The stuff was thrown on the field because of the call at the end of the game... not because of LK

Could have happened in any SEC game with the same situation. They just were aiming and LK because he was there.

I'm not upset. I just recognize this as a pretty neutral event.

Keeping China out of the Hemisphere without military action or a Cuban Missile Crisis type standoff is a huge win..

That's fine, everyone can understand that. What is unacceptable is him calling Rowe a hooker as he ran off.

There is absolutely no reason for that, not on live TV anyway.

He said "Hook Em'" :lol:

Other conferences can’t allow them to have the booth in big non conference games or the playoffs. Neutral crew will have to be negotiated.

I remember as a youngster my boomer uncle telling me that back in his day attending college FB games the refs would actaully penalize the home team if the crowd noise was too loud! I couldn't even believe it.

If you're going to a sporting event, there will be noises. I don't know what you expected honestly

---

I'm with OP on this honestly. I want raucous SEC crowds making the grond shake on big plays or 3rd downs. I don't want to hear Stella Lefty blasted from speaker at near 120 dB. I also want to listen to local sports talk without the commercials being too loud. The problem isn't the volume, its that the wrong things are loud.

On public roads? What law prevents people from watching you in public?

In Tenneseee the Stalking and Aggravated Stalking statutes would prevent someone from doing this.

Free speech, free press, and free association disagree with your assertions. It is exactly the reason why you have a license plate

A license plate doesn’t create a database that constantly tracks your movements. Again, the closest example in current use is GPS which always requires a warrant.

These cameras have been around for decades, suddenly we give it a buzz word "flock" and everyone is up in alarm. Why the rage now?

---

Because the companies Flock and Axon had installed them in the 10's of thousands. Those surveillance networks all feed into a database that can track movements for the lifetime of the database. In short, the level of surveillance escalated rapidly with a citizen/voter demand for it.

is it really ngos fighting deportations?

---

Nope... the pushback has been from both sides of the aisle. In fact, the only people I've seen support it are Police Departments, District Attorneys offices, a small segment of government officials, and about 5% of random internet people.

quote:

---

Step back and reflect. Who benefits if all "flock" cameras are removed. Would that stop any policeman from pulling you over???? But it certainly would hamper tracking down illegals hmmmmmm.

---

Everyone benefits. It would certainly take away fake probable cause traffic stops to answer that question. But to take your argument one tiny step further, why not allow law enforcment to enter homes freely, without a warrant, to look for illegals. They'd probably get a lot more of them.

There was rightfully outrage when Law Enforcement went house to house following the Boston Marathon Bombing. Citizens saw that as going too far, and rightfully that tactic is violative of the 4th Amendment protections. Keeping a database of every driver's movement and locations is in that same boat. It's not proper and it violated 4th Amendment protections that have been around for almost 250 years.

We did this thread on the MSB. I think it's more about companies like Hoka, On, Brooks, Asics, Saucony, and Altra taking market share in running shoes, as well as Lululemon, Vuori, and Fabletics, etc. on clothing. I'm guessing they still dominate the basketball shoe market, but not on culture/streetwear anymore.

---

Seems like the MSB is kinda lazy then...

Saucony has been around since 1898, Brooks since 1914,

Altra, On and Hoka are relatively new, but their minor market, but market share of Puma has fallen.

Nike still leads marketshare in running and basketball... but their financials are awful.

While I'm in no way defending Swalwell, I really hate that we've given the Feds the power to seize your cellphone at an airport and effectively leave you stranded somewhere.

This makes no sense. The only reason you could possibly feel unsafe in a church is with the exceedingly rare situation where some crazy goes in there and shoots the place up. A flock camera isn't stopping that. How exactly does a flock camera make you feel safer in a church? Walk us through the logic here.

---

We've had drug addicts bust out car windows while we were at worship, looking for purses.

We have regular security cameras mainly for that reason, but also because there was a shooting at a Universalist Church nearby in 2008.

License plate database is obviously a negative, but monitoring the parking lot is smart.

Both 2011 LSU and Alabama have almost always been underrated in these discussions. Either team could hang with or beat just about any team on that list. Suffocating defenses that could single-handedly take over games.

This... x 100

05 Texas (The most overrated team on this list) might get shutout by both.
