  1. Nice to see someone focusing on the important parts of the story: Imagine if had been only ten days after Easter or on El Dia de Los Muertos! And who has ever had an affair with 3 children at home? John needs to print up the rules for everyone.
  2. Negged twice for quoting lies to disparage a man's character. You should be envying it, traitor.
  3. I guess this is one of those times when I didn't say something everybody else was thinking. I even skipped through the later seasons, her character is unbearable to me. As I wrote above, I love some of the stuff I see lifted out of the show. Actually, the problem must be all of you being idiots. If only I could share my superior insight, but the blast of pure light might be lethal.
  4. I was thinking of businesses other than tourism, as well. Heavy hitters won't put up with this shit and cease coming to America for business. American businesspersons will have to travel to them. As with soy sales, if you make transactions more complicate, your customers start looking around for alternatives. Discomfort leads to change. When people or businesses change, they aren't looking to go back to what is or was complicated. I'm no expert on the affect on business of transitioning to a police state from a free democracy. I'm sure there are upsides. Jack boot sales and prison building will likely boom. If he wasn't so despicable, this pitiful display would be sad. Old guy doing his old routine while the grand children clap but this is the President of the United States.
  5. I love the bits I see from this show. We all love Aubrey Plaza. Amy Poehler is just so bad, that I can't watch coplete episodes. I blame Trump.
  6. You know, one of the best, proudest, most honorable moments in college football happened this year. I get choked up just thinking about. Because we are honorable and intellectually honest here at Texas A&M University home of the Fightin' Texas Aggies from Texas, we cannot accept our bid to the National Champion, we like to call it a natty here where they're unkown, Playoff. Clearly, Notre Dame was not the team they are now when we played them. That negates our victory. They'd clearly beat us now even with our holding (honorably, of course) OL. The rest of our schedule was low grade except for t.u.. They outscored us when we ran out of time. We hold other teams up to this standard. We now apply it to ourselves. We will not seek nor will we accept a bid to the playoff. Good night, gig 'em, and God bless. I have no words that can adequately express my admiration. Correct.
  7. That article about Kentucky assistant Shay becoming tight ends coach for Elko paints a pretty formidable picture. He may have been a member of the National Honor Society as well. We're checking with our sources.
  8. The remaining morons may go stochastic on her ass.
  9. She has forgotten that her audience are irony-deaf, humorless, morons.
  10. Exactly. This story makes me sad today. Truly. My country is a murderous, cruel, amoral shit stain on the world map. It's too much. And not a good one.
  11. After an astonishing season enroute to their first actual "natty," the Aggies will perfectly end their season by beating ebil t.u. in their own horrible stadium. The rocket that is A&M launches to a new era. Texas A&M'll be respected and feared throughout the land! Let's all go to Austin for the luscious finale. A perfect blast off! As perfect as an absurdly huge bonfire! Poor Aggies. Still Aggies.
  12. Our OL has been maligned around here all season. Do you think Miami's line is inferior to ours? Honest question.
  13. I don't know a lot about Miami. They've looked good in the games I saw. Looking at their schedule, they've stomped a number of teams including Pitt to end the season. The Aggies narrowly won their close games with lesser opponents, Miami narrowly lost similar games. It's probably prejudice, but I feel like A&M is no more proven than Miami. They led us at halftime, but we were robbed of two drives by non-calls of pass interference. Those passes may have been caught, or Texas may have proceeded to score after the penalties. No matter what, we didn't get those opportunities. If the Aggies get their big play guys going, I think it's a high scoring game where I give the edge to Miami barring a Beck turnover fest. I see Miami winning, but I'm a football idiot. A nice spanking of the Aggies leaving them to spend the off-season saying losing to us than immediately getting bumped from the playoff is far better than beating us. Aggie mental contortion.
  14. Nicely fashioned argument. You're special.
  15. Yes, they should be even-tempered like Surly!
  16. Well, Napoleon found the crown in the gutter. Trump is dragging his down to the gutter.
  17. Looks like a fuckin' Participation Medal awards ceremony at a Special Olympics. Except actual participants are generally kind by nature and good human beings.
  18. SEC Mike and a few others know how to keep a floor to their ratings: Tell Aggies what they want to hear. Tapping into their desire to find a way to say they actually beat Texas even after losing to them is the smart business move. Stoking their fantasy about being elite is another smart move. We know what's next.
  19. All of sports are meaningless exhibition. People like the immediate drama of not knowing who will win a game. If all someone cares about is the season, why watch anything other than a championship game? It actually nicely links to what watching a game offers: small victories like first downs, larger victories like scoring or smothering the other team, and all the way to the final victory. The result of the game becomes a small victory that's part of a season. Players like to play. I'm sure anybody on this board who played would be ecstatic to play another meaningless exhibition. Who cares about a bloodless calculation made by some fan who whines at anything less than total victory? If I had the privilege of being a player, I'd be all about "Let's suit up and play Michigan. Sounds like fun to me." I don't even understand what pleasure there is in following the sport any other way. Of course, some seem to watch the Longhorns to feed some sort of weird displeasure jones. Players bound for the NFL in a few months may want to sit out, but they know they will play again.
  20. The Notre Dame special deal needs to end. They're no more important to college football than Alabama, USC, Texas, or any number of other teams who people feel are good for college football. It's not the job of college football to keep ND independent and relevant. What leverage other than nostalgia do they have to demand their deal?
  21. I'd say the important factor is getting the top 8 correct. Get out much lower than that and you get endless bickering about who had superior losses. If you're microscoping three losses, you don't belong among the elite. Sorry. Shoulda won more games than 9.
