessed with some cards and well wishes from current or former LSU players.
This is probably not a big deal and your GF needs to calm down.



This is a little different.

Idk about you guys, but if I ever go bungee jumping in a third world country (I won't), I'm probably going to at least take a peek back and make sure the connected the bungee to the harness.
What's Jake Fraley up to? I seem to recall him playing for the Reds a few seasons ago.

Very few travel teams are doing this until you get the the 13/14/15U national teams.

Academies and travel ball are different. Academies help develop players. The guy running the travel Ball league couldn’t care less about development, all he wants is your check.


Sure, if you pick the wrong organization. Believe it or not, travel ball is just like many other things in life. There are people involved in it for the right reasons and there are those that are involved to exploit others. Choose carefully.

And yet a majority of the players in MLB are from poor Hispanic countries. Obviously the travel ball thing ain’t working that great.


Those Dominican kids are going through training programs that would make the travel ball kids here blush. There's a reason the MLB has academies set up down there. Despite what you may see on IG reels, those kids are not making to the MLB playing stick ball in a dirt street. The MLB realized long ago that getting into those communities and providing legit facilities with legit training as a "way out of poverty" would pay off dividends. The kids in those academies eat, breathe, and sleep baseball.
Her husband cheated on her, so this is okay.
The ones that try to squeeze to the front are bad, but just as bad are the ones that patiently wait their turn and once the row in front of them exits they THEN decide that it is an appropriate time to grab their bag from under the seat, put away their laptop, grab their jacket, take off their headphones, all while standing in the aisle. Disembarking an airplane makes me irrationally angry at other people.

In your fit of hormonal rage you've made assumptions that are not stated in the article and completely fabricated other facts. You keep saying that he chose to go chase tail instead of protect his kids. Did you read the article?

Man goes to bar on Sunday night. Wife finds him in a car with another woman and shoots at them, hitting someone (presumably the woman in the car). Man calls cops and gives statement at scene. While giving a statement woman kills their kids and herself. Exactly at which part of the story did he decide to chase tail instead of protect his kids? He can't just up and leave the scene of a crime that he witnessed.
If a young moderately attractive teacher is coming to school in a student's football jersey, you already know what's happening.

How else are we going to get dinosaurs in modern day?

Maybe it's just me, but these movies would have been A LOT more boring if the dinosaurs never got out and caused panic and chaos.

Well, yea. It's a movie about dinosaurs.

It would be pretty difficult to come up with an interesting movie plot involving dinosaurs in a modern day setting without these things.

She's one of the few from that early 2000s era that has not gone completely batshit crazy ala Brittney Spears and Amanda Bynes.
It's comedy. Shane Gillis made fun of one of the black lady's husband committing suicide. Several people joked about Pete Davidson's dad being killed in 9/11. It's not meant to be taken seriously.
