We're getting killed in this game, my friend. We line up to kick the ball, and a sniper in the press box takes out the kicker. The ref throws a flag, and the other team shouts him down while refusing to allow the yardage to be stepped off. We decide to play it safe for the rest of the half because we have a plan to win in the second half. We come out in the second half, and a massive pit has been dug in the middle of the field and filled with alligators. The most vocal and active part of the crowd is loving it while we look at each with WTF looks. In the first half we should have run the crazy impeachment play. Maybe it won't work. Probably it won't work to win the game, but we don't just keep standing around with our thumbs up our asses. Impeach. Who knows what will happen? It can't be worse. If America decides they want a pustule as president after an impeachment, then power to the sub-human people. Act now, not later. Nothing is going the way it should. Waiting won't go the way it should, either.10 points

Since we are on the topic of aggy law, a story that has been brewing in the background. As a preface, remember the aggy law school is trying to specialize in IP law. Which is what makes this so much more aggy than it otherwise would be. A few years ago, a writer from Birmingham, Alabama researched the aggy "12th Man" story, wrote a book, and submitted a draft to aggy athletics to review. The aggy athletics morons stole the contents of his book and used it, without the author's permission, as content for the school's website(s). They stole his IP, while simultaneously claiming to be experts in IP law. In researching his book, the author reached out to the heirs of E. King Gill (the aggy who came out of the stands in 1922, that no one cared about in the least at the time, and that the aggys later built their "12th Man" fairy tale around). The author was going to share royalties from the book with the Gill heirs. Of course, that got scuppered when the aggys stole the content, rendering it of little commercial value. Needless to say, the Gill heirs are not pleased with the "aggy nation." I will save their supposed comments for private discussions. So the author files suit. As they always do (cough*bonfire*cough), the aggys hide behind sovereign immunity. On initial review, the claims against the school get tossed because of sovereign immunity, but the case still lives because defendants in their individual capacities are name. But wait, there's more... The case is still alive and possibly will depend on a case soon to be argues before the U.S. Supreme Court. For those knowledgeable of legal bloviation, Knick v Township of Scott, 139 S.Ct. 2162 (2019), and Allen v Cooper, No. 18-877, 2019 WL 134012 (U.S. June 3, 2019). In short, Texas A&M, claiming an expertise of their law school in the field of IP, may be on the losing side of an action piercing state sovereign immunity, with the cause of action being the theft of IP. All over their beloved "12th Man" fairy tale.10 points

"Sources tell us that Roy's favorite position group coach of the three teams was aggy DT coach Elijah Robinson and if the choice was completely up to him, then Jimbo would have secured a top notch DT that no doubt would be the #1 DL in the state of Texas and a top 5 player on the Texags 44. We have also heard that the 7 OT win against LSU was a real eye opener for Roy that vaulted the aggy's into Roy's #1 choice. Pressure from family and friends was just to much for Roy to pass up on the hometown Tigers."7 points

Observations are based on last season and a bit of their spring game. I've been working on this in my spare time for a couple of months. The detailed unit breakdowns are not done yet but I wanted to drop this now since surly seems to be getting antsy with peak offseason in effect. ==================================== LSU has some excellent athletes but not much better than Texas overall. Starting with the 2019 recruiting class, LSU was ranked #5, #15, #7 and #2 nationally. The Horns will field the #3, #3, #25 and #7 classes so their talent will be comparable but younger. I have to give LSU the edge here because their upperclassmen are very highly rated and their DEVELOPED talent will be superior. But the SCHEMES are very different and the most relevant comparison of players probably isn’t LSU v Texas but LSU v UGa. From the 30,000 foot view those programs are very similar. LSU’s recruiting is excellent but clearly below Georgia’s (#1, #3, #6 and #6 classes as of the 2019 Sugar Bowl). Both run pretty conservative run-centric offenses with enormous offensive lines. Georgia has more athletic OL and a much better passer at QB; Burrow’s mobility can only partially offset that. The Bulldogs also had REALLY good RBs; LSU is good there but not in the same class. WRs are a wash. I’ll detail these areas in the breakdown of the offense. The bottom line here is that LSU’s offense is much less dangerous than that of UGa. The only area of advantage is the QB’s ability to make some off schedule plays with his feet. We have a fantastic defensive coordinator who majors in shutting down one-dimensional offensive schemes and LSU is a textbook example of that. Their offense is not something to be greatly feared. The defense is really LSU’s calling card. Their DC is outstanding and they can be VERY disruptive at times. While they may have less talent on paper than Georgia, I expect them to do a better job of stopping drives. LSU’s D creates a lot of sacks, TFLs and turnovers. It’s the last that concerns me the most because turnovers and field position can make their pedestrian offense look effective. For example the Tigers scored 36 points on Georgia but they needed a massive win in TO margin (+4) to do it. The defense is very dangerous to LSU’s opponents and somewhat dangerous to themselves as their risk taking also means they give up big plays. That risk-taking and high variance in possible results makes the range of potential outcomes much wider and the most likely result is less predictable than was the case against Georgia’s read and react style of D. If LSU goes +4 in TO margin and doesn’t give up multiple big plays they win going away like they did against UGa. For you stat geeks, I’d characterize LSU as a somewhat lower mean with a significantly higher standard deviation then UGa. If they don’t get big plays from their defense and ST, I expect a comfortable Texas win. If turnovers and the kicking game are fairly even, I expect a close win for the Longhorns. People will say that the Longhorns have not seen this level of talent and technically they’d be right outside of the Sugar Bowl. What those people ignore is that Texas has seen equal or better schemes on the defensive side of the ball from TCU and ISU. The Horns have seen FAR superior schemes on the offensive side of the ball – often executed with near the same level of athletes. But the reverse is far from true. Aranda himself is probably the only DC in the SEC who comes close to Todd Orlando’s level in terms of disguising coverages and blitz packages. And no one in the SEC combines a highly accurate passer with a power spread ground game. For me the bottom line is that LSU is not as good a team as Georgia but they have the potential to be more dangerous because they are more disruptive on defense. Texas dominated UGa because of +2 in turnovers but probably wins a close game in a zero margin scenario. The Horns have a better set up against LSU, especially adding in the home field. This game is Texas’ to win but they need to avoid multiple turnovers (or have the Horn’s defense match them) to make that potential a reality.6 points

