  1. Porter isn't going anywhere. He tried but he kept falling down every 3 yards or so and finally just gave up.

  3. look man, he is taking full stories and condensing them down to like 2-3 sentences. the reason i put his name on it is because i want people to know 1) this isn't me condensing it and 2) this isn't direct info from the site in question (typically) it is important that people understand the source and context. it is the same reason when i share comments from IT that i include the person who said it (Boyd, Cook, Nahlin, Wells) - and when people tell us what is said at 24/7 i 100% want to know if the person doing a prospect eval is EJ or Mike Roach. context matters. i spoiler it because i understand some people get worked up about how he does things and put zero value it. this way if you don't want to read it, you don't have to...it's easy, just don't click or put me on ignore.

  4. You're so extremely wrong it's not even funny. Porter was on the field for our final drive of the game. Here are three examples of him playing "significant" snaps and doing a really shitty job. Play 1: Texas is down 5. It's 2nd & 10, with 1:45 left. Porter is outlet man on the pass, but he runs way too far out on the route. Basically, he should have stopped when he turned around, but he keeps backpedaling while waiting for Sam. By the time the ball gets to him, he is against the sideline, and a single defender is able to drop him for a 2 yard loss. He runs a shitty route, and basically runs himself out of bounds/into a tackle. Play 2: It's the next play. Texas still down five. 3rd & 13. Porter runs the same route. He does a better job of not running himself out of bounds this time, and because of that, he's got a lot more space to work with when he gets the ball. Texas needs a first down here. But after making a pretty shitty attempt at a juke, Porter lets the first defender nudge him out of bounds. What an absolutely shitpile play this is. Basically the opposite of the LJH pass plays for 1 yard which turned into 15 yard gains because LJH didn't give up. Porter surrenders himself, forcing us into a 4th and 5, instead of fighting for extra yardage which could have made converting much easier. Nevertheless, Sam comes back the next play and converts the fourth down like a fucking boss. Play 3: Same drive. 2nd & 10. 1:17 left. Texas is in it's 5 WR look. Porter is split to the top of the screen. He's got no one over the top of him. He runs a 5 yard sit route. Sam puts a ball right on his hands, and Porter drops the freaking pass, because he totally sucks ass. That forces us into 3rd and 10 instead of 3rd and 4 or 3rd and 3. The next play, Maryland drops 8 defenders, because they know Texas has to throw the ball, and Sam throws his second pick of the game. So, yes. Porter played "significant" snaps in the Maryland game. And he totally shit the bed.

  6. George is still missing the point. The Dems aren't refusing to deal with Trump because he's failing to persuade them where a better politician would be able to. They're refusing to deal with Trump, as they should, because he's not someone anyone can actually make deals with: This is why they need to simply cut him out. The Dems should be repeatedly explaining this basic fact to the public, and putting pressure on McConnell to override Trump's veto on a bill his caucus already voted unanimously to pass. There is no deal to be had with Trump because he can't be trusted to honor the terms of any deal, regardless of its terms.

  8. She interned in Ted Kennedy's office. She may not have the expertise of Mitch McConnell, but she knows how Washington works. The problem with all of the quiet Dems who just get in and try to play the game is that their silence lets the Republicans dominate the message the American people hear from Washington. The Dems don't need every one of their representatives, certainly not a first-term one, to be experts at drafting complex policy legislation. But they need SOMEONE to effectively message liberal priorities, and she's the only one that has been able to do it. There are a few others that try (Ted Lieu and Brian Schatz are good), but for the most part nobody hears them because the media doesn't magnify their statements (and the right doesn't freak out in response to everything they say). If the Dems want to pass some sort of environmental reform bill to help combat climate change (or anything else), step one isn't drafting the perfect piece of legislation, step one is convincing a sufficient number of American voters that it's important and achievable. She's pretty good so far at step one. She doesn't have to be an expert at steps two and three. She's not the problem with the Democratic party. The problem with the Democratic party is the fucking geriatrics who are happy to continue sacrificing the health, well-being, and potential of normal Americans for the continued prosperity of a few entrenched industries because they're too afraid to rock the boat.

