Blah blah blah whatever. I wouldn't want to change places with them in a million years. Their entire football history is constant failure and misery. If they want to twist that into some kind of triumph than go right ahead. We may not be great all the time but at last we have great times to look back on. Fuck the whole "well if we break down top 15 opponents and some strategic period of time then we are better." Well good for fucking you. I don't give a shit. I would rather we have 2004 and 2005. I would rather we have 2008 and 2009 and 2023 and 2024 then just endless misery forever. Sure there was a distant time 30 years ago when they owned our ass for about a decade. But that was a long time ago, we have mostly won our matchups since then. The whole idea I would be jealous at all of endless failure to the point there is even a term for it: battered aggie syndrome. Yeah I sure am jealous of that. Sure wish I could have that in my life. I will take being marginally inferior in some arbitrary metric over some abitrary period of time and have some actually successful seasons over whatever hell A&M fans live in.
It is kind of insane how much whisky Canadians drink. But Canada is in general our #1 trading partner so...not surprising some bad things were going to happen by pissing them off.
I don't know man. If the Biden years taught us anything none of those motherfuckers are going to suffer at all. The Democrats will just let them all get away with it. For that to be different a totally different Democratic party needs to emerge and while there are some moments of hopium, the grip of the old guard is tight around the party's neck.
We have to. This filibuster is currently just tool to convert us into a Presidential dictatorship by completely destroying the legislative branch. The Liberum Veto of the US. It needs to go. I understand why it existed and the value of protecting minority rights...if used sparingly in only extreme circumstances. But its current use to just block all legislation needs to go.
Believe me it gave me little pleasure to discover how many nazis are in the Republican party. But they were out there sieg heiling in the open in 2016. I am not sure why it is now some kind of shocker.
On my way down to Moody for some Christmas basketball. Can't wait to see Texas destroy those assholes from...um...*googles*...Maryland Eastern Shore. Those crabcake eating bastards.
These tickets cost me five bucks each. That's probably not a good sign huh?
Yep. Wins don't matter. Only losses. A lesson learned.
I wouldn't be mad, as College Football has always been like that...but for the fact that the committee specifically said they were not going to do that. And then they did it anyway.
I thought Georgia would win last year. So we'll see.
This is reactionary nonsense. Obviously nobody expected the ACC champ to be a five loss team. In like 99% of seasons there will only ever be one. Maybe change it so it will always be the P4 champs and the highest G5 champ. Whatever.
And there is no consistent way to always get 100% great matchups in every playoff game. So the G5 teams get blown out sometimes. Big whoop.
We had blowouts in the playoffs last year that did not even involve G5 schools. A G5 school didn't lost 65-7 to Georgia.
Everybody wants to panic and try to do radical change to fix things that are not even problems. The issue was that undefeated teams were getting left out of the post season. That problem is fixed. No deserving team will be left out again.
As far as splitting up the divisions into DI FCS, DI G5, and DIP4 well that shit isn't ever going to happen. So until this fantasy comes about I don't see why it is this enormous outrage that a midmajor plays in the playoffs. It happens in literally every other fucking sport. Every once in a while one will win a game or two and it will be cool. But it won't happen often.
They are until they aren't.
The current system is fair and fine. You cannot schedule good games. They happen organically.
The 15 vs 2 and 16 vs 1 in the Basketball playoff are very often routs. The 4 seed in the baseball playoff often get destroyed. But sometimes those games are awesome. I don't understand the panic and rage. Is it somehow unusual that the better games happen later in a tournament?
Well Tulane is ranked 11th so they would still have been in so people would still be furious and panicking. And JMU is 12th so your solution to this problem wouldn't solve it at all.
Whatever. We can do 16. But it won't guarantee every match up will be awesome any more than this one will.
A&M propaganda is strong. Their bullshit game is top notch. They are the epitome of style over substance. Pretending to be a bunch of country boy farmers when they are a bunch of suburban momma's boys. Pretending to be soldiers when they are a glorified boyscout troop. A legendary football tradition that hasn't done anything since WWII.
And it works. The national media gets dazzled by them. They get dazzled by their own bullshit. Our own fans start to believe it. Everytime A&M does anything the hand wringing and brow furrowing among Texas fans starts. It's wild. But that is the power of their propaganda. It is just too bad for them that whenever it comes time to deliver something of substance, A&M always fails. They are all hat, no cattle. They have giant pick up trucks not to do anything productive, just to drive around Katy with.
