Moral victory for the ags. Just as good as a win.
to be honest, Horn fans are the ones acting like a narrow A&M loss is a moral victory for us

Elephants are a difficult topic in Africa. Native Africans hate elephants. They trample and destroy their vital crops, take down fences at will and generally make life difficult for the millions of Africans that live in rural communities. It worked out pretty well when all the natives had were spears and arrows. A few elephants would die and the meat would be utilized. The others would be harassed and leave for more peaceful environments. Now, there are guns and poisons. It is much easier to kill an elephant now with either a bullet or a bottle of cyanide. The elephants are also plagued by the poachers. Unemployment is so high in all of the elephant occupying countries that the opportunity to make a few bucks for a small tusk, skin or horn makes poaching a viable occupation. That and "bush meat" makes it very hard on the indigenous wildlife. The native African does not have the concept of conservation in their background nor is it a part of the social structure. They only understand the concept of living day to day.
I have been to Africa many times. I have hunted in all of the elephant countries. It is very difficult to understand what is going on over there without experiencing it. The continent is being assaulted by all sides. First, the native Africans are ill equipped socially to operate as independent countries in the modern society. Those that rule, do not do so for the benefit of the people. Corruption and stealing of national resources is the common theme. Democracy is a foreign concept to them. The Chinese and Koreans are very skilled at taking advantage of these countries. I have been 250 miles from the nearest town and gone to a village where every mud hut has a solar battery charger and every adult has a cell phone. All given to them by either country for mining rights. There are fake Chevys, Toyotas, F150's, etc... They look just like the cars here in the US but are made illegally with the least expensive cast parts. There are fake Apple stores in most large cities. You can go in and they look just like Apple products but are Chinese knock offs.
It is very sad there and I see no upside for wildlife in the future. The only positive is that the continent is so large. About 5 years ago, I was hunting in Zimbabwe when we got word that an extremely large elephant had been killed. We went to look at it and it was 120 lbs per side. This was near Hwange National Park and no one had ever seen this elephant before. It had lived its 50+ year life without coming in contact with someone with a camera or rifle. There are millions of square miles that have very little hunting/poaching pressure at the present time.
so much bullshit.

every time I look, the percentage for option#1 keeps declining.
for the record, I went with #3. Not out of any great belief, but leaving room for the off chance that he figures it out sooner rather than later

Thanks for this response. I can't justify $700 for an F1.2 or even $400 for an F1.4.
I think I'm gonna get an F 1.8 lens and see what I can do shooting still objects at night with a tripod and slower shutter speed.
man those are cheap prices for f/1.2 or f/1.4 lenses

It's quite lukewarm. Problem is in trying for "balance" other shows have done the angles that Jack Ryan wants to play up much better. Hell Homeland is better (when it wants to be) on the CIA and understanding fundamentalism ("this is a serious drama") part. Action set-piece wise, Strike-Back was far more enjoyable..

I might be wrong, but it has always seemed to me that championships are won by coaches and players who absolutely abhor losing.
did you see the quotes by Colin Johnson and PJ Locke?
CJ: “Maryland’s a great team and came ready to play. Losing doesn’t make you a loser.”
PJ Locke: "We’ve got to move on. We can’t let Maryland beat us twice.”

I have zero confidence they won't ruin any of the freshmen.

I honestly don't understand what either he or Herman have accomplished here at Texas to display the arrogance they have

Win or lose we need to stop scheduling power five teams first game of the season. First game needs to be our weakest ooc opponent. In all honesty we might need to go back two free wins and one tough opponent. No more Cal, Maryland, UCLA, etc. Just my humble opinion
ridiculous. I like my truth immediate and raw

I've seen nothing to convince me that we will be anything but middling. Maybe that's progress. I don't know
