  1. My dad got too drunk so my (lib) brother had to drive them home.  Bro opened up the car door and found a MAGA hat sitting in the door compartment.  Even worse, it was a dorky Elon black one.

    Thanksgiving is a rough day to learn that your father has been going out in public with a black MAGA hat.

    This one is more or less the MTG demographic. TN-7 is intended to dilute the influence of some of the Nashville suburbs/exurbs in the same way GA-14 is intended to dilute some of the Atlanta suburbs/exurbs. Not surprised that the R is a batshit nutjob, that's by design and the way MAGAts usually win these districts. What do we know about Behn?

    Man these last few commits and guys we are after seem like JAGs and our plan B and C options.  This staff has shown the ability to find late risers and have hit on their fair share of 3 stars and players that were offered and evaluated late so I guess they get the benefit of doubt.  But yeah, taking guys from Standford, Cal, Minnesota doesn't seem like a recipe for success when we want to beat UGA and tOSU.

    I think we are going to need to see the entire cycle play out before being able to draw conclusions.  If there is a concerted effort to focus more on transfers to fill holes, then I could get behind that strategy as I think that’s the way of the future.  But if this is indicative of the type of players we are now chasing in general, then I think the alarm bells are valid.

    Bama last year says you're wrong. The bad loss to OU absolutely kept them out of the playoffs. 

    An 11-1 Bama makes the playoffs last year, even with the OU loss.  Much like us this year, their OOC loss eliminated any margin for error and turned a bad loss into a season ender.

    Everyone is wringing their hands over playing/losing to the OSU. This ^^^ is the loss that is really the problem. They are a bad football team, + in conference.

    I mean you aren’t wrong, but a team with one loss to Florida makes the playoffs.  A team with two losses, including Florida, makes the playoffs.

    A bad loss doesn’t keep you out of the playoffs.  A bad loss when you’ve lost a tough OOC game and eliminated the margin for error might.

    The committee might be about to give every team clear direction to stop the fun OOC games.

  6. The bottom line: if we had scheduled, like, Wyoming for the first game - we would be 9-2 heading into the aggy game and an absolute lock to get in with a win - Florida loss and all.

    I get that there are a lot of moving parts, but if we miss the playoffs then the lesson we will unquestionably learn is that we shouldn’t schedule tough OOC games.  I’m not convinced that’s a lesson the committee wants to teach.

  7. Genuinely the weakest, most easily influenceable man in human history.  Do you know how easy it should be for an 80 year old Republican to stay mad at a brown millennial socialist, and this motherfucker can't even do that.

    For all the speculation about a potential Oval Office dust-up during Mamdani's visit, Trump was cordial so far in the Oval Office.

    "We're going to be helping him," Trump said, adding that "we agree on a lot more than I would have thought."

    That's a notably different message than the one Trump gave during the New York City mayoral campaign, when he repeatedly threatened to withhold federal funding to the city if Mamdani were to win.

    "I think you're going to have, hopefully, a really great mayor," he said. "The better he does, the happier I am."

    Directly asked about his previous comments that Mamdani is a "communist", Trump said simply that he would "change".

    "Some of my views have changed," he added. "I feel very confident that he can do a very good job."

    Trump repeatedly expressed support for Mamdani during tough questions from reporters, tapping him on the arm and telling him it's "okay" to say he is a despot.

    "I've been called much worst than a despot," he added. "So it's not that insulting."

    Trump seems to be going to great lengths to avoid any spat at the White House - as does Mamdani.

    Looking to the future, Trump said that the two might have disagreements, but that ultimately they would be able to convince each other.

    "I hope we do [meet again]," Trump said towards the end. "We had a great meeting."

    Amazing how when a HC selflessly gives up play-calling duties the offense starts rolling. 

    Honestly not sure which part of this sentence to question first: the insinuation that Demeco Ryans was calling our offense or the fact that they “rolled” last night.

  9. Hey so, like, the President just said Democratic congress members should be killed.

    Not an exaggeration, literally his quote.

    Even for Trump, this seems like new territory.
