  1. If anyone caught the postgame Craig Way interview with Sark, he closed by saying, “I’m gonna put my son on my knee and watch those late games.” Anyone interested in over-analyzing that statement?
  2. I've only checked on the Sark/NFL thread a few times, but it sure seems like a bunch of football board critters are hypersensitive to the definition of the word "cuck." It makes me wonder how many of them are forced to watch their best friend rail their better half on the regular. And the fascination with bedroom activities being grounds to fire a guy for cause is also telling.
  3. “I’m not a secret nazi” is more or less the same as “I am not a witch” in the context of electoral politics. Mills could be 99 and still get the nod over Platner next June.
  4. Yep. Pretty soon protesting will get dangerous. Even for white folks. A bunch of us will need our presence scrubbed from here and other spots on the internet.
  5. It won't stick. The reason MAGATs haven't moved on is they haven't been forced to actually reckon with the idea that Trump is promintenly featured in the list. They still think it's going to confirm their warped view of the world that Dems and Dem-aligned folks are running a secret underground child smuggling operation. If/when they're left with nothing but vegetables on their plate, they'll throw a tantrum and get Fox to play the whiny titty baby hits. I'm a little curious as to the dog whistle they settle on. DEI and woke are about played out. I suppose they could try to refresh CRT, but I suspect their dialed-in marketing folks will have something shiny and built for distraction ready to go. I wonder if they're ready to abandon the facade and come right out with the 14 words as the mainstream rallying cry.
  6. From a pure politics standpoint it’s even a stupid stance. There are Dems in red states. They’re likely to get primaried if they fuck over their own, and they’re open to general losses if the national party no longer fights for the folks in red states, too.
  7. As a sometime subscriber to The Economist, I hear ya . . . a bit. It just seems like people that think like you were always a one in a tiny minority watching as the platform and rhetoric always seemed to barely account for your views. Would you say you were slow to see that the party was well on its way to completely abandoning your views beginning with with the Tea Party revolts in 2009?
  8. @Brisketexan, @TwiceHorn How the fuck were y'all Republicans in the before times? The easy way I reconcile it is you were seduced by the small government rhetoric we now know (but many of us suspected) was complete bullshit, but now I have to ask. On this page y'all are engaging in a back and forth that would've had you RINO'd out the door of your local GOP club, even if you brought the doughnuts. How were you sucked in by the party whose raison d'être is to protect and expand the wealth of the filthy and obscenely rich?
  9. Highway soliciting speaker sales.
  10. Moronic take. I’m not whining about shit. Sark doesn’t need to be fired, Arch is doing fine, IMO, given the putrid OL play. We don’t play in the big 12 anymore. Teams that go 6-6 in this league have athletes like Florida. If the defense looks like it has since week 1, there are no layups left, and 7+ will require some improvement from the offense and more than little good luck.
  11. “Do something!” Meanwhile all the people we need to see the coming storm are telling us to calm down.
  12. So the secret to our supposedly elite stockpile of EDGEs getting any pressure on the QB is getting a CB back? Is MM our DTs spirit animal, calming their nerves so they get in the way of a ball carrier every once in a while?
  13. Florida is now 92nd in total yards at 354 per. The put up 457 on us. We recorded 0 sacks and maybe a pressure or 2. I think we're anywhere from average to bottom 1/3rd of P4. While so many were fixated on Arch's struggles, the defense shitting the bed hit me hardest. 7 wins is no guarantee unless Saturday's defensive effort turns out to be some kind of motivational fluke.
  14. People still think we have a good defense?
  15. Yeah, doing something in this context would mean either preparing for an armed resistance or getting the donors in line to threaten pulling NIL money if Sark doesn't hit the portal hard for OL next cycle. I'm neither obscenely rich, nor do I have a military background. I can run a so-so 5k, so I might could be a bit useful to John Connor, but the man I am not. I hate to say it, but softlynow only pawn in game of life.
