  1. Has Fox News started telling its viewers the Democrats are being obstructionists for not helping the Republicans pick their speaker?
  2. It's so horrible. My father went the same way.
  3. Seeing reports the ambulance is still at the stadium and they are getting his mother from the stands. Not sure if that is good news or bad news. Also saw a report he has a pulse but not breathing on his own.
  4. When they just went to commercial it looked like the ambulance was no longer on the field and the field was clear of players as they were now on the sideline. Hope that dude didn’t die.
  5. Not sure if there was a thread on this documentary. Just watched it on Disney+ and thought it was a pretty good doc about the history of Abbey Road Studios. It was done by Mary McCartney, Paul’s daughter, and had tons of cool old footage and current interviews from Paul McCartney, Elton John (talking about being a session piano player on The Hollies He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother), Jimmy Page (talking about being a session guitarist on the Shirley Bassey recording of Goldfinger, Ringo Starr, Roger Waters and David Gilmour, John Williams, The Gallagher brothers and more. Worth a few hours of your time if you are a music and history fan.
  6. Urban Meyer, Bill Belichick, Vince Lombardi to name a few.
  7. Was that pass interference? The replay didn’t really show the correct angle to see what the db did. I guess he held him but couldn’t really tell.
  8. Maybe it’s not just Black and White but there is some gray areas also. I am still in the Hope category I guess but I see Sark’s problems also. At the same time I don’t see a roster that is “loaded” with talent like some on this board suggest. I get that the roster management is on Sark but he took the route of reloading with HS players versus transfers/portal guys. He doesn’t need a savior to be successful but he damn sure needs a OL that doesn’t get blown up on every other play. He needs WR’s that can catch and I think that is coming with Neyor, the freshmen and maybe another mystery portal WR. The OL will improve since we are playing so many freshmen which is a sign of the shitty roster that he inherited. Should Sark have gotten a upper classmen center and guards last year or this off season since guys like Jake Majors suck? He probably should have and that does fall on Sark. It sucks we went 8-5 this year but we had holes all over the roster/ no depth whatsoever and still do, but the roster is definitely improving compared to last year and many of the young players playing this year should improve going forward. Half this board wanted Pete K gone and now many of those people think he knows what he is doing. I think Sark will be similar in that all those saying he can’t call a good offense will change their tune once we have better Oline and WR play going forward. Lastly, I will give you another coach who is historically and laughably bad at clock management and also strange play calls at the wrong time. His name is Andy Reid and most consider him a solid coach especially when he has good talent to work with. If Sark gets his talent in place and still sucks he will be fired and we will be on to the next guy but right now I am content to wait another year before I call for his head on a platter.
  9. RIP
  10. O’Brien is such a horrible, piece of shit, garbage OC…. but compared to the current OC, Matt Patricia, who has no business calling plays for a 6 year old Pee Wee football team let alone the Patriots, means I will take Bill O Brien back as the Pats new OC in a cocaine heartbeat.
  11. Does Christmas Vacation count as a blockbuster? I loved the first one but never watched the Christmas one. My wife bitches at me that I’ve never seen the Sound of Music but it doesn’t interest me so why waste my time.
  12. As a Pats fan I hated the Marks Brothers but they were really good with Marino throwing to them. I don’t think having a bunch of small receivers will matter much since we have at least Sanders as the big TE target to go with all those WR’s. I mean, if we had a roster of all Tyreek Hill’s at WR we would be pretty dangerous, both on and off the field.
  13. If it's a weird decision then it definitely sounds like A&M will be his choice.
  14. Man I would love Hicks to choose Oregon today.
  15. I am patiently waiting for the 9 more A&M commits to announce today that they are entering the portal.
  16. They have an easy schedule every year. I see 7-5 (losses to Miami, Alabama, Tennessee, Ole Miss, and LSU). Question is do they lose a home game to the likes of Auburn, South Carolina and Miss State? I don't think they lose to Arkansas at Jerry World unfortunately either. Then again, if somehow they split with Arkansas, SC, Miss St, and Auburn and go 2-2 they could hit the back to back 5-7 seasons.
  17. I don’t know about you guys but I’m starting to get the feeling that a lot of players don’t want to continue playing in College Station anymore. Not sure why that would be. Maybe Karma really is a bitch.
  18. He is most likely gone and the whole situation sucks for everyone (him, his girlfriend, the players, fans, everyone) but I gotta say when I first heard he choked her I totally pictured him on top of her with both hands around her neck while she yelled,” it was the Dukes, it was the Dukes”. When you read the report it is him kind of behind her with a headlock on her for I believe 5 seconds and that is considered the choking. That seems like the same hold a cop would use to try and restrain someone while resisting arrest. At least he didn’t kneel on her neck, right? I have never hit my wife and like I assume all on here nobody should resort to physical violence against anyone but unless Chris or his fiancée are one of you posters none of us know what really happened in the house that night. We can speculate, guess and assume but nobody really knows.
  19. I believe you are referring to transparent aluminum.
  20. I would rather keep Beard and let him strangle people on the court during half time than have to watch a Barnes coached offense again.
  21. Well next year they could have Anthony Hill making 20 million dollars and nobody else at LB the way those dipshits are running that program.
  22. Maybe they are giving out a shit ton of scratch off tickets to each recruit with the hope that they could become a millionaire.
  23. This entire album.
  24. About 3-4 years ago my wife decided she wanted new couches and lounge chair for the living room and really liked some couches at Crate and Barrel. $12K later I had a 2 seat and 3 seat sofa plus a lounge chair that nobody sits in. Now she doesn’t like the color and says the dog ruined them by sitting on them. I told her the couches look fine, I like the dog so stop blaming him and for the money I spent those should last for the next 25 years.
  25. It is kind of “funny” when one of the Top RB’s in the country decides to go to a team where the coach is on the hot seat, just finished a 5-7 season in year 5, doesn’t have a offensive coordinator because they just fired the last guy and a ton of current players are hitting the portal to get away from the program. It’s one thing if Owens grew up always wanting to go to A&M and that was always his dream school or something but this doesn’t seem fishy at all, right? Same will go for Hicks, Hill, etc….
