  1. I can think of a few reasons the Pac might want to add Big 12 teams. 1. They can't even get Directv to carry their network as things are now. It's not a very forward-thinking reason, but it's a reason. 2. There is a lot of uncertainty as to how the 12 team playoff will work, and dissolving the Big 12 eliminates any chance that the Big 12 gets an auto-bid. Makes it a lot more likely for the Pac to get multiple schools into the playoff. 3. The smaller schools in the Pac are probably leery of losing a few big programs to the Big 10 and might want to pre-emptively expand. I don't think they will add anyone, though.
  2. I'm not sure if any of these schools actually have any options. Maybe the ACC wants West Virginia. I don't really know anything about them. Kansas? They have a top tier basketball program, but so did UConn. The only investment Kansas has made in football since the big conference realignment windfall they got in revenue money is the removal of the track. They might end up somewhere, but it's hard to argue they deserve to. Kansas State is at least trying with facilities, but they don't have viewers. Texas Tech has fewer viewers than Kansas State. Oklahoma State has the best odds of finding a life raft, in my opinion. I'm just not sure how much a major conference would covet the second best program in Oklahoma.
  3. It's because nobody likes OU. They have been shitheads since the dawn of time, so OU leaving you to die is expected behavior.
  4. Maybe I am just stupid, but I think this movie looks like it's going to be the best film of 2021.
  5. I view a conviction of manslaughter as walking in this case. He committed 1st degree murder on camera.
  6. I wouldn't expect Abbott to just stand up and let him take it.
  7. The interesting thing about that map is that the eastern 1/3 of Colorado is basically indistinguishable from Kansas. I would bet their obesity rate is closer to 10% if you only look at the mountain part.
  8. The IRS should do your taxes for you without itemized deductions, and then send you a statement allowing you to itemize and do your own taxes if you wish to do so. That is the reform that is needed most.
  9. I think Don Jr's outrage is understandable. Even if we haven't heard of these books, they are 6 books that he's capable of reading, which constitutes a substantial portion of books that fit into that category.
  10. Sure, but if everyone else got the vaccine, you should be fine to come into work. If half of the office has some sort of religious exemption, then god will sort them out as their religion dictates he should.
  11. I think your job would be taking reasonable enough actions to keep you safe by mandating the vaccine.
  12. Comedians are overly sensitive to the cancel culture thing because their careers depend on the ability to offend people. Dr. Seuss is a very poor example because Dr. Seuss Enterprises asked for the books to stop being published. It's like if Cardi B's kids 50 years from now were to get together and ask if the radio would please stop playing WAP because it makes them feel uncomfortable.
  13. I would say very very hard. Hell I know I would go live in a van in NYC and get that cost of living basis then come back to cheaper place in Texas lol I don't think the NY minimum wage would be enough for you to afford to park your van.
  14. Not only that, but it also should reduce the government's burden on subsidizing low earners with food stamps, EITC, etc. It's a reduction in the socialism the conservatives claim to oppose.
  15. Seems pretty tame compared to your typical cpac speaker.
  16. I actually like it. It's funnier that I believed him capable of being.
  17. This is just factually wrong. Ted Cruz doesn't have friends. They must have been parents of his kids' friends or something.
  18. I think they just plan on cutting $10k checks and kicking the can down the road.
  19. Rush couldn't support his beliefs in an argument the way that Stewart can because he never really held those or any beliefs. He has only ever played devil's advocate to the democrats. He was smart enough to not debate liberals because it's much easier to win an argument with a straw man. It's the model of the modern republican. It's also very effective with stupid people.
  20. Do we really want presidents to start authorizing expenditures like that by EO? I get that congress isn't functional, but they don't even need a single republican vote to go through the proper process and get $10k debt relief passed.
  21. I just can't help but feel sad for all the good, decent people in hell who now have to listen to Rush's bullshit for the rest of eternity. Life is not fair, and death isn't either.
  22. Eh. They are just coasters. That's all the compensation the poor guy is going to get.