  10. He was widely ridiculed by most people on this board at the time as being overrated and a player we didn't really want. We celebrated when he went to aTm and we then backed into "the good moore." And now people want to talk about how he's a 4 star upgrade player, even though he's spent a year in a shitty program with a horrible secondary and couldn't contribute, spent a year in a shitty strength and conditioning program, will have to sit out a year, and will eat a scholarship for several years. How the fuck is adding a player we didn't want at the time a good idea now that he has a year less eligibility and has to set out? We're talking quality depth for fucking 2020? If we absolutely MUST, then take another mediocre DB now to RS in our system and let THEM be quality depth in 2020. At least then in a pinch they could be depth in 2019 if every one of our DBs gets struck with Polio, or we can start the clock on them and get them washed out even sooner.

  11. I'm thinking that throwing the ball three times to the running back on the final drive maybe isn't Porter's fault.

  12. The orange complexion with little white eyes. The tiny butthole mouth. The dainty baby hands. The ass that looks like two wooden barrels strapped together. The statuesque Slovenian whore wife. The elaborate hairdo that defies all geometry to hide another disastrous shortcoming. The neck that waddles like a tall stack of fried eggs. Transfers all of my personal failures in life to people with dark skin. Displayed his business genius by totally owning Gene Simmons and Gary Busey and Dennis Rodman in a fake boardroom on a stupid television show made for dumbasses. Totally owned another group of hapless morons with a fraudulent college and got busted for it. Drives a golf cart on the greens like a gentleman. Mocked a prisoner of war. Sexual assault. Constantly refused to pay his debts to people in an honest exchange of services. Fucked a pornstar who has freakish basketball sized tits. Multiple divorces. Constantly lies for no reason. Loves Jesus.

  16. That seems like a new precedent for being "soft on crime." Maybe every criminal should be allowed to correct any charge being brought by a county, state or federal prosecutor. From now on if someone gets drunk and goes on a vandalism spree they should be able to modify the language in their charge by changing the description from "smashed windows and spray painted 'fart' on a Chevy Tahoe" to "accidentally bumped windows with a steel pipe and indulged in perfectly legal artistic expression and the canvas just happened to be Dave's Tahoe."

  18. It's pretty incredible to think there's isn't ONE Republican in Congress that is willing to truly defy Donald Trump. I'd guess the majority have made good money, especially the older politicians that could retire and live off their savings. Or maybe return to a previous profession if they want to continue working. Not a single one is willing to say "fuck this guy", retire or lose re-election, and ride off into the sunset feeling they did the right thing. To set an example for their children or grandchildren. That's how corrupt our government and society has become. Yikes.

  21. Why do people think the percentage of black coaches should approximate the percentage of black players in a league moreso than the percentage of black people who follow the sport? Do they believe that being a good player generally means you're a good coach? That's been pretty roundly debunked by reality going all the way back to Ted Williams's disastrous managing career and even further. This is something that routinely happens, of course. There was a recent article that said the increase in black quarterbacks is still happening way too slowly because it has moved from 18 to 19 percent. Why is that viewed as underrepresentation when it's a higher percentage than they hold of the overall population? It's compared to the higher number, that being the percentage of black players overall in the NFL. This argument and debate is absolutely never going to go away because nobody has any idea what the right number should be. That includes me, of course. If a completely unbiased and blind computer selected the best 32 possible candidates for the position of NFL head coach out of the entire American population, how many do people think would be black? My instinctive guess would be 4, because that is roughly their population percentage. Right now there is one Latino head coach in the NFL, despite the fact that Latinos make up 17% of the American population (the USA is about 13% black). I would expect the computer to come up with 5 Latino head coaches. But that's not a big deal PR wise. Obviously the answer is that, yes, people instinctively compare the coaching and front office position percentages to the player percentages. Why is that simply accepted as the correct percentage that it should be compared to? Female referees are now a thing, and that seems reasonable as there is no reason they can't inherently officiate as well as men. So there's a disconnect there somewhere when the apparent assumption is that playing a game makes you better at coaching it but not officiating it. Are we trying to get the non-player position demographics to match the player demographics or not? The NBA has had some female assistant coaches come into the league recently, I believe. Why is that acceptable if the premise is that playing in the league should correlate to coaching in it?

