  1. Past hour
  2. 4 yards per carry is great if the plan is to run three downs in a row and not commit procedure or holding penalties.
  3. Overall I’m not concerned with sec crews except for the Gomer Pyle crew. Big 12 has 3-4 really bad crews
  4. And it speaks to a deeper trend - we see really stupid fucking ideas being accommodated. We have a President who, when caught lying, immediately shouts out "FAKE NEWS FAKE NEWS" and the media doesn't push back. We see dumbasses in our government talking about chemtrails as if they were real or saying maybe we shouldn't be too harsh on the flat earthers or moon landing deniers, and they aren't being mocked for that, or worse, that 9/11 was a false-flag operation (look at how Laura Loomer was around Trump and how much influence she wields). The most popular podcaster adopts whatever beliefs the person sitting in front of him has, so tens of millions of people who think he is an authority figure are nodding along say "well maybe we didn't land on the moon!" 40 years ago, these people used to have an audience that consisted of themselves, hanging out in the back of a bookstore, and occasionally a kid in junior high who was bored at the mall and hanging out in B.Dalton and looking at all of the spiffy covers and blurbs on their books. We used to shove these people's heads in the toilet and flush it or give them wedgies. Here in 2025, these people are pushing the dumbest fucking conspiracy theories on platforms that spread their bullshit around to millions, unchecked, within seconds, and they are spreading it to people who are vulnerable to this bullshit - our parents/aunts/uncles who, for whatever reason, have lost whatever critical thinking skills they had when it comes to the internet. And when they hit the mainstream (MTG, etc.), they don't get pushback from the media because the media is afraid of them. We should not have state legislatures "banning chemtrails" and they should be routinely mocked, but they aren't outside of the Jon Stewarts.
  5. It makes complete sense that a Texas Tech fan would feel that way.
  6. Newlywed Oliver North was heroized on the covers of Time and Newsweek. Many people taped the pictures to the rear windows of their cars. Having observed the Watergate hearings and protests against government abuse of power fewer than ten years prior, I expected angry mobs in response to North's notion of a neat idea called Iran-Contra and announcing that he and the CIA head wanted to establish a fully-funded, off-the-shelf covert operations team that reported only to the president and unknown to all others. Nope, Reagan's glow and the rise of conservatism based on hating libs saved his ass. He and all the high-up criminals got away with it, mostly by HW Bush's pardons on Christmas Eve before he left office. Prosecutor Walsh was getting ready to start the trials.
  7. If the end result was firing, why did it not happen back in July before the videos and audio were released? The Dean and Professor only were fired this week after the release?
  8. Do you believe the government is engaged in a conspiracy to withhold information from the public about aliens and/or how we are outclassed technologically by some unknown entity?
  9. I'll be there again on Saturday. By the way @immamac, the very nice lady who scanned the QR codes for my tailgate pass said there was no record of my purchase, even after using my name to look it up. I overheard others having the same problem. Just giving you some feedback.
  10. Is my sarcasm meter broken or did you really just type this with a straight face?
  11. Yep lol #23 clearly picks the ball up behind the pile and walks off while other OU players point at him trying to get the refs attention. So bizarre. They did mention OU having the ball once but I don't think they ever pointed it out again after that.
  12. I kept looking at it and yeah, and was waiting on the idiot announcers to mention that. They didn't. I kind of remember that.
  13. Not gonna lie, from the outside, this is the weirdest UT fan obsession.
  14. The Gaza family torn apart by IDF snipers from Chicago and Munich | Israel-Gaza war | The Guardian Cross posting from the CR thread. This dude should be in prison or in front of a firing squad, but this is just how these IDF pieces of shit operate. What kind of a monster do you have to be to grow up in America and then decide you want to go join the IDF so you can shoot unarmed Palestinians for fun?
  15. 250 pairs sold? Angel - 100 pairs Angels boyfriend -3 4 unnamed surly posters - 100 hoe big is Angel’s family?
  16. Something did happen; the Head of English, the Dean, and the person in charge of faculty affairs had a sit down with the instructor when the issue first arose. IIRC, this specific student as well as others in the short course were offered opportunities to receive credit and it should've ended there. The DH was already working with faculty in that department to ensure that course descriptions, curricula, and course content were more in alignment for fall semester but this type of process has to work its way through protocols and scheduling (fall schedules are determined and set by early spring usually). So, yeah, this news was going to go this way regardless because the end result was what they wanted--exposure and a firing and it will continue as it gives more impetus for the governor to implement the overarching plan to remold universities. The whole thing was arranged and done stupidly by all, but it's A&M so my expectations were met.
  17. The Shrouds, a new-ish Cronenberg available on Criterion. One of my favorites of 2025.
  18. How the hell did we ever watch standard definition football? Jesus.
  19. Yeah it was a raw deal for the sooners but it didn't even come close to making up for decades of uncalled holding so fuck 'em.
  20. Has it? I use it 4-6x each week (and have for over 20 years now). What are you complaining about now?
  21. This is a simple truth. The Epstein shit is the stuff of MAGA/QAnon's wet dreams, and Donald Trump's emergence as Epstein's close friend, cheerleader, and most likely accomplice and client, is like a bucket of cold water on that wet dream.
