2025 CFP National Championship - Ohio State vs. Notre Dame
Why do you “really, really detest Day?” He’s a really nice guy. What has he done that you detest? You can say that he was in over his head starting his first head coaching job at a place like OSU but that’s not a reason to “detest” him. Before his outburst against Lou Holtz after last year’s game in South Bend, what did he ever say that anyone could even criticize? It’s been kind of interesting watching fans of other teams develop their hatred of Ryan Day. They hate Ohio State so they have to hate the coach but Day was a total unknown to them when he got the job and didn’t give them any material to use to justify their hatred. So they mostly attacked his hair. You say you have a soft spot for OSU so what gives? Why the hate? It can’t be based on his personality unless you’re a bad judge of character. If it’s based on performance then I think “detest” is a really strong word. I could call for his firing because he can’t beat Michigan, win a Big Ten Championship, or a National Championship, goals 1, 2, and 3 (in that order) for a Buckeye coach. But I wouldn’t “detest” him. He’s a good and decent person. He’d just be in the wrong job

CFP 2024-2025 National Championship Final
Did he? I don’t follow Finebaum but I noticed titles on some YouTube videos when I was searching for Cotton Bowl highlights that suggest otherwise. I didn’t watch any of the videos because life is too short to waste time listening to Paul Finebaum. I think he’s an SEC homer whose opinions aren’t worth a dime. But just searching “ohio state texas” I saw these titles: “PAUL FINEBAUM believes there will be an easy win for Texas in the CFP Semifinals against Ohio” “‘Buckeyes are overrated!’ - Paul Finebaum BOLD predicts to Ohio State vs Texas in CFP Semifinal game” And this for tonight’s game: “‘Ohio State will self-destruct...’ - PAUL FINEBAUM predicts CFP Finals Ohio vs. Notre Dame” Doesn’t really matter. He’s a schmuck.

Joe Biden 2024 thread - Dark Brandon Where Art Thou?
I’m not sure about that. I don’t really care at this point. Fuck it. There’s so much fuckery coming, starting today. Who gives a shit? But I imagine all of these people know that they’ve done nothing wrong so they don’t need a pardon. Some probably also think, “Fuck it, okay, I’ll take it” because they know the fuckery is coming. But I’ll bet Milley at least doesn’t want it. I could be wrong but I’d like to think he’d rather call Trump’s bluff and dare Trump to come at him.

Wouldn’t they want to do it before the midterms? If the Democrats retake the Senate in ‘26 I would certainly hope they’d block any Trump nominee from even getting a hearing. Give him the full McConnell.

Is he going to swear an oath? He shouldn’t. It will be meaningless just like it was the last time. He won’t honor it. We all know that.

Welp, time to see what else is on.

If that had been Mahomes he would’ve drawn an unnecessary roughness penalty.

NFL Divisional Weekend
Why are you frantically motioning for someone to get off the field and not one coach has the presence of mind to call their FIRST timeout of the half? Mind bottling.

He was for the ban before he was against it.

Didn’t Finebaum predict a Texas win?

Consider the source. It’s semi-informed and lazy as always.

He’s not far off. He’s already said he trusts fast food because he thinks it’s unlikely to poison him.

Didn’t he promise during the campaign to reintroduce the Muslim ban? He might do that again. Or maybe he’ll issue an order to dismiss every trans member of the military (or all who are in federal employ).

On what subject should you be considered Surly's resident expert?
With a “k” sound, right? I guess one of mine would be how to pronounce “gif.”
