You should check your meter readings. My neighbor was getting bills of ~$120 a month and her heat was off the entire winter. Turns out the meters were swapped and she was paying for someone else's electricity.

i'm thinking Charlotte would be a great place to get all the NC kids...maybe coordinate with UNC-Charlotte on their campus
I live in a small, 1950's house in Arlington. It is VERY energy inefficient and we turn off lights, try to be reasonable with the thermostat, CFL's, whatever, and we still have a bill of 250-300 a month. Not unreasonable.
But they'll consider one that is 5+ states away part of it?
lol ok
So his mom's hometowns electricity rate is 11.42 cents kW/hr. So someone a lot smarter than me figure out what that means.
He does have an assault arrest also. I think once you add everything up it could be a lot for a team to deal with once he is in the organization.
Not sure, but I'd just go regardless. In the 2 or 3 games that I went to a few years ago, I saw the likes of Mookie Betts, Jackie Bradley, Jr, Xander Bogaerts, Christian Vasquez, Junichi Tazawa and Travis Shaw; all of which are playing in Boston right now.
I was straight up terrified as to what was gonna happen to you until I read the punchline. That's awesome

# | ODU to Host Penn State, Maryland and Michigan in June; Coach Wilder Said He Would Call Coaches Fuente and Mendenhall to Attend investment? no one is paying taxes in hopes of the top football recruits coming to Virginia Tech. These kids do not owe anything to any in state school. Not to mention most people wouldn't consider a place that is a 5+ hour drive away part of their community
We keep our thermostat on 68 in the winter and have all flourescent light bulbs. We do everything we can to save electricity and thus save money. What I'm trying to say is there are some variables in electric bills that you can't control. I don't think it's fair to say she ran up that bill intentionally especially when you consider the circumstances some of these guys come from. I wouldn't be surprised if their house was just as energy inefficient as mine.
Hahaha legs to the both of you! I think you just shattered glass on my TKP snarkiness...

And UVA still sucks
Or if Memphis had a number of blowouts last year and used their 4th stringer to soak up carries late.
Totally agree - but this is just another aspect of the hypocrisy that is the NCAA/College Football.
The problem wasn't that they rotated backs. The problem was that of the backs in the rotation last year only one of them was good. Edmunds looked like he was running in mud and Coleman couldn't find an open hole.
I was thinking the same thing. He knows the NCAA can't touch him now that he left school so why not go ahead and admit everything. A part of me says this is a dick move and shows he is loyal only to himself. The other part of me says Ole Miss deserves this for paying for loyalty rather than earning it. Really the model of the NCAA needs a complete overhaul. They need to admit they are a NFL minor league and work some deal with them to allow for post-college fines and suspensions, it really the only way they can punish the correct participants in all of these infractions cases. The basic strategy now is cheat until you get caught, then go pro before the NCAA can slap your wrist.
Laremy has a lot on his plate. His stepfather is suing him, his facemask bong video was released right before the draft, his attempt to get money from Ole Miss was released during the draft, and he was interviewing about his selection by the Dolphins when he was confronted with the Ole Miss video.
I, for one, thought he did well enough in answering the questions that were posed to him about all of this trouble while he should have been able to revel in his draft day a little more. I question whether he understood the implications of his admission about the videos but he didn't duck the questions - I thought he came across as honest and genuine, potentially to a fault. I'll take someone who is honest about their mistakes any day of the week. I was actually surprised he didn't hesitate to admit it was him, even though his identity couldn't be 100% confirmed from the video. Side note, it's too bad that this statement is fake because it is awesome.
Polian said that he thought that all the GMs would have known about all of this already. I doubt GMs care at all about NCAA violations like asking for money. I don't think GMs care too much about cannabis use while you are in college, as long as you corral it better than Josh Gordon or Johnny Manziel once you get to the pros. (I'd be way more concerned with Noah Spence and his alleged MDMA use than anything else). As long as you don't have any violence against women, anger management, or multiple hard drug abuse issues in your past, I think GMs generally don't get too much in a twist about it .
I'll say this, though, is that Laremy needs a new set of people around him in his life. Good luck to him, I hope this is as rocky as it gets for him.
Ole Miss, on the other hand...bring the hammer! Woo!
I'm sorry :(

There is always room for a gif!
You're totally right, but I am probably in the minority in thinking that if a student-athlete isn't prepared academically to be at a D1 school, regardless of their talent, then they shouldn't be at a D1 school. That's what JUCO, and prep school is for.
didn't get in trouble for this, but sometime my sophomore year me and some friends in east AJ got on this kick of lighting a puddle of hand sanitizer on fire, then spraying compressed air/keyboard cleaner/whatever it's called over it and making a flame thrower.
Sometime that year, a water main or something broke over by litton reaves and we lost power on that side of campus. With it being pitch black at night, we would shoot the "flame thrower" out the windows facing west AJ. One of us went outside to watch, looked like a blast from a cannon.
no drinking involved. Not sure if this makes it worse or not...
But they deserved and earned all the money they got /s
But I assume you did that because you know you can afford it. I can absolutely afford to pay more for electricity too, but I choose to keep my heat low because I don't like spending money. If his mom can't afford $305 then she was taking advantage of the system knowing that his coaches would cover it. And keep in mind that I live through extremely harsh conditions in Wyoming with leaky windows but keep my heat bill in the dead of winter extremely low. I can see how $305 is possible, but it's obvious she was living beyond her means because the coaches would take care of it.

Something about the phrasing of this post in context to th one before it is off
