    I think the mountains/waves are welcoming TXST to the league, but whatever. Bad graphic?

    The new Pac thinks they're Power 5, too. Delusional?

    Regarding this graphic, has there been any legitimate sources indicating UTSA was going to the PAC?

    I know it's a welcome graphic, I just think that (like you apparently) that it's a bad/ poor choice/ looks stupid.

    I mean, no shit Sherlock. By definition, generational upsets are rare. But I'd rather have them than not, because they're a fuckload of fun.

    And App st vs aggy.

    Wasn't quite the same since they were at least FBS by then, but still a ton of fun of course. 

  4. In the last year Chainsaw has decided to expose himself as someone who knows only about half as much as he thinks he does multiple times. But worse, rather than learning and moving on, he doubles down in his wrongness and sticks his fingers in his ears. He's like an alternative reality Ani.

    That's because it's just about impossible to find a consistent gold from helmet to jersey to pants.  We just went from a more mustard-ish gold to a shinier version and it looks so much better.

     

    The mismatch between helmets and pants is a separate issue, but it's also one that is often exacerbated by the fact that helmets are still shiny, while pants rarely have a shiny fabric anymore - hence why they look tan instead of old gold, for example. 

    For example, see below. Early 2000's on top, 2020 on bottom. Sure, the gold doesn't match from helmet to pants, but at least in the first one they both looks like shades of gold, as opposed to the bottom, where the pants look like faded piss.

    Boston College is the only P4 team signed with New Balance.

    I hate how most iterations of gold on pants/ jerseys looks a lot more like beige/ tan nowadays.

    If the SBC's fans were super-passionate, they'd be driving higher TV ratings and its media contract would pay better than the AAC's. But, it doesn't. Maybe basketball raises the AAC > SBC? Money talks

    I'm not arguing that Charlotte is "better" than App State. But, the money says AAC affiliation benefits ECU more for now.

    How much of the AAC contracts/ money/ supposed interest is the residual of the much better teams it lost not long ago? Genuinely don't know. I'd watch the SBC all day over the AAC.

  8. I liked the conference champ byes of the current model just because it put some importance on the conference championship games again, which had largely been devalued in the original playoff. But oh well.

    If the Pac 12 had reached out to the Irate 8 (likely sans Baylor because religion) they could have absorbed KU, KSU, ISU, TTU, TCU and OK St and survived in the space the Big 12 occupies today.

    They wouldn’t have to fly all the way across the country and play most of the schools they’ve always played.

    But West Coast elitism won the day.  They couldn’t associate with prairie trash.  Although USC may be more responsible for that decision.  AZ and CU wanted to bring them in.

    Ding ding ding. USC nixed the idea. Was reported on by a few places.

    A few inches longer and wider (twss) than the 5th gen, but still much shorter than the Tahoe (16" longer and 3" wider than the 6th gen 4runner). I hear your opinion on the styling. I love my 2023 ORP, but it looks very dated inside and out to me.

    Fair enough. I very much like the older styling, and the few inches here and there make a big difference to me (lots of time on backcountry trails and off roading in tight places).

    Just speaking for myself, and as a person at the top of the waitlist at CP toyota for a 2025 TRDPro 4runner

    Random thought: I bought the same car but a year ago, so 2024 model. Love it, highly recommend. Components well tested. The 2025s are notably larger, approaching something like Tahoe size (downside for some of what I do - if I wanted a full sized SUV, I'd get a full sized SUV; I find myself annoyed that Toyota went this direction). Plus the 2025s are kind of ugly IMO.

    I don't have to integrate with dumb people. I have got better things to do in life. He was not just disagreeing with me. He has been hostile towards me and has shown very little reading compression in my opinion. I am not going to waste my time trying to understand him or his ilk.
