    SmashMouth got a reaction from Tim Riggins in Lumberton - Chase McDonald named AD/HC   
    Yep. But we are talking about a 4A program whose previous few AD’s didn’t have a master’s either…not a Fortune 500 company. Where I work, our CFO, CEO President and all our VPs have Bachelor’s degrees only. A couple have no degree at all. It’s a very successful company that employs several thousand employees. A master’s isn’t necessary for the Lumberton AD/HC.

    Unrelated, but Navasota just conceded a questionable penalty with 2 min left in their second OT vs San Elizario.  Lost 1-0. Felt like poetic justice after they only advanced because of a blatant dive drawing a penalty in the final minute against lumberton boys.

    SmashMouth reacted to PAMFAM10 in Trump Running in 2024   
    I think the economics of this country is a crapshoot. (Honestly) I just believe that Biden is not physically/mentally up to play the role, rather have a president than a puppet. Trump is up in the polls he should stay away from the media and his ego and just ride the wave .

    SmashMouth reacted to PAMFAM10 in Trump Running in 2024   
    If it’s Biden or trump. And I have to choose. I’m leaning Trump. (I can’t believe this great country has given us these options. 342 millions Americans to choose from yet here we are)
    I don’t care what side of the line you stand, We could have done better.

    Still not as big as the ones in Nam.  Sounded like copters and would argue with each other.
    Should we eat him here or take him out in the jungle?  Heck no,  we take him out there the big ones will get him.

    And just like that, the  outrage puzzle has been solved (and I’m not being facetious - the best solutions are the simplest).

    Someone may have already posted this, but "they" should mandate the National Anthem be the last thing before tip-off so all have the chance to be present. At that point, there are no more excuses.

    Standing is not the issue.  Mulkey, for anyone who knows anything about her, would never allow kneeling.  I would think anyone with any connection to Baylor would know that.  The issue is the practice across college basketball, men’s and women’s, of being in the locker room going over game plans, praying (for LSU at least), etc., when the anthem is played.  Just like apparently Iowa was as well last year when they played.  The issue is clickbait articles talking about a team “walking off the floor” during the anthem (while attaching a video showing nothing of the sort because that was a bold faced lie) and dolts being gullible enough to fall for a headline and share it across social media until it becomes “fact.”  The issue is calling maybe the most politically conservative coach in the sport “woke” because again, well clicks.  But such is the “low information” society we live in I guess. 
     
    And for the record LRF, I would prefer the teams being out there standing when the anthem and school songs are played, just like in football, baseball, etc.  I’m guessing that will become the norm now and that should have been the story, not the deceiving one that has been circulated.  So perhaps some good will come of it. I’m not even an LSU fan and am glad we get to see another game or two of Clark.  But if anyone did an ounce of research before posting this trash, they could indict almost every (if not literally every) D1 CBB coach in the country.

    SmashMouth reacted to LumRaiderFan in Space? Waste of money?   
    I don't want the government confiscating money from me to better humanity, the best way "extra" funds should be allocated to better humanity is to leave it in the taxpayer's pocket and not take it at all.
    The thought of government taking unallocated taxes and deciding how best to spend it makes me sick.
    Now, back to space before the "you're off topic" police show up, lol.

    YES of course they are.

    I doubt that anyone (or not very many) would disagree with that sentiment.
    It would be jail however and not prison…. unless it was an 8th grader.

    SmashMouth got a reaction from bullets13 in Jasper to return to 5 day school week   
    I grew up in a military family (Dad was a Marine), and I went to elementary school in San Diego for several years. We went to school for 12 weeks and then off for 4 weeks (60/20 schedule) with 4 rotating tracks (Track A off, Tracks B, C & D were on and so forth). But that's back in the mid-70's when there were a lot more stay at home moms, all the school kids' families were mostly lower middle income at least and there were great communities of military families in our military housing that could help each other out. I can't imagine that type of schedule these days.

    Ironic. After our 3rd child was born, we decided that it would be better to stop daycare due to cost (mostly), and have my wife stay home with the kids. Not everyone can afford that... Luckily, @Box1 can tell us how we "have no idea or understanding on how anything works".

    I got a little defensive.  I wasn't trying to belittle the job itself or people who do it, and made my point in a poor way.  And I respect y'all's arguments about 5-day weeks.  I do think people tend to overestimate the effect it'll have on the average family, though.

    Here is my cent and a half.....
    I can only speak for me, but the wife and I both work. We used a daycare before he was in school and a couple hours in the afternoons when he was in school, until he was old enough to stay at home.  We hated summers because daycare went up because he was there more. I often thought if I had 3 kids, it would be cheaper for the wife to quit her job......Adding 52 (rounding up) full days to an already expensive bill could be devastating for some people.  Personally I like the 5 day school week, it mirrors most jobs they may get when they become adults.
