I havent had pizza rolls since biting into one that burned the roof of my mouth with molten lava.

#neveragain

I wish I had the same restraint. But just like with tequila, I keep on coming back to it.

Is this real?

Also, someone should make a website called aidetector where you could upload any media and have it scanned to determine real or fake. We’re getting to that point with things. Insane how quickly AI is progressing.

Think he just means for game vs Syracuse

Thanks for the clarification.........

It is real. Apparently the kid is playing for Purdue now and got kicked off of the Memphis team for stealing stuff from his teammates.

Also good idea but sadly it is nearly impossible to detect the usage of AI nowadays. Even AI generated videos have recently started to become indistinguishable from real ones. We are quickly approaching a world where even video evidence may be insufficient to prove your innocence in court because they can’t prove it’s not AI.

The Boo situation is incredibly frustrating and disappoint and just another notch against modern college sports. This was probably going to be a small stepback year regardless but of course it happened in an area where we were already razor thin.

Yes, please

My mother sent me so many fake images of “celebrities” supposedly helping during the TX flood. Like look at Dolly and Carrie Underwood in this raft in the pouring rain helping out. She legitimately thought the images were real. I still don’t think she believed me when I pointed out the images were fake.

Talked to a guy in the parking lot at work I’ve known for years about Boo Carter… and realized he’s a fellow MORAN!

I’m almost ashamed to admit I hesitated to tell him I post too. Gotta protect the online anonymity. No social media for me either.

Small world, huh @norrislakevol?

Hey bud! You should post more often. Good chatting with you today in person sir. Small world indeed.

Another small world story from this week: I had text an ex about something funny. She then replies with a picture with her and another gal. The caption says: "Hung out with this pretty lady today". It was someone else I had went out with. I'm sure great things were said about me between them. Hahahaha!

 

[norrislakevol]

Heard @norrislakevol is built like a mix between arnold and Lou Ferrigno

Hell I wish! I am getting older, and them "gains" are MUCH harder to come by.

That's also known as "pulling a Patrick Reed".

Good lord lol. That sounds like they trauma bonded over you
That’ll teach you to stop dating sisters.

Dolly would have been totally safe with that great set of flotation devices.

Boo is a headcase, this would’ve happen if it was 2010. Those type of kids have always been around, we knew in HS that he was high maintenance. All was well until this summer, oh well. Make sure he turns in that 100k Mercedes he’s riding around in. Good luck kid

Edit: imagine wanting to play for Prime and he’s not been in Colorado all summer lol. I bet they consist of Warren Sapp running around reminding everyone, from coaches to players, that he has a gold jacket.

She even sent me one of Saban supposedly helping. He was walking in waist high water carrying a dog over his head. It was so obvious it was fake but my mother sure thought it was real.

Not sure you can expect the coaches to keep something quiet in a locker room of 80+ players and dozens of support staff that all have social media accounts. If something is going on, it is going to get out. Heck, Basilio and his ilk probably get their info from the laundry guys.

Thats fair, but it’s not the players doing this. Without Boos moms social media post, does this even become a public matter? Institutional control does exist and the very best do it well, where things don’t become online articles unless the law has charged someone. Whereas our media seems hell bent on exposing weakness in our program. With the lack of integrity in journalism these days, I just figured they’d be more tight lipped, not less.

How can our coaches or media personnel control what Boo Carter's mom posts on social media? There was nothing really anyone but Boo and his family/crew could've done to prevent this

 

[LaagerVol]

So it's intentional. Will file that away.

I recall one near the goal line in one game where he took the guy on pretty good and gained a yard or two.

He always gained yardage, and generally put the guy on his back, but there was always a hesitation before the hit that lessened the collision

I mean look at the end of the day Tony Basilio was the first to leak this situation. Boo’s Mom tweeting about gang stuff was out for 5 days and no one caught on or said anything to make it relevant. Tony brought it to the spot light and that caused controversy. Sure, later another tweet from Boo’s mom came out confirming the speculations, but to think it was boo’s family that started this is not true.

 

[LaagerVol]

Kids that have only been exposed to family members who make a lifetime of bad decisions don't automatically magically turn around when they show up at college. The easiest and laziest thing to do is just toss them aside. At the same time you have to weigh their personal issues against the negative effect on the team. Any of us that worked with these kids for any length of time have long lists of tough decisions that had to be made and long lists of kids who were bound and determined to listen to the wrong people. The Hope is this young man can get his head screwed on right, make amends and turn himself around. Whatever Coach decides, dismissal, suspension for a time, etc I think he has earned the right to be supported by the fans no matter what it does to the "depth chart". What makes it difficult for a lot of programs right now is the Colorado Clown Show that kids are convinced they can run to and feel like coaches relate more to them (BS) and that they will have less accountability (also BS I believe). No easy answers for this situation, and anyone that thinks they have one has never really had to make these kinds of decisions.

Excellent post

Whatever you say buddy! We don’t judge here.

Basilio wasn't the first. It was a random posteron TOS. basilio ran with it acting like he was the first. That's why people don't like basilio. He takes credit for other people's work
