    CSB/ Back in my Church's days on Wm. Cannon, Kaiser Bob was a regular customer, would shoot(no pun intended) the shit with him whenever I was working, nice enough man.  I dare not tell him him I was a UK fan given his meltdown after a loss to UK when he was at Ole Miss, believe he may have left for Texas right after that.  FTR, he liked dark meat(thighs).  /csb

    The point guard on that team was the dude who raised Michael Oher (along with Sandra Bullock of course)....

    You may be getting crossed up here. I didn't mention Imus, and I'm sure as hell not defending him. I was pushing back on whoever said it's common now for people to be fired simply for being honest on air.

    Curly mentioned him as an example (I think) of a person who was fired because he tripped up and was honest in his racism in front of a microphone. To me that means he was fired for being a racist asshole, not for being "honest".

    If School Daze had come out 19 years later maybe more than .01% percent of the population would have realized he was using a phrase from a movie and not something he dreamed up on his own...

    Yes don’t put it over the fireplace because everyone will destroy their C1-C4 vertebrae straining upward to watch tv, all in the name of the convenience of having the tv not take up space elsewhere. #TVonfireplaceSux; #stoptvperversion. 

    Before I even read any other responses...this is the correct answer. Don’t mount a TV above the fucking fireplace. When you go to an empty movie theater, do you sit in the first 4-5 rows?

    It seems to me that a pivot table would be the way to go

    If you have the flexibility to have your dataset have a ‘stat’ column with a value of A, B, or C (as opposed to having it spread across three columns) this is definitely the way to go. At that point it’s the max of a single column and everything else can be set with filters/slicers (I think the latter look better)....

  5. Similar to a bobbled fair catch in football; most players don’t realize if it hits the receiver and bounces straight up into the air, the kicking team still can’t touch the ball until it hits the ground.

    Won a beer over this from a WVU douchebag across the aisle from me during the 2016 game...

    That’s a damn good name for a football player who plays on defense...... or a street tough, two fisted detective who plays by his own rules. 

    Or a down on his luck loser who’s made bad choices at every turn and has to resort to giving flying Ts in the parking lot of truck stops just to make ends meet...

    Both tacos.

    Buzbee and the Texans are in cahoots somehow. 

    There is a very good chance ol' Tony has stepped on a landmine here. Rusty's counter-attack is going to be comprehensive and nobody on that side will be safe, lawyers included. 

     

    Yes, there is a chance DeShaun Watson is a predator. Prior to last week, there was no evidence of that at all. In fact, there was evidence that he was a solid citizen and all-around good guy. At this point there are a lot of accusations, but all of them are anonymous. And again, I cannot stress how weird it is that Buzbee nor any of these plaintiffs want a penny from Watson.  

    On the other hand, we have long known the Texans to be an inept organization, and increasingly, with the rise of Easterby, even borderline insane. I only know that from outside observation. I believe @OWLVIS has had dealings with them personally, and he seems unwilling to put much of anything past Cal and co. 

    What motivation would the Texans have to push this story out into the public eye? Try to trade him or beg him to stay, this doesn’t help either goal...

    Lulz. Women should expect men to treat them like shit is quite the take.

    and the comparison I was making was not between what Cosby did and Watson allegedly did. It was that a successful wealthy person could actually be a sexual predator and how hard it would be to come to terms with the reality they are. How much evidence do you need? 30 women to come forward? 50?

    Discussing the nuance of what, sexual harassment versus sexual assault? You do realize how retarded that sounds, right? 

    Tell you what hotshot. Since you think what Louis CK id was so benign. Why don't you get on a Zoom Call with all the women in your office and start masturbating and come back and tells us how it went for you and the women involved?

    Give me Louis’ bankroll as a built-in “I can never work another day and be good” safety blanket and you’ve got a deal...

    My guess is he wants to coach in the NBA but he loves texas so you’d have to think he’d consider it. It’s likely the only NCAA job he’d consider and then, only if we get to him before he gets his feet wet in the league. 

    Some guys just don’t want to deal with shit like recruiting and players grades and parents and shit, so they’re always going to be NBA guys. Brad Stevens was apparently that way even though he was a hell of a college coach. No idea about Royal, but you’ve got to think if he’s interested in college coaching at all this job was be toward the top of his list...

    Highly regarded amongst our NBA Horns, apparently.  Lots of people really like him and think he’s the real deal.

    If he coaches with the same mentality that he played I’m 100% on board...

    He has two more years of guaranteed pay. In all likelihood, he keeps coaching even as a lame duck coach. Are boosters going to pony up for basketball right after the seismic payouts in football? I doubt it. Texas isn't a men's basketball school.

    It’s not a women’s basketball school either...
