    I know we'd all like to think these magnificent bastards are giving the hook 'em, but I wonder what it means to them.

    Has this been covered already?

    My understanding is that you are correct, it's not actually a hook em. Instead it's a deeper representation of the universal truth that ou sucks.

    Surely this will be the time that a real breakthrough will be made vis-à-vis Fatty <-> Surly relations. 

    Narrator: A real breakthrough was not made. I mean we surly-ites somehow delude themselves into thinking it might. But......it might work for DalTxHornFan

    What's changed between last season and this season? Except for losing a damn good player in Bijan? 

    I expect it's going to be a season that has been like every one of the past 10. We have games where we look like world beaters. We have games where we can't stop tripping over our own feet. We come out of it 8-4 or 9-3 and all argue over whether Sark is the answer or not.

     

    You'd be forgiven for not remembering much of the last 10 years but even going 8-4 only happened 3 fucking times in the last 10 years. 9-3 would be an oasis in the desert compared to the last 10 years. I know that it's super shitty but tells you why there is some optimism this season: even your take off 8-4 or 9-3 shows improvement, it's not just the last 10 years.

    You want me to go back and shame them too? Surly is a tough crowd but if you're not up to speed on 90s, or Lord help you, 80s tv and movies it can be a lot tougher. I don't make the rules 

    This board exists to chew bubblegum and cater to old white guys, and it's all out of bubblegum.

    Again, Woodward does not represent Trump.  He represents a bunch of low-level minions.

    You lawyers you and your legal terms like "represent" and "minion". Okay, point taken.

    The initial premise is that Stanley Woodward is not your usual Trump lawyer.

    And, he's damaging his credibility on his own behalf, and that of his clients, which do not include Donald J. Trump.

    Everyone knows that lawyers are generally aware of credibility and how that impacts clients. What my theory presuposes is that any lawyer who agrees to represent Trump has already made the decision that credibility is no longer a going concern.

    Woodward is also taking pretty indiscriminate shots at the government that are proving to be factually unfounded.  That should start to hurt his credibility at some point.

    Come on Twice, at least tell us to sit down first. I damn near broke my ass falling down at the mere possibility of a Trump lawyer hurting his credibility. Heaven forfend!

  8. Tom Cat gin is fun stuff. It's barrel aged, so a bit like a floral / herbal whiskey. Not an every day drink but I like it a change of pace to sip straight up. That drink does look like ass but it's not just a gin and juice.

    Has @Lidig8r explained what was so reprehensible about Southwest's conduct yet?

    No, not his factually incorrect summary of the ruling (while simultaneously holding himself above CR level of reasoning). He has been busy posting in multiple other threads, and in a blog post complaining about "social injustice warriors" and "insipid" use of pronouns. I am beginning to think he is not the genial paragon of insight and wisdom that he makes himself out to be. Still giving him a pass @TwiceHorn and @DDD Dad?

    Mack is the second most accomplished coach at Texas. It's hard to beat DKR with 3 championships and 11 conference championships.

    That was the point in bringing up Mack. DKR is clearly #1 my a large margin. If Sark is going to be #2 then he has to pass Mack.

    Southwest is petitioning for mandamus on the sanctions order.  And they're definitely gearing up to fight on the judgment.

     

    My knowledge of the Southwest General Counsel's office is a little out of date.  I still know a handful of the lawyers who are there.  But regardless--my impression is that they don't take shit lying down.  At least historically, they have a culture of litigating pretty aggressively.  

    So I'm only mildly surprised that they're petitioning for mandamus on the sanctions order.  But I'm not at all surprised to see them getting ready to take that judgment to SCOTUS.

    That's cool and all but I'm gonna go ahead and wait to see what @Lidig8r thinks about this when he gets some spare time.
