  1. Lol no
  2. More than that-with the exception of maybe some ultra-strict Christian Scientists and perhaps some other even more fringe groups who reject all medicine who aren’t coming to mind, there is no legitimate historical, doctrinal basis for opposing vaccinations in any denomination. At all. They are using religious liberty as a pretext to (not) do what they want for ideological reasons. Maybe they are scared, maybe they just don’t want to be told what to do. But they are lying. And any minister, pastor, church leader who gives them cover is lying. A desire to not take a shot (and not EVERY shot-just this one) is not a sincere religious belief. And beyond the obvious harm it inflicts through COVID, it harms the church too. Both through its witness-because, in confusing libertinism with liberty, it twists actual Christian teaching about living your neighbor and self-sacrifice inside out-and in undermining any potential future, legitimate claims relative to religious liberty.
  3. I don’t think he lied. The type of guy who widely broadcasts he’s in Mensa is exactly the type who is arrogant and stubborn enough to think he’s right beyond question.
  4. It was our biggest loss since Strong was here. To a historical rival. And it wasn’t even as close as the score indicated. It’s one game. It doesn’t define the season. But it was embarrassing, and nothing that happens the rest of the year will change that. We were whipped in every phase of the game, including game planning, and the QB wouldn’t have mattered except for the margin.
  5. I feel like we got embarrassed at Arkansas. So…pretty much the same, I guess.
  6. The difference today was the pass pro was also excellent.
  7. I texted my brother at halftime (who is a high school OL coach and so was working this morning) and told him if he got a chance, he should watch it later today because he’d appreciate it so much. I won’t make any longterm projections, because it’s just one game and they’ve ranged from mediocre to cover-your-eyes awful the 3 weeks prior. But today was the best OL performance I can recall in years-maybe since 2013, off the top of my head.
  8. Safari on iOS doesn’t load any of that stuff either.
  9. To his credit, he’s the only one of those initial articles to give the OL the credit they deserve in this one (except the very end of the last one). That was easily the story of this game.
  10. That sums up what I think about the very existence of game threads.
  11. Yeah I don’t see the problem.
  12. One year. He played 4 at Baylor, but gets the extra year everyone does for COVID. By quitting now, this year will count as a RS, since he never used one at Baylor.
  13. You have blessedly forgotten about Britt Mitchell. I envy you. Each is happy the other exists, because it means that the worst starting LT in team history isn’t undisputed.
  14. I mean, I don’t know for sure if that’s worse, but it’s no better at least. I don’t really want to think too hard about it.
  15. Let’s not go crazy. Ironically, my Facebook memory from today was a post from 11 years ago: “Britt Mitchell makes Adam Ulatoski look like Anthony Munoz.” The more things change…
  16. 2005
  17. He’s so bad it’s like he’s not even playing.
  18. Yep. Those 2 pairs are both 35 year old, polyester, Bike shorts. And I coached with Joe Gibbs.
  19. Well he’s moved on to politics full time now. But I don’t think it’s because he couldn’t retain an audience-he founded Outkick and built it into a pretty big college football brand-but because he’s a professional troll who found he could have an even bigger audience in politics, where people eat that schtick up.
  20. It is. But apparently Big Bertha isn’t the largest drum in college football either. “Even with a margin for error, that's smaller than the size of the University of Texas and University of Missouri drums. Purdue's claim to possess the "World's Largest Drum" was starting to look like what politicians delicately like to call a "stranger to the truth." “ https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.indystar.com/amp/3691109
  21. I wouldn’t call Travis a “failed sports writer.” Unfortunately.
  22. I know it’s a joke, but there’s even 57% among white evangelicals. Basically, I have no idea what his point was.
  23. It appears the overwhelming majority of religious people have been vaccinated too, so…
  24. You're not my type anyway.
  25. I don’t own a single pair of flip flops, a fishing shirt, or any casual shorts (I have 2 pair for athletic stuff).
