re: Ford Shuts Down Production Due to Chinese Supply Issues

I heard they had over a million units sitting at a plant in Kentucky with no where to ship them.
Aint no company building a million units into backlog inventory. I just purchased a new PU a few months ago and I can assure you Ford is not hurting on sales. They were not near as accomodating on price negotiation as GM was. Their reasoning was that they dont have to because they have the sales

Unless an announcer is offering to have the LSU team and coaching staff run a train on his wife, this fan base hates them and thinks they are somehow “against” the tigers
It is not the fanbase. Just some tittybaby posters on a msg board. Most people like me DGAF who the announcers are but some are more entertaining than others.

If you want to bury your head in your arse and not acknowledge that he’s had a slump the tail end of the season to show everyone how hardcore of a fan you are, then sure go ahead. Some of us here are realists.
Amazing that people on here dont realize that at times a player will perform under his average sometimes and over it sometimes… unless they are a machine

because we know BK will not overpay for talent like he did with Underwood or that other kid and look how that shite turned out BK has his best roster since arriving in Baton Rouge.
BK biological clock is ticking... he went way deeper and harder into the portal this year because he dont have time to keep rebuilding the program

I think this is overplayed like "Covid is killing everyone" was by the fraudsters leading Covid relief. Moreover, to the degree and in the cases where we need to pull back as opposed to slash, why not do that? Not that there'll be zero pain, but there are ways to fix this that doesn't cause a worldwide depression.
The govt controls the money supply to accomodate the debt service. When the banks and the stock market get worried I will get worried. Just like the global warmers. When the banks quit loaning money to low lying areas then I will get concerned.
The govt walks the fine economic line between prosperity and ruin. Cant pay the debt… economy crashes. Cut out social entitlements to cut spending… economy crashes.

but crippling Hezbolla, Hamas, and Houtis allowed thier attacking Iran to run smoother. Israel didn't have to worry about Iran's terrorists proxies launching rockets from every other direction.

I looked at this from a 10k ft perspective and realized that Obama and Biden (Dems) really fricked Israel so now that Trump is in office they are going for the kill shot on their major enemies. Even if DJT doesnt join them they are ok in the long run.

I wonder how many replays they will simply ignore to fit whatever narrative they are pushing.
They are operating by the Golden Rule... they have the gold and they make the rules. Get used to it. Its the universal guideline.
You all make me feel like home though. My brother hates all the announcers, mutes all commercials lest he be influenced by technology, screams at the umps, and hates every team I am rooting for.

Down 0-2 in the count, any other left handed hitter would have swung at one of those pitches offered up by Root and struck out.
He has one of the best eyes for pitches I have seen in a while. He has done very well laying off the inside breaking balls.
I remember Burrow’s draft eval showing he had a top 5% or better reaction rate between eye and hand. I think Curiel is one of those people too.

This is the one I was referring to a couple posts above but I could not remember who the recruit was!

After reading the stories on here I remember CEO camping out on a dude's front curb before he was leaving on a visit and he might have been there when he got back.

Tommy Tuberville was hosting a big recruiting dinner at a fine restaurant at Texas Tech. He received a phone call during dinner and got up and excused himself... the next time those recruits saw Tommy he was getting off a plane and being announced as the new HC of the Univ of Cinncinnati.
Absolute true story. He got flamed by the media for that one.

re: Iran and the narrative
Posted by GetmorewithLes on 6/13/25 at 4:59 pm
quote:
I do tend to believe that Iran has a strict Muslim government. Thats about all that I just straight up believe. Watching videos of people traveling through Iran really opened up my eyes though. These people are not savages. I want to at least hear their side of the story.
Then I take it you are not my age then. I went to college with many Iranians back in the 70's and 80's. In about 79 the muslim clerics overthrew the Shah who was very western friendly. In fact Iran at that time was probably the most western minded muslim society in the Middle East. When the clerics took over there was no law but what they said which was ultra conservative muslim beliefs. No room for toleration of the infidel. Also, women in Iran who were highly eductated lost all human rights as stated in Sharia Law.
The college students I went to school with were pro-Shah for the most part and were at that time exiled from Iran or it they returned home they would be killed. The pro Shah citizens were shoved down the citizen heirarchy and many were executed as a purge of western thought. In fact I was working with an Iranian engineer a few yrs ago who to this day says he is on a death list because of who his family is. He has not been home in 40+ yrs.
As for the current regime, yes, they are world sponsors of terror. The bankroll every problem in the Middle East. The Saudis dont like them, the Egptians, the Syrians, the Lebanese, the Turks, the Jordanians, and especially the Iraqis dont like them because of this.
You are right to question what you see and hear these days. That is what we do here on the Rant every day. It should not take you long to find out what the truth is on the Iranian leaders. I should preface this that there is still some pro-western Iranians in Iran but they have been completely shackled politically

The field at that time was located in the middle of campus, had grass amphitheater seating with no bleachers, and damn sure no consession stands. The players prepped the field.
re: Ethan Frey...Is the plan for him to take over for JJ at 1st??
Posted by GetmorewithLes on 6/11/25 at 7:36 pm

Yup. And if $250K in NIL was close to what Jones was offered in the draft, MLB didn’t view him as a Top 150 player which is one of the principle reasons we are saying that Frey is likely gone.
We are still throwing these numbers around like frisbees but if the settlement goes through the NIL value stuff will be trimmed way back. That may change a lot of dynamics in this draft and on HS recruits
