  1. Keep posting so you can die faster
  2. I wonder what the username count is up to now
  3. I think, if Israel does violate the ceasefire (and I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now, even though they don't really deserve it) it's more likely they use the inability to recover some number of hostages' remains to do so, rather than attacking outside peacekeeping forces. If they do what you're suggesting, and I'm not saying it's impossible, all hell will break loose.
  4. You're not really wrong, it's just more complicated than that. Just like people love to point out the "fact" that surrounding Arab nations won't accept Palestinian refugees because they're "too dangerous" or whatever, when the reality is that (Egypt as the most pertinent example) accepting a bunch of Palestinian refugees would be tantamount to giving tacit approval to ethnic cleansing. But anyway, I am not going to push it anymore, and I apologize for being confrontational. I am worried for family and I am just glad (as I'm sure you are) that seemingly real steps are being taken toward peace.
  5. No argument there. You're, again, generalizing your disdain for the PLO/Hamas/whatever in the direction of every Palestinian, in a way that suitably dehumanizes them and allows you to rationalize the destruction of their lives, that you would certainly object to if it was directed towards Jews/Israelis.
  6. I just want to leave this here and point out how incredibly racist this statement, and really the entire post is, including the part I quoted earlier. First describing Palestinians as inherently distasteful to anyone that spends time around them (similar to how the Nazis described Jewish populations), secondly describing all of the peacekeeping forces from the Arab/Muslim nations as "Islamist". I'm glad we have the board's staunchest supporters of the modern Jewish supremacist movement using this opportunity to let everyone know just how gross they think Muslims are. Fantastic.
  7. Lol There it is If only they weren't so stinky!

  9. And that was the last we saw of @ABSR
  10. This. This is new territory. I understand @Nice Guy Eddie's skepticism and I share it to a degree, especially since there seems to have been no consideration for what's happening in the West Bank, but still. Progress is progress.
  11. It's the Dughmush clan and some of their militias were supposedly collaborating with the IDF with regard to aid (GHF) similar to the Popular Forces. You're right that the fighting will likely get worse because there are a number of militia groups involved here, including a number that were Israeli-backed. The "next step" in this process needs to hit quickly. Yep hopefully this happens fast.
  12. It's honestly hard to believe but you love to see it. Also lol @ the chuckle fuck brigade demanding we call Palestinians animals again because they're killing a few collaborators. Fuck em.
  13. Are you gonna cry?
  14. No, don't run away. You wanted my attention and you now have it. You confidently asserted: That we are attempting to spin our NIL spending in some way That CC is running a commercial that is claiming that: Things in college football need to change to save it Money should be taken out of the game All of that is entirely made up. We haven't tried "spinning" our NIL spending in any way, we've owned it fully, and I find it absolutely hilarious to me that you claim to admire SMU for doing, quite literally, exactly what we are doing. Hell, I do too, but at least be honest. You want to praise them and shit on us. That's fine, just own it. The commercial says nothing of the sort, as far as I know he doesn't hold any position anywhere near that. He position is that pooling media rights nationally and keeping them out of the hands of private equity and out of the control of the conference commissioners will lead to an overall increase in revenue for everyone, to the tune of billions of dollars, which in turn will allow sports other than football to flourish across the board. He isn't saying a damn thing about college football needing to change or that money being in the sport the way it is now is a problem. You're just making that up whole cloth. And look, I'm not even saying I agree with him. I think he doesn't fully understand what he's talking about, I think his position is highly speculative/wishcasty, and I think his talking points when speaking to the media about this or even in his commercial are far too vague. I think the only reason anyone is taking him seriously on this is because he has Trump's ear. Like I said before, if you wanna talk shit then talk shit. I don't care, I love it.
  15. Yeah I'm not gonna lie, Lance Leipold is a whole bitch. He was crying like a little girl about the tortilla toss during the week leading up to the game and cried about it to the refs during the game. Of course, there is no video or photographic evidence to back up his claim, which means he's just dead set on becoming new aggy I guess.
  16. This is, quite literally, exactly what we have done. Other than the first sentence, this is just a complete fantasy you made up in your head. I have already posted about how I don't necessarily agree with Cody's position here, but this post makes you look like a fucking moron because you clearly don't have any idea what his actual position is or what he's advocating for. You're just making an assumption and then making it everyone else's problem that you're actually just too lazy to look it up for yourself. If you wanna talk shit, talk your shit. Don't couch it behind vague, passive aggressive, half baked criticisms and poorly understood talking points or whatever to try and make yourself look like some kind of objective pundit here. This is why I wasn't taking you seriously and it seems like I was right.
  17. Just watched the 2nd half, pretty proud of the team after facing their first bit of real adversity on the season. Lost the emotional leader of the defense and our team captain (Morton) early on. Coupled with Kansas finding a few holes in the defense in the 2nd quarter and seemingly having all the momentum going into halftime, it would have been easy for them to fold up like a chair and make a bunch of excuses. Instead, I thought they responded really well and just put a choke hold on them, physically dominated and left no doubt in the 2nd half. Not sure what was going on with Hammond early on, he seemed tentative and wasn't putting much zip on his passes as opposed to what he did @ Utah. But in the 2nd half it became obvious that we didn't really need to throw the ball much at all so we just stuck to a power run game which Hammond seems to thrive in and I love to see that. I was worried about that aspect of our offense coming into the season considering a bunch of new OL pieces and the fact that our starting RB got hurt before the season started. Cam Dickey and J'Koby Williams have really stepped up in his absence, though, and the OL is playing really well outside of a few penalties here and there. It's just Kansas, but that win felt good considering the circumstances. That team really plays for each other and it shows.
  18. This was Utah's first home Big 12 win since joining the conference.
  19. Forgot Sam Leavitt sat this game out. Though I'm not sure it would have made nearly enough difference for the Sun Devils.
  20. How is that person even alive
  21. Utah beating that ass
  22. Seems like everything worked out lol
  23. Kinda glad I have to get on the road and won't be able to watch the rest of this Tech game
  24. Behren Morton hurt again, water is wet etc. Dude is Mr. Glass. Bring on Will Hammond.
