  1. Anyone have a count of how many times he's played the 'Millions of migrant criminals' card?
  2. Holy shit. This is one of the most entertaining things I've ever seen.
  3. Kinda what I thought too, but I haven't seen as many of our sets this year as y'all have. I thought Carlson's set location was supposed to be her strength, and that was supposed to be why there's a setting competition right now in the first place, but so far I haven't seen that consistency materialize. She obviously puts up a weaker block than Ella. Add that to the inexperienced middles, and it gets ugly in a hurry. I don't see that she's bringing enough with her setting to offset that, and like you said, Ella already has chemistry with Madi and others. Also, I'm not sure why my fingers spelled it 'Maddy' instead of 'Madi' earlier. That is not what I told them to do.
  4. So, Aston Martin news conference tomorrow ...
  5. Yep. Let's not start sucking Matt Rhule's dick just yet for doing exactly what any decent team should have done. Is Nebraska decent now? Maybe. Maybe even good, but it was Colorado, in Lincoln. Time will tell how good Nebraska really is. My guess is that in time - like I said about ND after they beat aggy - we'll probably find out that Nebraska isn't very good either.
  6. They should have played Shedeur's song after the Pick 6.
  7. Yeah I did the same thing at first. It's crazy that it doesn't come up when you just enter 'victory'.
  8. LOL, looks just like Deion.
  9. I dunno ... as long as Jerruh is around, and probably a few others, there's always someone stupid enough to gleefully overspend on locker room killing players like the Sanders boys.
  10. As a huge F1 and MLB fan, I'm not arguing with you, for sure, but they're all very difficult to do at a high level. I think maybe they're the 3 toughest things in sports.
  11. I was there ...
  12. Which way is she missing? In/out/up/down/off/tight, or just all over the place? I thought she seemed to be setting Madi too tight fairly regularly vs Minny. And yeah, I've been saying since last year that Jenna should only play back row when absolutely necessary.
  13. So, by set, who was setting the most? Particularly those last 3 sets? I didn't see the match yet. For me the bottom line is who the setter is when we're losing and who the setter is when we're winning. Full disclosure, I'm Team Ella too.
  14. Yeah I remember it being mostly if not entirely rumor derived from interpreting the technical directive about it. The theory was that they had some kind of illegal device that skirted the rules and the FIA quietly told them to cut it out, and then later issued a rule clarification that also said several teams were working on similar concepts. The bottom line is that the teams were skirting the rules and the test to get their wing to stall at speed and allow them to run higher downforce as a consequence, while still passing the deflection test. Been done repeatedly over the years, resulting in rule clarifications walking them back. Until now. They're still skirting the rules and the test now - designing the wing in such a way that it passes the test but still breaks the rule, twisting and dropping at speed, stalling the wing. But now it's ok.
  15. Travis Hunter is a big-time player, but without him and Sanders, this CU team has nada. I'm not sure Sanders is all that good anyway, and Hunter will probably get hurt.
  16. I never heard anything like that, rather just that their wing was flexing downward toward the ends. Either way, it's illegal, just as this is. But now it's ok.
  17. Yeah just like most of us thought after the aggy-Domer game, ND isn't any good either. So much for aggy's 'best loss' lmao.
  18. Looks like many people have been looking at the flexing in terms of how much the end of the wing drops, but that might have been the wrong thing to look at. Looks to me like the wings are twisting rather than just drooping ... allowing them to run higher downforce than normal while stalling the wing at speed on the straights. Aston Martin got smacked down last year for basically the same thing. Apparently it's ok now though. I wonder what changed?
  19. Yeah ... KSU 'held on' with a lot of fucking help from the zebras. Tulane got fuuuuucked. Were those Rig 12 refs? They called back the TD on a bs OPI call, then on the next play they looked the other way on an obvious DPI in the end zone.
  20. Where are they from?
  21. Yeah, that's exactly what I thought. Never saw it during the play.
  22. Uh, yeah. Bizarre. That was textbook afaik.
  23. I already got it from the app store on my Android and on Chromecast.
  24. Hermosa. Mmmmmm ....
