This is weak. You could have used Greg Brooks instead of Nuss for a better argument.
And it still would have been weak
Burrow doesn't care about LSU as much as yall think/hope he does.

Correct

And the Shellac primer, as I understand it can yellow. The shellac based doesn't.

At minimum wipe to get any dirt and things off the surface, but ideally use any degreaser you can pick up at home depot or Walmart.

Better the prep, the better product you'll have in the long run.

I would use Zinsser BIN oil based primer and top coat with latex.
Zinsser makes an odorless oil based that I have used and works well. It's just more expensive than BIN.

Definitely clean the wall before priming. Lightly sanding the surface wouldn't hurt.

I agree the transfer portal is screwed up but what you're suggesting isn't an option.
LSU starts classes Jan. 12th.
National Championship is Jan. 19th.
Two weeks later would be Feb 2nd.

Kids still have to decide where to go to school, enroll, move and start taking classes. They would miss half a semester.

I think if you only do one portal it needs to be as soon as spring semester ends and allows the transfers to joint the team the same as high school commits, in the summer.

May be a troll but you're taking that too literal. Could be a u high booster not coming from a U high checkbook.

From the yard picture it looks like you've got a number of acorns.

How dense is the canopy from the Oak? If the grass never gets sun it's always going to be thin.
Ain't nothing impressive about going 8-4.

Especially when you're paying your roster a fortune.

re: Hot water heater vs tankless

Posted by WITNESS23 on 11/14/25 at 6:18 am to
Bought a house in June. Water heater went out in August. That thing was installed in 1988 and of course went out 6 weeks into me being in the house.

Got a quote to replace the 50 gallon gas tank water heater for $2800 or $4500 to put a gas tankless in the attic.

Went tankless. Works great so far.

This is in Baton Rouge fwiw
Can you explain "edge" to me?
