  1. Great news. From 2010-2020, the only enjoyment I got from this program was the drama surrounding coach searches, PJ tracking, University presidents begging jags to come coach for us, recruiting hijinks, and Austin area hotel interior design analysis. Rarely watched the games. Had a blast.

    And it's not unique to the United States.  Go to rural (particularly Western) Canada.  Go to rural (particularly the Midlands) England.

    Go to East Germany.

    It's the same deal right across the developed (and developing) world.

    If you lived in Chemnitz on October 2, 1990, and you had the least bit of education, ambition, and good sense, you moved.  Maybe you went to Berlin.  Maybe you went to Frankfurt.  Hell--maybe you went to Vienna or Brussels.  But whatever--you got the fuck out.  Chemnitz was an industrial city with non-competitive industries built by the Communists; it wasn't going to do well in a new capitalistic economy.  And anyone with half a brain could've figured that out.  

    And they did.

    So who's left?  The people with less than half a brain.  And their descendents.  Oh--and more than a few people who have fled places like Ukraine, Syria, and Afghanistan.  And boy do the less-than-half-brained natives hate them.  Because those are people with the smarts and drive to flee a bad situation.  But don't worry, dear Chemnitzian--they won't be there for long.  They'll move on, leaving you behind again and making Chemnitz even less dynamic and desirable.

    But in the meantime, Chemnitz votes AfD.  In the same way that Leeds votes Reform.  And Kamloops votes Conservative.  And none of those are good for the democracies in those countries.

    Somehow, we've got to deal with those left-behinds.  I mean, they disgust me, too.  They disgust me in the way the crazy fat homeless woman on Congress Ave. who half the time has her nasty-ass tit hanging out disgusts me.  She's super gross and I wish she didn't exist.  But if we don't deal with her in some way, she's going to break into the new Japanese deli there between 6th and 7th and destroy the joint.  And I like the Japanese deli.  So I guess we have to figure out some way to deal with her stupid ass before she destroys the things on Congress Ave. that we like.

    look at the goddam elite worrying about some oriental deli....

    I talked to one of my cousins in Oklahoma, she and her husband have her parents farm, and they do farm (150 acres), but it's more of a side thing for them - her husband has a machine shop on the place and that's most of their income.  She said farmers are absolutely talking about Argentina and not happy at all about Trump throwing money at them, etc.

    She sent me this, and they have millions of members. She also said everybody is ripping into the legislators and asking why the fuck can't they get $40 billion.

    That can be read quite a few ways, but it's pretty clear that they and the Cattlemans' association are not happy with this.  These press releases were rushed out within a few days of the news hitting the wire.

    Trump's not a farmer and has absolutely no clue how many family farms are limping along, and being covered by "regular" jobs that one or both spouses have outside of the farm.

    r/LeopardsAteMyFace - National Cattlemen's Beef Association voted for Trump and supported him. They also supported Trump's horrible bill. Now that Trump is undercutting them by importing Argentinian beef, they have a problem and plead to him for help.

    lmao

    How about I'm simply posting videos of others speaking on the topic at hand.  I do find it interesting you feel the need to direct others on how to interpret my posts.  Don't you think that, by now, i would be eager to admit if you were even remotely correct, lol. Try harder. Now explain to them how "guilty by association" ad hominem attacks work counselor.

    nah...its like tommy sowells says... when you try and talk facts and analysis to a group of people with a sense of moral superiority, in their ignorance, you face futility.  you guys love your echo chamber.  i won't waste my time.  i think i'll just do my "drive by's".  i'm not gonna do the work for you.  figure it out for yourself.  

    Sense of moral superiority?

    we're not the ones worshipping at the feet of a pedophile.

    I think Sark is learning that a program like Texas that "recruits well" isn't quite the same as a Bama or Georgia of the recent past.  And learning himself that just stacking the talent like cordwood isn't all that easy.

    And I think that's a mistake all of us associated with this program make.

    Yeah, but if you look at the last 3 classes we've done anything but "stack talent" on the O-line. We've just kinda adopted a "Trust Flood's evals" mindset and it kinda looks like we got burned there.
