  1. I like him. Our challenge is we can't keep recycling Beto or whomever. We need to keep finding new people who have to gain traction. The Republicans just get to run the same motherfuckers for decades. It will obviously take some kind of massive disaster for the Democrats to win. Almost isn't worth it as they will be trying to govern whatever smoking crater the Republicans leave them. But we have to try with an intention to win, and continue to find good new faces. Gotta make the bastards sweat a little from time to time.
  2. Wow we spent tons of money and made ourselves hated around the world and achieved basically nothing. America ladies and gentlemen. Look I hate to be captain obvious here but Iran is inevitably going to get a nuke if they want one. If you want to stop them you have to do something a little more drastic than just drop a few bombs. Or, you know, negotiate and sign a deal like Obama did.
  3. Because Texas was in the Women's one.
  4. I agree. I was a big fan of Borbombs. He was a problem on defense. Dude can hit and I hope he is even better next season.
  5. Yeah we probably need a fourth weekend guy. But if it Volantis the season is probably fucked anyway. Damn it, why doesn't LSU ever lose their ace to Tommy John?
  6. Flores' fielding stats do not reflect his limitations as a fielder. Last season he was a liability, despite not committing that many actual errors. That is not to say this Stanford guy doesn't also suck in the field, just that Flores' stats don't tell the whole story. Yep. He was a great Saturday/Sunday type guy. A Volantis-Riojas-Harrison rotation would be strong.
  7. Worst season ever. Congrats LSU. Fuckers.
  8. WTH? When was the last time Bill endorsed anybody? And he does it for that corrupt creep Cuomo? Well actually that does make sense now that I type it out.
  9. Hey man we have been going hard on the "free market will work things out" for decades and the result is that it failed to work things out and generated tons of right and leftwing populists. I am open to new ideas. I think public grocery stores might be necessary in an environment where the market created powerful monopolies that are creating food deserts. I think social housing might be needed in areas where the market made tons of people homeless.
  10. It seems to be working. Anything with -arch in it I think everybody intuitively understands is evil.
  11. Means nothing. She will fall in line eventually.
  12. We did that when we bombed Serbia during the Kosovo bullshit 25 years ago. Nothing special about that.
  13. Yeah man. These people have their head stuck in the 1990s...or up their ass. Same thing.
  14. They aren't pro-war, they aren't anti-war They are just pro-Trump.
  15. Which is why I think it is worth letting it go for a few years just to see how it plays out before knee jerk reacting to everything that happens every year.
  16. Why? The NFL has had byes since 1978.
  17. 1998 and Ricky Williams ended it. Though the Charlie Strong era brought it back temporarily. In 2015 I sat on the 50 yard line, 20 rows up for basically nothing against Kansas State. I have no issue going to watch Texas suck, it's still Texas football.
  18. I think we should leave the playoff system alone for a few years and see it play out a bit before we start rushing to fix it. Personally I thought it was fine last season.
  19. I was in the endzone behind the play. I remember it because from my perspective it was hilarious. Hadnot got the ball and a giant hole opened right in the middle of the line and he seemed to just run untouched for a TD. It looked like the easiest TD ever scored from where I was sitting. But the main thing about that game is the defense just kicked the crap out of TCU that day including a pick six. The offense was, as it was the entire season, total garbage mostly.
  20. I was at that game with a bunch of my friends. We went to HEB and got a bunch of $5 endzone tickets. Still amazed that was once something you could do.
  21. At least they are getting paid now. Well...ok fine. At least they are getting legally paid now.
  22. That is the greatest thing since Jose Canseco's head homer. Right off the top of the glove. That is exactly what happened. It was hilarious. He called off the guy who could have easily made the play and overran it.
  23. This has been known for decades. Iraq and Iran have both been mocked for my entire life for talking a big game and playing a small one. Nobody except our idiotic government and media seem to think they are actually a real threat to anybody outside of Kuwait.
  24. Yeah. Never start penciling people onto the roster until after the draft. It is kind of hilarious how different the baseball draft is from the football draft. The football draft is a moment of pride, to celebrate the accomplishments of our player development. The baseball draft is where our fondest hopes go to die.
