    Yep I think even if TCU were to lose to KSU, they would be pretty much a lock to get an at-large NY6 bowl with a 12-1 record, putting us in the Alamo. I know some think TCU wouldn’t get a NY6 bowl because they aren’t a big draw, but I can’t imagine a 12-1 P5 team not getting a bid.

    I think the only way we go Cheez It is if TCU loses two straight here and ends up in the Alamo (would be hilarious).

    Or KU can do something magical and give us a rematch.

    Or, if TCU wins the Big 12, someone has to go to a NY bowl because TCU would be in the playoffs. We’d have the same record as KSU with the head to head win.

    Really?  We spotted them 10 pts, completely shut them down in the 2nd half, won by 11, easily could've been 18, minus scoop and score it could've been 25...so yeah.

     

    Again, my question is if PK gets to hure secondary coaches that work with his system.

    If Baylor would have punted on first down every series, we would have shut them out.

  3. I’m not a COVID vaccine conspiracy theorist, but…

    Just got home Tuesday night after 3+ months in hospitals and nursing homes. The shorthand version is that I had 8 separate strokes and heart attacks while backing up my car from my driveway. My heart stopped 3X and I had to be brought back via CPR and the paddles. I spent my first 2 weeks in a coma and on a ventilator. The doctors gave me a 99% chance of not living through that first night. I’m now on dialysis 3X a week and doing PT/OT so I can walk again unassisted. I don’t do drugs and only socially drink every few months. Had 2 Pfizer shots in 2021 and my Pfizer booster on MLK day in 2022. Had my first hospital stint in Feb. 2022 for 4 days because my gait was off and I couldn’t walk straight without a cane. Started this latest stint in August. Turns out I had a blood clot in my leg that spread to my lungs and brain. I’ve been on various blood thinners up until a few days ago to get rid of the clot. I’ll be 44 in January and am in good health beyond Type 2 diabetes, which is now the most controlled that it ever has been. My resting heart rate is between 110-153 bpm and my blood pressure is all over the map.

    I’ve been told a myriad of different theories by doctors on how this happened. However, I have read a few different articles that hit a little too close to home. Apparently, people that have received the Pfizer shots/boosters have an increased risk for the following side effects: heart attacks, strokes, unusual blood clots and kidney failure. These are the exact same symptoms that I experienced. Coincidence? Perhaps. I just wish we had more data on what we are injecting into our bodies and the long term effects. Despite following “the rules” I’ve had COVID 2X that I’m aware of.

    “Relative to the Moderna group, Pfizer recipients had an excess per 10,000 people of 10.9 ischemic strokes (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.9 to 17.4), 14.8 heart attacks (95% CI, 7.9 to 21.8), 11.3 other abnormal blood clotting (95% CI, 3.4 to 17.7), and 17.1 cases of kidney injury (95% CI, 8.8 to 30.2).

    The corresponding risk ratios for Pfizer versus Moderna were 1.17 (95% CI, 1.03 to 1.28) for ischemic stroke, 1.32 (95% CI, 1.16 to 1.49) for heart attack, 1.20 (95% CI, 1.05 to 1.32) for other blood-clotting events, and 1.16 (95% CI, 1.08 to 1.29) for kidney injury.

    In analyses that didn't exclude COVID-19–related adverse events, estimated risk differences were only marginally higher except for that for pneumonia, which rose from 5.9 (95% CI, −2.9 to 12.7) to 20.9 (95% CI, 11.4 to 29.5) events per 10,000 participants.

    In the 14 days after the first vaccine dose, the estimated risk of adverse events were low and comparable between the groups. In the first 42 days, the estimated risks were also low, but relative to Moderna recipients, Pfizer recipients had excess abnormal blood-clotting events (1.8; 95% CI, 0.2 to 4.2), heart rhythm abnormalities (7.5; 95% CI, 1.9 to 11.5), and kidney injuries (3.8; 95% CI, 2.1 to 8.0) per 10,000 people.”

    Options for discount show tickets, similar to Tix4Tonight in Vegas? Do they have kiosks in NYC like Vegas? We're thinking about going to a show next month but not a huge want. If there's day-of options we have flexibility to go that route. 

    Thanks in advance. 

    Let me know what shows/dates you are looking at. I always forget that I get discounted tickets through work.

    So CSR has an 80k bonus again.  I got it 8 years ago on the CSR and I got the CSP 80k bonus right at two years ago.  My records show I opened the CSP Nov 3 but I don't know when I actually go the 80k deposit.  I assume it took me a few months to rack up the spend.  So Im pretty close to being past the 48 mths   I poked around the chase website but can't really see back that far as to when I actually got the bonus.  Any ideas on how to find that date?

    Call the automated 1-800 line on the back of the card and see when your last payment was.

    i do my best yall.

    not everything is cut and dried or codified in some way that i can run every comment on this website through "moderator bot" for appropriate levels of distastefulness.  if it's just me wondering, generally, i leave well enough alone. but if i'm responding to a report and i can see the context of the thread...

    i dunno. i do my best with my judgement. i'd rather not suspend anyone, but this is a community with self-policing standards and pretty hands-off rules as far as things go. parliament caught a 24 hour suspension. it's not the end of the world for him or anybody, but i'm sensitive to these remarks, so i'll take it under consideration. 

    That’s a lot of words to say that you fucked up.

    Sark wont pull Ewers for Card. Johntay Cook liked a tweet saying “Hudson Card is trash” a few weeks back when Quinn was hurt. The recruits are all here watching this shit.

    It would be like VY getting pulled for Chance Mock because he was looking like shit.

    Wait…
