re: Permanent Opponent Based On Number Of Times Previously Played
Posted by TheLoupGarou on 8/25/25 at 3:52 pm to LSUDonMCO
I agree with LSUDonMCO.
Should be regional as best as one can make it:
LSU —- Ole Miss, aTm, and Arkansas.
I know Miss State is closer in proximity to any of these other three, but at least in my lifetime Miss State has not been able to play competitively against LSU.

2023: big ball + elite pitching = championship
2025: small ball + elite pitching = championship.
Hummh,… I think I see a pattern.
Kudos to the OP. Nice solid post! I like factual information rather than someone’s unfounded and unsupported “dumbass opinion”

re: Going rate for Oil leases in area near Many ?
Posted by TheLoupGarou on 7/22/25 at 3:17 pm to lgtiger
Well, they’re not handing out cash at present for leases in sectors they are not anticipating drilling in.
Don’t be greedy but be smart. These guys are professionals at getting the best deals for their company.
This might help: www.sonris.com
Another useful tool: www.mineralanswers.com. Look for the link to “maps” that will show if there is planned drilling in your area.

LSU connections to the baseball talent-poor State of New Mexico
Posted by TheLoupGarou on 7/2/25 at 11:19 am
Looks like LSU has picked up another gem from the athletic-poor state of New Mexico. Grayson Garcia, a southpaw pitcher from Las Cruces, same HS as Steven “Monster” Milam, is coming to LSU from Oregon through the transfer portal. Add these two to LSU baseball alums with the great Alex Bergman of Albuquerque (whose father played for the University of New Mexico Lobos while I worked at UNM in the early ‘90’s). Bregman, of course, is a MLB star, and I expect Milam to be drafted and someday (hopefully) make it to the bigs. Maybe this new kid will be the next big Mejicano Nuevo thing from LSU.
re: Which Championship run was the more enjoyable, 2023 or 2025?
Posted by TheLoupGarou on 6/23/25 at 2:06 pm to saturncube21
2025’s championship victory was a bit more unanticipated and surprising. Mid-season I would not have predicted LSU’s utter domination in post-season play that occurred.
But 2023’s postseason was more enjoyable to watch due to the close calls with elimination and the classic battle to the death with UF.
In retrospect, though, if the 2025 team played a Sunday game with the 2023 team (meaning to negate the ace pitching of both teams), I think the 2025 Tigers would find a way to eke out a win over the 2023 champions.

I’m disappointed, sure, but not shocked that a cupcake team beat the stuffings out of LSU. It happens in baseball.
But if UA-LR does it a second time, I’ll be both severely disappointed and greatly surprised.
Tonight: LSU 9, UA-LR 0.

My thoughts - the OP has failed at a sophomoric, immature attempt at trolling. I don't like Bama because of their domination over the last decade or so, but I've always thought their fans were some of the more classy and intelligent posters on the Rant. The OP sounds like some of the losers from Tennessee or A&M.
My suggestion: ignore the troll and he will go away.

re: Why were musicians/vocalists so much more talented back in the day ?
Posted by TheLoupGarou on 5/27/25 at 5:49 pm to Shredded
Absolutely.
Good, talented rock bands began dying out in the last years of the Eagles.
There were a number of bands I enjoyed listening to in the 1990’s to early 2000’s, but they weren’t (or didn’t sound to be) particularly talented.
I don’t know what’s out there today. Electronic, synthesized, heavily over-recorded stuff? I dunno.
I just listen now to the talented but OLD (like me) 60 & 70 y.o musicians playing in local cover bands.
Is it true about what I heard that Rock&Roll is dead? If so, so be it. It’s societal evolution. But damn, what a run that rock and roll had.

re: Best gas 16 to 18 inch chain saw recommendations
Posted by TheLoupGarou on 5/25/25 at 6:38 pm to CastleBravo
Stihl.
(Echo and Homelite years ago worked well for me)
I have an 18” and 26” and I do a lot of chainsaw work on my 80 ac semi-forested farm.
They are indestructible and reliable.
My only complaint is they can be a pain in the arse when the chain jumps the bar, but once you get use to re-chaining the bar it becomes easier.
But DO NOT waste money on a small battery operated chainsaw. They’re ok for your wife pruning bushes and trees of up to 3” in diameter, but more than that, forget it.

re: Travis Hunter got married

Hey, y’all.
Did you know that this gal is his high-school sweetheart?
From everything I’ve heard about him (despite his stereotypical appearance), this guy is an exemplary young man.
From a man who is in his 45th year of blissful marriage to his own high school sweetheart, I wish the two the best (and lots of children).
If I was making what he is at age 22, I’d buy my new wife a $500,000 car and a $1,000,000 home without hesitation.

GAME!!! LSU 4, A&M 3. Good game!
Pitchers’ duel.
I’m surprised Jay Johnson went with our Saturday night starter in relief..
We got the win, but I guess we’re done for the rest of the tournament.

They’ve kept LSU off the bases for 5 straight innings now.

re: Is Tigerdroppings the most used college sports centered site on the Internet?
Posted by TheLoupGarou on 5/18/25 at 9:24 pm to Yellow Truck
SEC Rant and TigerRant are the only two sport sites I visit. I prefer the former to the latter. I can glean a lot of information from TugerRant, particularly the BPB in baseball (missing you, Cheerwine and Liquid Rabbit) . But The negatigers can be insufferable at times, like when LSU falls behind a few runs in the mid-innings of a midweek game. I like the SEC Rant for its divergent and generally intelligent posts. I hate, though, the idiots that troll the site. I wish there was someway that the “general population” could vote out the assholes that make this site knee-deep in B.S. at times.
