Indiana football just demonstrated that discipline trumps talent. Big implications for my LSU Fighting Tigers

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

A 2-star recruit leads the worst program ever to a national championship, beats his hometown team that wouldn’t let him walk on, and finishes it by running over the same guy who knocked him out… pic.twitter.com/WwlcVNs6TT

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.

I was doing some quick doom scrolling and hit a rabbit hole that I've been resisting for years...do we attack for business or democracy?

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.

Inspirational Thought Of The Day

NH-90 in the snow

CV90. The best tracked European IFV. Hands down, no freaking discussion!

Spare me the talk of the KF-41. That monstrosity is making its sales by parting out "home country" manufacturing. That's another reason why the S. Korean products are gaining traction. Everyone wants to build their own military gear in their own country. You arrange a contract where you get that and you win. That new Patria 6x6 that came out of nowhere and is damn near the European standard in that arena? Look at the contracts and where they're built.

Move onto the CV90. The Brits know its better than the dawg they're trying to piece together. Hell so is the KF41 so why did they go with the ASCOD? Because they were able to arrange the contract so that it would look home built.

Don't believe me? Their Defense Minister was quoted and stating that if they have a mailbox in the UK then they're a UK defense corporation!

The CV90 is the best on that continent. The only thing the CV90 can't defeat is the contracts that are being signed.

This LEO has balls the size of Texas. Direct Action against a armed robbery, car chase & hostage taker!

You have to stop what you’re doing and watch this video.

An armed robbery suspect takes a family hostage in the middle of a police chase and this officer doesn’t hesitate for a second.

An absolute hero.

Iran. Are we a go or not?

The carriers have arrived.

The Air Force has already sent planes to the region.

The Army is rushing air defense assets...including our EXTREMELY limited supply of THAAD missiles.

The Marines are nowhere to be found but that's what happens when you concentrate on one enemy in one region.

AND...SOCOM supposedly has its boys ready to go to conduct decapitation raids against scientist, political leadership PLUS even (according to rumors) getting ready to leave some Special Forces behind to lead opposition forces.

Long story short.

Everything is in place or will be very soon.

Do we go or not?

The political stage...Saudi Arabia wants no parts of a second strike. Turkey is offering to mediate. UAE and others in the region are SUPPOSEDLY sending their dismay at the thought of a second strike straight to Trump bypassing Rubio.

Of course Netanyahu pushed and is pushing hard for damn near unlimited strikes against Iran (again this is hearsay) saying that the snake that is Iran must be dealt with now before it becomes more than a regional threat. On this note he might have a point. I didn't post it but the Iranians supposedly with help from the Russians have test fired a ballistic missile with impressive range. At least far enough to reach Europe.

Lastly the bastard Senator Graham is once again pushing for a war while ignoring the needs of his voters. His fangs are out and he wants this thing.

The problem?

Trump kinda painted himself into a corner.

He told the protesters (that we were all alarmed at the slaughter inflicted upon them) said that "help is on the way".

So what do we do or rather what does Trump do.

He has to take the council of the Gulf States and Turkey. Not only are they alarmed by the thought of another strike but they're warning that the flood of refugees will make whats come before look like a dripping faucet.

Trump needs them to make the Accords work.

The globalist led by Graham and I'm betting the idiot Boris Johnson are jacking off to the thought of another conflict where they send their sons and daughters into danger.

So my thinking is that Trump, the man who lives by the art of the deal will seek a middle ground.

I think he will go after the nuclear and ballistic missile sites. The political class will be hit but it will not be the top of the list. Underlings will die but not the leadership. Oh and he'll probably slaughter any identified police units that he can to send a message.

It will be a hard but limited strike.

He will notify the Gulf States that he had to go but that in keeping with their desires he did not go all out.

The problem?

The Israelis.

They'll hit and hit hard anything they can. They will probably role out stuff they would like to keep secret to try and end once and for all the Iranian nuclear program. They will send operatives to try and take out the big dawgs and they will have a kill list that will make SOCOM weep with envy.

That's my guess.

What's yours?
