  2. And there's this: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/seth-meyers-rudy-giuliani-belt-undone_n_65783081e4b0fca7ad220221
  3. What a complete fucking waste of a human being that shitbag is.
  4. Especially when you're racing against the clock.
  5. Please re-read what you wrote here. Paxton has a lengthy track record of criminality and cruelty and WE didn't "give him the chance" to do the right thing. "We." Give me a fucking break.
  6. I’m aware baseball contracts are guaranteed. Yes, in the event he passes away somebody will get the remaining payout. The Dodgers don’t get off the hook in that instance. I guess I don’t really see what’s in it for Ohtani to defer that much of the money. Fuck you, pay me. Eat the fucking luxury tax.
  7. Spurs were 5-for-41 on 3’s tonight. How is that even possible?
  8. Still trying to figure out how the 2nd down pass was ruled incomplete. Should’ve been a TD, right?
  9. Would suck if the dude dies before his big payouts start. The whole point of earning that kind of money is enjoying having that much money.

    Got reservations for the missus and I at 8:30 (I think) on 1/10. I'm hoping we'll be celebrating Texas winning the whole fucking thing.
  12. What a colossal piece of shit. Goddamn those pussy-ass Texas senators for not firing him into the sun during the impeachment trial. I look forward to the day the cartel(s) catch up to him. It better happen @YGIFS. You promised.
  13. That was my initial complaint when I started this thread back in 2019.
  14. All of this. Pop was fortunate that he got Duncan for sure. But he is also the reason Duncan stayed after the Spurs won the first title in '99. He drafted Parker and Ginobili. He also wanted Kawhi later. I also give Pop TONS of credit for instilling the attitude that helped build the winning culture in SA. We were mentally soft before he came back from Golden State and basically kicked them all in the ass.
  15. There is a positive to this though. My wife and I might get to use his lower-level Stars tickets for tonight's Red Wings game at AAC, you know since he's in involuntary lockup and all. BTW, he called and left a VM for his wife that we listened to this morning. He doesn't have shoes, his phone, keys or wallet. DPD busted in the front door and walked five strong, one behind the other, behind bulletproof shields down his hallway while calling his name early this AM. The gun was on the coffee table. He wasn't very happy how this all went down but don't go and buy guns in the middle of the night and threaten to shoot yourself or perhaps others when you're not making good decisions. Oh, and when trying to tell his wife where she could drop some of his things off he said a cart went by his room and he said I'm in "Room number jail, that's J-A-I-L, hospital jail." I laughed pretty hard at that. (Narrator: He's not allowed any personal items in hospital jail.")

    Kanye starting a news channel too, y'all! (I don't care that it's the US Sun, BTW.) https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/9829849/kanye-west-career-change-tv-station/
  17. Read somewhere else that said Wingo as an early enrollee was going to practice with the team during bowl workouts. Is that even possible if he hasn’t enrolled in school? The first day of spring semester is 1/16 or something.
  18. Y'all are gonna love this story. One of my wife's friends has been staying with us off-and-on over the past 3-4 months as she extricates herself from a bad marriage. (Her husband is a decent enough former aggy Corps guy albeit a little on the strange side but he's got permanent brain damage from alcohol abuse that only became apparent just before their wedding. He's since fallen off the wagon in a big way, has taken two trips to rehab in the last 13 months, neither successful, as well as a drunken wreck in the neighborhood where he miraculously avoided a DWI. He's recently lost his sweet job with Morgan Stanley and is completely off the rails. I doubt he sees his 50th birthday. I think he's 47 or 48 now. He's got brain encephalopathy, etc.) At any rate, he wants to cook dinner for our friend last night. He's had a string of good sober days in a row and planned to go to a sober living situation tomorrow. Our friend suspects he's been drinking by his texts but goes over there anyway. Immediately after arriving, she knows he's drunk, does a 180 and leaves. He gets pissed and starts blowing up her phone with calls and texts. At one point, he says he's going to Uber to a pawn shop to buy a gun and shoot himself in the head. Friend calls Dallas PD to do a wellness check after he sends a picture of some countertop with a Ruger pistol case on it. (Turns out he was at Academy.) Cops go by and he's not there. FF to late in the evening and he calls me while I was showering for bed and follows up with four texts. Says he can't get ahold of her and asks me if I can just drop her by for a few mins so they can discuss something involving insurance. It's midnight, mind you. Not a fucking chance I'm doing that and I tell her. She again calls DPD, who goes by again. They wind up kicking in the back door and determine that he's fired at least one round inside the house and then jammed the gun by loading the clip/magazine backward. They take the gun and our friend's husband for a 72-hour psych hold at Parkland. However, they say he's free to retrieve the gun when he gets out of there and is 'normal' again. Long story short -- inebriated/troubled guy drives to Academy and purchases a handgun, which he brings home and discharges in his home all within a few hours. No telling what he's capable of in his agitated state, especially now that he seems to be realizing there's really zero chance our friend decides to go back to being his wife.
  19. As @Pato del Muerto said, the Eagles will have a better conference record if both teams win out from here. Both teams have lost to the Niners and each other but the third loss for the Cowboys was against Arizona and the Eagles' third loss was against the Jets. I'm afraid the Cardinals' result is going to wind up haunting this team.
  20. He’s been terrific for a number of weeks. Season starts next week in Buffalo, though. Cowboys are nearly unbeatable at AT&T. Trouble is there’s a good chance they won’t host a playoff game again this year. I think we can beat Philly there though. Don’t feel nearly as good about winning at San Fran.
  21. That was a Big 12 worthy hold. You’re easier to draw offside than a KC wide receiver.
