  1. How about, "stupidity?" When MTG and Matt fucking Gaetz are running things in your political party, you know shit is borked.
  2. I bet she is a dirty, dirty little bird.
  3. Wretched hive of scum and villainy. I never liked 6th much when I was in my 20's. Now I can't think of any place I'd rather not be more than there.
  4. I'm not panicking, but not liking what I've seen so far in '24. No one could have foreseen that Abreu would turn into a pumpkin. He's been absolutely terrible. Also could not have foreseen all of the injuries to SP. We need to plug the hole at 1B and get our guys back and we'll be fine.
  5. I mentioned the Killer Bees show.
  6. Easy. 150 million years ago to see some fucking dinosaurs.
  7. I took her home, yadda, yadda, yadda, I went back to Flamingo Cantina to finish the show.
  8. This is a true story. I had a friend (female) who had a roommate. The roommate was kind of awkward, had had bad luck with boys and my friend thought it would be a good idea to set us up on a blind date. I agreed. I went to pick her up. We went to Shady Grove. I ordered a drink and she hesitated and acted weird about getting an alcoholic drink. I think she thought I was going to try to get her drunk and date rape her or something. I eventually told her we could share my drink and she agreed. The next stop was the Flamingo Cantina where the Killer Bees were playing. On the drive there I broke out a spliff and asked her if she was okay with it and if she wanted to smoke it with me. She agreed and we smoked it together on the way there. We parked, went in the club, got a couple of beers and went up on the second floor to find a good vantage point before the show started. About ten minutes later, after not really finding a suitable spot, I asked her if she wanted to go back downstairs to get closer to the stage. She said, "I can't." I said, "What do you mean you can't?" She said, "I can't see." I said, "What do you mean I can't see?" She said, "I'm blind. I can't see anything." I wasn't sure if she really couldn't see or why, but what I did know is that we needed to get the fuck out of there and I needed to take her home as soon as possible. So I told her that I was going to sit her down in a chair and go pull my truck up to the door and come get her and take her home. As I was trying to carry/lift her up to put her in the chair, this dude standing nearby smiled broadly and said, "Ha! She's pretty fucked up, huh?" I replied, "Yeah, man. More than you know." I went and got the truck and came back and carefully walked her down the stairs, loaded her in the passenger seat and took her home. I told my friend not to do me any more favors. tl/dr: My blind date actually went blind during our date.
  9. Well, all of this is absolutely shocking to me. Shocking, I say.
  10. Sadly, this is probably accurate.
  11. Flyswatter. That shit stung and mom was quick and accurate.
  12. I love that gif. I like to recreate what was going on in their minds at the time. My guess is that the corps turd was protecting the sacred field. Then he got his ass kicked by a couple of male cheerleaders. Those cheerleaders were probably thinking, "What the fuck is this guy doing? Did he just pull a fucking sword? Are we really going to have to fight this dweeb? Well alrighty then." The cop: "herp, derp, herp, derp."
  13. Have you ever met a porn star? They are not known for brains and making good life choices.
  14. Looks like he just either got gut shot or the nut of a lifetime.
  15. I've thought the same. Possibly the blue bloods need a few creampuffs on the schedule.
  16. Here, here. About a year and a half ago someone I knew came to me with a bunch of the "drain on the economy" stuff. So I decided to research it. There are many scholarly articles that have looked into the net economic effect of illegal immigration. I tried to pull a cross-section to avoid the liberal university prof. egghead bias. I read about a dozen. They broke into three categories of conclusions: 1) negligible economic benefit, 2) no measurable effect, 3) negligible economic detriment. Based on these studies, it appears that the idea of an illegal immigrant coming here using up hospital services, free public school, food stamps and all the rest of it while contributing nothing is the same myth as the welfare queen. So, if it's not an economic reason, what would be the actual reason for being so against immigration? Hmmmm....???
  17. FSU no longer has the factor in place that kept them out - only four teams. At 12 they get in. So they don't have that reason for jumping ship anymore. The bigger reason, for them or any other school, is the $$$ disparity between the conferences. In this constantly evolving landscape, there are now two major conferences and two lesser conferences - based on the revenue from TV contracts, which tracks the relative media market value of the schools. The reality is that each school has a certain, fairly known, value to networks. Above a certain line and your athletic department has a chance to be profitable and you get an equal share to all the other big boys. The money disparity will eventually have a large effect on competitiveness. So, if you aren't in one of the two big conferences making the most money, eventually you won't be able to compete. The wild west of NIL isn't going to last much longer. Eventually the schools will be paying the players; the schools with the most money will be able to pay the players more and the disparity will grow even greater. I foresee the BIG and SEC becoming like the AFC and NFC, if you will. Their "merger" in whatever form it takes, will effectively create a new league, which could replace the NCAA for football if they wanted. They would hold all the cards. They could make their own rules. Call it The College Football Champions League (brought to you by AT&T). There are 32 teams in the two major conferences now. I could see 40-48 making the cut. The remaining will be relegated to the NCAA and compete at whatever highest level the NCAA offers.
  18. I'm talking about the extension and termination including the record buyout. Are you telling me Bjork had nothing at all to do with those? If so:
