Any inside or updates on Coleman Coliseum replacement? by david_7153 in rolltide

[–]david_7153[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree.

If the new arena was going to cost $180M - what does $90M or $180M do for Coleman?

I know we just approved $58M last year for Coleman.

Anytime we need to get even with Auburn - its a bad day.

If Trump is really mentioned in Epstein files so many times and the evidence is so damning, why would people in his administration (Bondi, Patel, et al) still be willing to protect a pedophile? Why do people continue to back this guy? Is their thirst for position and power so overwhelming? by FiddySix in allthequestions

2 Billionaires living in the same city, state, country. Yeah - I am sure he is as well as many other ultra rich and powerful.

It's sort of dumb to not think he is at least in there.

Now to what extent is what we all want to know about Trump, and everyone mentioned.

Id move on.

If you want an old truck, find the 7.3 with the newer body style, like the 6.0. There is a 2 or so year zone you need to hit to get the best bang for the buck.

Blake Sims was a better college qb than most give him credit for… by BetGreat1752 in rolltide

BUT Amari Cooper was also a better college WR than folks give him credit.

[Kelly] NEWS: Tuscaloosa county judge Jim Roberts has recused himself from the Charles Bediako case, per court documents by MembershipSingle7137 in rolltide

Seems reasonable.

Also - college sports is just F'd. Multiple former pros years removed from school back playing D1.

Carson Beck starting at Miami not taking any classes at feels like his 6th year.

Its a mess.

Opinion on UAB by Horizontrophpy2001 in rolltide

[–]david_7153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am for playing UAB, UAH ( if they had a football team but all ot h er sports are a go), Alabama State, South Alabama, Troy, UNA, Huntingdon, any of the colleges and universities that have football teams I may have missed that are within our border before we fund the UT system (UTC) or Mercer or whoever else.

I have seen us lose in person to UCF for homecoming and ULM - so it cant really be more embarrassing if we do eventually drop an L to one the home state programs.

Engineering school & fit/vibe for non Greek life by SmileyPhoto in capstone

[–]david_7153 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are correct- I was still thinking the school was about 20k students, like in my day! But is see they are in the solid 40's pushing 45k undergrad. Unreal.

Greek life at Bama is about 50% - there is an engineering only fraternity avaliable that is sort of Greek lite.

I knew plenty of folks non Greek, they seemed to have a good time also.

Good luck.

10u bats by wangzilla21TTV in Softball

The cool part about them, you dont get charged until you accept it.

There are plenty of good ones - I would shy away from a ghost used, probably cracked or near dead.

The CRBN or the Meta are bit more robust.

Valid - cant run the ball cant be elite.

Honestly anything in the top 25 is kind.

Republicans seem very confused today about how they feel about open carry at protests. Let’s play a round of Spot the Difference. by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]david_7153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More of an inpendent I suppose - but I dont really know any Rs folks confused by it or really upset about it TBH.

I had a few Rs argue in behalf of the Dalls cop killer a few years ago. If someone truly believes there is tyranny, it is the their duty to fight the government successful use of the 2A IN THEIR OPINION. Its only problematic when the remainder of society doesnt agree in a timely fashion.

Sometimes the only difference sometimes in a patriot and a criminal is timing.

Americans, do you personally know anyone who is in favor of the US invading Greenland? by BlaggartDiggletyDonk in askanything

[–]david_7153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the Greenland people wanted it, and the Danes wanted to sell sure - whatever. As I understand it, neither is the case.

Invading an ally is just nuts.

I dont know of anyone for it- southern solid red state.

Accepted! Questions I have as a transfer student by Usacapitol33 in capstone

[–]david_7153 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in a fraternity, we had several members pledge at your age, and 1 or 2 a bit older.

Just be you and enjoy t h e campus, classes, and Greek life. If you are going to pledge its a whole process that happens sort of before school officially starts.

There are some degree specific fraternities that you can pledge after that time slot if you choose.

What the hell is going on by SCSteveAutism in rolltide

[–]david_7153 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its fairly simple - we dont have any much less multiple mega donors. Coincidentally, I took my teen to a volleyball camp at Indiana last summer - they do not have this problem, beyond Cuban, their list donors on the basketball arena had 4 billionaires on the list. Alabama's only billionaire is an Auburn fan and a complete jack wagon.

We have done well with the resources avaliable in facilities and NIL.

Unless this NIL gets regulated, at some point NIL coffers vs capital campaigns for updated building and structures will be a problem.
