  1. I've been to nearly every part of Indiana including Bloomington, ya know, where the games are actually played. Its a fun college town and close to Indianapolis which is very underrated.
  2. Why? I'd love to understand your logic of pulling for Penn State over a well coached underdog of a team in IU. Because they broke the mold, found a good coach and used NIL wisely?
  3. Hence why it was #1 on my list. Been there a lot as when I lived in Chicago. A good friend used to run a tailgate there. Tons of fun.
  4. Well, sir, you are not forced to attend. Though if it is an NFL stadium it shan't be Jerrah World, cause fuck giving that guy money.
  5. I love Vegas. Restaurants (and not just on strip) Spas, shows, helicopter tours of the Strip, Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam, badass airforce jets flying overhead, a lot of cool lesser known sites like Meowolf, Pinball Hall of Fame and Neon Museum. Shooting guns you can't anywhere else, off roading in 4 wheelers, shopping (window or for real). Last but certainly not least people watching. I "retired" from playing poker, don't otherwise gamble aside from throwing $100-200 occasionally at Paigow, don't drink at all and don't sleep with sex workers. However, I still have an amazing time in Las Vegas.
  6. I love a winner and money for me and my team! Playing the academies doesn't help any of those. Why are you a communist?
  7. Of places I've been that I'd enjoy returning to watch Texas play: Wisconsin Washington USC Arizona State CU Indiana BYU Michigan State Places I'd like to go: Oregon Miami Goopher (sept schedule no Nov game) Duke or North Carolina (I'm good with both) Northwestern Clemson Louisville (Note these don't include any SEC teams) If we're talking smaller schools UT Chattanooga (vasty underrated city) Montana State UAB San Diego State U Maybe schedule a scrimmage at Pepperdine? I'd personally rank my SEC cities: Austin (because I have to of course) Nashville Knoxville Lexington Baton Rouge (only cause its close to NO) Athens Tuscaloosa Columbia (Haven't been to Gainesville) Yes I left some cities off. We know whay they are and I'm not a fan.
  8. It's romantic and I get it, but there's no upside from a SOS stand point. Plus CS and Annapolis would be cool once for the novelty, but personally I'd never go back. I'm pretty confident many would feel the same way.
  9. Eh.. I would personally align the tech advances closer to rockets, radar and jet engines of WWII. All of them critical but never a replacement for men with guns. (A-bomb was the biggest tech leap but I'm addressing land acquisitions and those don't work so well in that pursuit) The battlefield will continue to evolve even past what we are now seeing with drones and missles into mechanized artillery/heavy weapons to name just one but those need materials and maintenance to function. The core of war always has been and always will be supply lines and even with technology the capability to run them and keep them running will require humans for the foreseeable future.
  10. I mean, in this instance, Trump isn't technically wrong. It all depends on who specifically one is referring to when using "Russians" and how one define the word "want". -edit please note sarcasm tags prior to forcing on a maga hat on my head.
  11. Why do you hate the Cowboys so much?
  12. He got busy with family stuff, having kids, work. Shifted a bit to political cartoons. Got less interested in Texas sports or at least drawing MS Paint about them. Moved on. That's pretty much what I picked up from him in his last posts anyway. People's interests change over time, and their allocation of their time changes with it.
  13. Naw brawl! Naw, naw!
  14. Nope, the reason I noted generators first. I have a whole house generator and I know everyone in my "hollar" can hear it when it kicks on. Tennessee grid likes to compete with Texas grid for "How can it suck so bad" trophies.
  15. Seems officiating is shit everywhere. Watching ND last week, when BC was giving them fits in the 1st half the odds making flags came out. I mean penalty flags.
  16. Asset hoarding among the wealthy will begin to fight the cold. Don't think the middle class and poor wont notice the running generators the rich can afford to source and the lights = heat on in their homes. Mean while they are cold in the dark. That video above mentioned it, you can't spin that knowledge and day to day reality out of existing with propaganda.
  17. I'll never care for those gimmicky lining up offset Nerd used for the PAT. Houston scores again off an INT. Interesting.
  18. I have to surprise pop in to one of these someday just to watch 4 hours of Emo (aka Darlene) and Gremlin (aka Valerie) getting ignored by Luna. Darlene would just move to people, Gremlin would be persistent.
  19. Honestly, put AI of Mickey as play by play and Pluto as color. Use the voices of Samuel Jackson and AI of John Madden. SJ- "These mother fucking lineman layin' wood opened up a hole bigger than old New Orleans whore." JM - "Speaking of boom, that is a hole... lot of love for your running back." SJ - "My man. Flag is down, let this mother fucker say holding one more time, I dare him" JM - "Sometimes you just gotta reach out and touch someone Sammy."
  20. Oh man, I applaud your naive enthusiasm. You will be hearing from your oligarch overlords.
  21. Ehh.. from a pure liability stand point it's better to let the dust settle. From a PR stand point letting the story spread in social media prior does not end up with you looking like a bad guy when your employee got stabbed. Combine them both and for a proper legal and social media CYA get all the facts, make sure the public is aware of facts, then make a move. We living in Murica and post on Surly. Legal and social media applications should be common knowledge round here. Wait, are you a lawyer?
  22. Well, the committee doesn't appear to agree with your view. Our schedule if we beat Pig and aggie will have a victory over a top 10 team and losses to 2 top 5 teams + Florida. To leave Texas out would fly directly in the face of their claim to want teams to schedule strong OOC games. So if that comes to pass their hypocrites and will have lost a lot of face. Based on current polls, it seems pretty clear they aren't hypocrites and intend to reward difficult schedules.
  23. We go 11-2 there is a 100% chance we are #2 with B1G in the #1 spot save a crazy and extremely unrealistic nose dive by BOTH OSU and IU.
  24. Well, I tried to keep it focused and flung zero poo. I'm just going to say it was a tragic loss of life and I feel for the Kneeland family. Be kind to others and support your friends and family as best you can when they are suffering. I'm out.
  25. I feel pretty confident Wisner finds a home as a utility RB/Player somewhere. He's always consistent, always runs hard and has never been injured. I think some scouts are going to recognize the OL run issues he has dealt with the last 2 year while still being a very productive back. Goosby as others have already noted isn't ready, imo. Taaffe is a proven team leader. I could see him going higher into a team that lacks that on D. (For Taaffe don't be Dallas) Hill is a beast someone absolutely sees his value.
