  1. My alma mater. Unfortunately, the facts are indifferent.
  2. Clown status confirmed.
  3. Sayin is looking better than Arch so far. He's loose and is putting it on his WRs. Good thing Smith has the yips. Defense is looking damn good though!
  4. Arch needs to loosen up. Looking like Starch Manning...too stiff.
  5. Arch knows he can run, right?
  6. Because he wins 50-50 balls.
  7. Nice throw by Sayin. Kid can toss it.
  8. "Let 'er rip." -Sark
  9. Did we get a hype video this week? Not that I need it.
  10. In other news, Georgia Tech just went up by a TD on Colorado with a minute left. In Colorado.
  11. It's only a penalty if his helmet stays on. Ripping the helmet off nullifies it.
  12. "Speaking of Trigg, we talked about Texas high school football, he's from Florida, but there's nothing like Texas high school football." "You have to throw the ball in front of the receiver so he can catch it." RGIII's insightful commentary.
  13. #11 should be benched for that lack of effort. Ball on the ground and he's just standing there like a spectator.
  14. I want us to get out of there with a win and no injuries, especially none to key players. Ever since Colt McCoy, we always seem to be short an important piece or two. Last year, it was Bond not being at 100% and while I was never high on Ewers to being with, he regressed after the oblique injury. I just want us to play best-on-best all year. If we can't win a NC doing that, then we don't deserve it anyway.
  15. Yeah, I have some footage of La Junta and it's certainly bad, but I'm thinking of another. It may not have been one of the camps; perhaps a resort of some kind. Definitely laid out like a camp/resort though...central building/amenities/pool, houses/cabins (or used to be) in rows off to the side. Off the top of my head, the slabs were perpendicular to the riverbed. Could have been a street with private homes. Whatever it was, it's not there anymore. I'll look later and see if I can overlay with map data.
  16. From what I've seen from the air, the junior cabins are still there. I'll have to go through the raw video I have, but one of the other camps has a bunch of bare slabs. Wiped clean, and not from cleanup crews.
  17. Don't worry. Attention-seeking behavior and vicarious trauma by proxy™️ are immediate deal-breakers.
  18. You sure do post a lot about how this is affecting you (via 3-4 Kevin Bacon steps). I could understand generalized heartache for a tragedy like this (dead kids is about as bad as it gets), but you seem to really, REALLY want to personally attach yourself to it via your cousin's friend's kid and your other cousin's friend's niece. I don't think I've seen a post of yours yet (many of them in multiple threads) where you don't somehow make it about you via them. It's the internet, so you can do whatever you want, I guess. But it's pretty off-putting, to be quite honest.
  19. Placing blame is a coping mechanism. Our brains don't like the idea of "terrible stuff happens and sometimes there's nothing you can do about it," so we rationalize it by finding fault. It's a subconscious way of adding a "we're in control" element to a situation (implied by placing blame for the lack of control). Others understand this and preemptively defend themselves against the blame they know is coming, which only makes matters worse. As always, there are degrees to it, none of which are universally applicable But calm, rational thought has gone the way of the dinosaur and wisdom/judgment left the building a long time ago.
  20. Temu Becerra whenever he makes an error or strikes out.
  21. Dime a dozen in southern LA. The quality of the women there is incongruent with everything else about that dump of a state.
  22. I almost never criticize the umpires for how they manage the game and coaches. Tipping the scales like that in the CWS championship series is pretty indefensible though.