The argument against aggy having a law school was geographic. (But of course, the ignorant rednecks insisted it was a conspiracy against them). Undergrads go away to college and expect, at age 22, to pick up and relocate to wherever. Grad students start to build lives. They often build relationships with those who are not expecting at any moment to pick up and relocate to some random community. Individuals finishing their post-graduate education are far less likely to relocate than individuals entering post-graduate education. Which is why the geographic location of publicly-funded post-graduate institutions is extremely important to supporting the needs of the state's economy. The reason A&M was not granted permission to have a law school in College Station was that there was no need for the public treasury to subsidize the education of attorneys wanting to live in College Station or Houston. The supply of attorneys in those locales was more than sufficient. When A&M had the opportunity to assume operation of a law school where the need for additional attorneys was pre-defined, there was absolutely no objection. aggy got their beloved law school. The problem with the supply of veterinarians in Texas is that there is an insufficient supply of large animal vets to support ranching in west Texas. Not enough of the aggys vets, having been trained in College Station, want to pick up and move to some random community in the wasteland of west Texas. So Texas Tech administrators step in and offer an impressive and cost-effective solution. aggy administrators, having ignored the problem for decades, offer a reactionary response and propose some expansion of the aggy vet program in Amarillo, essentially throwing taxpayer money at a problems aggys have long failed to even acknowledge. The problem with the vet school conundrum is that the A&M administrators lack the long term vision to identify and address the problems related to supplying enough veterinarians to support the state's ranching economy. All the aggy administrators care about is pumping out urban poodle doctors who will hopefully buy over-priced season tickets to aggy football games. Texas A&M administrators are intellectually incapable of addressing the needs of the state's ranching economy. The people of Texas don't need money thrown at problems that could be more effectively addressed by officials on the public payroll embracing the need for changes in how public subsidies are supporting the state's economy. We all have long known aggys are incapable of embracing chance and innovation. aggys are incapable of being forward-looking and serving the needs of the taxpayers who stand between the continued existence of Texas A&M and our collectively finally admitting the agricultural and maintenance Land Grant experiment has failed in Texas. The people of Texas need to support the Texas Tech vet school initiative. If, for no more succinct reason, because the people of Texas deserve better than Texas A&M.6 points

I dont get why anyone here wants to argue with disingenuous retards. It's cut and fucking dry. The president is a proven criminal who committed crimes to get elected and has repeatedly violated the Constitution for 2 1/2 years straight as president. There's nothing to even question. It's fact. What is also fact is the USA government refuses to adhere to the constitutional framework it is supposed to be bound by so what we have here is now the most well resourced banana republic on the planet. There's nothing to even argue about anymore. Some people will troll just to troll but even the most delusional of idiots knows deep down and just chooses to side with corruption.6 points

November '20 may as well be 10 years in the future. Rs and their Russian buddies are going to cheat like hell, just like in '16. Defeating him at the ballot box is no certainty. There is one constitutional action that the Ds can take right now, and they should do it. I think the future of the Republic is worth cancelling a 6-week recess. I'll believe the financial evidence when I see it. Maybe it materializes, and maybe it doesn't. Any president before Trump would have been removed for what's in the Mueller report. Not impeaching is normalizing that behavior.5 points

