    Let's break this down.

    Quote

    Put another way, Warren has not really seen any improvement with non-potential Democratic primary voters over the summer, even as she has dramatically improved with Democrats.

    Who is a non-potential Democratic primary voter? Most of them are Republicans or R leaners. She was never ever going to get their vote. If a poll sifts through the "independents" by asking one's lean, as Q-pac seems to do, a very few number of true independents remain. 

    Here's a clue: the Q-pac poll has her 6 points above water among "indies" in general. Throwing out the leaners, she is probably above water among the true indies as well.

    There's also this.

    Biden maintains a clear edge in net favorability (favorable - unfavorable) rating of -48 points versus -59 points for Warren among non-potential Democratic primary voters.

    Republicans aren't going to vote for Biden either. Cool.

    Jesus, some pussies up in here.

    I appreciate him being candid and tough. I also think this builds his type of football.

    Augie Garrido did far worse when he spoke to our baseball players and the guy was a fucking champion...a lot.

    I'm guessing he was candid and tough to his team after UCLA dropped 50 on him in a single half. Lots of good that did.

    When your team gets tripled up, chances are high that there was a coaching mismatch in addition to personnel mismatches or issues in motivation.

  3. 1) Oregon

    2) Washington - One could easily argue for #1.

    3) Utah - Move back into position as #1 in the south, this time with an offense to show for it

    4) Colorado

    5) USC - They need to heal up before they take on the Domers

    6) ASU - Solid road win. They are a good, talented team on the upswing

    7) Cal - They will (only) go as far as their depth takes them

    8 ) WSU - Two losses in a row. Maybe Leach is right...

    9) Stanford - Unimpressive last-minute win at home 

    10) Arizona - See #9

    11) UCLA - A bad team with proven upset potential. Host the Beavs in next week's pillow fight.

    12) OSU - Blew their best shot at a win for the rest of the year...

    Arizona State is 3-1 (two cupcakes, big controversial win over Michigan State in the Spar_y Bowl, close loss to Colorado at home)

    Cal is 4-0 and ranked #15 (one cupcake, and then three good wins at Washington, vs North Texas and at Ole Miss)

    I was not impressed winning against North Texas by 6 points. Then again, I don't know North Texas at all, other than Houston plays up there tomorrow.

    Cal starts slow at home. Hopefully that changes tonight with good attendance.

  5. I block walked for Beto and Sri Kulkarni last year. I found it to be surprisingly rewarding, and I would like to do something similar next year.

    I see myself donating to a presidential candidate but otherwise directing my efforts down ballot. Sri is running again and a local TX House candidate is getting some buzz. There's a shockingly few number of TX House seats that need flipping (like 10?) in order to flip the whole chamber. That would be HUGE.

    Headed to Tucson (via Phoenix) with the boy on Friday.  It’s great knowing we may actually have a shot.  It was looking pretty hopeless through the first 3 and a half games of the season.

    It has to be reassuring going up against Sumlin again. Worked out well for you guys a couple years back.

  7. WTF...

    1) Oregon - They haven't shat the bed yet. That loss a Auburn doesn't look that bad

    2) Washington - Back into form. Oct 19th will be fun.

    3) USC - They have proven their depth. Helton is the one holding the team back.

    4) Cal - Only undefeated team remaining west of Norman. Solid road win against the SEC SEC SEC!

    5) Utah - Still a favorite to win the south.

    6) Colorado - Another south contender. Still don't know how that loss against the flyboys happened.

    7) WSU - Even the best Leach teams had their annual WTF game, but man...

    8 ) ASU - Mediocre to good team. Will know more after their visit to Berkeley this Friday.

    9) UCLA - Huge win, but need to see more, starting next weekend in the Desert.

    10) Stanford - Are they bad or just middling? Either way, it's a first for David Shaw.

    11) Arizona - Off yesterday. They need to beat UCLA.

    12) OSU - I don't think this team is really the worst. They get Furd at home next weekend.

    Cowherd spews a lot of unsubstantiated stuff sometimes, but interesting "source" info on Chip Kelly (about 11 min mark).  He's right, it's not about the winning, it's about everything else- disengaged recruiter, aloof with the media, aloof with the boosters.  Couple that with the shittiest performance in DI, and he may be wearing out his welcome fast.

     

    Of course it's about the winning (or lack thereof).

    Oregon fans and media tolerated all of Chip's personality quirks when the Ducks were winning P12 championships.

    He's wearing out his welcome because he's losing.
