  1. It's obvious. It's on the TV. Seems that stuff is irrelevant. The motherfucker belongs in a cell or home arrest pending outcome of criminal proceedings including what is apprarent treason and insurrection even though we can't call it that because we're the ones constrained by law. He wanted to be in the lead of the Capitol invasion but was denied by his SS driver. In summary, execution would be appropriate.
  2. They're proud of that because the information actually takes work to get. It's not important or even interesting to know these things, but boy howdy, those reporters got a scoop! I get most of my TV news through links on this board. I subscribe to two papers online and receive three magazines. I never have to watch CNN or anybody else. I can only take so much of every news story being boiled down for what it could mean for the election. They're in election mode autopilot. A huge story about the rise of fascism in America is all around them. No one has covered a story like that before and it's not discussed in journalism school. It won't fit the template of being balanced by collecting quotes from both sides because one side is clearly and dangerously wicked. So it's the same tired talk of the election horse race totally blind to the monster rising from the ground of the infield. What a tragedy for real reporters. And us.
  3. He's an amateur operative out to help the party. He got the message that this was the way to go after Biden, so he's doing it. Unpaid liar. It's cynical but neither gullible nor dumb. It's also despicable.
  4. In an earlier office I worked in, I introduced my self to a woman on one of my first days. She's middle age and working in a cubicle with her framed law degree clinging to the cloth wall. There's the usual tonnage of Aggie stuff around in case there was any doubt (I don't recall where the law degree was from). "Hi, I'm RomaVicta. Nice to meet you. Looks like you went to A&M." "Yes, I did, where did you go?" "Texas here in Austin-" "Ewwwww." "- a long time ago." She got friendlier, and I was never anything but friendly. I didn't say, "you must be a pretty big time lawyer to be working in a state cubicle pulling down middle five figures!" Like most fellow Longhorns I've worked with, you usually don't know it until you ask or it comes up in some natural context like a discussion of college sports. Usually low key. I searched the cubicle warren for a Texas Law School diploma, but didn't find one from there or anywhere else. I guess there were none, or they were smart/embarrassed enough not to hang it.
  5. Few people ever give their lives. Soldiers knowingly risk their lives in very dangerous environments; some lose their lives. That's to be honored. No person on that idiotically grandiose waste of trees thought they were risking life and limb. Not one of them spent a dying moment amid the horrible crush of colliding logs thinking, "at least this is part of a great cause." A real engineer in their college advised against the way the logs were put together. There had been previous collapses. It was an exercise in denial and stupidity. Any future bonfire of that absurd size memorializes what is wrong with that place. Stop lying about yourselves, your past, and the holy spirit of Aggieland. Just stop. Fortunately, their decision to become a diploma mill will eventually see the ascendance of the 2%ers.
  6. Yep it's a bigger deal to beat OU, and it's a bigger deal to lose to A&M.
  7. I think an Aggie source that @closetojumping quoted stated that his ankle is still healing which was raising questions about who might start. In fact, as I think about it, I believe it was the head coach himself who said this. Further, medical professionals on this board described how serious the injury and that you don't know if it will heal all the way until it actually does. I'm not saying Weigman's prospects are dire, but I don't believe they're as assured as you write.
  8. I never got tired of that visual being used. It's like the furious woman and the cool cat at the table. Some memes are immortal.
  9. Then I'm a dumbass who should pay closer attention. Honestly, I can't tell to whom he refers, but your opinion makes more sense than him talking about William Liucci.
  10. When all you're left with is faux disdain, you should drop out of the argument.
  11. In Soviet USA, National Campaign Office take campaign donations from you. Sean, we were looking over donations to Trump Truth Defense Fund and see that you have not yet responded. Now more than ever, we need patriots who love America as much as President Trump to stand with him to defend this great country. Make your commitment today to our great country. Tomorrow, I will take the list of donors to the Oval Office for President Trump to review. He will disappointed if your name isn't on the list. Here is a photograph of President Trump in the Oval Office reviewing the list of patriots who support the Trump Truth Defense Fund. He's looking for your name!
  12. Sadly, he's neither of those on mass media. He comes across as a humorless homer obsessed with talking about Texas. "They're kissing their own ass, and that's hard to do." (Regarding Texas from William's appearance on the SEC show) I think he's mastered that himself. It's also not particularly witty. I'm not offended by it, BTW.
  13. Well, it did include exact rather than "almost exact" words. World War 2: Wow, Me Boys!
  14. How do you feel about the point Biden was illustrating by mentioning his uncle? Trump's stated opinion about losers and his failure to endure drizzle to pay respect to those losers at a ceremony honoring America's WW1 soldiers who died? This would apply to Biden's uncle. You good with that? Biden should also get some acuity points for recalling that it was the Army Air Corps not the Air Force.
  15. This is funnier than anything you've posted. You use quotes after you say the words are not exact. I watched the ABC tape, and he says the plane went down in an area of cannibals. His remains were never recovered. Of course, this is just a wind up before he recalls Trump calling veterans losers and letting drizzle prevent him from joining other world leaders at a ceremony honoring America's dead. How much of that type of benefit do you give a man who bragged about grabbing women by the pussy, was later found to have raped E. Jean Carrol who was among many women who came forth with stories of his abuse and harrassment, stole from a children's charity, failed at every business he tried, and lies about his devotion to the Bible to vote Trump in as president in the first place? You can add criminal attempts to sway states to send false electors, a taped conversation of him threatening an elected GOP official if he didn't come up with 11,000 votes, oh! and the fucking insurrection attack on the Capitol. Why don't we throw in stealing and sharing highly classified government secrets and having his son-in-law collect billions from Saudi and UAE? I guess I should give you the benefit of the doubt, but fuck you and fuck your complicity in destroying this republic. Negged for the reasons above, of course.
  16. It's okay, they didn't mean to hit a playground. They were aiming at a food convoy. Israel Government Press Release: Tragic. Our hearts break for those dead children. The Israeli ones not the Palestinian ones. It's all about the children; ours.
  17. @Make em eat Taco Bell Opportunities for young people? Apply here!
  18. These posts about familiar names from the past who seemed like great prospects illustrates the futility of projecting future line-ups based on recruit ratings and even evaluations. When Mack got here, I used to feel sorry for all the starters that would soon be displaced by the incoming players of a highly ranked recruiting class. I overestimated the impact. You really don't know who will pan out and who won't. You also can't be sure of how a mediocre starter on campus may improve over a year. I like to follow recruiting and delight in getting highly ranked players. I don't assume that I can guess how they'll turn out.
  19. Plus, he talks about us playing in stadiums week after week filled with rabid fans. I got news for you, William, we play in stadiums like that every week already. I went up to Wyoming for the game there in 2009. The stadium was packed and the fans were wildly enthusiastic. I asked one of the Wyo Cowboys sitting beside me if it was like that every week, I was impressed. "Nah. The place is usually about half full but not when Texas is coming to town." I'm sure the Aggies have faced many half-full stadiums in their history because...well, because they're the Aggies and nobody cares that much about them nor is their any historic prestige to having a win against them. We're known everywhere, and everyone wants to be able to say they beat us that one time. Hell, when we were awful Macovic's last year, the stock price for companies that made goalposts must have shot way up. We were bad and we played in front of full stadiums where the goalposts were torn down whenever we lost. Baylor tore down their goalposts when they beat the Aggies, but I'm pretty sure nobody else ever has. Nobody cares that much. Well, unless they've got a facilities fetish.
