  1. They also removed statues of people who had large association with Texas (Albert Sidney Johnston - general United States Army, Texian Army, and the Confederate States Army and John Reagan - US House of Representatives from Texas, U.S. Senator from Texas) and people who had nothing to do with the Confederacy (Woodrow Wilson - I count US president as association with UT or Texas; otherwise watch out George Washington).
  2. Will be interesting to see how many athletes chose to sing vs leave.
  3. Still can't figure out how Chance Mock is perfect against KSU, but Colt McCoy is winless.
  4. How is Redwolves excellent? Sounds rather generic.

  6. Re: Reggie's Claim If false, VY is a bad ass. If true, VY is an even bigger bad ass.
  7. Back to Florida, am I reading it correctly that UF fans really started doing the gator bait thing in the mid 1990s? Lawrence Wright, who popularized the phrase, "If you ain't a Gator, ya Gator bait, baby," after saying it following a win over Florida State in 1995, told The Gainesville Sun he was upset with the decision to remove the cheer and wants to talk to Fuchs. "I'm not going for it," the former safety told the Sun. "I created something for us. It's a college football thing. It's not a racist thing, It's about us, the Gator Nation. And I'm black. What about our history as the Gator Nation? We took a program from the top five to No. 1 in the country. I think I've done enough, put in the sweat and tears, to get to offer my opinion about something like this."
  8. The team is probably thrilled to be currently dominating the AL West. Why trade that in?
  9. Is this the team that has an undisputed 2017 World Series championship per the governing authority on the sport, MLB itself, or does something like darts also have an NL and AL?
  10. COVID-19 is no reason to reschedule a wedding to during football season.
  11. Do you lose positioning in the next draft for firing a minority coach or GM?
  12. Looks just like his NFL days, or CFL.
  13. That is one empty hall. Wow.

    RIP Don Shula

    True, but let us not forget that Shula can coach a backup QB to an undefeated season + Super Bowl.
  15. https://www.si.com/college/2020/05/05/ncaa-football-video-game-return-group-licensing "... introducing restrictions on how players can profit from their name, image and likeness (NIL). Among the most notable, athletes cannot partner with schools for NIL ventures, use school or conference logos in such endeavors and are barred from entering group licensing deals. " WTF? Cannot partner with schools? Time for the NCAA to die.
  16. Marcus Tubbs - DT. I pick him because I saw the Hummer he bought after getting drafted but before playing in the NFL.

    RIP Don Shula

    RIP Coach. I'd take him over Lombardi. This is pretty impressive from Yahoo Sports:
  18. Yes, we all know. Nobody cares about the NBA regular season because 53% of teams make the playoffs. In fact, nobody really cares about the first round either. It shows that people only want about 8 playoff teams in a 30 team league.
  19. Thanks for putting the Astros back in the NL where they belong, but that's not likely to happen. They won their lone WS in the AL. They're stuck there for the long haul, but I'll go with it here. The biggest mistake you have is placing the Cards in the South (Mid-South sounds odd). They aren't separating from the Cubs. The NL North (odd to have an East, South, and West but no North) would be Cards, Cubs, Rockies, and Brewers. There really isn't a great option for team #4 in the NL South. It'd either be Cinny or Washington. Think I'd prefer the Nats to stay in division with the Braves. The AL South has the same 'who is team #4' problem. KC is far away from Nashville/NO and TB. Baltimore is the only other viable option, which places KC in the AL North and Cleveland in the AL East.
  20. I thought it was TV partners who liked the 7pm local start time as most people watch TV between 7/8pm - 10/11pm (that is, primetime).
  21. That's the part that surprised me the most. Luhnow said he didn't know. Suspended. O'Halloran said he didn't know. Not suspended. And this is the Red Sox's second offense in two years! I read the report to find out. It's got along with Not looking good for the bosses. Wait, what. I thought the players were employees?
  22. I read the 15 page report. The only useful part is how Watkins worked (pretty simple) and why it stopped for the 2018 post season and beyond (MLB sat in the replay room starting then). The remaining 14 pages are either a cover-up or joke. The most egregious reads as a 'why this isn't a big deal': Can you imagine if the Astros report said 'the information was only useful if the opposing team did not again change its sequence after the trash can bang passed along the information to players, and, only then, if the batter heard the bang before the pitch, understood the bang's meaning, and had time to swing.' The second worse is along with So where's the punishment for Cora or O'Halloran? Oh. I thought the players were employees?
  23. My kinda lady.
  24. Nobody's perfect, but 9-1 is pretty close. Must be embarrassing to have never beaten a conference opponent during the regular season.
  25. No thanks. Nice way to try to send coronavirus to a poster.
