  1. You guys seriously owe it to yourselves to listen to the blackout drunk AMA. A couple of quick highlights to make you believe (the laughter is the Knowledge Fight hosts). THIS IS AT LIKE 4 IN THE AFTERNOON. https://vocaroo.com/i/s0VjTBfj6zdR https://vocaroo.com/i/s08WOC94zDP9 https://vocaroo.com/i/s0isyCCRy0dN
  2. 100% essential listening for this thread: the Knowledge Fight breakdown of Alex’s inebriated on-air breakdown during an attempted Reddit AMA this month, featuring the terrific Robert Evans from Behind the Bastards. He is really falling apart, and it really couldn’t be happening to a nicer guy. Eye-popping and brutally hilarious. Must be heard to be believed. https://knowledgefight.libsyn.com/knowledge-fight-ask-alex-anything
  3. If it worked like that, McConnell wouldn’t be where he is in the first place.
  4. Hey Swam, remind me what exactly the Dems have done to try and “overthrow” Trump. Is looking into whether the president did something wrong an attempted coup now? Was the Whitewater/Lewinsky investigation an attempt to overthrow the duly elected US president? Spygate? The Benghazi investigation? Also lol at the idea that Trump wouldn’t go around calling for the abolition of the electoral college if it led to a result that didn’t suit him. He already has.
  5. So much love for Heard and Swoopes, two guys who never showed any ego or wavered in their commitment to being Longhorns. Neither one of them got to have the career they had surely hoped for here, but both showed up and did whatever was asked of them to the best of their ability for as long as they were allowed to. The coach they committed to got fired. They were thrown in the deep end, then got passed up. They went through losing seasons, staff shuffles and reshuffles, scheme changes, all of it. And all they did was whatever they could to try and help us win football games. Hook’em.
  6. I would’ve thought he was a good fit for Herman’s system too, and I would’ve liked to see what he could do, but maybe Heard didn’t want to make the switch. Greg Ward and Braxton Miller play(ed) WR in the pros. To make it to the league as a QB was an extreme longshot for Heard. Maybe he decided that rather than joining the QB competition and trying to beat out Sam and Shane for snaps he’d be better off trying to get more experience and film as a receiver.
  7. Maybe they take the WH and expand their lead in the house (maybe). Winning the senate in 2020 is going to take a series of miracles, and I don't think 60 votes in the senate is even on the table.
  8. There's going to be a lot of information that should be damaging. We already know a ton of information that should be damaging to Trump. I'm highly skeptical that there will be anything in there so damaging that it actually moves the needle for people who are still supporting Trump at this point. I frankly don't know what that even could be.
  9. Yeah, exactly. Someone who is actually convinced of their own excellence doesn't feel the need to lash out at every perceived slight or constantly make wildly exaggerated/fabricated claims about their own accomplishments.
  10. Oh, he can perceive his flaws, or at least some very real part of him can. He's so deeply, obviously insecure.
  11. The fuck you say?
  12. I'm sure there are shady muscle supplements that contain banned steroids and don't say so, just like how pharmaceuticals that aren't supposed to be sold OTC have been found in shady gas station boner pills. But everyone's going to try that excuse when they get caught, so who's to say? And just because a guy is wiry and not bulked out doesn't mean they couldn't be using steroids. Especially in the combat/contact sports, I think a lot of people use them to recover faster from injuries, not because they're trying to get 36-inch thighs.
  13. I said “semi-respectable.” But seriously, even if they could have both I really think there’d be a major opposition from current students and faculty. TexAgs would be all about it but they’re mostly olds and they whine all the time about how The Libs have taken over the school.
  14. It’s going to be at Liberty, isn’t it? I think any semi-respectable university would face a full-on revolt from students and faculty if they were to accept a Trump library.
  15. Did they stop sending her out to face the press corps altogether? I feel like I haven’t seen a clip of that in weeks, possibly months.
  16. Jacob Wohl is that stupid. He’s the wannabe right wing grifter who announced he had an unnamed lady who was ready to go public about being sexually assaulted by Robet Mueller, then called a press conference where he came out and said she decided not to come but tried to forge ahead anyway. Also the youngest person ever to receive a lifetime ban from ever working in the finance industry. Also notorious for claiming on twitter to hang out in “hipster coffee shops” where he overhears liberals talking about how they all know Trump is actually awesome and right about everything. E: After writing this out and remembering he is a grifter at the core, he may be deliberately doing stuff that only the most gullible people on earth could get behind, because once he amasses a following of those people he can’t fail at conning them.
  17. Well I did say more than two scores, so 14-0 I'm still watching, albeit with a sense of increasing existential ennui.
  18. I'll watch in hopes of seeing two very good college teams play a closely matched game, my last chance to do so before the long, dark offseason. But if Alabama goes up more than two scores I'll probably tune out.
  19. In a world where Texas and Aggy met for the first time since the divorce in a game with massive national title implications, it’d be such a bummer to have it played at Jerryworld. People would be amped up, but it’d be hard not to think about how the atmosphere would be 10x better if it was played at DKR or Kyle.
  20. No, CFB is still making money hand over fist. People are just bored by the prospect of the preseason #1 and #2 playing in the Inevitabowl. There’s nobody to root for, no outcome that sounds exciting.
  21. If back means back to where we were during most of Mack’s long streak then fuck yeah we are. This season at least. Before the season I thought we’d be like 6-6 this year. After Maryland and Tulsa I thought we’d be looking at like 3-5 wins. I am blown the fuck away. What a treat this season was.
  22. If only more B12 teams would insist on pounding it between the tackles over and over without posing a vertical passing threat we would absolutely do this physical run defense thing all the time. They don’t, though.
