  1. Lot of guys have different opinions after the game than before.  Maybe doing what you speak of would be better without all the kneejerk emotional comments and seeing actual analysis commentary.   

    The game threads are a beating with the same guys commenting over and over how Ewers, Sark or Worthy suck.  Like their waiting for the game to go south so they can say "told you so."

    You guys did several years back with that one really good analyst.   Maybe have a team, some for different analysis and some surly humor tossed in?  Do a poll on who surly thinks would be best?

    Well, that and the fact that he and Jill are pulling in roughly $600K per year.  Their debt obligations, including mortgages, are roughly equal to one year's income.  That's pretty damn good.  Most Americans probably owe at least 3 years income in mortgage alone.

    That's why she's still working, to keep the upper hand on that leverage.  

    But I'm wondering at their age if they still have a mortgage.  

    Heck his book sales alone would buy quite a bit.

    So it’s really still supposed to be about Burisma? We are back to this? That’s all they have?

    ”you couldn’t afford the houses the Biden’s have on a senators salary!”. Yea guy that’s how money works.

    He has a nice house because he rode public transportation and saved his pennies.

    The dumb people need you to hit them over the head with it. 

     

    But the message has to be dumbed down.

    Oh I agree. Trump could literally beat an old woman to death on live TV and he'd still get 30% of the vote. 

    40% if she's a woman of color and on welfare.

  4. I have enjoyed watching Almost Paradise.  I like series that are filmed in and show different cultures, instead of what hollywood wants to portray them as.    

    And the female costar is very easy on the eyes.   Now and then she dresses down, which is an extra treat.   Standard cop detective type show, but not a bad watch.   And now and then they have some pretty decent guest stars.

  5. Yeah that Baylor game stunk.  On top of all that Teaff had money whipped Robert Strait to Baylor the year before and that left a really bad taste in a lot of folks' mouths.  

    The fix was definitely in that day to give Teaff a nice sunset to ride into.  Guy always reminded me of a lot of Osborne with his holier than thou airs.  

  6. One of the things that hurt us in 09 was Mack not getting Gilbert in more games for experience under fire.  I guess he was playing McCoy so much to help him get a Heisman.  

    I like the fact we are seeing Bush, Taafe and other non starters in the rotation.  This game like Rice had the feel of a scrimmage, like someone said above.  First half was a lot of trying out different personnel in different packages, plays.    Then in the second half, they quit experimenting and pinned their ears back.  Like a cat playing with a mouse, then getting to the kill part.

    I see that working for us, because you never know who is going to go down to injury, even short term.  Nice to have level 2 with experience beyond mop up.  Good to have these guys on game film for teaching purposes.   Makes it almost sound like our staff wants to develop players and leaders.

    So the day after he accepts a plea deal he rapes a girl?

    Holy shit. No words. 

    According the article, the incident occurred in late August, which makes this plea deal seem interestingly timed.

  8. UT 44-10.   RBs get 212.  Blue pops some long runs.

     

    The 44 score got me to thinking of Cole Pittman and his untimely death.  That NC game they held the score down to 44 in his honor and everyone held it there.  Hard to believe that was over 22 years ago now.  Certainly a "dusty up in here" memory.

     

  9. Seems to me that the Saudis trying to influence the elections by turning the tap down might bite them in the ass if Biden plays it right.  People are growing more weary and suspicious of O&G due to the extreme weather fluctuations.   Expose them to be the bullies they really are.  Talk about how they take all this wealth from across the world into their countries and build places like Dubai.   They don't even use any of that wealth to help their own countrymen, much less use any of it to help the rest of the planet.    How things like Dubai and Maserati golf carts are obtained on the backs of just not their people, but Americans too.  

    Get into the program to drill more here, to insulate us from this, while at the same time pivoting to better alternatives.   Instead of riding a dying horse until it collapses and we're stuck in the middle of the badlands, like Mad Max.

  10. What I always found fascinating was that if Casablanca was a song, it would have been a B side.   It was never expected to be so popular and classic.  Just another war movie.   

    And then they work so hard, put so much money into other shows that end up as clunkers.   Gives a little more whimsy to the idea of higher powers that oversee our art and literature.

    I don't think any of this can hurt a federal investigation much.  It has vast potential to hurt Paxton, though.

    About the worst thing going on here (for both a federal investigation and for Paxton) is that these people are getting their "stories" under oath, making it more difficult for them to credibly deviate from them in the future.  Because the stories against Paxton are pretty inherently factual, and the stories for are not, more damage is being done to Paxton than to future or current criminal investigations.

    So that explains why some of them have been picky with their responses, like all the hem-hawing about contacting the FBI.  Thanks very much for the explanation!

  12. I don't think good is dumb.   It just has this natural tendency to believe the best in people.  It's a lot like Trump getting elected, no one thought it was really possible until it happened.   Trump wasn't lying until he was.  Q-Anon was a small group of conspiracy nuts, until they weren't.  People look at this stuff and think there's no way this happens, especially when so much of what they are doing runs counter to what has been engrained in them as a Christian ethos.  None of this fits with that.  But they hear "christians" and assume that whoever uses that label is harmless.   

     

    Dumb might be the right word.  But when you tolerate others and their points of view, no matter how different from yours, that's more patriotic than dumb.  To let it get this far, to let these people keep building their machines, to not vote them out, that IS dumb, or apathetic.

  13. Paxton is still on the FBI hook, right?   Is there a chance anything said here can make that worse for him, or the FBI already knows anything that could come out during all this?   So he can be exonerated here, but still found guilty later on criminal charges, right?  Seems that would make our R senate idiots that will be sold as god fearing patriots?   Further evidence of the deep state tearing down our country?   

     

    Sorry, I'm obviously not a lawyer, so nice now and then to escape the impeachment foolishness and look at the larger picture.
