Senate 2026
Yeah I don't think he is a centrist either. My main concern with him is he doesn't seem to channel working class rage like Platner does...but we shall see.

Tell Me About Notre Dame
Cal's season is one of the most nonsensical things I have seen in a long time. They lose 34-0 to San Diego State and get destroyed by Stanford...yet take down Louisville and SMU and finish 7-5 and get a vacation in Hawaii.

Senate 2026
I think people are fed up with the current system and are willing and eager to take chances on anybody promising big changes. So running some centrist status quo warrior will not get much traction.

To be fair to Kirk and Sanchez the Democrats were losing elections by like 30 points back in that era. It didn't really matter what they did.

How is it better? We got royally fucked in 2008. And intentionally by tons of petty fucks in the coaching profession and the media. The computers factored in tons of irrelevent nonsense. And now I am supposed to be outraged and want to bring that back since our 3 loss team didn't make it? Fuck that.

Oh fuck no. No BCS model. Fuck the polls.

There is no non-dangerous path forward.

Senate 2026
If the Democrats are even remotely close late in this race the money will pour in on both sides. No reason to worry about the money during the Primary.

Go Army, Beat Navy
Still annoyed by last year's game. I wanted Army to win so bad. Ah well. Go Army I guess.

Colin Allred, doing what nobody asked
I don't know. We tend to get between 42% to 48% of the vote. That's at least a slightly pinkish shade of red.

The fact he dropped out almost makes me think the Dems are taking this race seriously.

Citrus Bowl 2025 Game Week Thread
Yeah and I would do it again for another 2005. Holy shit we went 22-1 against teams that weren't Ohio State or Georgia the past two seasons. Obviously we are getting close. That one really fucking sucked though.

Trump’s America
It is so racist it is almost surreal. On a "holy shit what is your problem?" kind of surrealness. But this is the same guy who got up there and did a blood libel on Haitians for some bizarre reason and everybody went along with it. It can always get worse and there is no bottom.

Trump’s America
Well first of all...I would expect nothing less from this terrible country I call home. Second why pick that picture of Canadians? DId they really have no stock images of Americans getting sworn in as citizens? I guess I should be happy it isn't just AI these days.

Senate 2026
I have a little bit of time to think about it. I had my heart set on Talarico so I am hesitant to switch. Crockett just entered the race though. Might as well listen to what they both have to say. There will probably be a debate or something at some point right?

Damnit! I have been making that mistake since 3rd grade.

Arch needs to play more games. Every game he gets more confident. If he gets injured well he gets injured. That's football. And if Simmons gets hurt well at least it happened in December. Nobody who needs to worry about the draft or an imminent pro career will be playing. And heck maybe some of our returning starters who are resting injuries might not play either. It is a chance to see who our starters for next year will be.

Citrus Bowl 2025 Game Week Thread
Exactly. Non-playoff bowl games are a celebration of everything you accomplished during the season. Time to go out to...um...*googles Citrus Bowl*...Orlando and party. Check out Disney World I don't know. Then play a game against Michigan. I don't really see the point of skipping the bowl game. That *too*.

Ah gotcha. They were auto bids. How bizarre.

Ok as somebody who feels very strongly that the best G5 team belongs in the playoffs I am still kind of blown away they put two of them in there. Was that really necessary? Especially as neither was unbeaten and combined for one top 25 win...against North Texas. What the hell happened there? They just didn't want to touch the Notre Dame vs. Texas vs. BYU thing. Lame.

Taking their ball and going home. Ah well. Enjoy winter in northern Indiana Notre Dame. Our team will be having a party with a scrimmage attached to it against Michigan.

Should be fun. Hope we get to see a lot of next year's starters.

True. But the same kind of thing was true during the BCS era.

I just think the bottom line is if you lost more than one game and you get a playoff berth it is a gift. I am not going to lose any sleep our 3 loss team didn't make it. Even if some less deserving teams made it in. We had a shot to get it done and we didn't. And yes I understand the perverse scheduling incentives that creates. If it is solely about your losses and not your wins then why take any risks? But college football has always been that way.
