No way Minneapolis is that low. The presidential election was like 90% Kamala in Hennepin County.
Whatever clutch gene he had got knocked out of him by Aaron Donald on the last play of the SB.

Similar situation. Making double or triple the amount of money doesn't get you double the amount of house.

I look at houses today that we could've bought at those interest rates and weep knowing what could've been :lol:

They went for it because they knew Lane would go for 2 if we scored after. They were thinking ahead and beating him to the punch


This

If we get the ball back down 7, you can potentially win the game on the last drive. That's psychologically advantageous.

Those 2 pts gutted us knowing the best we could do was tie.

Even if they don't get it their D can win the game with a stop. It was an aggressive but smart move.

It would help if we had a WR1 that he could toss it up to.

We don't have a typical LSU WR1 that can go up and win 50/50 balls so Leavitt needs to be very accurate and he hasn't been so far.
1. Leavitt accuracy issues

2. Lack of a WR1

3. Baker's scheme against good opponents

Those are the glaring issues that stood out to me last night.

I think #1 is fixable as Leavitt plays some more games but the other 2 aren't. Baker is who he is and he'll put out an elite D against lesser teams, but he isn't going to win us games against elite offenses.

We'll need to outscore people and #1 and #2 above don't lend to that.

This team is who we thought they were in pre-season, a fringe playoff team. The Clemson game baited everyone into thinking this was a Championship type team but I don't think they are.
Jesus, stop being a pussy. All this pearl clutching is embarrassing

Any baws in the Minneapolis area?

I know it's a long shot, this place is destitute of southerners, but I'm desperate for some fellow Tigers.

Right up there with:

"The whole world hates you.

This is your chance to tell the whole world go frick yourself"

You answered your own question, genius. LSU puffed out its chest, discovered the SEC held the leash, then obediently fell back in line to avoid getting tossed.


I'll say it again, LSU did exactly what it said it was gonna do from the start. Kiffin and the school literally said it for everyone to hear.

The chest puffing you think you heard was from message board posters and state attorneys that don't represent LSU.
What exactly constitutes as bending the knee?

Avoiding getting kicked out of the conference for 2 players it doesnt need? Cool, that's a shitty outcome for all.

But LSU has literally done exactly what it said it would do from the start, abide by the SEC rules.
For better or worse, I think we're at the point of no return. Can't backtrack now.

That creates a no-win situation: a Louisiana university could obey the judge’s order but get punished by the SEC—or follow the SEC’s position and potentially disobey the court.

The AG argues that a public university should never have to choose between obeying a Louisiana court and protecting its coaches, athletic program, and public money.


This is the best argument I've heard so far.

Ole Miss fans casting stones about TROs is one of the more comical things about all of this.

The level of delusional hypocrisy Lane has induced on them is really a sight to behold.
I'm still blown away how many people regularly pay 10-30% more to get crappy food delivered to them.

I vastly underestimated these services and thought they'd be dead a year or 2 after Covid.
I dated one for a long time who previously had a GF before me.

She was hot but a little coocoo. She still had a bunch of lesbo friends and that's when I learned they're all pretty much bi and attracted to guys. Most were just burned at some point and switched to girls or had shitty childhoods and were acting out.

Was a fun time but I moved on once I realized she wanted to get married and I knew she wasn't the one.
RDR early years were a blast, still have fond memories, although it started getting a bit too popular.

It was always a pretty fun crowd though and tons of hot broads in tiny dresses.

How's it look these days?

Unless it's just to get a match, a taxable brokerage offers better tax treatment than these Trump accounts. Why pay income tax rates when you can pay preferable LTCG rates with no restrictions on withdrawals?


Can you expound on this a little more?

Are you saying its more tax advantaged to contribute to your own account and gift it to your kids rather than fund a Trump account?

Or is there a separate avenue to open an account for a kid?
Has been a good trade so far, thanks for the rec.

Probably going to increase my holdings next week.
