And I got a 3% bump yet….silly job

Buccos go down 5-1 early, in years past i would have shut it off and been done, but i found myself sticking with it, they fought back and though they ended up short, they made it a game. they had a prime chance to walk it off with 2 on 1 out in the bottom 9th, but just fell short. its going to be a fun summer!

The Slidell Tomato Gumbos are playing worse than LSU baseball this year...

I'm willing to bet that many people on this board have either participated, or come damn close to participating, in many of the moral behaviors discussed. I think the problem arises when people put sports people on a pedestal and then expect them to act according to the moral compass that they think people on that pedestal should follow. I want to be clear...Vrabel's behavior suggests that he does not interpret the importance of several values in the same way as many people here do...and further that he is going down a path that will lead ultimately to some serious issues in his life. If this is true, it will probably affect his performance as a coach, at least for a period of time.

We know what wins in the end, almost all of the time.

From what I've read Vandy's offer was substantially higher than the others.

Which is cheaper, paying for 2-3 years of development or signing a MAC TE and paying him for a year or two?

It’s just my opinion…..I get it.

Russini has now resigned from her job while Vrabel marches on. I guess it probably impacts her more as a journalist…..the impropriety of it all makes her look terrible.

On the Treyveon situation though……I don’t think Vrabel is now incapable of giving advice or being a team leader…it’s more nuanced though, IMO. He loses credibility in the locker-room when he’s out making shitty decisions.

Again, I’m a huge Vrabel fan…..but he does dumb shit at times and this is the latest occurrence. For those who’ve forgotten, Google “Mike Vrabel snack bar arrest”.

Well that's dumb. That's like saying someone can't help you study for a math test because they failed a science test. Unless Vrable said "you have to listen to me because I'm a perfect person....", one has nothing to do with the other.

95.7%
...hope to finish

Fucking Cleveland 2 run HR in the &th and then Brito boots the 3rd out to score a run for the tie. Then can’t score in the 10th and allow St Louis a wp then sac fly. Most frustrating 2 innings I’ve seen in a while. Just gave them the game

still annoys the fuck out of me that those 2 plays from Cruz weren't ruled errors

Right???

First play in game was fire. Hornets 127 Heat 126 in OT. Enjoy seeing Miami out.

Reportedly there is a 65% increase in price in the basketball portal compared to one year ago (i.e., a player valued at $1M/yr in 2025 is now at $1.65M/yr). An additional insight is that bigs are being paid $1M/yr more than other positions, suggesting perhaps the most plausible way to build a successful roster with limited resources would involve finding a token big man and investing in elite guards/wings instead.

One last steaming turd to end the season.

Being able to cross state lines and not being barred from working in your industry anymore are big events in some peoples lives.

$275 million seems like a lot for a 1,600 seat auditorium. But then again, I think $105 is a lot for a polo shirt, so what do I know?

Because those two things have nothing to do with each other?

No, they do. Especially when you come at it with a 'faith backed' approach.

I'm positive Trey hasn't been a shining example of Christianity (I was raised in just this environment. Athletics+baptist church+ football) Just as Vrabes hasn't been a shining example of morality with potential infidelity.

But people love looking to others hearts before their own.

Truth be told, both of our Buckeyes, like 75% of most people, are probably full of shit.
