  1. Past hour
  2. One of my sons got in some trouble as a teenager and had to do community service at a local animal shelter. He only had to do a few weeks of community service but kept going there long after he was required. I finally asked why he was still going to the animal shelter and he said it's the best place to meet girls. There was a well trained german shepherd at the shelter that wasn't up for adoption. He would show up and walked that dog until he ran across a girl then offer a tour of the place. All the benefits of having a great dog but without the responsibility of ownership. Plus he played up the volunteer aspect.
  3. I had high hopes for Moore and Johntay Cook. I think a lot of people did given their rankings, but instead I think it’s safe to say we would take McJaggy over either of them now
  4. that Alabama vs Oklahoma game had more drops than catches. they were both shitty but still.
  5. Except for Duvernay.
  6. Let’s not start throwing stones about $9.95ers hyping up guys that turn out to suck.
  7. What role does Michael Cain play in this one?
  8. When the histrorical average high temp for the week is lower than the forecasted low temp for the week you know there is a problem. Dallas average high temps for last week in Dec mid 50s. Average low temps for next week low to mid 60s. And we are a good 25-30 degrees above normal for our highs. Our planet is fucked until humans cease to exist. No other way around it.
  9. Well he didnt have his personal shit together and as a result we "almost" made the playoff this year. Based on his body of work I'm good with one of those, but if he has two years in a row of off the field bs that appears to negatively affect the team then I'm pretty sure he wont get a third strike. Could be wrong. Also, he would have to try pretty hard to create a mess that matches this last one. I actually feel bad for him in some ways, and I bet there's a good chance it was a needed wake up call for him. It looks to me like he's getting us back on track.
  10. Penn for the Oscar. His performance was awesome.
  11. We know that isn't true. Plenty of studies show that if you put two applicants with the same qualifications, one with a black sounding name and one with a white sounding name, the one with the black sounding will get rejected more often.
  12. I go to Nolan films for the sound and score. The actual movie is just a bonus.
  13. Corner Canyon HS in Draper, UT is a powerhouse program. Jaxson Dart and Zach Wilson both came out of there.
  14. it's also not UNfair. it just HAPPENS. over the years i've explained that to a number of young people in my life, when they've faced challenges and obstacles and wanted to claim victimhood... life is NOT out to 'get you' and it is not inherently unfair or unjust...it just IS. a lot of shit just happens and it's up to the individual to assess and respond accordingly - that's where the responsibility lies. life really doesn't give a shit one way or another. maybe i need to talk to these millennial white boys 🤔😄
  15. - I agree with Mitch that Shepard got exposed defensively last night. I still think he can improve, but right now it's a liability. He needs to continue to get stronger and more physical. - Jabari has reached his ceiling. He can make big shots, but totally overrated as a defender and he's just a little too stiff athletically. His contract is fine, having him out there is fine, but expectations should be tempered. - Since Houston is considered a real contender this year and with the addition of Durant, we're gonna get opponents best shot every night. Don't think they've adapted well to that yet. Last year we were able to sneak up on the league a little bit and took advantage of it in the W/L column. - The individual pieces are there, still looking for best lineups and defining roles to maximize potential. I think Ime will figure it out.
  16. No, I think by 2014 my analogy is better. I will say that the white guys had been coached all their lives, had families who loved the sport and helped them learn to play, and had given them great equipment and lots of tee times. The others had recently begun playing, didn’t have coaching, etc. The actual structure handicaps in favor of white guys and “skipping holes” had been eliminated by then. That is the difference between “inequality” and “inequity”.
  17. On a side note, I am astounded at the amount of people who still have AOL email addresses.
  18. If there's one thing I love it's torturing analogies. So here's my take. That analogy is really good if we stipulate that the white guys had received golf lessons since they were 6 thanks to their affluent upbringing while the rest of the entrants had not received any lessons and had only played enough golf to register an official handicap. So they thought they were entering a "fair" competition where they could pretend that everyone had an even shot and ignore their tremendous structural advantage. Now that the playing field is leveled they are aggrieved. There, that enough torture?
  19. Y'all need to get over the fact that almost all receivers are going to drop a few balls per season and the difference between the best and the worst isn't going to be that significant. For me that's way down the list in evaluating WRs behind things like ability to create separation, willingness and ability to block on the perimeter, and elusiveness and speed to go all the way when running after the catch.
