The State of Mississippi was slammed pretty hard it appears.

Their football team just got about $30M from the CFP. But I guess they don’t want to part with any of that and would rather steal Clemson’s players.

Oh, I don't know? I like stealing players from Bama, Penn St, Miami, Georgia too.

You must not have seen Dabo’s press conference. He aired everything out in public and turned Ole Miss in for tampering. Doubt the NCAA will do anything though.

Did you know they are bringing back a spin-off of TBBT? Not sure when its to air.
I couldn't really get into that 70s Show but I thought Mila Kunis was hot back then.
My wife loved it though. I couldn't even get into Seinfeld back then but I watch the reruns like heck all the time now.

The only reason I started watching TBBT was bc of Kaley Cuoco who played Penny.
Matter of fact, I have that show on now watching it.

I saw it but didn't stop to hear what he was saying. I don't care about Dabo.

Hey, @MAD ... were you lucky enough to get a big toe cold?

You might ought to because it could happen to us if the NCAA decides to not do anything about it. Clemson had a player enrolled, taking classes, already bought a car and rented an apartment, the Ole Miss head coach flat out texted the player while he was in his 8am class at Clemson. Asked “I know you are signed but what’s the buyout?” Accompanied by a picture of a $1M contract. The player initially declined the offer and said he had no intention of leaving but the Ole Miss coach upped the offer by 2x the original offer. The player then goes to Clemson’s compliance office and states he wants to re-enter the portal. Blatant tampering.

That looks like the forecast for the upcoming Sunday. Florida had pretty nice weather this weekend while the rest of the country dealt with the Ice Age.

Currently 12 degrees where I’m at and will only be 14 whenever I wake up. Yayyy

I'm too old to care. I can't do anything when & if it happens. If this happens
to us (by chance) what are we to do but bitch & gripe hard it happened.

I'm at 8 degrees w/a -2. And I'm retired & sleep until 10 am each morning.
I have a pet cat that loves being outside in this cold weather. Beats me.

For the fans that donate to NIL, I’m sure they will be very upset. I refuse to give any of these players money. Even the jerseys I have purchased in recent years don’t have a number or name on the back. Don’t think I’ve been to a game at Neyland since NIL started, only a couple of bowl games which don’t add the “talent fee” for tickets. To heck with these “kids”. I only root for the T nowadays and even that is starting to wane.

Have you ever had gator? What’s it taste like?

 

[MAD]

Is this exploding trees something that just started happening this year? Never ever heard of such a thing until this week.

Donate money to NIL? Screw that.

It tastes like chicken is what I heard. The tail meat is really good cooked right.
I think you can get gator meat down in Louisiana in a restaurant for supper.

Most Cajun restaurants have it on the menu down here. Usually chopped in small bits then fried in seasoned batter.
