  1. Briefly, here is the law in Louisiana regarding sovereign immunity: §10. Suits Against the State Section 10.(A) No Immunity in Contract and Tort. Neither the state, a state agency, nor a political subdivision shall be immune from suit and liability in contract or for injury to person or property. (B) Waiver in Other Suits. The legislature may authorize other suits against the state, a state agency, or a political subdivision. A measure authorizing suit shall waive immunity from suit and liability. (C) Limitations; Procedure; Judgments. Notwithstanding Paragraph (A) or (B) or any other provision of this constitution, the legislature by law may limit or provide for the extent of liability of the state, a state agency, or a political subdivision in all cases, including the circumstances giving rise to liability and the kinds and amounts of recoverable damages. It shall provide a procedure for suits against the state, a state agency, or a political subdivision and provide for the effect of a judgment, but no public property or public funds shall be subject to seizure. The legislature may provide that such limitations, procedures, and effects of judgments shall be applicable to existing as well as future claims. No judgment against the state, a state agency, or a political subdivision shall be exigible, payable, or paid except from funds appropriated therefor by the legislature or by the political subdivision against which the judgment is rendered. So, let's suppose when Kelly prevails for the entire amount plus attorney's fees, how to collect it? He can't lien nor foreclose upon any property owned by the state or its agencies (Like LSU). Would his mouthpieces then be forced to lobby the state's legislature for an appropriation bill to fund the judgment? Is LSU dumb enough to go that far? Then again, Governor Kingfisher Jr. is involved so who knows?
  2. Since 2020 in non-conference games, (including next year) we have played, amongst other teams, UTEP, Texas State, Louisiana, Rice, Wyoming, Louisiana-Monroe, San Jose State, Sam Houston. Whoever the chowderhead was who said we could not schedule UNLV (which is comparable competition) in a one off game in Vegas to allow our fanbase to defile itself in every way possible is loony tunes. Bring on sin and debauchery!
  3. (2) the creation of a privatized business entity to better monetize the league’s assets (Big Ten Enterprises); What this actually means is that the PE boys have found a way they believe will increase the likelihood to achieve their expected return of investment while minimizing the risk. If you have unlimited control over this moneymaking venture, that is less susceptible to the whims of television contracts with the future unknown as to how media ad revenue will be generated.
  4. So, every single person on the face of the earth hates Vegas? That must have been quite the task to find an organization so vast that it literally spoke to everyone on Planet Earth to ascertain their opinion on the merits of Las Vegas. The diversity of restaurants (non-touristy) is very impressive. As are the shows. If you have not been inside the Sphere, it is definitely worth the experience. Try a restaurant called "Sinatra" inside Encore. Quite good. Desert golf. A number of Cirque shows. A number of the spas are excellent. And for those who gamble (except for single deck blackjack, I don't) there is that too. So, you are correct ... if you take away all of the entertainment options and gambling ... it is just like the plastic shitshow built by Jughead.
  5. All you Surly assholes give your kids (no matter their age) a call today/tonight and tell them you love them. That you were simply thinking about them and want them to know how important they are to you. I called my son today and had a long talk with him. We are just now beginning to learn so much more about mental health issues and the biology in the brain. Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, combined with certain type of ketamine infusions have shown promise in addressing some symptoms of CTE, depression and other mental health issues. Research is on-going about micro-implants in certain parts of the brain to regulate electrical pulses and blood flow. Whatever the mental health issue is, the reality is they can no longer simply be talked out combined with traditional pharmaceutical intervention. Lecture over. Go give your kids a hug, assholes. Oh...here is an interesting article on some of these treatment regimens. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11205489/
  6. Vandy's version of two in the pink ... ?
  7. Obligatory ... was Georgia even a state then? (from a fellow Olds)
  8. From a brisk North Dallas ... TEXAS !!!
  9. well ... shit ... 9 years ago tonight, I joined a club in which no parent should ever have to belong. Perhaps writing for me is cathartic. Go hug your child and tell them you love them today. https://adadsjourneywitheatingdisorders.home.blog/2025/10/30/nine-years-beyond-the-darkest-night-grief-truth-and-hope-for-greater-tomorrows/