So your piddly judges are a fair trade for - -babies in cages -dead babies in cages -racist and facist chants at presidential rallies -bowing and apologizing on the national stage to murderous dictators -unprecedented executive branch overreach -complete lack of Presidential transparency with the disappearance of the press secretary and briefings -co-opting of the independence of the DOJ by the executive branch -complete disregard for the deficit/national debt (which used to be something Republicans pretended to care about) In other words, you’re totally fine with not only abandoning the principles you claimed to hold dear but are also fine with the erosion of decency and core American values just so you can get some judges that you assume agree with you? And here’s the kicker. If you’re so malleable that’ll you’ll abandon your supposed values just to get judges on your team, why does it even matter in the long run if they agree with you now? Your kind have no principles any longer so what these judges stand for actually doesn’t even matter. Because I bet 6 years ago every damn one of them were against executive overreach and and politicizing the DOJ and and bow and apologize foreign policy. Just like you were. But you all love it more than the second cousin you fuck at family reunions now. So get the actual fuck out with your pussy ass woo boo about your gotdamn judges, you collaborating donut fetching pissbag.5 points

so, many years ago, I bought a nice E34. It had been parked with a for sale sign near my office. It was super clean. So, I call the dude, and he meets me at the car. The car has a license plate frame that says "Newport Motorsports", which is a well-known and reputable shop. I ask "did you have this car serviced at Newport Motorsports?" He says "I own Newport Motorsports". OK, Sold. Several months later, I'm driving along and the engine just quits. Won't restart. I'm assuming it's the fuel pump, but I'm way too busy with a project to look at it myself. I call the dude at Newport Motorsports, tell him I suspect it's a fuel pump. He says "I have a BMW fuel-pump tester. I will be able to tell you if that's the problem almost immediately". So, I tow the car to his shop. When I get there, he starts removing the fuel pump access panel in the trunk, and tells a helper "get my BMW fuel pump tester". The helper rolls his eyes a bit and leaves, and returns with a rubber mallet. He tells the assistant to crank the car, and he starts whacking the shit out of the fuel pump with the mallet. The car starts. "Yep, you need a new fuel pump"4 points

