Romanowski admits using steroids

Soooo let me get this straight. The IRS can only complain that a guy " neglected, refused or failed" to pay his taxes to the tune of $15MM going back over 25 years?

What the fuck are the rest of us doing paying taxes then? I mean, if they aren't going to seize everything you own, throw you out into the street and go after you for criminal tax evasion, why fear them? Was it a strenuous complaint? Strongly worded? Make someone feel bad?

I'm at a loss here.
They reported their income correctly, so it will be up to negotiation or the courts to decide if the deductions were legitimate. So, no, they can't seize anything based on the allegations.

Why I'm Leave-ing Buckeye Planet (Hiking, Gardening, Nature Stuff Discussion)

BIG BEND NATIONAL PARK, Texas (KVIA) - A father and his two stepsons were hiking in the Marufo Vega Trail on June 23 in the extreme heat with temperatures of 119 degrees.

The Big Bend National Park's Communications Center staff says they received a emergency assistance call after the youngest teen fell ill and lost consciousness at 6 p.m.


According to a release from the national park, the father left the trail heading towards their vehicle to try to find help. The older brother tried to carry his brother back to the trailhead.

Park Rangers and U.S. Border Patrol Agents were able to reach the area at 7:30 p.m. and found the 14 year old boy dead.

The rescue team searched for the father and found that his vehicle had crashed over an embankment at the Boquillas Overlook with no signs of life.

University Athletic Departments Revenue & Spending

Call me crazy, but is #1 in expenses really a bragging right.
I guess orgs like this have a mandate to spend what they bring in, but it just seems counterintuitive to my small blue collar brain.
This is for all sports so given the number of sports and the fact only 1-2 of them are profitable the math checks out.

They also kick some back to the school after servicing all debt (facilities) if I am not mistaken

St. John Arena (Official Thread)

That was the school’s fault. They did not include the St John game in the season tickets or scarlet&gray pass, but never bothered to mention it. It was the day before the game when we realized we didn’t actually have tickets to the game and had to go buy them. The year before when the Cleveland State game was played there and they included the game with the season tickets, the place was rocking all night.
Sounds like maybe they wanted to make sure they had a reason to stop playing in St. Johns.

2026 FL ATH Efrem White (Verbal Offer)

https://florida.tfrrs.org/athletes/8371999/Vero_Beach/Efrem_White
He finished fifth in the state of Florida in the 110m high hurdles as a freshman
Some very impressive track numbers for anyone, let alone a frosh


https://www.tcpalm.com/story/sports...tball-recruiting-kicks-into-gear/69842206007/Efrem White, Vero Beach 2026 ATH
Vero Beach High School's E.J. White sprints into South Fork defenders in the first quarter as the Vero Beach High School Fighting Indians take on the South Fork Bulldogs on Friday, Aug. 26, 2022, at Billy Livings Field at the Citrus Bow in Vero Beach. Vero Beach won 54-6.

Coaches at Vero Beach felt before the season began in the fall that White would be an impact player right away and the freshman did not disappoint. Featured in a variety of roles from quarterback to cornerback and in the return game, White was responsible for 11 touchdowns in his first high school season.


At 6-foot-3, 160 pounds, White will have plenty of time to grow into his body and his athletic ability. He has caught the eyes of some of the country's elite. Alabama presented White with an offer on Jan. 23 and Pittsburgh did the same. A day later, Tennessee, Auburn and Illinois were next, and SMU jumped on board on Jan. 26. Add these to White's previous offers from North Carolina State, Florida State and USF.

Kevin (Tim “Asshat” Racadb) Warren (ex-B1G Commissioner)

Kujira, certainly get what you're saying. What you are doing is keeping those bridges 'built', maybe you'll return to former company as CEO someday. Also, professionalism in helping former company understanding what you did while there. Heck, they probably didn't appreciate what you did until you left (a common occurence). Resume building is key, and good references more key. Sounds like you touch all the bases. Congrats. PS, acted as a unpaid consultant for former company (Bendix subsidiary) for several months later for my developed expertise. Eventually, either someone got up to speed, or they deviated from direction. Never really did me any good, except for personal satisfaction (which counts).

OHIO STATE'S GREATEST TURTLE-THEMED RIVALRY TROPHY HAS BEEN SAVED VIA CLEVER SCHEDULING​

But when the Big Ten decided to go to a "Flex Protect Plus" schedule with the addition of USC and UCLA to the conference, Ohio State's not-rivalry with the Nittany Lions probably wasn't the stickiest of band-aids to rip off. OSU has exactly one protected rival that they'll play every season, Michigan, and the rest of the conference will rotate through.

Notably, Illinois will be back on the schedule in back-to-back years for the first time in almost a decade, and that means the turtle is back, baby!
