  1. T-shirt sleeve repurposed into a normal sized shirt.
  2. Trying to blackmail Ole Miss into letting him coach the playoffs via threatening to poach as many players and staff immediately was a pretty shitty move. There's been no pushback from Lane regarding those threats, including telling the other coaches to get with him on the plane to BR this afternoon or they won't have a job. This of course also requires that you give him the benefit of the doubt that he didn't make his decision until today (I call bullshit here) as well as his desire to coach Ole Miss in the playoffs is due to his loyalty to the players and not for his own ego (I call bullshit here as well if that's going to be his claim).
  3. Hold on, so you're telling me you'll have people spying on me all the time and keeping tabs on everything I do, but failure results in paying me millions to do nothing instead of defenestration/a firing squad? Where do I sign?
  4. Middle ground. They drop them from 7 to 9-10 and give ND/OU/Bama a home game in the 1st round. FSU was already arguably the last team in, so the committee had fewer options.
  5. We keep hearing how complete morons like Miles and Orgeron won national titles at LSU so it'll be easy to keep pulling top recruits and win for someone like Kiffin. Of course, none of these arguments ever acknowledge all of this was done pre-NIL.
  6. Nono, if Ole Miss lets him stay through the playoffs, he won't actively try to pull players and other coaching staff with him to LSU. Sure, they might choose to follow him out of loyalty and adoration, but that's completely different from coaching. /sarcasm
  7. Sweatergod if this dumpster fire version of Florida becomes to Sark what Maryland was to Herman...
  8. Can't wait till the rage filled arguments 5 years from now when a 4-loss Texas/Bama/tOSU gets left out because of a marquee non-conference loss. "The SEC and Big-10 need to break away and form their own league if the NCAA doesn't expand to 24 teams or get their shit together! Biggest travesty in the history of the world!!!"
  9. Dumb question amnesty, what exactly is expected when the committee says you "won't be punished" for scheduling a tough OOC game that results in a loss? It seems like people are asking to completely disregard the loss and treat it as if Texas only has two losses, and then compare them against other 2-loss teams, in some cases where they have H2H result. Asking to go that route seems like an unrealistic expectation.
  10. Would have been icing on the cake if one of the Baltimore players got injured in the last minute of game time. Just kneel if you're going to run straight up the middle while down 18.
  11. House just needs a simply majority, right? Are the House Republicans stupid enough insist on the RIF and refuse to even hold a vote on healthcare when there's a 0% chance of it passing?
  12. The truly sad thing is that there's decent odds some of the Dems actually had that plan. Shutdown just long enough to see if they can win some off-year elections, then immediately fold and assume the swing voters will continue blaming the Republicans.
  13. LSU just needs to cut out the middle man and name Governor Boucher head coach with a White House staff member TBD as special assistant to the head coach.
  14. Judge tells Trump his administration needs to fully payout November SNAP. Trump appeals to 1st Circuit Court. 1st Curcuit Court declines to intervene, or do anything at all, today. Trump appeals to Supreme Court. Jackson puts a 48-hour stay on initial ruling, pending a decision from the 1st Circuit Court. Now we wait for the inevitable outcome of the 1st Circuit Court shrugging its shoulders for the next 48 hours and we're back here again by the end of the weekend.
  15. Probably more like University of Florida fans right now. Could your school screw up the coaching hire again? Absolutely. But if the alternative was keeping Sunbelt Billy around for another 1.5 seasons, you're thrilled.
  16. I'd just like to take this time to point out that outside of college football fans, current students of the University of Texas and Vanderbilt, and the alumni of those schools, the vast majority of the United States is unaware that Arch played very well this Saturday. Just saying.
  17. Let's assume the original premise was correct. The only people that were aware of any of these elections were the people of those states and a very small minority online. What would we need to be "politically honest" about? The NYC mayoral election holds less weight? California being able to re-district for the upcoming 2028 election is no longer a valid win for the democrats? Sounds like someone trying to act like they're playing 5D chess and the rest of us are too stupid to realize it.
  18. So did the Blue Jays in all likelihood. Asking for anything more than a split from Yesavage and Gausman wasn't realistic. They also have proof of concept that they can hit the Dodgers bullpen. Asking to get 1 of 3 in LA is also reasonable. See if they can get it back to Toronto and hope for some real luck.
  19. Best case for the Warriors regarding Steph returning is maybe game 5 at the earliest?
  20. Jimmy Butler school of dark arts. The role players on his teams seem to overperform at a significantly higher clip than expected in the playoffs.
  21. Browns needed a backup in case Dillon Gabriel gets hurt.
  22. And no one but the guy cutting the checks (might) care. Ever since LeBron went to Miami (at least for me), the point has been hammered home tome and again that if you can be counted on to show up for the playoffs, I really don't give a shit unless your team doesn't make it. Regular season record usually doesn't matter much when the top players actually show up for all the games.
  23. Ant and others still have plenty of time to become "serious people" to go along with the insane talent. KAT on the other hand is unlikely to change, but that's the Knicks problem now.
  24. Butler has more ft attempts than the entire Memphis team.
  25. While I absolutely disagree with this logic, I see why you might look at it that way, and it's largely a non-issue, because California (and about 40 other states). That said, you also had another post where you also raised the reluctance to support Kamala because you felt she didn't do enough to win, and because you didn't think rural America would vote for her. Those types of things seem better suited any discussion prior to her actually getting the democratic nomination. Once that happened, I don't see how reluctance to vote for her because of those issues matter any more. Your choices at that point were vote Harris, vote Trump, don't vote, and I guess vote green party or something.
