  1. What, he’s not dating Sidney Sweeney? Meh.
  2. The way Clemson, Michigan, etc were sign stealing was absolutely illegal.
  3. Can you explain what the heck you are saying?
  4. You also apparently know how to be an idiot.
  5. oh really? oh really?? No, really.
  6. Ass kissing suck-up.
  7. Not really. It doesn’t look at what really matters. Debt as a % of GDP. And it doesn’t show who actually had control over a budget when it was set. This post from the mortgage thread does. The Republicans are not the wonderful stewards of money they claim to be, and Donald Trump was and is looking to be again a disaster. Fiscal Year President Responsible House Control Senate Control Deficit (USD) % of GDP 2012 Barack Obama (D) Republican Democratic $1.327 trillion 8.5% 2013 Barack Obama (D) Republican Democratic $680 billion 4.1% 2014 Barack Obama (D) Republican Democratic $485 billion 2.8% 2015 Barack Obama (D) Republican Republican $442 billion 2.4% 2016 Barack Obama (D) Republican Republican $585 billion 3.1% 2017 Barack Obama (D)† Republican Republican $665 billion 3.4% 2018 Donald Trump (R) Republican Republican $779 billion 3.8% 2019 Donald Trump (R) Democratic Republican $984 billion 4.6% 2020 Donald Trump (R) Democratic Republican $3.132 trillion 14.9% 2021 Donald Trump (R)† Democratic Republican†† $2.775 trillion 12.4% 2022 Joe Biden (D) Democratic Democratic $1.375 trillion 5.5% 2023 Joe Biden (D) Republican Democratic $1.695 trillion 6.3% 2024 Joe Biden (D) Republican Democratic $1.833 trillion 6.4% 2025 Joe Biden (D) Republican Democratic $1.9 trillion 6.5% Footnotes: † Although Donald Trump was president during part of FY 2017 (starting January 20, 2017), the FY 2017 budget was mostly planned and signed into law during the Obama administration. Trump later signed supplemental appropriations. †† Senate control in FY 2021 was effectively split 50-50 after the January 2021 runoffs in Georgia, with Vice President Kamala Harris (D)casting tie-breaking votes, giving Democrats functional control starting late January 2021 — but this occurred after the FY 2021 budget was largely set under Republican control. I think this chart sums it up pretty well. Barack Obama did a pretty good job as President keeping spending under or around 3% of GSP after the 2009 financial crisis died down. Trump was an absolute disaster because he panicked during Covid and wildly overspent. Biden was ridiculously overspending, and here we sit with Trump in office and in control over both houses of Congress and the House passed a budget that will be the worst yet. Specifically for FY 2026, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimates that the deficit could rise by nearly $600 billion, bringing the total deficit to approximately $2.3 trillion, or about 7.3% of GDP . Fucking disaster.
  8. Your inability to see that a QB is nowhere near as influential to the outcome of games as a single women’s softball pitcher doesn’t make you look like the genius you think you look like right now.
  9. OP’s post will go down in Shag history as one of the worst predictions ever. Even if you are a staunch conservative, you’d have to admit that the country is currently run by a bunch of childish “leaders”. It’s historic.
  10. Every year I over-rate the Aggies. And they then proceed to underachieve. But I look at their roster and it’s really not that great. They do have a better head coach than in the past, but the rest of the staff is questionable. So if I’m thinking the ceiling is 8-4, then history would suggest 7-5 or 6-6, and it’s only that good because of such a weak schedule.
  11. I’m not talking about just this one pitcher or this series. I’m talking about the game overall. One player has way too much influence on the outcomes of too many games in a season.
  12. This sport sucks. With one pitcher, any team can make their way to the championship. It’s too dependent on one player. Imagine if a Cy Young pitcher in MLB could pitch every game. I wish they limited innings pitched by a pitcher so that the overall games would be more interesting.
  13. Thanks for the references. If he’s challenged to work, any others would also help.
  14. Wow. What a gullible rube.
  15. They actually play the audio of the apology on The Ticket radio in Dallas every once in awhile, whenever someone has to apologize about something. Hahahahahah
  16. The calendar turns to the month of June. The spring flowers have long past bloomed. April showers have sprinkled the landscape, refreshing the wildlife and plants, providing them much needed nourishment. The sun’s warmth lightly tans the skin. And goddam Texas best case class forecasts go up in flames and Satya emerges from his winter slumber to slather doom and gloom all over the recruiting thread. Rinse repeat. Like clockwork.
  17. On those Facebook snake groups the consensus is often wrong. Look for what the moderator says. They are the gold standard.
  18. We got hit in Leander by the hail storm. I was out of town. My next door neighbor had a roofing guy from Linear Roofing come out. Said the roof needed replacement and there was damage to the fence, downspouts, gutters, and window glazing. I went ahead and had him inspect ours too since I wasn’t there to find my own roofing company. He found similar results. We have a 3,300 sq ft 2 story house and rough WAG he thought it would cost $30-35k (just the roof) to replace the roof with Certainteed Landmark shingles. Does anyone have experience with Linear? Other roofing company recommendations in Austin? Thoughts about the WAG cost? We have a 2% deductible for hail. Ouch.
  19. No chance it’s a coachwhip?
  20. There ain’t nothing humble about his brag at all. More like a douche brag.
  21. I think we all know exactly why the alien sightings have stopped. Alien travel vacation season ended.
  22. Come on dude. What the hell?
  23. Guy here overseas with a #43 tatood to his thigh. Hes between 35-55 years old. Who is he?
