A bill 4 years ago changed the law to allow collection of 40% of medical bills instead of 100% if you had health insurance. Car insurance has gone up since then. This bill reduces 40 down to 20 and they expect us to believe this 20 is the “key” to lowering car insurance? Got it.

I wonder if the future model for college athletics will be that a coach assemble a team and then they all go to the highest paying school as a package deal. Who wants a national championship ? Here’s our price, pay us and we are on our way! #NCAA

July 4, 1776 a group of 56 wealthy men decided that freedom was more important than maintaining their comfort. They pledged their fortune and lives to the cause of establishing an independent nation. Most lost everything to see it through! #4thofJuly

It’s a scary time not knowing if those sent to protect Donald J. Trump were incompetent or directed to let it happen. It’s hard for me to wrap my mind around either. “America America, God shed his grace on thee, and crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea.”

It’s amazing to me how out of touch special interest groups are when it comes to legislators. I know for myself, if you spent the time between sessions attacking me you would likely never get my vote. Meeting, educating, and negotiating is the way to do it.

Coaching big time college players has to be hard today! The incentive for them to stand out as individuals has become more important than team success ? Why? Because attention, good or bad = money ! To be an elite coach requires managing that! Maybe more important than Xs and Os!

Real question! Do presidential debates actually change minds anymore ? I do believe at some point in history they did. Now I feel like they are only watched by decided voters who want to cheer on their candidate!

It’s so hard for elected officials to weather a one vote storm long enough to point to a body of work. It’s our fault not theirs. Our opinions are so easily swayed. Changing your region and state requires hard things to be done and it’s never accomplished over night!

A 10-2 team opting out because they didn’t get their way. It’s a summery of entitlement that goes far beyond sports. If I don’t get my way I quit. No wonder they have not won a National Championship in 37 year!

This is always an easy way to criticize Louisiana but the states over all tax Burden is ranked somewhere between 35th and 40th in the country depending on the year. It can always be better but it surely could be a lot worse. #lalege #lagov

If you ever wonder why so many athletes are among the least grounded people you will ever meet… it’s because of guidance like this at Ole Miss Football.
