  1. the Fox news pinata 

    well Geraldo, that is what you are. glad you spoke up. 

    hope you can speak up more often around the misery that Fox news preaches on any number of issues it chooses, as it further divides this nation.

    Shut the hell up you ignorant troll.  Trying to make some bizarre connection to the atrocities of WWII and the Nazi regime to firing tear gas at people trying to break thru a border station is disgustingly insulting to the people who lived and died as a result of that horrendous period of time.  You obviously know jack fucking shit about it.  

    The people working those crossing are people who have families, and shooting canisters of an eye irritant in the vicinity of people rushing  a closed border crossing is a pretty low level act given what could have occurred if actual physical contact between armed guards and people attacking them had taken place

    nah man. its ok. it can be same same, and still different. 

    i tend to agree that you never go full nazi

    however the sentiment is of course spot on. trying speaking to that. thats the fucking point man. you are going full American here IMO. you can't connect the current current with the final outcomes others experienced at a different time. auschwitter is trying to help you get that. 

    here is a good song from a great album

    Again, nevermind the politics of it - I remain most pissed off about the utter cruelty of him casually giving what any sane person knew was FALSE hope to factory workers in Ohio, coal minders in West Virginia, etc.  "We're gonna make buggy whip manufacturing great again!"  No.  No you're not.  It's not up to you.  The laws of economics prevail, and those laws have dictated this trend for decades.  Magic words from an orange man aren't going to change that.  But desperate people have hope -- they WANT these things to be true, to they buy the line of bullshit.  He's a con-man who sold a snake oil treatment to a critically ill patient who, in desperation, will try anything.  And that patient is drinking the snake oil INSTEAD of undergoing the therapy that MIGHT save them - don't stay put and wait for your 1955 job to come back.  Move to where the 2018 jobs are/learn how to do a 2018 job. 

    Preying on the desperation of those people, not giving a rat's ass about how they are only going to get MORE fucked as time goes by -- that's just fucking cruel.  And unforgivable.  He's an evil fucker.

    Well said, as per usual.

    Trump is the soulless asshole taking the hopeless for their last ride. It is that evil. 

  4. dude got murdered on that play. i thought he was deads. his legs were flopping and everything.

    what were you thinking!? in a game against KU i would just play it safe and fair catch everything.

    also - with all the concerns for player safety i find it odd that punt returns aren't getting more attention. we had a fake fair catch earlier this year (forgot which team) and in general the fair catch concept and how its officiated is very loose. seems odd.

    Russia's gonna march into Ukraine, do whatever the fuck they want, claim that 1) Ukraine started it, and they are only protecting their sovereignty, and 2) we aren't even there, those are guys on vacation, and war is their hobby, and 3) Trump will do nothing.  Absolutely nothing.  Because as dumb as he is, he has always clearly understood one thing: once you are bought, you goddamn better STAY bought.

    Message sent and received: Europe, you are on your own.  The US is more of a hindrance than a help, you shouldn't waste any more time dealing with them.

    pretty much this. 

    you know this makes me think of the chat with my family in Cyprus this last summer. they were scared shitless - Turkey, Russia, all this shit going on. They are a permanent chess piece.  A pawn of course. Always. and they don't have anything of value there at all. But in my old age I realize so much more clearly that image and politics make man act, sometimes far more than actual value and resources. 

    The Ukraine, Georgia, the Baltics - permanent fucking chest pieces. I don't know how they get out of it. Limited resources and always getting clawed at by the Bear. 

    its a stress we Americans don't get. Talking to my uncle and aunt over lunch one day and hearing them speak about this was eye-opening.  I mean a fear you can't relate to. Its like a mixture of resignation and death, with a smidgen of inevitability. Its unemotional and just with them.

    This is very troubling. We need Sam to be accurate. It was clear that wasn’t an option with his shoulder bothering him versus Kansas

    i am still a bit befuddled we didn't rest him at Kansas. A healthy Shane and a gameplan on his strengths with some LJH or Heard wilcatting in there i think could have gotten us 24 fucking points.

    If Brandon Jones can’t go, I have confidence in Chris Brown. He surprised me with his few snaps this season. He’s violent and knows where to be. 

    i would also like to see Brown in (if Jones isn't).

    this would keep 25 close to the line. he and 33 are both needed to contain the midget. 

    man i hope we have 19 and 33 healthy. so important for stopping these fucks

    I had a case of salmonella after eating some bad seafood. Spewing simultaneously from both ends so bad I literally crawled into the tub, turned on the shower and waited to die. I repented for stuff I never did and I'm not religious.

    damn dude, thats sounds shitty

  9. any updates on 19? WTF was he thinking fielding that punt? i am thinking he doesn't play and probably doesn't even play school this week as his brains is destroyed. 

    he is vital. i mean vital. that gets 25 up to the line matching athleticism with the midget. 25 and 33 are the two guys that can spy and tackle that little shit. 

     

  10. didn't get to watch the aggy game last night. jesus. 

    did watch horns KU first half and felt the calls there were terrible (And all pro-Texas). 

    expecting a beating against the Sooners next weekend

    Fixed? its something. been that way for some years. someone will retire and write a book soon hopefully. :( it does make me give two less shits thats for sure. OSU 3 years back put me down.

    Tucker Carlson is such a pussy.  I have seen so many clips with interviews where if he is the least bit challenged, he goes to histrionics.  He then belittles and yells louder than his guest to get his point across and never allows his counterpart to get theirs across.  He's a terrible interviewer and host.

    always worth a watch now and then.

     

  12. i wood:

    - get a wilcat with heard. practice the shit out of it. both big WRs out spread wide for it. two runs and two passes. use this to change up the game, especially when shane struggles

    - give shane the start. run more ZR. tell shane he keeps 3 or 4 times max when we need like 3 or 4 yards for a first. he can run, just don't call QB leads. 

    - more WR screens. 

    - more RB screens

    - and for the love of god teach shane to throw the back shoulder deep ball and not just the fade. 

    if we are tied or losing at half, toss in Sam second half. 

    on defense stop the run and shit.

    Yes she is.

    And that's such a tired argument from Cardillo.  Yes, God forbid if people in farming states where hardly anyone lives weren't able to hold the majority of the country politically hostage with their electoral over-representation.

    the EC is just terrible. some guy in wyoming has 52X more voting power than me. how this is still happening is crazy. 

    great Radio Lab on ranked voting earlier this month. something else interesting to discuss (in terms of changing shit in our retarded political system)
