  1. As an RB fan, was obviously hoping for Adrian to stay, but once it was clear he was out the door, I thought it would be great for him to end up at Williams. I'd love to see that team get back to the top for a bit. Sainz + Vowles + Newey might have really made things interesting. AM is screwed as long as Daddy lets it be junior's playground, IMO.
  2. That was pretty...
  3. Agreed on all points. I will make it there someday...
  4. Anyone know if the weight includes the tires? Any chance this was a consequence of them running the tires so long - like each tire lost .75lbs of rubber by the end of the race?
  5. Looked like the driver never even tried to counter-steer. Just rode that shit all the way into the barrier...
  6. So we are the great Destroyer of Conferences, and good 'ole ATM is the only school that can stop us. But...I feel like ATM was in the last 2 conferences that they claim we destroyed. So, either we didn't destroy those conferences...or, we did destroy them, and ATM just let us...? Thank God they're around to stop us this time...
  7. Similar. I've had a Recteq 700 for several years, and added a Bullseye a couple of years back. Gave away my cheap offset and my gas grill both. Happy smoking!
  8. One of the more interesting races of the year, for sure. As a Max fan and a Danny Ric fan, was good all around. As a Red Bull fan…wtf checo??? I thought the announced extension might take off some of the pressure and produce some improvement…. Sigh. as an F1 fan, good to see some real racing - not sure if mclaren and Mercedes have actually caught up, or if the last 3 races now have been special circumstances. Seems to be a trend now though.
  9. The fun just never ends. - how dare they talk up their rivalry....hey, why didn't our AD talk up our rivalry? - Everyone loves the Cocktail Party...how embarrassing, their AD looks like he came from a Cocktail Party. - Texas forced Sankey to force them into the SEC...wait, Texas has no power, ESPN forced all of this. - They're so arrogant, all they talk about is their "brand"...hey, don't forget everyone is just jealous of our <insert weird turdition> - We focus on becoming a program that competes for the playoff & the national championship...but also, let's point and laugh at the program actually, you know, doing those things - We're so masculine and they are not!!!! <Gazes longingly at dancing milkmen> (not judging) I know I missed some - it's just too hard to keep track...
  10. Thanks, CNN, for the insightful newsflash: decades-old MBTs, designed to destroy other MBTs in multi-domain conflicts, aren't the best at drone warfare. Next, at 10: 80yr-old grandmother struggles to use chatGPT!!!
  11. Boys and I have decided we're going to try to tackle this over the summer. I've watched this vid, and his follow-up on what he would do differently. Anything you'd do differently if you were doing it again, @BoomMF?
  12. As long as Ukraine wants to keep fighting, we should support them. The attemped violent overthrow of a democratic ally should always be opposed - I hate that this is even a matter of debate in this stupid simulation. My Euro roots are about as far west as you can get and still be in Europe, but I can imagine the...concern...that is happening in many countries there. Yes, we should have thrown in more support, more quickly. But, in the ugly world of geopolitics, bleeding Russia is considered a goal just as important as helping Ukraine. I don't like it, but we all know it's true. The US elections will certainly have an impact on continued support, but I'm not sure I agree that support will dry up even if Biden wins. According to that article, "well, since all wars end in negotiation", (duh!), "Ukraine should just negotiate now, regardless of their leverage or lack thereof". I guess my response to that would be: "Fuck you. That's Ukraine's decision." sorry for the word vomit.
  13. Right? It's like they've *almost* figured out how to enforce track limits...
  14. Knights Tale (mentioned already) Starship Troopers (also mentioned I think) The Replacements Big Trouble in Little China
  15. Yes, yes they do. BOMC out front should have told you.
  16. Maybe this was obvious to the rest of you, but I just saw that the announcement from the team claimed he would be stepping back to finish 'final development and delivery' of the RB17 hypercar. May be bullshit, but, if true, may be a way for RB to keep him "on contract" for a little longer, to prevent another team getting him?
  17. Not letting this drop down in the forum list. Fuck Russia!!
  18. A few thoughts... - I'd say Jos is 'predominantly' to blame for this. - I bet Max will start seriously looking around - Newey is a fucking magician, and Red Bull will take a big hit in '26, and some other team will take a big leap forward - I would love it if Newey went to Andretti!
  19. A phrase I heard long back: "What 2 things can drive anywhere? An M1 Abrams and a rental car."
  20. It's easy to forget that these are (arguably) the 20 best drivers in the world...well, 19 if you rightfully remove Stroll. Their reactions are often unbelievable, but that catch was just insane. I'm sure the data is there on the internet somewhere, but he was probably >100mph when it stepped out?
  21. Ok, I know this is a dumb question. And I know the answer is "because aggy"... But what exactly is it, that they believe we have done *to them*? Other than things in our own best interest, not specific to them, which all schools are (or should be) doing?
  22. Palmer has been on fire...starting to give me some hope!!
