  2. You still pissed about that touchdown from '85? 1:23:30 mark. He was a fast motherfucker. But Gata won the day.
  3. Deion knows exactly what he's doing. Talked a lot of shit after a single win and laid the groundwork to avoid criticism after future losses. If you question what he's doing its because you're threatened by a black man. His words. That will scare away a lot from critiquing him.
  4. This is why the numbers “work” for SMU. This was their only and last shot to get in a P5. The Big 12 won’t take them. Nor will the SEC or Big 10. The PAC 12 was going to take them but blew up. That left the ACC who needed some schools to add revenue. SMU is giving up 9 years of revenue, not just 7. But they were only making like $7 million a year in the American. And that was a deal made when decent programs like Cincinnati, Houston and UCF were members. Go look at the current lineup of teams in the American. Real bad. They replaced those three with UAB, Charlotte, FAU, North Texas, Rice and UTSA. The next negotiations were going to be ugly. The deal with the ACC is they forgo TV revenue but still get their share of playoff, bowl and NCAAT revenue. Which will get close to that $7 million they are leaving behind. Not to mention, tickets sales will be better in all sports based on decent opponents as opposed to the current slate. Some fans may scoff at an ACC schedule being exciting, but - not even mentioning Clemson and FSU - Miami, Pitt, NCST and Louisville, VaTech, etc are a hell of a lot more interesting games to attend than SMU's current home conference slate of North Texas, Navy, Tulsa, and Charlotte. Try selling that to a DFW family looking for something to do on a Saturday. And the boosters have supposedly raised north of $200 million to help SMU weather the 9 years. So, they had one shot to make P5 and they essentially “bought” their way into it. And while we all believe the whole system may blow up in the next 9 tears, when it does, they are least heading into that stage as a P5 team, not a G5.
  5. Acuna attacked by fans at Coors Field https://x.com/mullinaxwx/status/1696354153298350413?s=46&t=zLVklhjdEBslZdNo5CDuDw https://x.com/noahspirek/status/1696354543087350009?s=46&t=zLVklhjdEBslZdNo5CDuDw
  6. So this thing stars Ed Skrein and Michael Huisman, who both played Daario Naharis in GOT.
  7. This will be Ohtani's second TJ surgery won't it? Totally different animal.

    Why are there separate divisions in chess to begin with?
  9. But he knows Dick Bigger, Jr. And just imagine the street cred Dick Bigger, Sr. has.
  10. TCU wants to be the only P5 option in DFW. They have kept SMU out of any Big 12 conversations and want SMU to become (more) irrelevant. This is just another example. SMU beat TCU in 2019 and 2021, and the 2020 game was one of the biggest puss outs in history. Covid year, supposed to play in Dallas. Because of Covid and Big 12 rules, TCU could only play home games. SMU offered to give up the home game and play in Ft. Worth. TCU declined and replaced SMU with Tennessee Tech.
  11. Do tweets not embed anymore? Anyway, it was a motorcycle accident https://x.com/andyslater/status/1691260153109102593?s=46&t=zLVklhjdEBslZdNo5CDuDw
  12. Lahaina is always a pretty dry area and this is dry season. If it "poured rain every day" there, that is what's weird. They average about 10 inches per year and like 8 rain days a month. https://www.weather-us.com/en/hawaii-usa/lahaina-weather-november
  13. Most of their royalties come from night clubs.
  14. They failed because their music sucked, not because they did a bad job imitating Vedder/Cobain's voices.
