  1. Cracker Barrel caved to investor pressure, first and foremost. Yeah, Trump whined about it on TV, but the reality is they wasted $700m on turning a good logo into a shitty, sterile one and it was their own fault. It's not like the government was going to or threatening to shut down Cracker Barrel for adopting a boring logo. Bud Light drew the ire of MAGA for the Dylan Mulvaney (sp?) thing but it was a one-off collaboration that wasn't meant to be continuous in the first place and they didn't actually do anything in response to MAGA whining (unless you count their later partnership with the UFC, I guess?), they just kind of weathered the storm. The boycott was real and it did cost them some money but there was no real action taken that could be considered "caving" from what I recall.
  2. Every time there's a patch I go back to playing zone defense for a series or two just to see if they fixed it, and nope, still doesn't work at all. Zone logic still completely broken. Almost every play there's a receiver running free with no one within 20 yards of him. Defenders in zone coverage will not break coverage to answer running QBs, etc, it's all shit. It even seems to affect D-line effectiveness. I can't prove it, but it seems like the pass rush is way more effective if you're in man rather than zone. It'd be really nice to be able to actually mix in zone plays if nothing more than to increase immersion but nope, they just can't seem to get it right.
  3. The tweet that got her fired and what Kimmel said are not even in the same planet. Stop being such a dumbshit bitch all the time. And also, the government didn't have shit to do with it. Have your brains leaked all the way out your ears at this point you fucking pussy?
  4. My favorite thing is how MSS posts in the middle of the night now so he doesn't have to interact in real time.
  5. You realize that these are both fake posts, right? How can someone possibly be this gullible?
  6. Boycotts don't work but I cut all my streaming services years ago
  7. Pancho posted a tweet from a COMMUNIST Who can I call to report this?
  8. It's so incredibly telling how silent certain liberal posters have become on this issue, because they know their pro-genocide posting would be very poorly received, unlike the immediate aftermath of Oct. 7th.
  9. This is hilarious, and is 100% a reaction to comments made by Steven Bonnell (also known as Destiny), who has, very ironically, been permanently banned from Twitch for years now. That is, it would be hilarious if it wasn't just another death knell for freedom of speech. Twitch-CEO-invite.pdf
  10. Not that he wasn't a freak but DailyMail is a dogshit source for anything at any time.
  11. I think it was around 900k which is not great but also significantly affected by the 2.5 hour lightning delay.
  12. The game was on Fox, it seems like you're just making this up.
  13. Most are like <username redacted> and only care when Russia is doing it.
  14. Fuck. Obviously meant TCU.
  15. Yeah I can't imagine why these people think that the situation with Israel/Hamas means we're giving up on Al Udeid. That would be completely insane. e: And also that this somehow means we're giving up on our relationship with Qatar. Deranged morons.
  16. It's almost certainly performative. Don't really care.
  17. @ztejas thoughts on Baylor game? My office pick 'em record is riding on your decision. Godspeed.
  18. Funny enough, I think it worked out pretty well for both schools in the long run. Both ended up with great coaches (Miller TBD, of course, but as the basketball board people know, I'm a fan of his and think he'll do really well at Texas).
  19. Yeah maybe but I think embracing conspiracy theories being spread by an antisemitic grifter is probably not a good line to cross.
  20. Hope your last post was a fun one.
  21. I can tolerate many things, but I have to draw the line somewhere. Duplicity and knavery seems like as good a place as any!
  22. Somehow I think you're lying about being sorry!
