  1. Past hour
  2. It would need to be a Jimbo type of stupid guaranteed money. Freeman makes 9 million a year or more at ND. He almost certainly has a longer leash and is dealing with a more pleasant group of boosters and alums. Look at BK, he chased that SEC money and Freeman has been to more CFPs and played for more championships. I think that in the NIL era, ND is one of the best jobs in the sport.
  3. I went to the Savannah Bananas game on Friday night in Houston. After the game, one of the players got on the microphone and talked about how the goal of the Bananas is for all ages and all types of people to come together and have fun. It's genuinely a wonderful idea, yet I looked around me and couldn't help but notice that likely 80%+ of the crowd (and 90%+ of the players) were almost assuredly MAGA and it made it hard to take the message seriously. I don't know how to put Pandora back in her box, but god damnit I hate feeling this way about everything.
  4. Of all people, the Mormon's don't deserve to be shot up at church. Sounds like another PTSD problem.
  5. I keep seeing this message spread around on this board in various spots, but I have yet to see any evidence that's what's happening. It's all very logical, but when a couple blue bloods come open, and are fucking desperate, lets see if they don't end up offering 15 million dollars a year to a commodity that isn't underwhelming to their fanbase. Particularly with about 3 sports agents holding every string for potential coaching candidates in their hands.
  6. Do you know how many foods are shaped like dicks? The best kind.
  7. I play offense and sim to next possession. I don't even punt or kick anymore either.
  8. So are we doing "Fire Flood" unironically now?
  9. Venmo assignments emailed out from the ESPN league site. Check your email and send your shit!
  10. Sun Belt Billy gets Dallas Wilson back from injury this week, so UF is pumped about that. They also expect 2 other WRs to play in Sturdivant and Mizell. Things don't look as positive on the defensive side of the ball.
  11. Democrats aint ever doin shit because GOP/Epstein has dirt on them as well. Its pretty simple, actually
  12. thanks event total europe had 7 of top 10 in strokes gained putting. europe had 4 of the top 5, US had 4 of the bottom 5. US had 6 of the top 10 in stroked gained approach(better than I expected but...) Sunday singles US had 6 of top 10 in strokes gained putting US had 7 of top 10 in Strokes gained approach they murdered us putting Friday foursomes and Saturday fourballs. the other 2 Friday/Sat sessions were about even putting.
  13. Yeah read this and then tell us who is going to stop him. Who is Cody Campbell, billionaire Texas Tech booster in commercials? Interesting side note, Tech recently published their plans to become an AAU university. Campbell is the Chairman of the TTU Board of Regents. Notably - the Big 10 only accepts AAU universities. My suspicion is that Campbell's end game is to get Tech into the Big 10 or SEC and get the NCAA swapped out for more of an NFL-style governance/media setup.
  14. Irish Wrist Watch / Drew pillow fight, and I agree with Drew. Some guy mistaking Diggs. Cool thread.
  15. This is going to be a vicious fight - and one that we need to have. Here in WA, like Texas, we do not have a state income tax, and even mentioning one is the third rail of state politics. It means that we have a terribly regressive tax system (one of the very few things I dislike about the state). This year the Lege tabled a bill to place a small tax on people with an annual income of over 1 million dollars, almost exactly the state's top 1% of earners threshold. Almost immediately constant radio ads popped up about the state not raising taxes, funded by the usual suspects who would have C-suite people affected by it (Microsoft, T-Mobile, Expedia, Amazon, Alaska Airlines, etc.). Nothing, of course, about the 99% that do not have 7-figure incomes and would not be affected. This fight is going on in a state that has a near-supermajority D legislature, the second-largest economy per capita in the country (after NY), and the fourth highest income required to be 1% (after CT, MA and CA). Even here the Dems are not messaging it well at all, and that speaks to the discussion here and in the NYT's op-ed above. This stuff needs to be hammered home.
  16. I’m a Red Sox fan. If it can’t be the Sox then I’m pulling hard for the Blue Jays to win it all. I finally quit on Longhorn football when they lined up tight formation on the goal line on fourth and goal and ran yet another QB sneak for no gain against Ohio State. I said fuck this bullshit, turned it off, and haven’t paid attention to it since. If Texas wins, great. If not, I don’t really care anymore. I had no idea we had a bye this past weekend. My life is better for it. I won’t root for an American to win anything for the foreseeable future. If you fly an American flag, I just think you are a fascist asshole. The anthem pretty much makes me sick to my stomach now. Fuck ‘em all.
  17. You seem oddly testy about this. Are you from Arkansas or something? You're overthinking this too. The deep south is South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. It's a name that people use to refer to a region, and that's the region. It doesn't have anything to do with trees or mountains. You could maybe argue that parts of Texas or Florida could be included, but you'd be arguing and not agreeing. Everyone agrees that those five states are in the deep south. I think schools are trending away from huge coach salaries and towards paying players more. Take the extra 5 million you would pay for splash hire and spend it on a QB. You can still get a great coach for $10 million.
  18. Well shit... he is throwing out around $50 of veggies right there. That's how a true MAGA eats!
  19. Your post assumes Stroh is actually the best option we have at LG and then devalues all our other options from there. I think it’s much more likely Flood’s overvaluing one player due to a specific trait, like Flood being a size queen, which isn’t that uncommon. There’s just no fucking way I can believe we don’t have a single OL on the team who’s capable of putting up a better performance than the Hodor on Skates show we’ve been watching the last couple weeks. If Stroh actually is our best option in Year 5 of Flood’s tenure, then Flood should be forcibly removed from the building and forced to be Fat Ketch’s plumber for the rest of his days.
  20. You're right, he's just from Nashville. That being said, his ties to Lea are pretty strong, they played HS ball together.
  21. Vogel has a pretty good view on UF statistically spoilered below. Highlights: -UF can't get to the QB. They're second to last in the nation in sacks this year. -DJ Lagway threw a fantastic deep ball last year. He's not doing much well this season. -It's not just that UF can't throw. They can't run the ball either.
  22. We should all strike until they bring back the Ding Dongs wrapped in aluminum foil. Those were kick ass.
  23. The WMT supplier money moved in long ago. The wealthy retirees and 2nd home crowd has been since covid. WMT suppliers aren't buying $3M houses in Bentonville.
  24. I like this part too. Good job, coppers.
