  1. ok fuck it

    the real problem with @TreatyOak 's post isn't that he's wrong, it's that he's not going far enough

    we shouldn't just opt out of the bowl game, we should opt out of the regular season altogether

    face it, we started this year ranked #1, and dropped out of that position after one game, never to regain it. OBVIOUSLY, the best situation is to just not play any games and retain that ranking up to the end of the season

    then, we won't get a first round bye, but we won't have any injuries and we'll be fresh and rested for the final game

    "wait Rimbo, this all sounds fucking amazing and realistic, but don't we have to win our way through the playoffs, too?"

    naw fuck that shit

    we're riding that preseason ranking all the way to the title game. And then we get a bye on that one, too

    I'm telling ya, we'll be the first team to win it all without playing a single fucking game. It'll be MARVELOUS

    Maybe don't read it?

    That is exactly what I think. Having the school represented by a large number of backup players that would normally never see playing time in a meaningless, somewhat embarrassing game against another school that will be playing scrubs actually damages the Texas brand.

    It's akin to Jerry Jones' horrific idea a few years ago when he proposed fielding a team of unknown players dress as the Cowboys to play exhibition games in the spring in Cowboys Stadium to generate income. Thank God that idea never took off. 

    Throw in the fact that key players like Arch could suffer a devastating injury in this turd of an exhibition game makes no sense.

    At least with PK gone, Sark won't have to babysit the defense, so we can finally see what he can do on offense. 😡

    I'm calling the Moldovan hotline.

    I'm not being a dick. Just honestly asking why?

    Lots of reasons. Probably the most common thing is, I'm in the middle of a thread and want to reply to it without quoting someone, it's the easiest way to get to the "Reply" button. This happens more often than you'd think. There's also nav controls at the top of the page...

    To each their own. I have no idea why i would ever need to go to the top of the page. And if i do, i can scroll. And at least the old one disappeared after a bit. This one just hangs out in the way.

    I use it all the time.

  6. I've learned two things since 2023.

    1. I'm too old to do 10k burpees in a year.

    2. I'm too old NOT to attempt to do burpees.

    I'm using running as my main exercise, but I need to do something else for that upper body strength.

    Absolutely no way in hell I can do 10k, but count me in for, say, 1k. What's more, I'm doing half burpees on em; I won't do the jump, but my core could use the work, too. I figure I'm good for 10 of those, twice a week, every week.

    JMU goes on a 99td drive to cover the spread. Exactly why I stay away from betting lol.

    I once wrote a program to do statistical analysis/predictions based on the expected outcome of football games. The standard deviations, by mid season, were plus/minus 15-20 points. 

    Betting on football is for suckers.
