If you ever wonder why so many athletes are among the least grounded people you will ever meet… it’s because of guidance like this at @OleMissFB.

NEW: Ole Miss coach Joe Judge tells pregnant partners of players during the season that the father has to play good football.

“He needs to be in another room, detached… he ain’t waking up for midnight feedings.”

This is always an easy way to criticize Louisiana but the states over all tax Burden is ranked somewhere between 35th and 40th in the country depending on the year. It can always be better but it surely could be a lot worse. #lalege #lagov

Louisiana has country’s highest combined sales tax rates, a new report says. The rate went up 0.55% last year after lawmakers overhauled the state tax system, made cuts to income, corporate taxes. https://t.co/Vaa5HpIUrl via @meg_friedmann #lalege #lagov

A 10-2 team opting out because they didn’t get their way. It’s a summery of entitlement that goes far beyond sports. If I don’t get my way I quit. No wonder they have not won a National Championship in 37 year!

Listening to @brianhaldane and @DIXONMCMAKIN about the failure of local and state wide propositions failing at the polls. Until candidates stop running on “ you can’t trust anyone who is elected “ we shouldn’t be surprised when they don’t. We tell them every election not tue.

🚨TSA has officially certified LA Wallet for nationwide use!

This is great news for Louisianans and will provide for a more flexible TSA experience!

Thank you to @Sec_Noem and @TSA for making this happen!

[Rick Ward @RickWardLA]

@MelindaDeslatte @AP It’s to fund athletic departments. It can’t be used for NIL!

You can hate Saban all you want but he set @LSUfootball up for success in a way that’s been sustained for over two decades!

[Baton Rouge Boot Krewe Media @BatonRougeBKM]

Absolutely nailed it. This is a good listen.

[Rick Ward @RickWardLA]

This was 3 years ago! It’s still complicated today! Hopefully 3 years from now it’s not!

[Rick Ward @RickWardLA]

@LSUfootball and #tigerstadium is still glowing from last Saturday night !

[Rick Ward @RickWardLA]

@StoolMintzy I blame @JayJaymorris3 and @stewartcatheyjr for not taking better care of you than this.

[Rick Ward @RickWardLA]

It’s so hard for elected officials to weather a one vote storm long enough to point to a body of work. It’s our fault not theirs. Our opinions are so easily swayed. Changing your region and state requires hard things to be done and it’s never accomplished over night!

@WesleySMuller Very true!

[Rick Ward @RickWardLA]

Real question! Do presidential debates actually change minds anymore ? I do believe at some point in history they did. Now I feel like they are only watched by decided voters who want to cheer on their candidate!

[Rick Ward @RickWardLA]

Coaching big time college players has to be hard today! The incentive for them to stand out as individuals has become more important than team success ? Why? Because attention, good or bad = money ! To be an elite coach requires managing that! Maybe more important than Xs and Os!
