I know the F35 has external hardpoints, but didn't know the F22 did.
There are 4x of them, although I've only seen them with fuel tanks and/or missiles on them. TBH, I should have said "theoretically" up above, because I'm not 100% sure they've ever actually bothered to implement or test the capability to drop bombs from the externals. I do know they've dropped live bombs from the internal bays though.
E: Now with markings! https://theaviationist.com/2016/05/16/f-22-raptor-stealth-fighter-sports-low-visibility-bomb-markings/

I had to leave so I couldn’t watch the rest of the game, but I think the aaf only does reviews during coach challenges
Yeah, Singletary challenged it. The announcers wouldn't stfu though, and they only piped the booth audio in at the very end of the review when the dude up there was talking about not being able to see it and it stands.
E: Speaking of which, the ref seemed familiar. Not Big 12, I don't think, but maybe Pac 12?

Only 2 needed anything more than minor repairs.
Oh that's not so bad then.

The NFL influence is slinking in. A questionable critical call, suddenly we don't get to see and hear the replay ref making his decision, who weasels out and just sticks with the call on the field, and did we even get one replay ourselves during the whole time?
You could hear them talking about how they couldn't see the ball.

As an air-superior fighter the F22 outmatches the F15 (including the X) by every measure. But it can't do all the other roles modern fighter jets can do. It wasn't intended to.
With the exception of its ungodly cost and those oxygen problems at the start, I think the F22 has been pretty good?I think about the only thing it doesn't do quite as well is external load capabilities. They can hang bombs on the wings if they aren't worried about being stealthy, but not quite as much (and also why when you have F-15Es, F-16s, F-35s, etc to do that for you anyway).
Did they ever say how may F-22s were trashed by that hurricane? I'm assuming that one would basically have to be broken down to atoms before they completely write it off given the small number of them, but there are/were also probably several that we not flyable for a while.

Can’t believe this made it to two pages without someone claiming they always do coke off a hookers ass first.
Well yeah. No one needs to say anything about it, because that's what everyone does before putting on their shoes and socks.

It's also out of date, since Squints might have surpassed it with Orlando.
Surely he did. He caught a TD pass and threw for however many more.

Ah, ok. For some reason I was thinking 12 teams. But yeah, 8 teams makes more sense, especially with an inaugural season. I can't imagine this won't do well enough to allow for expansion. If the rest of the season goes like this game, this could really take off.
They're going to be directly competing with the XFL next season, but this one seems to kind of embrace the idea of being a D league for the NFL, while the XFL supposedly doesn't want to have anything to do with that. I feel like working with, instead of competing against, the gigantic piles of cash and power (football wise) known as the NFL is probably the better way to go, but then again I'm just a random dude.

Damn. Seems like a short season. I guess they have to since it's new and they want to see how well it performs before moving on to discussions.
Yeah, seems like it. Looks like they play everyone in their conference twice, the other conference once, then go to the playoffs. I guess with only 8 teams, there's no way to make it a whole lot longer without shit getting pretty repetitive.

That was great. Will definitely be watching for the rest of the season, which appears to run up to the NFL Draft.

Aw man, you have to catch that.

Again with illegal defense. What is that?
I wonder if that's what they're saying for 12 guys on the field.
-
Okay yeah I'm liking this league a lot already.

This honestly to me looks kinda like quality college football.
That's more or less what I was thinking. If all the teams are like this, it's definitely not a bad thing.

Does the audio keep kinda cutting out for anyone else?

Turnout in the lower stands, isn't terrible.
Looks like the upper deck is closed like they do for UTSA games (IIRC).

Just watch it on CBS, ztejas.

This intrigues me. I’ve been looking for a stainless steel band dive watch in the $100-$250 range for some time. Daily wear, active, pool and shower, water sports, would like to take to 120’ diving.
I've taken both a Citizen and a Seiko diving. Look for the ones that are ISO....uh numbernumbernumbernumber...certified for diving. They'll say "Diver's X00m" (at least 100) on them. They're solid watches.
E: ISO 6425. This doesn't mean that watches that don't say that won't be able to handle it though, just to be clear. Oh if you get one with a steel bracelet, you might want to check to make sure it has an extender.
