  1. Past hour
  2. anybody know what sections UT fans are sitting in @ the baylor game @ Dickies arena Sunday? TIA
  3. You just triggered Denison.
  4. Not cats. Birds. Rev 19:21 And the rest were slain by the sword that came from the mouth of him who was sitting on the horse, and all the birds were gorged with their flesh.
  5. It's no wonder then, that the concept of charity in society began with the church and not government. Dear friends, do you think you’ll get anywhere in this if you learn all the right words but never do anything? Does merely talking about faith indicate that a person really has it? For instance, you come upon an old friend dressed in rags and half-starved and say, “Good morning, friend! Be clothed in Christ! Be filled with the Holy Spirit!” and walk off without providing so much as a coat or a cup of soup—where does that get you? Isn’t it obvious that God-talk without God-acts is outrageous nonsense?
  6. still holds true
  7. Now THAT I could agree with.
  8. Rubin is not playing well. Which is a problem for Tree.
  9. Dear god, please let that be real, and please let an army of giant cats come down to earth and
  10. I’d expand to top 20 teams blue bloods are like what 6 teams and at least 1 sucks ass from the last 15 years until kingdom come.
  11. I'm a Hilton guy too but was too lazy to actually call them and inquire about this, so thanks for that. (In Knoxville I prefer the Cumberland House or the Graduate). Got a VBRO booked just in case (but it is not as close to downtown as I prefer).
  12. Machismo > Anything Else.
  13. No, I believe that was Rough the Puff. Still a little odd.
  14. Three games against OKC in the next couple of weeks. Seems like the first chapter in what should be the best rivalry in the NBA for the next five years.
  15. I was fired. Expect to get served in the coming days.
  16. Magnified and quoted for truth. That's the dirty fucking secret of "the rule of law." In the end, it ultimately depends on enough people involved acting in good faith. There will always be a complete and total criminal class that actively works against the rule of law. Say, 3-5% of the population. When that number increases, hitting a critical mass that's probably a LOT lower than any of us would like to imagine (think something like 7-8%), and even lower if that percentage includes those in actual power.....then it's fucking over. Every system we have -- every single one -- depends on some modicum of good faith among a large majority of people. Shit, see the "failsafe" of impeachment and the Senate voting to convict. It presumed that the Senate -- our "higher, august body" -- would put themselves above craven politics and act in the interest of the Republic. Whoops. The rule of law is precisely as strong as the willingness of a marginally sized group of perhaps 3-4% of the population to actually follow it. That's it. That's what stands between a Rule of Law Republic and a lawless autocracy. And we're well past the tipping point. Sweet dreams!
  17. For sure and Michigan is probably consensus #4 now
  18. thread is a 10 out of 10, would read again
  19. I'll accept that, particularly for the JLC scene.
  20. Politics: off topic and I hate you Pocket knife and soda circle jerk: wow give me more pages of this plz
  21. Yes they can change fast, but I think some things are going to prove anomalous. It's not a perfect analogy, but TTU-in-the-WCWS-final-because-of-one-player, TCU-in-the-CFP-final anomalous. And, no one seems to want to admit it, but there's a decent amount of plain luck involved: coaching hires, recruiting, portal takes, etc.
  22. Where do you live that it is not politically correct? Like...I understand why people would find the game name offensive, but it's a pretty PC term overall.
  23. I feel for the kids who had to smear Bijan. Sheesh. Talk about unfair.
  24. For every obscure reference you can cite I can find thousands in pipular publications proving itherwise, but I'm not going to argue with someone who wants to be wrong because he's politically influenced.
