  1. A lot of times the pining for amateur politicians strikes me as the same as the glorification of college athletics, and the old desire for militias instead of standing armies. Government is important but we often either try to staff it with hobbyists or become willing to tolerate useless non-entities to outright bad actors because we lie to ourselves about its value.
  2. The bright side is that by asking the COVID for an armistice now, it is believed that it will allow a rump state to be formed with the seat of government in Birmingham or some such
  3. Being on drugs seems like it would be the only way to make getting a foot job worthwhile
  4. You don’t file lawsuits to kick field goals
  5. The fuck it we’’ll just try to out score em strategy only works with mistake free offense and the other team occasionally shooting themselves in the foot or something
  6. You can’t hire Urban Meyer assistants and expect to have real success
  7. I’m pretty sure their mom was a track star, and their paternal grandfather was Olympic silver medalist in the 100
  8. Living next to an Air Guard/temporary AF base due to runway work at Offut has taken some of fun out of stadium flyovers for me, just because I see cool shit half the time when I got get my mail, and half because I get annoyed when they fuck around with C-130s all weekend
  9. Given that Texas already hired Tom Herman, I’m puzzled by the assertion that Urban would somehow be a turd too far
  10. Thanks to the Nebraska Democrats being the KU football of state level political parties, he doesn’t really have to worry. The guy that won the D primary got disavowed for sexual harassment, so while he’s on the ballot the party is pushing a write in.
  11. and they still managed to let Jim Fix it for years
  12. The science is that you don’t want to move air around in a poorly ventilated space, and it’s hard to heat buildings without doing that
  13. Also a big part of Hud was how to deal with a contagious disease that could screw your neighbors over too.
  14. Are you surprised he’s being dipshit with no god damn regard for anything but himself and his precious feelings?
  15. I’m sure he has auto steer.
  16. These guys would take an intentional safety when they’re up 1 point
  17. Just remember they worked on JFK for a good while and the back of his skull was gone
  18. Pieces of Hannity would still be falling to this day
  19. Because it hard to be so consistently tone deaf with choices on his level
  20. If nothing else tonight has reminded me that there are plenty of dumbshits out there that will grab the electric fence even though they can hear the ticking
  21. I’ll also posit Nebraska-1 could be a wild card as well. Might not be as likely as NE-2, but if you can get Lincoln to turn out, and some of the more favorable Biden military numbers are accurate it could surprise. (NE-1 is Lincoln+SE Corner+Offutt Adjacent)
  22. The Omaha World Herald had a great series last year about the neighborhood he grew up in. Sayers, Bob Gibson, Bob Boozer, Ron Boone, Marlin Briscoe, and Johnny Rogers all came out of the same few blocks in a 10 year span, and were coached by Gibson’s older brother
  23. Pete Ricketts should be in the receiving votes category
  24. I don’t think you’re curious about it at all.
