  1. I don’t care how, please beat these tools.
  2. Bringing some class to ass-to-mouth.
  3. I’m a fan. Enjoy it while it lasts though. That level of physicality at RB has maybe a 5 year shelf life. Hope he at least gets to a big second contract.
  4. I'm so confused. They aren't fighting back and are in fact amplifying everything, anti-immigrant rhetoric in particular. The Texas National Guard is about to fucking invade Chicago FFS. Nobody is stopping them. The most hopeful moment of the last year was some stonefaced generals in a room and that hasn't manifested into anything.
  5. I didn’t know those podcasts were multiple hours. I don’t think any of my regular podcasts are longer than an hour. I’ve been listening a lot to Conan O’Brian Needs a Friend and they are good interviews and pretty funny.
  6. Yeah I’m gonna have to disagree with imma here too. They are succeeding at everything. Only people on the left who are losing elections are “pushing back” and that’s not really the right term because there’s nothing they can do but point out how bad it’s getting and just hope some faction on the right will emerge to say “enough.” I’d like to think that deploying one states national guard against another might be that tipping point but nope. It’s going to take something like military opening fire on a group of US citizens and slaughtering dozens of them during a peaceful protest on private land (notice all of the qualifications there) and even then I’m skeptical it makes a difference. The speaker of the house would be on the floor praising the president and military for putting down an insurrection. Notice they’re already using that word to refer to anyone left of center?
  7. What should be a winning message is that Rs can't govern and are responsible for moster defecits and multple shutdowns. In reality, the winning message is that trans people exist and Mexicans and war on Portland and Chicago.
  8. Yup, current iteration is the best since the 90's brand. Prefer the old one but the new one is good compared to what came in between.
  9. To be clear I'm not saying that just anyone can step in and coach a paid and loaded roster and yeah prior blueblood down years proves that really bad coaching can mess up even with elite talent. I'm speaking purely in the context of the first coaching search at OSU since I was a student and the new landscape we need to navigate. I think collecting NIL commitments is way more important than who we hire. Considering its almost certainly going to be a G5 HC or P4 coordinator there is going to be risk either way and my concern is less about who that name is as how much we can raise.
  10. Death to bevels.
  11. Yes I know, that's what fucking depresses me the most, and why I think our democracy is over.
  12. I've watched enough of Burr to think that the segment just didn't work. I've heard him do edgy stuff that never struck me as anywhere close to the bro shit that is out of control in the Roganshpere, etc. Still really disappointed in the Saudi stuff though.
  13. Here we go again. Dems are problematic becasue they focus on policy. You know, the things lawmakers are supposed to be focused on developing and implementing. I get the point, its just fucking depressing that our country is so full of stupid people that government policy is less important than soundbites and vilification of others. BTW, the dems are focused largely from what I can tell on pointing out that R's are in charge and this is their fault. Sometimes it gets followed up with the detail to combat the bullshit "they want healthcare for illegals." That latter soundbite works, because our country is fucking pathetic. Since republicans are going to dominate going forward I'm all for just dismantling the whole fucking thing. Let the states take back full control so the south can be it's pathetic self with it's marginal economies and let the west coast and northeast corridors dominate and keep their own tax money. And yes I also know that's not how it would work,
  14. I guess I didn't think it was confusing, money buys talent. Point is that McGuire didn't become an elite coach overnight, his players just got a lot better. That's not a knock on him or Tech, it's the new way forward, and I'm hoping my school can find a way to make it happen.
  15. Tech is the model showing that money is more important than coaching. It's why I'm way more concerned with compiling NIL commitments before OSU hires a new coach. Saw a rumor yesterday that we have an up and coming billionaire who is good friends with Dana Holgorson and might throw his weight behind the roster if we hire him as HC. I'm not entirely thrilled with the idea of Holgy returning as HC but if it comes with a fully funded roster, I'm all for it, because that is what's more important. Let others do some of the HC heavy lifting like roster and locker room management and let him coach offense and bring in a good independent DC to do the same? I'd take that setup over the old model even if it was Saban or some other old legend (yes I know he's not in the running just making a point).
  16. Looks like they’re moving to soccer stadiums. The Renagades appear to be going to Toyota Stadium. They’re probably still too big for this league but better than pro stadiums I guess. I expect they will clear the yard lines entirely for soccer game. Nothing looks worse than watching soccer played on football lines even if they’re faded.
  17. I guess I don't really follow this drama, but isn't it a good thing if he got in shape, regardless of the fact it shouldn't have taken this long and that his motivation might have been financial? Take the win and hope it works out.
  18. Thread title should be changed to 8-8-1, right on track, lol.
  19. lol pedo. Franlkkin gonna be fired on the tarmac on arrival right?
  20. Pope is obviously correct re Catholic dogma. Along those lines, what about divorced Catholics sans formal annulment (i.e.,the vast majority of Catholic divorces)? In particular, those in subsequent relationships/partnerships? Can they get Catholic awards without all the crying? Nah, just 'bortion and gheys.
  21. Interesting. I wonder if they're taking my comment from a while back to play in much smaller stadiums so stands don't look empty and focus on TV ratings for bored post NFL weekends. I think most markets should have a very nice high school or small college stadium that could be used. If the Arlington team stays in the old baseball stadium it would kind of go against this statement though, right? It's far from a small intimate setting, it's a massively oversized bush league looking setup craming it within a baseball stadium footprint.
  22. Maybe she’s finally on meds for the crazy?
  23. I can see that I guess, there does seem to be a special appeal to the suburban family crowd and this demographic.
  24. Are you speaking to something unique about a Bananas crowd that gives you that impression as opposed to any other sports crowd in this part of the country? Or groupings of people in general these days? I just assume that unless it's an artistic or education or cultural focused event that 75% to 90% of everyone around me is a raging asshole, politically speaking. I'll never understand the complaints. It's a fun product that I can appreciate without interfering with my appreciation for a regular game too. I think NASCAR is quite literally the dumbest "sport" to ever exist. It's fucking cars driving in circles for crying out loud and even live the action passes your seats only occassionally. But there's an audience for it so it has a right to exist and I just don't watch.
