Genius Kirby Smart just made one of the dumbest decisions I've ever seen. FIRE SARK!

I don't think Indiana is insanely talented. They are smart kids who were willing to buy into Cignetti's system and they play with incredible discipline. Mistakes are half the battle (ahem, Texas offensive line). Limit penalties and turnovers, keep the ball in front of you on defense w/o sagging off too much (ahem, PK), and oh yeah land a super smart pretty talented QB and his system works.

The Guitar Pron Thread
Speaking of Veruca Salt, this live clip always kills me. Just a fantastic song by a fantastic band. Look at that crowd, holy crap!

Yeah, I'm thinking Liz Phair meets Juliana Hatfield, but with a better rhythm section.

I'm no insider -- was Herman a drunk or was it drugs? Or all of the above?

I was thinking exactly that. 35-8 (82%) over 3 years with a conference title and two Final 4 appearances = "mediocre"? For fuck's sake, buy a dictionary, dude.

Who are you suggesting?

Yeah, finding a better HC at this point is impossible.

PK's style worked well for a depleted talent pool. He had shown he could manage such a roster at Boise State and UDub. By the time we were putting guys like Simmons and Ant on the field he just wasn't the right guy for the job. Muschamp will be a significant upgrade.

It's a new era and judging by old standards is likely foolish. Insane levels of roster turnover have injected chaos and luck into the equation. I don't care about revenue sharing or NIL, but they need to fix the portal. Multi-year contracts would help.

Texas is easily the best HC job in college football. Some of you people -- YOU PEOPLE -- are fucking idiots.

Van Halen Appreciation thread
Based on that video alone, if I were looking to hire a drummer, I'd go with Wolf over Alex. Granted, Alex wrote those parts, but Wolf's kit sounds far better and frankly I like the toughness of his groove more.

Good deal, try to check them out.

Top 10 2025
Yeah, things got better. I probably attributed some things to the band that were out of their control. Ultimately the tour went off well and the bands are now buddies.

AI and suggestion
My only caveat with "new" music is that what you hear on the recording might be a highly sterilized and optimized version of what the artist can really pull off. More than ever, the live show is where you really get to see what they can do.

Foo Fighters or The Killers?
I'm not going to suggest you shold like the others, but "Monkey Wrench" is a bitch of a song to write. Those little hooks seemingly came out of nowhere. Show me another song prior to that which had those litle riffs and then the melodic hook. It's just an amazing, super original rock tune. HOF worthy on its own.

Foo Fighters or The Killers?
It's astonishing. Just the heavyweight 1-2 punch of "Monkey Wrench" and "Everlong" puts it in, oh, maybe top 100 rock albums of all time? Then you have "My Hero". Is it "Nevermind"? Nope, and you alluded to that. In MY world, The Killers have never made a record close to that, but that's why we all get to buy what we buy and think what we think.

Trump’s America
Yes Rob, the reason Mark Ruffalo can get work as an actor and you can't has nothing to do with the fact that he is truly gifted and you are a C-level hack. It's all politics.

Quinn "La Joya" Ewers - The Man The Myth The Mullet, Now Starting for the Miami Dolphins
Quinn also suffered a bunch of injuries at Texas, some of which he played through (ankle, oblique, etc.). He's now had nearly a year to heal up.
