  1. Past hour
  2. There's more on the Mamdani transcript story. This 'violently racist' hacker claims to be the source of The New York Times' Mamdani scoop. Piece is too long to quote in full, but I found this notable: It's pretty clear that editors at the times knew the that both the hacker and his intermediary were nazis, yet assigned a politics story about a politician they don't like to a freelance health reporter, and even let him violate their own guidelines on the use of anonymous sources.
  3. Into the Wild. I probably would have enjoyed this more when it first came out nearly twenty years ago. Now, as an older person, I was bothered by all the dumbass decisions made by the main character.
  4. Hope this is true I can tell you my son had leadership sessions last week W-F from 9-5 and this week until school starts, he gets to be at school at 6:45 AM until 5:00 PM to prep for the season. One has to think that type of dedication has an impact when being considered for a school (whether you want to be in marching band or not)
  5. My now-senior wouldn't even talk to us about any type of major or any potential college until January or February. She was paralyzed with fear because she had no clue what she might want to do, and couldn't imagine herself in a college environment and so wouldn't allow herself to even think about it. We finally just took her on a couple of campus visits and that's when she could finally see herself on a campus as a college student, and it has opened her up to some possibilities. Tough part for me is, she's going to be auto-admit to UT but for various reasons she doesn't really want to go to there. So I find myself on this thread looking at other options.
  6. Those are fucking elite
  7. I may be a dolt but at least I’m not a tech fan. But ok brainiac, you tell us how much the women should make. Keep in mind the owners are losing money at 9% and would likely shutdown at 50%. At this point, they should go to law school or go bag groceries. Also, this is a voluntary sport right? No one is a prisoner. Like it, or if you want the big bucks, go to med school or play overseas. Pay Caitlin Clark whatever she wants. Everyone else is a ham sandwich
  8. Their playoffs take place as football starts on all levels. No one would notice the absence. It's not siding with billionaires to say something isn't owed (or earned).
  9. I'm going to pull out my Live at the El Mocambo DVD to watch later.
  10. Band is a cult. Same here but mines a junior to be and isn’t even interested in talking about college. He might just pull off getting into UT and make it moot but we’d like him to at least EXPLORE options.
  11. Former UT golfers have now won a total of 12 Major Championships. Can someone remind me how many Majors former aggy golfers have won?
  12. This was discussed on the SEC channel of SXM. They too were perplexed about that statement. Im sure his DC is fiiiiine with it.
  13. This is my thought process. I wasn't in band. My school, even though it was a big school, really didn't place much of an emphasis (or pay attention) to band. My son goes to a school with a probably better-funded band than the football program. They're routinely nationally ranked. So, to me, band has been a great experience for him. He has had to push himself and dedicate himself to a working with "the team". He's in leadership his senior year and I think since his grades are... uh... kind of like mine were, the band experience and effort should help him when trying to get into certain schools that look at the whole student, not just grades. Also, some schools that he is considering have great band programs - he wants to keep marching. For some schools, that matters and, to go back to your original point, it does provide that third space and community right as you plug into college.
  14. There is no bottom to the cruelty.
  15. Coaches like Brian Kelly/DeBoer might not be on hot seats in 2025 Listened recently to a discussion about how the huge buyouts for CFB Head Coaches are getting really difficult for Universities to pay now due to the large amounts of money being spent on NIL and updated facilities. Article with stats from October 2024... "The 30 biggest college football coaching buyouts in 2024" https://ftw.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2024/10/17/college-football-coach-biggest-buyouts-contracts-2024/75713358007/
  16. Steak n Shake is ass other than shakes.
  17. Has there been any updates on Baker & the rest of that tackle room? I feel good about Goosby and the depth of the interior. I think Campbell, Hutson, and Neto are going to maul people. If any of them go down I feel great about Kibble, Robertson, and Chatman. Baker seems to have a substantial lead in the Right Tackle competition. If him and Goosby have to miss a game or two, what’s the drop off like to Brooks & Cojoe?
  18. Profitability and revenue generation is not the players' responsibility. The average WNBA player makes less than the average WNBA employee, which is completely out of whack. Of course they want a larger share of league revenue, if you don't understand why, you're a complete fucking dolt. Given her salary history, the league commissioner likely makes 40x what Caitlin Clark is going to make. Does that seem fair to you?
  19. lance jackson
  20. I would not be so sure that they lose to Auburn. At SEC media days, Freeze talked about making the defense lighten up in spring practices so that Jackson Arnold could keep his confidence up. As an Auburn fan I would lose my shit. That is Florida State level implosion if true.
  21. That might be AI, since I’m not sure she’s said a word on camera all season. What’s the on-camera breakdown so far? I don’t know, spitballing: 35% Jimmy 20% Rachel 10% Weird backpacker David Cross chick (may actually be higher) 10% Crying Filipino Baseball “Star” 10% Keanu 5% Vince 5% Shower girl 5% Zae + everyone else
  22. Woulda been cooler if you had been holding Debbie Gibson that way then....or today.....
  23. Someone remind us to look up sister penny stock, micro cap companies with manageable floats when a super-hyped company like OPEN starts trending, AIRE up 220% today…
