Yes my friend, times...they are a changin.

White male employment is at 10000%!

At least ya'll get paid and not hanging from a tree.

The Cox guide/interface has changed in the last 2-3 years. Maybe you need a new box.


I recently switched to Directv and it's like I upgraded form a flip phone to a smart phone. It's just better.

Poor defensive rotations which leads him to fouling a shite ton because he's out of position.

I wouldn't mind him getting more minutes tho.

Some games he's awesome.

What?
It took one of the highest paid coaching staffs in the country this long to figure out something the fans have been screaming?

The MBA boys on this board may start talking about the value of networking which is probably the only significant thing of value from an MBA unless going to a top 20 program.


Well that's just not true at all.

There are hundreds of thousands of upper level management jobs in the U.S and you think that only the top 20 programs fill all those jobs needs?

I think the older generation are the only ones who attach the bad stigma to online education. It's clearly the future. Stanford is looking into opening an entire online only school and nearly every school has jumped on and added some type of online offering...from a few basic classes to full level degrees. The University of Creighton has an entire online Pharmacy School program.

Directv technology is so far ahead of cox. Hell just a look at the interface impressed me.
I just don't get it. It's impossible for his jumper to be that bad. Just shoot the damn ball!
lol it's funny because you think he is wrong.
He's just afraid to shoot a jumper. Baffling

Good. He isn't worth 30% of the cap because number 1 he constantly misses 15-20 games a year and number 2 it's a guard and point forward driven league.




I'd say he doesn't deserve it because he doesn't give 90-100% every game.

I'm sure more players do it and I just don't see it because I don't watch every game they play like I watch the Pels but AD seems to only play hard and give real effort in about every other game or so.

ust a bad storm away from a ten-win season so I can't equate that to a funk


7 teams in the SEC won 9 or more games this year, hell Georgia won 10.
6 Teams from the big ten won 9 or more games
and 4 teams from the big 12 won 9 or more.


Is winning 10 games really that impressive anymore?
maybe....maybe not...

Les is still Les
What the hell does this, singular isolated incident, have to do with this topic?

Trashy men punch women all the time. Them being there for SU football did not make him punch her...it had nothing to do with the event.

ot supporting either statement, but how is this different than saying areas of North Baton Rouge have bad crime?


My point is the Students and fans that are there to support SU are not the ppl that cause trouble and commit crimes...it's the locals from New Orleans area that come out. Same thing happen during Mardi gras, Super bowls etc

The same can be said for the North BR area...it isn't the students or fans who spend money that cause trouble...it's the locals that live in that area.

LSU is located in South Baton Rouge...Why aren't LSU fans and students lumped into that area of crime but SU students get lumped into North BR area of crime? South side BR isn't a pleasant place. It's gotten a lot better but still bad.

They are very insecure low life individuals. Their opinions do not reflect the masses, I hope.

Southern fans maybe.

LSU fans prefer the thrill of actual good games, for the most part, and that is who the Football program should be geared towards.



What the hell are you smoking?

LSU played Sam Houston in 2014
something named Furman in 2013
Towson in 2012

PLease Take your racist-shades off.

Attendance wise Southern crushes many of the lower level rent-a-wins LSU has on their schedule every year.
quote:

gnorant statement is ignorant. Southern football fans travel well, and are well-behaved. Ask USL, I mean ULL, what its like to host Southern for a football game. They've done it twice in the last six years and have drawn large, problem-free crowds. As for the Bayou Classic, Southern and Grambling actually have one of the friendliest rivalries you will see. The two fanbases get along very well.



Very correct...it's the New Orleans local hood rats that come out and mess stuff up.

Same thing happens for Mardi Gras and any other big time event in New Orleans.
