With a week to reflect, I’m convinced this was the greatest moment in sports history.

— SMB Attorney (@SMB_Attorney) January 31, 2026 The Indiana quarterback was/is not the most athletic player on the field this year. He was good no doubt but I think he proved a winner by being disciplined to a T. The whole team did. I can't think of any big time game Indiana was in this year where they had the superior athlete. Not one.
What they did have in spades was superior discipline.
The old saying that discipline trumps talent was proven once again.  Don't get me wrong.  Indiana has good players.  SOME NFL level talent players.  But few that knock your socks off.
They had the second thing that is proven for success.  They had superior EFFORT.
Finally they had a no quit attitude.  In the one or two tight games they were involved in, they maintained the discipline, effort and combined it with a no quit attitude to overcome/overwhelm their opponent in the end.
I started watching them late in the season but they gave a condensed life lesson to many youngsters.
The implications for college football and LSU football is immense.
We have Kiffin now a proven winner...but so was Kelly.  Kiffin supposedly has the drive and determination AND WORK ETHIC that Kelly didn't.
That alone points to success or rather MUCH more success than we had under Kelly.
But with the blue print we were just given will that be enough?  Yeah we just bought one of the most expensive rosters in the nation.
We have talent coming out our ass but is that enough if we don't have discipline, effort and a no quit attitude?
I'm a little concerned.
That Indiana coach rewound the clock and is onto something.  He added missing ingredients to his team (along with good players) and made something special. Not as good as our 2019 team but definitely in the top 5.
Kiffin brings swagger (don't know how to quantify that).  Kiffin brought in talent.  Kiffin has a brain trust out of this world on both sides of the ball.
But if we don't have discipline, effort and a no quit attitude then this team will not deliver what everyone in my state expects which is a National Title.

Elected or dictator. Doesn't really matter in the Middle East or Africa as long as the leadership bows to Globalist interests and to be blunt, independence is not what they want.
After seeing this instagram post I hit a quick search and landed on the Wiki page. I don't got time so I wanted the quick and dirty.  What I found was a mind fuck. We've been fucking with Iran for a VERY LONG TIME. Check this.In the aftermath of the overthrow, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi returned to power, and negotiated the Consortium Agreement of 1954 with the British, which gave split ownership of Iranian oil production between Iran and Western companies until 1979.[12] Mosaddegh was subsequently charged with treason, imprisoned for three years, then put under house arrest until his death and was buried in his own home in order to prevent a political furor.[13][14] In 2013, the United States government formally acknowledged its role in the coup as being a part of its foreign policy initiatives, including paying protesters and bribing officials.[15]

How similar does that look to what's happening NOW?

Nuclear weapons and terrorism is the hook.  It worked in Iraq.  A modified version worked in Libya (I know it was different now but was just jazzed up by the military intervention and ignored various reports about it being about something else entirely). 

I'm on the ledge on this one and need right wing/military dudes to walk me back.

In 1933, Butler became involved in a controversy known as the Business Plot, when he told a United States congressional committee that a group of wealthy American industrialists were planning a coup d'état to overthrow President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Butler also claimed that the plotters of the alleged coup intended on using Butler, at the head of a group of veterans, to place the federal government under arrest. The individuals alleged to be involved in the coup all denied the existence of such a plot and the media ridiculed Butler's allegations, but a final report following an investigation by a special House of Representatives committee confirmed at least some of his testimony.

After retiring from the Marine Corps, Butler became an outspoken critic of American foreign policy and military interventions, which he saw being driven primarily by U.S. business interests. In 1935, Butler wrote the book War Is a Racket, where he argued that imperialist motivations had been the cause behind several American interventions, many of which he personally participated in.

Smedley Butler's voice is speaking so loud in my brain that I almost can't see straight and its damn near giving me vertigo.

Are we getting played?  Are there things lurking in the background of all this that we're missing?  

Trump portrays himself as the anti-war president (I do believe that's his instinct but Venezuela has me kinda paused up...the fight to rid ourselves of a dictator has taken a quick swing to controlling the oil) but damn...the fights are limited but seem to be picking up speed.

Is the looming strike against Iran about nuclear weapons/ballistic missiles or is it about something else entirely that we're missing???

Anyone remember yellow cake uranium and how a man of honor was used to push that narrative? 

Tell me this is useless speculation and to stop spinning like a top.
