I've had some cough-cough "debates" with BWK in the past....but y'all need to lighten up. He's proud of his son. If you have a problem with how he expresses it, think about skipping that thread. He posts enough on other topics....there are plenty of chances to argue with him on less personal topics. There are worse things in the world than having a dad think highly of his kid.

BWK we are at 142. We will be later than usual....prolly not there till after 2....

Hopefully I can pass by if the EOW floods don't take us all away. What is your favorite beverage? I can grab a couple for a toast.

[Bandwagon King]

Dude this is no longer about your kid.
This is about you being a ____ing horsesass. I didn't say a damn thing to be accussed of having an elititst attitude. It's a ____ing fact that LCA is a new comer to LHSAA. Is that not a fact? Get over yourself man.

Thanks for the confirmation. Elitist.

I'm just getting your goat man. You are really taking this hard. BTW, the Saints are elite brother. 18 hours to kick off. Go Cajuns.

From what you post, your son sounds like a physical specimen and a great football prospect. As I have said in other threads, "I wish him nothing but the best" and "Congrats to both you and your son".

With that being said... when you post:

..there isn't a single college football program in America that my son's contributions wouldn't help improve.

He is not only one of the best if not the very best offensive tackle in the state of Louisiana. He is quite possibly the best defensive tackle in the state of Louisiana.

Those are high expectations for a teenager to live up to. It sounds as if you are almost saying your son is NFL ready.

For those of us who do not know you, it sounds like you are trying to live out your dreams through your son when you post:

I can't deny it. I used to pray & ask God to make me big like my brothers so I could reep havoc on opposing linebackers & quarterbacks. The good Lord never saw fit to grant me with the talent, size, or speed

Then you go on to boast about your son having talent, size, speed, dunking basketballs, doing splits, etc.

Let your son enjoy his last year... let it be all about him. This should be one of the best years of his life. I can't tell you how many times I've seen a kid choose a college out of state to escape an overbearing parent.

I'm pretty sure what I posted was that my son is one hell of a big very good & dominant football player who could help any major college in the country. I'm pretty sure that's what I posted. I'm also pretty certain I posted that I'd love to see him have the opportunity to play at UL. But barring a serious injury I guaranteed that he has the talent to play at an FBS school & will most likely be getting offers from other FBS universities if UL decides they don't need a dominant offensive or defensive tackle. And I'm pretty sure I posted all of that in rebuttal to some people who posted on past threads that the reason UL wasn't offering him was because he quite simply isn't good enough to play major college football. I'm all about it being about him. That's the reason for the post. is because it is all about him. I'm not the one playing. But I am the one following.

As for as being overbearing or living vicariously through my son. Stow all the psychological stuff for a school case study or something. You know as much about my personal life as I do yours. And all parents live vicariously through their children in some form or other, unless they hate their own seed, & there isn't a thing wrong with that except in a society where doctors have become the biggest dope pushers in the history of the world & continue to invent schisms to treat people for, so they can sell another ten million bottles of pills to pay for another vacation home in Aspen. Any parent who doesn't live vicariously through their child while they are competing or performing is like any teenage boy who didn't yank it to the Farah Fawcett poster when I was growing up. Of course, I was probably the only pervert who did that also. Darn, am I the only one with such deep personal emotional issues? Or am I the only one honest enough to admit the truth about it?

Think twice, post once? I like to post 20 times and then... slowly start thinking about what I've written. I sometimes get into an argument with myself on here... after I realize how stupid my earlier post was. Then later I apologize and realize I was wrong and that I was actually right earlier. I've given myself "bad reps". Sometimes I sign them, but other times I do it anonymously because I don't want me to know I'm the one that did it. I haven't even given any thought to what I'm writing about right now. Can you tell?

Lol. I'm dizzy now.

Here's a suggestion. Lock this thread. Necksters have a similar situation but locked it down before it got personal. Not picking sides or saying right or wrong. It involves a player that might end up here and we don't want anything said or implied that could run contrary to NCAA rules. Just food for thought.

+1 Zoom, lock it down

[Bandwagon King]

Please do. Everyone now knows I definitely believe my boy is good enough to not only play for the university of Louisiana. He's good enough to play for the university of Alabama. And I'm proud of the way he's worked his butt off to be a top flight dominant player at his position. And I see him helping his team be better wherever he goes. Good luck to all & Go Cajuns!
