  1. As someone who has very fond memories of growing up in Texas, I expressed to my wife that I would love it if our daughter went to the same summer camp that I attended every summer for 8 years. I was met with a resolute "no," and told that if she goes to summer camp in Texas, she'll befriend lots of native Texans, who will then mostly attend college in Texas and our daughter may want to do the same. Couldn't really argue. I've spent the last decade explaining that Texas isn't "that bad" and the extremists don't really represent the state, but I really don't have a leg to stand on anymore.
  2. 1) Texas players are overrated 2) Texas underutilized their immense talent 3) Texas plays such an easy schedule, anyone could win 10 4) Texas loses all of that talent next year 5) They won't come close to 10 wins next year 6) repeat ad infinitum
  3. ah yes, driveling on and on . . . with my one sentence joke. lmao
  4. I'm not equating the two, but kinda funny after you hijacked the thread to go on a "France is full of cowards" rant, that this is your response when called out,
  5. Here's a clip of someone saying we should "kick ass and take names" here's a clip of a violent assault. Obviously the two are equal.
  6. Ok. Strange then for you to say "I wonder what she was saying? Probably something about "accepting the results" and "oh well fair is fair"" Which is all I was responding to. That said, now that you've corrected the record, please read pages 3-10 and compare Trump's actions to Hillary's remarks.
  7. Please read pages 3-10. When done, I'd be interested to hear how that compares to Hillary's hypothetical statements that you assume are equal. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cacd.841840/gov.uscourts.cacd.841840.260.0.pdf
  8. If I were to show that a DA's office was rife with cronyism, favoritism, and nepotism; or that there were shady financial dealings happening within, should those individuals be appropriately punished? Or should any defendant who was prosecuted by a said employee have their convictions thrown out and be released from custody? Because I think we're inventing a new industry here. Forget challenging the conviction on its face. Just hire a private investigator, dig up dirt on the DA, and then allege that the impropriety should result in a reversal. As a defense attorney, I'm on board.
  9. You might be underthinking it. As a trial attorney, there are always a few things that the opposing counsel will go after if they apply to my witness: 1) Is witness being paid by the defense? 2) Does the witness have a prior crime of moral turpitude on their record? 3) Has the witness been caught lying on the stand? Of all 3, the last one is by far the worst. And usually that takes the form of showing, via circumstantial evidence, that something the witness said is untrue. Rarely, if ever, have I seen a witness take the stand with an actual conviction for perjury on their record. If you were a juror, why would you trust a single word that comes out of the mouth of someone who will have to admit that on a prior occasion, after taking an oath (exactly like the oath he just took in front of you), he intentionally lied on the stand? In fact, as a juror, you will be instructed by the judge that due to the witness's prior lies, you are free to disregard every single word that comes out of the their mouth.
  10. Um what are you doing promoting that account?
  11. Chainsaws and chainsaw training
  12. Ah yes, maybe facts will change his mind
  13. Ah, there he is Welcome back, Sack.
  14. Has anyone tried raking the plains?
  15. Anyone want to see a reality show where this guy and TTom share an apartment together and have to get jobs? Like The Real World but on amphetamines?
  16. Is there any evidence of this other than the existence of the law, which also impacts hundreds of other businesses? Is there even any evidence that he pushed for this carve-out at all?
  17. Ah, you're a betting man. Care to make a wager on this one?
  18. Think we figured it out guys. No increase in COL, housing prices are only high because people are greedy and want to live in mansions on Park Ave., and everything has remained about the same for the last 50 years. Gonna head over 6th Street Journal and let everyone know the good news.
  19. 7? Far more optimistic than me.
  20. Yeah, please retract your personal desire that Brooks not be drafted by the Cowboys. Just can't have that around here.
  21. We probably will get 15 3-stars on On3 after they drop them once they commit. Remember, you can only get an accurate assessment of our 2025 class if you take into account the development of blue chips under Charlie Strong in 2015.
