Well we can tell which Surly posters were "Young Conservatives" or Republicans at UT.
-- Those still defending their Teflon God: Ronnie Reagan.
For the record, I was "defending" a generic rotting corpse's governing ablities vs. our current fucktard. I gave a speech in a class (in the CMA, IIRC) on the virtues of The Communist Manifesto, though, I will admit, I tailored it from a centrist perspective. That semester I also wrote a paper on the probable unlikeliness of Jesus's divinity, though I was hesitant to go as far as @BrickHorn and others would have and argue along the lines of a Christ myth theory (that JHC was not a real person, but merely a symbol meant to lead one on a journey for truth). What's the point of me saying this? Get over yourself. You don't have a monopoly on fuckall, let alone how anyone should think about historical figures. Your posts of late have been the worst kind of purity testing pablum, neither insightful nor particularly interesting. Get a new schtick.

Well, they're both garbage presidents, so there's that.
Reagan in his current state would be 1,000,000x the president Dotard is.

Don't get me wrong, if you can separate their racism from the art (often difficult because of the racism in the art), Wayne and Ford made some iconic fucking Westerns.
But Jimmy Stewart and Randolph Scott both made better ones.

Yep. This is the most entertaining page of the last several.

He really doesn't look that bad. Y'all had my hopes up. Unfortunately, he looks and sounds good enough for another term or two.

Yep. He speaks moron, and does it well. Maddeningly well.

That's actually a comforting video to watch, w/r/t whether it was nerves or something more troubling. It seems Arch just needs to go back out there and be comfortable regardless of the jerseys the other guys are wearing.

I’ve only read the last two pages of this thread, and based on those I’m not clicking on the first 8. As retarded as some of y’all apparently are, I’m assuming Daniel Day Lewis, Meryl Streep, and Gary Oldman have been mentioned.

For the people who listed the cons of offensive play calling, I have to seriously ask what you mean. This was 99% execution. Receivers were schemed open on just about every play. The passing plays in the red zone offered high percentage options and had the pass that got broken up been thrown on time it's an easy TD and we're praising Sark here
I'm with you everywhere on the field except inside the opponent's five.

That was pretty much the point.
That’s a meh take. Even with the vanilla plan, guys were open, Arch just couldn’t make the throws. Arch fucked us more than Sark.

LOL what? I didn't love the play-calling but there comes a point when passers need to pass and receivers need to catch. Kudos to the running game and the defense. I don't care who the opponent is, 14 pts should at least get you to overtime.
Agreed. Not sure we’re disagreeing about anything.

Arch had a bad day. Sark had a worse day. We’ll go from here.
Reverse that. Arch had a miss rate we haven’t seen since Swoopes. That stat is the difference in the game. The only argument Sark had a worse day is if you think Arch should’ve been pulled at the half. Arch was ass. Sark manufactured more yards, first downs and 3rd down conversions than the opposition despite that. With a replacement level QB, Sark produces a win.

What is Arch doing when he raises his elbows when he goes on the field, and several times while he's out there? Is he just loosening up (more than anyone I've ever seen) or is it something he's wearing that feels like it is too tight? Maybe try putting him in a tank-top ("wifebeater" shirt) and see if that makes him more comfortable? I noticed him doing that last year too. Maybe it really is that simple - get him a different undershirt.
Glasses, undershirt, whatever it takes.

there was a stretch (i want to say it was on the scoring drive) where three straight plays were quick, one-read plays:
1)end around to wingo
2)TE screen to endreis
3)qb draw for arch
we played at tempo, the plays were quick hitting, and we weren’t asking arch to stand in the pocket all day trying to throw to his blanketed wrs when we can see that he’s struggling to throw the ball accurately. why we didn’t run offense like that earlier/more often i cannot explain, but it baffles me that people who watched that game think that arch let us down more than sark did.
This is a fine take. But it’s ok to be concerned about both of them. I can only think Sark expected Arch to settle in and find his accuracy and rhythm running what they planned. Clearly blew that call. There’s also the matter of Arch having his success when tOSU’s defense was clearly not fresh, and quite possibly against a shifted late game defensive plan from Patricia, so how much of the success was because of those factors.

It's year 3, but really just his 3rd start against a team that defines the word consistency as far being an elite college football program goes. I make no conclusions from this one. I can only hope that his even keel attitude that he has displayed so far is for real, because he is going to need to learn from this quickly, and then put it behind him. The coach is the bigger issue
It’s a data point that he isn’t up to it against great defenses.
You have to consider that we ran the ball well and the defense gave him plenty of chances. This wasn’t a young QB being asked to overcome multiple other team failures. This was a young-ish QB being the obvious weak link while guys around him were succeeding. Out rushed them, outgained them by 133 overall, 2 more converted 3rd downs, only -1 TOs, penalties weren’t out of control (though timely in the way they fucked us), 5 more first downs.
This wasn’t a mediocre performance by a QB, this was full on shitting the bed for 3+ quarters of the game.
I’m not saying hope is lost, but this was concerning.

If you're gonna lose do it early. I have zero issues with playing these games to start the season. Players want to play at schools that do it. While it totally sucks to lose, and Arch looked really rough, it will 100% benefit him and the team in the long run.
Agreed. If Arch looks like ass against Florida or OU, we’ll have 2 data points to know that we’ve got a problem.

We may have cursed Arch by not putting a “seems like he sucks” in the title of this thread.
Guess he won’t be winning the Heisman.
As far as optimism about improvement, he’s in year 3 here, so I’m not gonna be surprised if this is just who he is against great defenses. Maybe it’s first game rust. Maybe.

People keep thinking that bringing awareness to his despicable words will have an effect. These are things our right-leaning neighbors want to say, but are afraid to. This murder will only embolden them. They can dodge our remonstrances in the fashion of Incredulity and the hateful newcomers coming in hot with eye rolling takes about how hateful we are, blowing right past the words we are actually saying as they build up the courage to espouse bigotry.
Nothing fucking matters except power. The right is lost to the power of hate. The grifters running our government only gain more power through his death. There is nothing good about any of this because the flow of power is accelerating into the hands of people who will exterminate their opposition when they feel safe to do so.
