Never made it to Notre Dame. Got in trouble in HS, and couldn't enroll there. Transfered to FSU, but had to redshirt. Failed a drug test while on probation, then dismissed from FSU.

Sorry to hear about your cat. We have a cat. We live out on acreage so she's our farm cat. Stays outside. My wife brought her home from the vet. The vet called her and told her she had a rescued litter. She picked this one out. It's was solid bright white. We named her Lilly. I told her she wouldn't make it a week. Here we are 16 or 17 years later (we're not sure).

She's fallen on some hard times lately. She disappeared for a couple of days. We thought she was gone for good. She showed up and was in terrible shape. Looked like something had gotten a hold of her ear. She wouldn't let us check it out. It was all bloody and mangled. She left again the next day for another 24 hrs but came home. My wife finagled her into a carrier and took.her to the vet. She had a major infection in that ear and an abscess under it that was full of infection.

She doesn’t like being inside but we kept her in the sun room for a couple of days. She has never used a litter box and didn't go in the house. Let her out this morning and she's stayed in her little house.

Here she is after the vet visit..

But fans simply acknowledging biased officiating is prevalent in the sport changes nothing. As long as the dollars are flowing in, nothing changes. It would take millions of people checking out of the sport for the bottom line to suffer and that’s just not going to happen.

The people with the power and voice to change things are head coaches, AD’s, and university leadership. If a sizable coalition of coaches and AD’s in the conference came out and made a joint public statement with video evidence that publicly embarrassed the SEC, then things might change. Nobody is prepared to make such a stand right now, though.

If enough people.raised Cain about it , it would generate a spotlight on it. Eventually media.

He was highly recruited. Hubbs tells stories of his visit to UT. It was over winter, I think, and they asked Moss what he wanted to do. He said “go swimming” so they opened the aquatic center and he jumped off the high dive for hours.

He always wanted to go to Notre Dame; but, he did love UT, as well. We were right there in the mix for him, coming out of HS.

For the first time, I feel a Heupel team is helpless. Hadn’t felt that way before about Heupel and Tennessee because the offense has always been able to keep them in games.

I’m here too. That effort against Missouri really has me questioning the long term success of Heupel here. Just created a lot of doubt for me.

I have felt the same way all week. First feeling of apathy for a Heupel team.

Social media outrage would mean nothing if people are still watching the games. Besides, the media covers what it wants to cover. National media won’t create a firestorm about biased / crooked officiating when the Alabama’s, Georgia’s, Ohio State’s, and Michigan’s of the world are the biggest beneficiaries of said biased officiating.
