All your early 90s great albums say happy birthday to your Godfather. After it's release record labels started to scoop up as many alt acts as they could find. Ritual turned 30 last Friday.

With all apologies, I would like to see Johnson or Robinson (why not both?) knock Walker and Bertelsen off the list. Moreover, it's time for a new name to hit the Top 5. Been a long time since Jamaal.
No Priest Holmes? That's amazing.

Liquid Metal is a great station that plays lots of new and otherwise obscure (at least obscure to me) metal. They do put a lot of newer stuff into heavy rotation (I'm pretty tired of hearing Tetrarach and Code Orange every hour or so), but it's only in the rotation for a couple of months before getting squeezed out by the next new release. It's helped me get into a lot of stuff I wouldn't have otherwise known about. I mean I don't love everything they play or anything, but overall I dig their approach. I also like having live DJs as opposed to a computerized setlist being played to me, because they bring in cool info about bands, tours, shows, interviews, etc. And their specialty shows are also good. Never heard Coroner's cover of Purple Haze until today, for example, thanks to the Corridor of Covers show.
That being said, I only listen to other Sirius stations to break up the day or when kids are in the car so I can't say the above is true for other channels. DJs on the Boneyard generally make me want to veer off the road into a ditch.

No, but a person can also die from COVID and not have a positive test to show for it. Other countries just aren't tracking this like we are, not even remotely as close.
Do you still think China has only had 4700 deaths?
The US has 5% of the world's population and 25% of the world's COVID deaths. But since I suspect you'll disregard numbers and facts, let me get meta. Before the pandemic we were the richest and most powerful nation in the history of the world. We could've and should've mitigated this far better than we did. Spin the numbers however you like. Trump fucked this up from the jump and there's no disputing that. Trump's lack of response has killed more than 175,000 people. It's like saying Midland, Brownsville, or Killeen just don't exist anymore. Poof.
Fuck Trump in the goat ass for pushing our great country to oblivion.

Jesus man, stop trying to play this fucking morality card that if someone disagrees with something you believe in they are the enemy or somehow corrupt.
My taxes will definitely be lower this year, since my salary was slashed in the wake of the government's COVID mismanagement. Still, I consider myself lucky to pay less taxes compared to the 10 million people out of a job. Fuck Trump and all of his bullshit, and fuck him especially for enabling the rich to make an additional $300 billion since COVID hit.

Athletics is not a huge part of a university's operating revenue. At least at most places. The revenue from the "money" sports essentially covers the cost of the non-revenue sports. The excess is not thrown into the university general fund. At UCLA, athletics revenue isn't even a blip on overall incoming cash.
Thanks SB. You're totally right about that. However, I believe that more revenue from Texas' athletics goes to the university's general fund than in most places, probably because Texas football is so lucrative that there is more to go around. I could be wrong about that; I don't really know how much is shared beyond Belmont. But overall the consideration to kick students off campus and have athletes on campus is a fiscal one at its core, not borne from a "football championship or bust" mentality.

Nothing encapsulates just how fucking upside-down our priorities are as a society than to send home all the non-athlete students from college and keep the athletes so we can preserve 'amateur' athletic competition.
Universities are businesses now. Universities are solvent because of grant money, legislative allotments, room and board, tuition, and athletics. Athletics is a huge piece of that pie, and if they can keep that money rolling in it will more than offset the room and board they would've gotten. Especially at Texas.
