Aka Peter Thiel's gay boot camp. This is a demo of how badly these tool bags really need Trump to win elections.

What scenario has us playing in the CCG and who would our opponent likely be? Seems like having to play that game is a liability at this point
-
A couple of things won’t happen: 1. One conference isn’t getting half the slots. The SEC isn’t going to get six in almost any scenario. At that point you’re leaving out either the second place Big Ten team, a two loss Notre Dame, or a Big XII runner up in favor of a sixth SEC team. 2. Two 11-1 SEC teams aren’t getting bumped for conference mates with worse overall records. MAYBE one if something happened like looking completely overmatched in a loss and another team played lights out in the CCG. The CCG winner will almost certainly get a boost and will be in. The loser, if it takes them to two losses and not 3, and especially if they play well in the CCG. And they will figure out some reason to bump one or maybe two of the remaining SEC teams. The final outcome will be tied heavily to who advances to the CCG and the winner will get credit (relatively) and the loser (relatively) not get heavily punished. Being a blue blood won’t play a role. The committee last year elevated SMU over a 9-3 Bama with better wins and a tougher slate. Pretty good data point that they aren’t thinking about ratings or prestige. SOS/SOR will be talked about but message boards overindex this stuff and tend to overstate perceived differences in the extreme. The committee might forgive an extra loss for a team if the difference in SOS is something like 25 or 30 spots. If it’s two SEC teams with SOS at like 10 and 15, they take the better record absent something like a really bad H2H loss. SOS/SOR aren’t scientific and a gap of 5-10 spots contains a lot of noise and subjectivity. The last thing is that while “good” OOC losses might not be punished, that doesn’t mean they will be credited as a good win or even a regular win. Two very different things. At best the loss is memory holed.

Government Shutdown 2025: This Time It’s Personal
Bojack replied to Bozo_Casanova's topic in Cloak Room
He never opposed the agenda of Dick Cheney, most especially the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. The only opposition to all that back then was on the left. Some day, he'll act as if he was always against the overreach of ICE, the annihilation of small "drug smuggling" boats without due process, the blatant weaponization of the DOJ, the invasions of Venezuela and Nigeria, etc... For now, of course, he won't offer any criticism of this administration whatsoever. He's a miserable drunk prick and a liar. -

I’ve flown 5 of the past 7 days. Usually I fly 2-3x a week. Yes it’s doing its job - the press scaring people into staying home. Thank you, press. I don’t say that often. -

After the Vanderbilt game, espn's AI predictor thing said we have a 55% chance.

My wife just called to rant about workplace stuff and told me something that made me proud. She said, "you know, im a woman, but I *hate* working with women". I almost teared up. I heard similar sentiment from other gals in the workplace. Women: 40% of the employees, 80% of the drama.

So we’re also making the playoffs?

Bold prediction: If we invade Nigeria and Venezuela, the government shutdown continues through Christmas, the economy tanks worse than 2008, ICE goes crazy with tear gas in 20 more cities, they tear down West Wing of the White House, and the Epstein files get released and show that Trump repeatedly fucked underage girls, I could see his approval rating dipping into the high 20s.

I listened to Craig Way on Saturday. Wasn’t so bad. Plan on doing it this Saturday too. Still haven’t seen any highlights from Vandy game. Can we bring back the Sunday night coaches show on channel 11 if this shit continues?

I'm seriously thinking of ditching YTTV. All I need it for is sports, really. Between Netflix and HBO Go or Max or whatever, I've got all the movies and standup I need. So, if I have to go to Pluckers every Sat to watch football now, I can redirect my cable payment to chicken wings. Fuck 'em.

They're really traditional about their margaritas too. Tequila, lime juice, sugar, orange liquor. Nothing else. Maria's in Santa Fe made some damn strong ones back when I was there.
