    Do you want me to say "coke"?  I'll say "coke" when I'm talking about Coke.

    "Soda" is for people who are trying to impress you with their faux sophistication.

    Well, "soda" is what it's called. "Sodey-Pop" makes you sound like an 8 year old from the 50's. And "Pop" makes one sound like a backwoods redneck, based on its use here in rural Oklahoma.

    why on earth would trump agree to do this? how could kellyanne conway allow this to happen? this has been ongoing from fucking february through july of this year, all through this pandemic. and trump was on the record, the whole fucking time. what did he think would happen?

     

    Because nothing fucking matters. He'll gain in the polls again. They'll spin it as a "witchhunt." Tapes be damned. Lies don't matter. Libtears. This will improve his stock in the election. Because 'murica.

    My 15-y.o son asked yesterday, "What's up with Odell?" I could only answer with an I don't know.  You know his buddies will tell him.  F'in internet/social media.  What percentage of you fellas had any idea being shat upon was a thing when you were 15?

    Today's 15 year olds have seen some shit man, literally. The internet and all.

    Came here to look for the game week thread. I must admit it is hard to get exited but the honor should go to an avid long time poster. So if you feel you are one of those guys get it done.

    It was game week for me too, then it wasn’t. Because everything is fine.

    Yeah, team subtitles here. With the whole trend towards muted dialog and loud background music it really helps you pick up on stuff you would have otherwise missed.

    This. Everything now seems to have wide fluctuations in volume and bad accents. Add in kids interrupting and I pretty much have cc on all the time. I also remember watching The Godfather the first time having no idea wtf was going on. Second time used cc, while different movie.

  6. Watched a few episodes of Hoops this weekend. Animated comedy with lots of cussing. The animation style reminds me of Rick and Morty. Looks like the critics are shitting all over it, but I'm finding it entertaining for what it is and expect a few quotable phrases to come out of it.

    MLB has had many series canceled/delayed.  They are still chugging along, without a bubble.  It CAN be done.

    MLB also plays several times a week, can do makeup games with double headers, and comparisons of records is less problematic when there are so many games are played. How is the Big XII going to compare records when games are inevitably cancelled and not made up? What if Bedlam or TX/OU are cancelled due to outbreaks? What if ISU doesn't play OU because of an outbreak while everyone else has to play them? What if a team is unable to play two of OU, TX, OSU, meaning they avoid some of the highest ranked teams on their schedule? That is my biggest concern. I think it is going to be a complete clusterfuck to determine who plays for the conference title.

    I think November might not be the worst idea. It gives them time to get ready and raises the possibility of the pandemic being over, or nearly over, by the time they start.

    Of course then you are playing football in Michigan and Minnesota outside in November, December, and January.

    The pandemic will not be over by November. It is likely in fact that there will be another spike with colder weather and more people being indoors, like with the cold and flu. Which is why I do not understand everything being delayed by a weeks or even months. If you're comfortable playing during a pandemic just fucking play with protocols in place. It doesn't matter if you start this week or two weeks from now. There isn't going to be any major change until a vaccine is available and widely distributed, and we are still a long, long way off from that.

    And 12 games to 10 is just pointless. The only thing that would have made sense is 12 to say 6 games, with 2-3 weeks between games to allow for teamwide quarantines without disrupting the schedule. I guarantee you there will be dozens upon dozens of games where players are found to have been infected and quarantining for 14 days is the accepted standard here. If that happens and a game is scheduled for the next week, there are going to be lots of cancellations.

    While the $1,000 aggy "yell leader" challenge still hasn't been claimed, let's have another game, this one just for fun.

     

    I appreciate your aggy takedowns, but this passive aggressive style is tiring. We get it, there was no game in 1907 where that story actually happened. Their own website says "as legend has it" which is about the most self-aware thing I've ever read from anything aggy official, essentially admitting that it is a legend and not necessarily fact. I do find it weird that they can't track down with some certainty the first time a few morons wore janitors outfits and acted like morons considering it has been ongoing for more than 100 years.

    If we’re being truthful with ourselves, it’s not really a state. It’s a giant goat pasture reservation, and the white guys are a bunch of jort-wearing, sister-fucking toothless meth heads. 

    Sir, we are not Nebraska.

    I believe they were forced to adopt a new one this summer:

    Haha, just the majority of Tulsa and some shithole towns to the south like Okmulgee. In all seriousness, I wish we'd go back to our original flag. The current one is a jumbled mess of Indian symbols that no one can ever draw from memory, and one of the key principals of vexology is that if you have to spell out the place it's not a distinctive flag. The old one is simple and just looks good. The 46 represents Oklahoma being the 46th state.
