  1. Just long enough to engender both the possibility and the anxiety that the door is held for them, and then you promptly shut it right before they get there, because do your own work, asshole.
  2. Thats kinda funny. Because in other threads, many of you believe in permanent economic class entrenchment, and that the suggestion of even the possibility of upward mobility is a right-wing dog whistle.
  3. Thats clearly Italian
  4. People often talk up the hypothetical about whether they would get in the ring with a pro boxer for a million dollars. Still want to do it now? (nb he earned LOTS more than that)
  5. Yup. Remember the purpose of playoff is to determine competition-based champion. That a left-out TX or BYU could have destroyed JMU/Tulane, or even beaten Tamu/Bama doesnt matter. Decades of playoff history says their chances of winning subsequent games to take the cha, Yes. Reason for bye isnt out of motivation to reward certain teams. Its a consequence of supporting odd number of matchups from the 6 true qualifying teams. 8 is fine too. Obv football cant host a NCAA-like super tourney because the playoff would take forever due to nature of the sport. 6 or 8 teams keep it under 1 month.
  6. I think this is a fun one to show. If your goal is determining who is a champion from historical priors, 4 teams in contention is a solid cutoff. 6 is reasonable and is more commercial. Beyond that it's a statistical improbability and not worth consideration. Notes: -numbers are from AI -NCAAB doubles the conference count of other sporting leagues so seed count is repeated -NFL is probably best comparison because its a single-game format and is literally the same sport
  7. One thing that bothers me as someone who doesn't play musical instruments is watching live performances and not seeing the action sync with the sound. I get that electric instruments have reverb and delay, so the action of a guitarist strumming doesn't match up 1:1 like watching a bassist pluck or a drummer drum, but in my mind it still never jives. For example, the woman in this video is hitting a digital drum pad thing, and I like the song, but my brain keeps on screaming at me "her instrument is fake, shes not playing anything"
  8. 6 teams. #1 and #2 gets a bye. Nobody cares whether it's 11-1 TAMU or 11-1 MISS that gets the snub at #7.
  9. you cant spell oklahoma without ou
  10. That was a serious shot. He gets props for literally taking one on the chin. Boxing didnt exactly have a sterling sporting reputation to have lost anything from that freak show taking place. It’s entertainment and you all watched and talked about it. Myself included. On a related note Jake’s former opponent Tyron Woodley took another L from 50 year old fellow former UFC champ Anderson Silva
  11. Motherfuckers who drive along the freeway shoulder during gridlock traffic. I support laying out puncture strips and destroying all their tires on the 1/1000 chance it affects someone with a legitimate emergency like a hospital delivery.
  12. Was at a museum today trying to check out some serious paintings and half the time, the artworks were blocked by instagramnistas (who were 6.5/10 tops, to be generous) posing in front of them. And not like, heres a quick selfie of me in front of the Caravaggio, but more like, let me spend 5 minutes contorting and posing myself while my cuck bf snap off 30 perfect shots. They should shoot these people on-sight.
  13. You know what this guy would do? Drink Michelob Ultras:
  14. need to try this in europe as i just did a 3 day, 27 road-hour slog. spotted a guy with a clever camera-defeat plate and another…vanity plate?
  15. tried to find my favorite islays but none available. grabbed talisker 10 for myself and a buffalo trace as a gift for a friend. sipping on white wine tho
