Insurance with Geico is $120/month


Dude, you need more insurance. You've obviously been lucky so far, but it's a ticking time bomb for you--especially in this state

Ummm...they already are

So how do the players get the relief they were granted to make them whole? If they are not eligible, they have no relief and the TRO is meaningless.


You are conflating two issues. The relief sought in the lawsuit was to have the 5 for 5 eligibility rule applied retroactively to the class of 2022. That was granted.

Just being in compliance with general NCAA eligibility rules does not mean conferences cannot have more restrictive rules on its VOLUNTARY member institutions. No different than a conference requiring a 3.0gpa to play--which is 1000% permissible.

If a member institution does not want to be subject to conference rules it can give up the money and go the Notre Dame route.

These players are NCAA eligible...they just need to go play for a conference with less restrictive rules.
quote:

And it specifically says no restrictions can be added by the NCAA or any of its affiliates. The SEC is an affiliate conference


Sorry, but you just misunderstand due process and the rights of necessary parties. You cannot bind a third party to anything without affording that third party the opportunity to show up in court and make its case. Everything you are saying is just fun wishcasting that has no impact on the SEC.

quote:

I don't know that it is in direct defiance of a court order

And...the schools know that at some point, the conference WILL be able to come down on them

Its not worth it over 2-3 players that aren't stars


This is why there are procedural rules in litigation. You can't issue relief that impacts the rights of a third party without having that third party involved in the litigation.

If the Plaintiffs' lawyers wanted to bind conferences to the injunctive relief, they would have had to add those conferences as parties to the underlying litigation.

Art. 641. Joinder of parties needed for just adjudication

A person shall be joined as a party in the action when either:

(1) In his absence complete relief cannot be accorded among those already parties.

(2) He claims an interest relating to the subject matter of the action and is so situated that the adjudication of the action in his absence may either:

(a) As a practical matter, impair or impede his ability to protect that interest.

(b) Leave any of the persons already parties subject to a substantial risk of incurring multiple or inconsistent obligations.

Bump for 2026.
Any new options?
It is not their strength coach. She is a new assistant in the program in the strength and conditioning department. I give prime credit that he likes to give new people experience like this.

To me, the most bang for your buck is still World of Hyatt. You can easily get 5-star resort award nights for 25,000-35,000 points/night. That same class of hotel is close to 100k points per night for marriott.

And, when you book hyatt with reward points, you avoid the $50-90/night "resort fee"

That's a fact. He did most of that last year at Colorado.

Why would it be limited to just drunk driving? If the principle behind it is that you took someone's life and now you have to pay for their responsibilities, it should apply across the board to any killing that is not justified.

And why just child support? If you cause an accident on the interstate and I miss my flight, you should reimburse me. Let's do that law.

One of those words is inaccurate.
quote:

Sadly, no matter how successful you are, whitey will never accept you as an equal. 


It's honestly not your fault. You've been raised and nurtured to believe that the white man does everything to keep you under thumb make sure you continue to feel inferior.

It's hard to think critically and challenge these notions when to do so, you would have to recognize and admit that the narrative you've been sold your entire life was a complete lie.

Maybe for the Tract homes, but where I live in Baldwin county with an hvac co and a home design company, we’ve never been busier with new home construction.


I'm not talking about tract homes. I'm talking about high-end custom builds in south Louisiana. I recognize things may be different in Alabama since there is no announced ice operation happening there. But there is one happening here and roundups at construction sites are happening daily in New Orleans.

Residential construction issues

I'm hearing that residential construction is basically shutting down for a bit in Nola/BR due to the ICE sweeps with workers hiding. Anyone seeing this?

Prince St. is good stuff - should easily become the best in BR


I'm sure it will be great for a year before it closes. BR does not have the disposable income density to support $40 pizzas. It's not enough that a bunch of us will eat there and love it. Places like this need population density to survive. BR doesn't have it.

Totally fair. Like I said, it's a big number.

disagree completely. Express is mandatory for Epic.


This is the correct answer if you really want to enjoy the park. If it's just you or you and one other, it's totally worth it to pay 600 bucks and not have to think about anything other than where you want to get your next drink and where you want to go next knowing that there will be no wait for you.

If you have a big family, it's a big number. So I understand not getting it if you are visiting with a family of five.

But I enjoy nice things. And I'm willing to pay to have a great day.

When I went last month, we walked in whenever we wanted, grabbed a coffee, walked leisurely around the park, and waited in no lines. As I walked past hours and hours of lines, I could not help but think in my head that it was the best $600 we had ever spent.
