If you're walking through a parking lot and you see someone breaking into your car. . . if you yell "police, get on the ground or I'll shoot", or something like that to try and stop them. . . could you be arrested for impersonating an officer?

I think no, unless the person 'breaking into' your car is a police officer with a search warrant. But even then, there are rules and laws governing search and seizure.

I would think that a defense attorney may be able to dismiss charges as someone was under duress. Id say by that point the police would drop all charges, esp if in a bigger City under the 'this is dumb' law.

I won't be surprised if Transfer Portalees start doing the hat ceremony when they pick a school. Some drama queen is going to do it, probably someone going to Colorado.

Vikings wanting to trade up to #3 pick to draft J.J. McCarthy.

Teams wanting J.J. as bad as ever @butchna

Giants looking to move up to the #3 slot as well.

I’d be tickled pink if someone gave the titans a ransom for 7 to trade back

If the state school has you on payroll for playing on the state school's football team?

They possibly could be considered a self employed contractor, but if they the employed by a state agency they are state employees.

If they're independent contractors, that would separate them from the student part of "student athletes", wouldn't it?

At what point are they hired to play sports and no longer expected to actually enroll in the university? I suppose they could technically do that, but I dont think any university would ever allow it.

IDK universities will do a lot for money.

Say what? Was he even in the portal for 48 hours?

In the context you gave, no.

That's what just got cut... like $70+ a month is a bit steep for just wanting 6-8 channels I thought.

What was it running?

$83.84/monthly

I don't know which is scarier though, a trained cop who knows and generally lives by the rules, or a some dude with a handgun stressing over a heathen getting fingerprints on his pride and joy.

April 23, 1985


New Coke: "Coca-Cola, which had been the world’s bestselling soft drink, had been facing increasing competition from rival cola Pepsi, and the company wanted to re-energize the brand. In blind taste tests, consumers generally preferred New Coke over Pepsi and the original Coke. But, consumers had a sentimental attachment to their beloved brand and reacted very negatively to New Coke. The company was flooded with up to 8,00 calls a day from dissatisfied consumers and received some 40,000 complaint letters. CEO Roberto Goizueta got a letter addressed to “Chief Dodo, The Coca-Cola Company.”

The soda company quickly got the message and brought back the original formula less than three months after New Coke launched. On July 11, 1985, 79 days after the release of New Coke, Coke’s original formula returned to market, rebranded as Coca-Cola Classic. It quickly regained its status as the dominant cola.


Biggest marketing blunder in history.....................or...................Greatest marketing strategy in history







Either way.......Pepsi and RC Cola are better

This..right here...is the biggest massive downside to all this chaos...quality experienced depth will become non-existent for most, if not all programs.

Which means...injuries are going to make huge differences in outcomes.

Outside of the very few programs that will be able to afford to keep everybody they want...The teams that are lucky enough to have very few starter injuries, or the teams that have the rare freshmen that can play consistent quality football when a starter goes down for any length of time, will be the teams that win big.

Fingerprints and breaking in are two totally different things.

I'm just guessing here, but since it's 5 sheets of paper it might have to do with hoops since Barnes has 5 spots to fill.

Tucker Anderson a 6'10" forward from Central Arkansas visiting Vols later this week.

I was thinking along those lines.

No, last post means we may be one of the few teams that can keep depth.

AP is a football guy and we used to watch the fax machine on signing day. My guess is 5 football commits.

AP is knee deep in portal news for Lady Vols and Vols basketball as well at the moment.
