  1. It would probably have Piggy and LSU too. And the Kansas schools and ISU would be in some northern plains division with Nebraska, Mizzou, Colorado and whoever else is up that way.
  2. Exactly. When I think of Greg Sankey and whoever is in charge of the Big 10 at any given moment, I imagine the Forrest Gump school bus scene. And in the sports world, this mentality is so specific to American college football.
  3. This is honestly the first time I've ever heard of someone hating Tom Petty. Growing up he was always the guy that everyone liked no matter if they were a metalhead, country listening hick, wannabe rapper, or general rock/pop fan.
  4. I've never understood why our society has so much god damn trouble with "both things can be true" but it seems to be getting worse by the day.
  5. The conference model as we know it has become so god damn stupid. Blow up conferences, centralize leadership under a single commissioner, and do it on geographical basis just like this model is proposing. I realize that's no fun to the "you can't play in our treehouse" side of college sports, but this will return the game to what made it popular in the first place while also giving us the legitimate, proven champion we've wanted out of the playoff system. You play schools close by during the regular season, and if you win, you meet other powers in games that actually matter towards a universally recognized championship.
  6. Now this is how the thread is done. I'll never waste my time trying to get people who hate a band to like it. If it doesn't click for you, me going full Derka is only going to make you dig in harder. Long live The Dan.
  7. Perfect. So it will never happen.
  8. I love George, so I’m not really gonna argue. Your argument is definitely defensible. Especially considering he had the most important solo album of any Beatle and he was a fucking Wilbury.
  9. He’s my #2. Paul is one of the greatest bass players of all time, and a hell of a drummer/piano player/guitarist too.
  10. Paul was the best musician in the Beatles by a wide margin.

    You grew up in a James McMurtry song.
  12. They also haven't publicly thrown their wrongfully imprisoned former players under the bus, and don't condescendingly talk down to everyone they publicly encounter. We don't know that they've ever encouraged rape victims to stay quiet, or lesbians to stay in the closet either. Maybe not everything about Mulkey is verified, but if they were this way behind closed doors, I'd think it would leak more.
  13. They very well might be quite different behind closed doors, but I don't know that they are. We know that Mulkey sucks as a person.
  14. I don't disagree, but this is likely coming for any attractive female celebrity.
  15. Exactly. I don't think of Dawn Staley or Lisa Bluder as bitchy, at all.
  16. This is the exact point I bring up every time I've heard someone start getting dog whistley about Reece in the past year. Because those people all hate Mulkey too, it does seem to actually land.

    Schlitz has been revived in the Midwest recently, and it doesn't suck at all. Same thing happened to Grain Belt (which I'm assuming most of y'all haven't even heard of).
  18. I'm 38 now and just assumed Boynton was a good 10 years older than me.
  19. No shit? He always gave off kinda-old man vibes to me.
  20. Lutz seems like a very solid hire. He’s won pretty quickly as an HC and has recruiting ties in the Midwest and Texas, so he’s really well situated for OSU in a lot of ways.
  21. Stopped at one a couple weeks ago in Arkansas on a mountain biking trip. It took 20 minutes to get our order. It tasted fine, but if I'm going to wait 20 minutes for a burger, I better be bellied up at a bar with a beer in one hand and a game on the tube.
  22. Angel Reese seems like a bitch and a whiner. She deserves to take some crap for her antics. Her and Mulkey seem cut from an extremely similar cloth. The people who make her behavior a matter of race are far worse than she is. This is 100% a "both things can be true" situation. 6 more days until I don't have to watch Iowa fans use the women's program to hide their shame about how badly we've buried their men's program.
  23. I had some old GNR bootlegs with a really good cover of "Dead Flowers" on it. Speaking of GNR and the Stones, "I Used to Love Her" is just a complete "Dead Flowers" rip. I love it, but it's undeniable.
