  1. You'll get no argument from me. I'm somebody who spent nearly 10 years of my professional life in that realm, albeit on the sports side. All the Presidents' Men is probably in my top three favorite movies of all time. Bezos and other similar wide-ranging corporations owning news organizations is problematic to say the least.
  2. Klatt is hands-down the BEST college football analyst in the country. And, yep, this is what most of us are saying WRT to Quinn and the Texas offense. BO&W takes it to another level that I'm not completely comfortable with but he's not wrong in a a lot of what he says. (I definitely stop well short of calling the dude a pussy.) I hope Klatt is right and that Ewers is working a short leash Saturday. I hope he plays terrific against Clemson and we win convincingly. I hope it continues through the next three rounds and he's drafted in the 1st round. My only ask if he simply can't get it done that Sark will go to Plan B before it's too late.
  3. Not sure if he's talking about the near-pick on the Helm throw or the god-awful miss to Bond on the play before, which was far more egregious IMO. On the Helm throw, he just didn't see the defender sitting underneath the throw. I'd like my third-year starter to not make mistakes like that but I know shit happens even to the best of them. The clip immediately prior, where he flat-out couldn't throw a catchable ball to Bond, who'd criss-crossed the defender into falling down and could've walked 65 yards to the endzone was a horrible miss by Ewers. You've got to have those 10 times out of 10.
  4. Maybe ABC's decision makes sense from a "business" standpoint -- it unfortunately sets a very dangerous precedent. This will only embolden this piece of shit -- and others in his orbit -- to make further attacks at what is left of America's "free" press.
  5. And wasting months and months going after Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
  6. Closest I could find. https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/18/politics/matt-gaetz-ethics-report-committee/index.html
  7. Ha. Tell the assholes to quit cutting the data lines in my neighborhood in order to steal copper, then I'll think about dropping my DirecTV. It's happened at least four times in the past six months, twice in two weeks at one point. If we didn't have some AT&T big-wig across the street our outage would've likely been multiple days each time rather than less than 24 hours. (I was about to make the switch to YouTube TV last Xmas and called DTV and they gave me a ridiculous deal to stay so I did. Reminds me I need to call them back to see if I can extend or if it's time to rattle the chains a little bit again. I won't mention the copper thieves.)
  8. There's an older pic of him with presumably his dad and a friend (or sibling) in the stands at aggy game 10 years ago. He apparently went to South Carolina, is wearing a Baylor golf shirt in his profile pic and also sports an Auburn sweatshirt in another picture. (Wife appears to be an Auburn grad. Whether the couple is into pegging or not is not readily apparent in their FB profiles.)
  9. In reversal, key House panel votes to release Matt Gaetz ethics report https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/18/politics/matt-gaetz-ethics-report-committee/index.html
  10. Rudy: “We let China rape us with the balloon.” https://www.threads.net/@ronaldfilipkowski/post/DDsf6X5Ssy9?xmt=AQGzrbOaaHlHsJ8EmMRR8SfV9NpnbD2BFqw5zLvI13NUoA
  11. Correction -- they've now corrected the record to say it was a 2nd grade teacher who called 911, not a second grader. At-the-moment journalism is fucking laughable at times.
  12. Brian Krassenstein had a pretty good Twatter post last night or night before last talking about this mysterious glowing circle that's been showing up over his house the last several days. (He was videoing the moon.)
  13. Unless, I'm looking at something completely different that was a piece of debris that was blown in that direction.
  14. Nancy Mace tells Clay Travis it’s aliens or Russia/Iran/China looking for a nuclear weapon. Knowing Nancy, maybe it’s a snuke. EDIT: guess the link helps: https://www.threads.net/@ronaldfilipkowski/post/DDrj-x4xWus?xmt=AQGzKoe275Dk1oYFZIjl9DEBOk2nJMzdTRU3KxbqlC_3qw
  15. The drones are making people in NJ sick. (Forreals.) https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-14198585/new-jersey-drones-resident-mystery-health-symptoms.html
  16. Memecoins like Fartcoin are riding Trump's victory to huge valuations. Experts say it may have only begun. https://www.nbcnews.com/business/personal-finance/memecoins-what-are-they-why-are-they-popular-cryptocurrency-rcna184223
  17. Reports are that it was a 2nd grader who called 911 to report that someone was shooting at school
  18. Buddy of mine sent me this. Said it was flying over my house near Love Field. Me: “Where is that? Buddy: “Zoom in.” Made me laugh.
  19. Madison school shooter allegedly a girl
  20. Five dead, five wounded
