  1. Can you imagine how good that 2022 highest rated class of all time must have been considering all 4 services are systematically conspiring against A&M? Surely that collection of talent must have won at least 2 or 3 titles.
  2. Leclerc had a great late breaking move on cold tires to overtake Norris after the Kemmel Straight. Of course it was all for nothing because the clowns at Ferrari delivered a car that was about a half second per lap slower even with the new rear suspension that was supposed to magically fix all their issues, but it was executed perfectly.
  3. These cars create so much spray. I just hope we don’t have another cancelled race behind the safety car like a couple years ago. It sucks these cars can’t actually race in the rain.
  4. That’s great. That’s about as rural, small town Texas as it gets right there. I hope you didn’t get your disdain for brevity from your dad, or his poor congregation never would’ve beat the baptists to lunch. They might not have even made it to dinner.
  5. That's Sugar Bowl Champion, Breckyn Hager, to you, sir.
  6. This is a total nothingburger. The picks are their own and the Falcons. Unless Stafford is hurt all year and the Rams tank for the #1 pick, they would have to give up way more than those two firsts to move to #1 overall to get Arch. If Arch plays so well that he declares after this year, the team with the #1 overall pick probably wouldn’t be willing to trade out anyways.
  7. I wonder if the loser of the RT battle could slide to LG and start there. The fact that Neto is in year 4 and hasn't gotten much playing time and still can't win a starting job seems like a bit of a red flag.
  8. I honestly can’t tell if A&M athletics wants this published to convince recruits they’re one of the biggest players in college athletics or if this is a hit piece because A&M has so little to show for $51 million.
  9. It cracks me up that there are national pundits out there predicting Mateer to win the Heisman or thinking he will be an elite QB this year. He had a very good season last year, and he's a good QB. But his schedule was a joke. WSU had a large talent advantage in 8 of their 12 games, and 5 of their games last year were against teams outside the top 100 in Defensive FEI. Not surprisingly, most of those are the teams he feasted against and inflated his stats. He will be playing with better talent on offense, but the comparative talent against his opponents will get significantly worse for him this year. When you look at the defenses that were in the top 70 in DFEI (Tech 44th, UW 29th, Boise 32nd, Fresno 66th), his stats give a much more realistic indicator of what type of player he is. He had a great game against Boise and ran all over a poorly coached Tech defense, but he struggled mightily passing against three of the four. In total, he was 69/125, 55.2%, 215 YPG, 4 TDs 4 INTs with 75 Atts for 333 yds at 4.44 YPC. He's not great in the pass game against competition with a pulse, but he did hurt some of those teams on the ground. However, it's going to take a serious toll if he tries to have 20 carries per game against every average or better defense he faces this year. Anyone expecting Mateer to be a savior for the OU offense that can singlehandedly overcome a questionable OL and weak offensive weapons is in a for a rude awakening this Fall.

  10. Super lucky for Pato to be able to pit right before the yellow for Rossi came out. That won him the race. Sucks for Herta. He qualified on pole and was the fastest car all race, and was even about claw back a podium until a late yellow, but the yellows didn’t work in his favor and he ends up fourth. He deserved to win today.
  11. Yep. This stuff was leaked because they wanted to out him due to all the collusion and hiding info from the players union. Him and Tretter are pieces of shit that deserve to go.
  12. A&M drops from 82% down to 63% once they factor in transfers.
  13. That’s a pretty fucking terrible article for tOSU. If Sayin doesn’t turn out to be the guy, they are in huge trouble this year. Can’t wait to see him pissing his pants as Collin Simmons lives in the backfield all game.
  14. Interesting Reddit post about a legit contract with real obligations for the player from a collective getting denied.
  15. There's always money in the banana stand and, in this case, the banana stand is the entire budget for the state of Louisiana.
  16. I would be very surprised. Energy drinks are basically all marketing and F1 provides a shitload of marketing value for them. On top of that, RBR makes a ton of money thanks to the budget cap. They would probably spend close to 9 figures on marketing in F1 annually if they didn’t own a team. Instead, they get even more marketing value from it and make money on the team thanks to the budget cap. The only thing I could see them doing is selling VCARB and ditching their powertrains department and being a customer team, because the powertrains are a huge money pit and they don’t get much additional marketing gain from VCARB. But I would be shocked if they got rid of RBR.
  17. Huh? It's been known for a while he would be out at the end of the year. How does firing him midseason change anything? The team has been working on the new regs for a while now, and Horner was not a technically-minded team principal. This does very little to affect the new regs work, and it's not like RBR has any shot at the title this year. Plus, Horner is not very popular even within RBR. I struggle to see how firing Horner now is a bad move or changes anything. lol wut. Williams has terrible facilities and a limited budget. They're not even sniffing the top 5 teams Max should consider unless the Merc engine is 2014 levels of better than everyone else, and even then they'd be 3rd out of 4 teams with a real chance to fall behind Alpine in a year or two.
  18. lol wut. Williams barely got drafted. He was nowhere fucking near being a high first round pick even if he started two more years in college.
  19. Definitely. That's why Merc hasn't resigned George yet. They're waiting to see if Max will sign with them and then they're going to drop George like a rock.
  20. If I'm Max, I would sign a one year deal with either Merc or Aston, depending on what he knows about the Honda engine for next year. That way he can see who has the best engine/car in 26 and flip to that team the following year. He's hands down the best driver, so almost any team would jump to have him in 27. If he goes to AM, I bet he tries to get Toto to only sign George for one more year, so the Merc seat will be open in 27.
  21. It's honestly hard to believe the state of our recruiting right now. We have a chance to land 5 top 150 DTs and 3 top 50 national DEs in a single class. I'm not sure we landed that many elite DL in a 10 year span from Mack's last class to Sark's first class.
  22. Both of these updates gruntle me greatly.