My P.E. coach from when I was young just passed away at the start of this month and his obit would have had you saying "#teamfrance" before this tour even started. Napoleon would have taken Russia with a few more soldiers like Daniel Paul Mathurin Nevot. It's a pretty ridiculous read. Obituary for Daniel Paul Mathurin Nevot FORT WORTH - Daniel Paul Mathurin Nevot was born on April 26, 1920 at Les Bordes-Aumont, near Troyes in east central France. He was the fourth of eight children in a working class family. The family moved to Fontaine-les-Gres, near Nancy, when he was still a child. After contracting a life-threatening case of pneumonia and pleurisy when he was 16 years old, Nevot was sent to a sanitarium. He recovered, but the sanitarium then made him an unpaid orderly--a sort of indentured servant. He ran away to Nancy and found work as a dishwasher and then as a waiter and bartender. Nevot joined the French army as a volunteer on Oct. 25, 1938. His extraordinary World War II biography includes the Croix de Guerre with a bronze star, silver star, gold star and two bronze palms, the Medaille Militaire (1945), and the Legion d'Honneur (chevalier, 1999; officier, 2010). The Legion d'Honneur is the French equivalent of the Congressional Medal of Honor. It can be awarded only by vote of the French government. Nevot's service in WWII included a heroic action in northern Norway (May - June, 1940) with the French Foreign Legion in which he was the sole survivor among 30 other volunteers and a second harrowing escape from the Wehrmacht at Brest, France in June, 1940, after which he arrived in southern England aboard a British destroyer. At a famous meeting in 1940 at the Imperial Hotel in London, Nevot and other French military refugees volunteered to serve with the Free French under DeGaulle. Those who volunteered were then taken to the London YMCA formally to sign up. Nevot was the 184th signatory. When asked how he felt about continuing to fight, Nevot simply said, "I didn't surrender." He was next sent to Africa with the Free French, to the only French province in Africa that declared for DeGaulle instead of Vichy. After going up the Congo River and marching hundreds of miles through the jungle to Fr. Lamy (now N'Djamena, Chad), he fought at Koufra in southern Libya, the very first WWII battle won by the French in North Africa. In that battle, 250 French combatants and 150 native African irregulars in support traveled through 1,000 miles of desert on commandeered vehicles to capture a well-supplied Italian fort, its airfield, and 300 prisoners. Inside Koufra, Nevot personally heard Leclerc's Serment de Koufra. In that famous speech, Leclerc promised that the French would continue fighting until all Germans were expelled from French Africa and from all of France herself until the tricoleur was raised over the Cathedral in Strasbourg, in the northeastern corner of France. The full name of the North African military unit created and trained by Leclerc was called the Regiment du Marche du Tschad (March of Chad Regiment). It was possibly the most famous French regiment of WWII. Nevot was its last survivor from the Battle of Koufra. In the next winter's campaign, Nevot captured (with only two other soldiers) another Italian fort at El Gatroun, Libya. In the latter action, the three Frenchmen captured not only the fort itself but also its payroll, supplies and approximately 100 prisoners. In later recounting this to his biographers, Mr. Nevot added, "We also captured their wine." As more Frenchmen from Vichy joined DeGaulle, Leclerc created a larger N. African unit called "Force L." Force L guarded U.S. Gen. Patton's left (desert) flank during the latter portion of the North African campaign. After the Germans were finally expelled from North Africa in 1943, Nevot and the other Force L survivors were sent to England, where they were further trained by Leclerc and formed into the Second Armored Division. They landed at Normandy two months after D Day, on August 6, 1945. They fought several desperate actions in northern France. They lost seventeen percent of the division in their first battle. Nevot rode his motorcycle at the head of a column during the liberation of Paris, which DeGaulle accomplished by directly disobeying orders from senior Allied generals. After Paris, Nevot personally liberated, by himself, his home village of Fontaine-les-Gres in east central France. The Germans had just left. It was the first time his family had seen him in five years. Before his arrival, they did not know he was still alive. Nevot continued to fight with the Second Armored Division until the latter reached Strasbourg in the spring of 1945. He was personally present with Leclerc when the tricoleur was raised over the Cathedral in Strasbourg, in fulfillment of Leclerc's Serment de Koufra. He could never recount that event without emotion. After Strasbourg, Nevot and about 200 other elite French troops were sent on a reckless dash into the Bavarian Alps, to Hitler's "Eagle's Nest," in an audacious attempt to capture Hitler. They were the first Allied troops to arrive. However, the eyrie was abandoned when they arrived--Hitler had stayed in Berlin. After World War II, Nevot was sent to the Ecole Militaire at Antibes, France's reorganized military college for NCOs. In addition to his academic subjects, he learned judo, fencing and swimming, including the use of a so-called aqualung being perfected by one of his instructors, Jacques Cousteau. Nevot graduated second in his class at Antibes and spent most of his remaining years of army service at various postings in Africa. As the senior NCO (Adjutant-Chef) on every base, he was usually in charge of the men's physical fitness and morale, of keeping them in fighting condition, and of the security detail protecting the senior officer. During his African service, Nevot won, in 1951, the French combined armed forces world judo championship--a tournament with no weight classes requiring him to win 20 consecutive bouts. During his African service he also became an upper level "Master" (Maitre) of fencing. Nevot came to Texas in 1963 after 25 years in the French army and commenced his 24-year career at St. Mark's in 1964. His St. Mark's fencers had many successful results in regional and national tournaments, including the Junior Olympics (under 16 and under 20 age divisions). Three later became NCAA All-Americans. Nevot married his first love, Anne-Marie Morville, on May 1, 1946. She worked in the St. Mark's cafeteria for some years to supplement his coach's pay. Anne-Marie, whom he called "Mary Ann" after they moved to Texas, died in 2005. They loved dancing on the weekends and together won many competitions. They had two daughters, Rosefrance and Patricia, who both survive them, as well as numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. After Mary Ann's death, Nevot married Helen Bohn, one of his first Texas fencing students, on January 21, 2006. They celebrated their thirteenth anniversary and his 99th birthday in 2019. She also survives him, as does his older brother, Pierre, who fought in the French Resistance (Maquis). Nevot, the ultimate man of war and martial artist who trained others for war, died at peace, at home, in his sleep on July 1, 2019.

Orlando's D uses the defense's main (practically only) advantage to its maximum - the fact that they don't have to be set at the snap! OC's like to sit up high and read the defense. They radio down to the sideline, hand signals (or other bizarre placards) occur, the QB makes a check, and the play is run. Orlando likes to set his line up, then wait and have everybody run someplace else! The QB is left on his own to figure it out looking across the LOS at a bunch of facemasks. It's almost impossible to do on the fly! Now, imagine you're the Center, trying to set your protection or scheme. There's a large DT right in front of you (0-tech), or staggered just off your shoulder (1-tech). Outside of that, there's just a bunch of motion. Are those Safeties spun down to blitz? LB's? Is a DE at the 4i-tech? Why are 3 players over the same gap? Should we slide protect? Keep the RB in or swing? Bring the TE in tight? Ack! Everyone moved again! When everyone on the field, except the biggest and strongest, is capable of playing sideline to sideline, you can do this sort of stuff. It doesn't matter if they're playing against an OT. They just run around him, or occupy him so their buddy can flash by. It's the same concept as the spread offense, just on defense. The difference is, if the opponent gets it wrong, they get to hear "Texas Fight!" played. "Take the shortest route to the (ball). Arrive in ill humor." -Bobby Clarke (sort of)4 points
