  1. Past hour
  2. Behavior demonstrates intelligence. Just like the real world, where our degrees came from, doesn't make a fuck.
  3. It is only great if you stick to the run and convert on critical downs and redzone. Your comment is part of the calculus. If I am game planning for Texas the #1 goal is limit explosive plays, force Texas to execute 10 play drives (without a negative play), and convert in the redzone. I can tell you Sark would much prefer throwing explosives than grinding out 10-15 play drives at ~4 yards a clip.
  4. Anyone out there a league manager or responsible for setting up a weekly (daily, monthly, whatever) game? I have a side project that I could use some feedback on that should help you create teams in a balanced manner. Or if you use a tool for this already, what tool do you use (Excel counts)?
  5. The classic "it's your fault that I had to vote for a child rapist!" Been seeing this a lot now.
  6. Holy shit you’re pathetic. Like sadly stupidly pathetic. Even if you don’t like it on a personal level, transgenderism exists, in practice and in literature. What legitimate basis does a government have to say you can’t mention it at all? Why should a professor be forced to avoid discussions of real issues? What kind of bitchass little student would have such a visceral reaction to it even being mentioned? It’s all cloak room. Creationism is taught in public schools by the way, in religious and historical studies discussing various world beliefs, it just can’t be preached as truth to the exclusion of other beliefs. And evolution is taught as a theory based on scientific research, not religion. This issue is so sad and pathetic.
  7. Oh...it says that? Where. Show us the prohibition on a class examining YA literature -- contemporary versions of which can include different gender recognition and constructs -- that actually PROHIBITS recognizing that and reflecting it in a class on YA literature. Can you do that? Or is this just the broad say-so of "the legislature banned 'DEI,' and that means no talking about anything some reactionary legislator in Conroe says is 'woke?'" Because if that's the rationale....yeah, we're in full-on "thought-police," and anything the regime or its mouthpieces declares to be apostasy must be punished immediately and to maximum effect. God, this is all so dumb. And also, the video gotcha bullshit is toxic as hell. My son was just talking about this to me the other night, as we were discussing generational differences. He and his friends have observed that Gen Alpha and young Gen Z are TERRIFIED of being caught on video being "cringe," which is often going to be something taken wildly out of context etc. As in, they are even afraid of letting loose if they're dancing at a club, because some asshole will record you dancing with your arms flailing, post a tik-tok of "look at this retarded octopus dance!", it goes viral and gets 20 million views and for the rest of your days, because you were goofing off with your chick on a dance floor for 30 seconds, you're "retarded octopus guy." Or, you say something that in isolation sounds cringey, racist, cruel, what have you, and that 20 second clip of you goes viral and defines your identity and life forever. It's paralyzing. And yeah, he and his friends have observed on multiple occasions someone trying to surreptitiously record their conversation, activities, etc., maybe for the purpose of posting a tik tok or somesuch. Back in our day....this shit wasn't recorded. We had the security of being silly, even stupid, as we were young and growing up and learning behavior and boundaries. As for tolerating stupid ideas, yeah, that's a problem as well. Shutting down performative idiocy is a healthy thing. I remember in undergrad, there was a gal in my philosophy class (teacher was the dep't chair) who was super-crunchy liberal feminist. I mean, EVERYTHING came back to feminism. You couldn't order a cup of coffee without her lecturing you on the patriarchy of coffee plantations or some shit. So, during a lecture on Kant, she raises her hand and asked some long-ass narrative question about "wasn't Kant's theory on blah blah blah as it relates to blah blah blah really just a statement of feminist power?" Prof just looks at her... "No." Then continues his lecture. It was magnificent, and totally deflated her self-important balloon. Stupid ideas are stupid. Stop treating them as anything but stupid ideas. "You have to admit, chemtrails are worth discussing." No they aren't. They are a fever dream of imaginary bullshit spouted by abject morons who are terrible at logical reasoning. End of discussion. We aren't going to debate utter idiocy. We're going to say "No," and move on.
  8. that things got enough slope to make a bunny blush
  9. What is the BS childish response? The student's response to the content? The President asking if student wants the professor fired? The Student saying "yes" I want her fired? The school's reversal of its initial response and ultimately deciding to fire the professor, the dept head and the dean?
  10. Double legacy, flip from HCU. Must be a PWO. https://247sports.com/Player/hunter-mckinney-46142517/
  11. Needs more bacon.

  13. I mean, the statement that SCOTUS is short on legal analysis gives it away that your analysis is irrelevant.
  14. Still too many people (read: media shills for the NBA) claiming there's no smoking gun There doesn't need to be. This isn't a criminal investigation where you need to be beyond a reasonable doubt. It looks like a duck, it quacks like a duck, and if Adam Silver/75% of the owners thinks that it's a duck, that is the standard.
  15. Any chance Espada is playing 4d Chess? Could this be like the part in Rocky 3 where Clubber Lang(AL West) was getting exhausted from beating the shit out of Rocky (Houston Astros) We’re not getting killed, we’re getting mad???

  17. Oh, I’ve seen you say that, I’m just kind of lost on why you do. This is entertainment. I don’t feel serious at all. It feels seriously to you, but that’s just pride, fucking with you, Butch. I do find it amusing when you get so worked up that you start calling posters like myself and statsman “dumbfucks” when you know we have college degrees from Texas and you may or may not have paperwork that says something about Texas Tech on it.
  18. Ok, I’ll be better. Here goes- Texas Tech is a fantastic institution that has leveraged the resources given by the state into becoming a pre-eminent academic institution. Its football team is legendary for its championships and achievements, but even those accomplishments are surpassed by the class shown by the Red Raiders wherever they go. Is that what you’re looking for?
  19. Answer to the OP: Because you liberal boomers have sat back and let the West fall apart while you benefitted from a beautiful system and we are the ones that have to deal with trying to survive with inflation, immigration etc. It is not more difficult than this. Oh look, a neg, instead of discussion. How tolerant the people are!
  20. Wordle 1,544 2/6 ⬜🟨⬜🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  21. I thought we quit having to pretend the B12 administration was neutral toward Texas when the commissioner was recorded publicly cheering against us. For Tech, btw. I am sure our Tech visitor can provide plenty of other examples of other conference officials expressing a desire in favor of one of their member schools losing a game prior to officials in his employ officiating said game. B12 refs were and are bad, maybe not the worst. Their calls are marked by incompetence, unconscious bias, and deliberate favoritism, depending on the ones at issue. And often their calls are correct. Blind squirrels and nuts.
  22. LOL. 1. My change had nothing to do with the board. Ask Ima. 2. It's not about disagreement. It's about banging the same fucking drum every gotdam day in a particular thread. Quote me on the trolling, and I'll give the past 5 years to search. 3.. Nobody on here is starting shit, yet the same couple of dumbfucks every day do their trolling run.
  23. The CBA is very light on the requirements to make a violation. Penalties include voiding any player contract extending or renegotiation and suspension of one year. Kawhi might finally get his comeuppance.
  24. I don’t care if there’s zero construction and 8 lanes in each direction existing, it’ll still suck.
  25. I hope all you DFW people show up in full force tonight!!
