  1. How many strokes does a Turtle have before it gets to the center of a Tootsie pop?
  2. An okie state alum friend of mine swore that Gundy hated Holgo and resented him being thrust on him as an OC. He also claimed that none of Gundy's mandatory meetings and time schedules applied to Holgo. He could come and go as he pleased and was frequently hungover on the rare occasion he made a pre-noon practice. Finally, he said he never had a home while in Stillwater. He rented a room at the Atherton to sleep in, but essentially lived at Eskimo Joe's and the dive bars near campus.
  3. This Minnesota running game is underwhelming. Putting a lot of pressure on the QB. Pushed the 54 yard fg try.
  4. Full house while Duran Duran is playing at the state fair? Who woulda thunk it?
  5. 3-0 Gophers. The beers are flowing in Dinkytown.
  6. Whooof. Not a lot of talent in Minny on that crowd shot after the break. Where are all the Scandinavian girls?
  7. I'm obviously not paying them enough each month for my phones, internet, cable....[emoji2959]
  8. If "the Bear" is going to be limited to a 45 second pre-recorded betting slot on Fox pre-game I think I can live with it. Easy to ignore.
  9. Nothing says "tradition" like copying the uniform of the beloved NFL team that left over a quarter century ago. Cougar High is desperate to be noticed. And there's no way they would have pulled this while Bud Adams was still alive.
  10. Because as a fan I really give a shit about how much the billionaire asshole owner makes on gameday at my expense, and my overall experience is heightened knowing that ownership squeezed every fucking dime out of the patrons. But for the record, the ranking was done by 31 sportswriters--and not all of them had visited all of the stadiums on the list--and is worth the read. The Athletic NFL stadiums ranked by sportswriters
  11. Wasn't it shown that Melania's hairdresser/stylist was being paid as a "strategy consultant" or similar BS title in another filing? The fucking beverage cart girl at Bedminster is going to show up as "diplomatic liaison" in some accounting report down the road.
  12. My bad. I was caught up scrolling past the latest twicehorn rant on this page and missed the earlier post.
  13. Trump's gonna need a new grift. Save America PAC is on fumes. That'sashame.gif
  14. Ed Clements with an intelligent take...is that the first or second seal of the apocalypse being opened?
  15. He devoted at least 15 pages to explaining how Doral has not just one but four golf courses, and he could--if he wanted, which he did but then didn't--tear down everything and rebuild it even better than it is and make even more money because the value is in the acreage, not in people hitting beautiful golf shots down the middle of the fairway. You probably didn't know that, but he did. The value is in the acres, many acres--hundreds--in the best area. Worth billions. That exchange was almost as annoying and useless as him trying to explain that Turnberry was one of the 7 courses in the rotation for the British Open tournament. The biggest in the world. They call it the Open. Jack Nicklaus. Tom Watson. The Duel in the Sun. I almost wish the prosecution would have asked what the effect has been on the value since the R&A refuses to hold the Open championship there since he rebranded the course Trump Turnberry. It would have been worth it to read him lose his shit about that snub.
  16. Holy shit this transcript. Yeah, 479 pages long and only 15 minutes in he's totally off the rails about the deals he could have done as POTUS but didn't (although" Biden's doing them now, and George Washington did them" hundreds of years ago), how he owns the "Mona Lisas" of real estate and his properties are worth billions. But here's the money shot (pun intended, I guess).
  17. Yep, the female aide tries to play it off as if ol' Mitch is just a little hard of hearing and can't hear the questions. It's not that his brain is totally short circuiting and he's unable to process where the fuck he's at let alone answer a basic question, no it's the responsibility of the audience to speak louder so Mitch can hear them.
  18. In fairness, Holgo's blood chemistry is a delicate balance of Monster energy drink and Jim Beam so you can't expect him to have a great understanding of facts or details. This is part of Yakmilk's directive: have coaches and AD of the remaining BXII schools take pot shots at Texas (but not ou) this final season as a sign of conference unity. It's the same level of leadership you'd expect from someone who was promoted to VP in charge of selling optical drives to PC manufacturers circa 2012. They finally made it to the big corner office, they were just too stupid to see that their product was irrelevant.
  19. We typically hear that the biggest challenge for frosh RBs is blitz pickup and reading blocks properly. Is Baxter ahead of the game in these areas, or is it simply a matter of his physical talents being at a level where the nuances of the position don't matter at this point?
