  1. WHO DOESN’T WANT TO WEAR THE RIBBON!!!!!??????
  2. Don’t know if Mando will die, but yeah seems like it may go back to Bo Kotaan considering how she was wielding it. Another possibility (assuming they introduce her this season prior to the Ashoka show) is Sabine Wren.
  3. Yeah there was a whole thing in Rebels where Kanan was teaching Sabine who to wield the dark saber and talked about this. Apparently there is something similar (but not exactly the same) with a Jedi and their lightsabers.
  4. Put me on Team I want to B-B-B-B-B-Bone B-B-B-B-B-Bo Kataan.
  5. Those are my every day balloons...
  6. Yeah agreed. But I think the regionals and CWS do at least get pretty extensive coverage from ESPN at least. And I should note that the Pokes have 2 of the first 3 from Arizona State and we've won 7 straight now. (knock wood)
  7. Yeah not unlike OSU's connection to Texas. Obviously Texas HS football is the lifeblood of our program, but also there are tons of "regular" students from Texas who attend OSU because they recruit the hell out of the DFW and Houston metros for kids who are good students but maybe can't get in to Texas or A&M.
  8. The Venn diagram of this demo and Surly posters is a perfect circle.
  9. Going all the way back to the Big 8 days, Colorado fans were pretty much universally despised. One of their more notorious activities were, when there was snow on the ground, they would load up snowballs with batteries and chuck them at visiting fan sections.
  10. I was told there would be no reading.
  11. True love is hard to find... Sometimes you think you have true love and then you catch the early flight home from San Diego and a couple of nude people jump out of your bathroom blindfolded like a goddamn magic show ready to double team your girlfriend...
  12. LOL. I made the awesome decision of watching Old School stoned back in the day. I almost passed out in this scene because I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe, lol.
  13. I thought we were in the trust tree...in the nest...are we not?
  14. I suggest you stop being such a fag. You're in the back seat!
  15. 100%. I try to judge shows based on what they are trying to accomplish. Mando is a rousing "adventure of the week" series with inspiration from westerns, samuri and 80s prime time action series. Andor is a cerebral, dialog driven series with inspiration from paranoid 1970s spy movies and Cold War films. Both are excellent at what they are trying to accomplish.
  16. Filoni and Faveru understand the difference between animation and live action and have even talked about it in interviews. Filoni talks about how animation is a "heightened version" of "reality" in the SW universes which is why you see the characters (especially Jedi) doing things in the animated series that they wouldn't do in live action. So yeah, Hondo can come off a little "cartoony" in Clone Wars, but I'm betting they would dial that back and still make him a cool character in live action.
  17. It wasn't so much about being "busts" as the fact that there are finite starting positions. I get the idea of 4- or 5-star guys being "busts" if they go to places where they are supposed to be the most talented and they don't pan out... like when OSU snags the random 4-star guy every once in a while... but if you're a 4- or 5-star guy at, say, Alabama, and you aren't starting because there's some other 5-star future NFL star in front of you, are you really a "bust" or is there just someone way better in front of you? Someone like that may be better off transferring to a next-tier down program that's still good but maybe not a blood so they can play instead of being stuck behind some future NFL all-pro. But your overall point actually sort of supports what I'm saying. So far, it seems (with a few exceptions) the portal has largely been about QBs moving around so they can play and then just a smattering of other transfers based on who-knows-what reasons. We haven't seen wide-spread issues with blue bloods poaching players developed at other programs. The exception is probably Lincoln Riley at USC, who has had no problem doing that.
  18. I'd bet money that he's coming. Nearly all of the most popular Filoni characters from Clone Wars/Rebels have either already been seen in live action or are known to be coming: Ashoka - already seen in live action Cad Bane - already seen in live action Phoenix crew - we know Sabine is coming for sure; likely Ezra too with the Thrawn storyline; Hera and Zeb also maybe? Hondo is almost certainly going to join that group in live action at some point. Would bet money on Rex showing up also.
  19. This is exactly what has, and will continue, to happen. People who get all worked up about NIL and the Transfer portal still have to deal with the fact that there are finite roster spots and (more importantly) finite starting positions at blue bloods. It’s not like Alabama can have a roster of 200 5-star guys. I think the player mobility via the transfer portal actually helps spread out the talent more. Yeah sure some blue bloods will poach low-star guys who become studs, but there are also tons of 4- and 5-star guys on the bench who will want to play and will get their chance at a “lower tier” school.
  20. Oh man looks like they are hitting the Jones Assembly in OKC instead of Cain's this time. Bummer. (Although Jones Assembly is a cool venue - I saw Old 97's there a few years ago) Yeah they played at Cain's on their last tour - weren't you originally planning on going to that show?
  21. Gonna put this in spoilers since the show only came out yesterday, but had a question for the group:
  22. LOL same. ”Oooh it’s a big pretty white plane with red stripes…with curtains in the windows and wheels…. it looks like a big Tylenol!”