  22. Finally got around to watching Derrian Brown's highlights, after you jagoffs spent the last 12 hours fellating him. I've gotta say. I was really blown away by how good he looked. Trying to come up with an exact comparison is hard, but my thought is that his film is like if Jim Brown, Jim Thorpe, Ricky Williams, Zach Evans, Adrian Peterson, and Emmitt Smith all jizzed into a cauldron, which was stirred up. Then an Asgardian Æsir exhaled gently over the concoction, before injecting it into Cronus's head, which was then severed. And that head was buried under an obelisk in Heliopolis. After emerging, reborn, from the dead, he wandered the planet until he learned the mystery of astral projection from perusing ancient religious texts scrawled upon palm leaves. Enlightened, he ventured from the east to the west, traveling through Europe before arriving in Spain, where he decided to don a mask and fight corruption, wielding a sword. He calls his masked, nirvanic persona The Zorro Astralan.

  28. I think that makes a lot of sense and helps explain the Trump WH hiring of 17 "real lawyers" this week. Apart from the tack of EP, interference by Acting AG, new AG, etc., the best insurance to limit legal meddling AND getting the meat of the report out is through sealed indictments. Currently, Trump is implicated by SDNY as "Individual 1" in the felony indictment of Cohen as the individual who knowingly ordered Cohen to commit said felony. Trump is a de facto co-conspirator in a felony for which Cohen is about to serve time in prison. Right there, in plain view. Now imagine a ream of unsealed indictments getting unsealed which take down most everyone around him including family members in a conspiracy to defraud the US, with Trump appearing throughout many of them as an unnamed unindicted co-conspirator. The depth of detail in the indictments could essentially render The Report inconsequential. And pardons ? Trump pardoning everyone for crimes in which he appears as a co-conspirator ? Trump's obstruction of justice probe will likely include evidence related to repeated public messaging involving implied pardon or clemency for co-conspirators to "be strong" and to not cooperate. How will his pardon power be implemented when he attempts to follow through with the very act for which may be accused to obstruct justice?

  29. "Mormon Marco" is unfair. Marco has been exceedingly concerned about each thing that has been concerning and I have confidence that he'll patiently wait for the next concerning thing that arises and he'll again not hesitate for one moment being concerned about whatever the next thing that is concerning. Over and over Marco has shown Florida that if something concerning happens he'll by God be concerned as shit about it.

  31. Booze took the edge off and helped me not be such an asshole. Frankly I again am reminded of myself when reading what you have to say, z. I think over 10 years (including college years), it went from drinking is all fun and every now and then I'd black out because I got so drunk and it was epic. No big deal, we're all partying it's college right? Evolving to, it is known that every now and then, I get way too drunk. Hey man pace yourself, remember last time in New Orleans when we had to dump you back off at the hotel (obviously I don't remember that). To, it being fucking tiresome, and people who I'm not super close with also know about how much I will drink. And then eventually downhill as I'm frequently drunk and more eager to drink than others and more of an asshole when I'm not and that perfect little window of just lubricated is ever smaller, to I'm withdrawing in on myself as I collapse like a supernova and people like family who don't see me sloppy drunk are alarmed because they don't see me at all. The thing that I've found in recovery is that I actually really like people. I'm confident about who I am and where I'm weak. I have a lot of empathy with people in general and assholes in particular. It's water off a duck's back (serenity prayer) if someone has an unreasonable gripe with me (or a task to complete if their gripe is reasonable, also serenity prayer). I don't go around getting mad, I go around connecting with people, deescalating problems, and nudging (or need be, pushing) everyone forward. There are people who don't like me, but it's astonishing how much better and how much more broadly I'm liked/loved in recovery than I ever was previously. Even in the early days.

  32. Sorry to use you as a guinea pig, but, "I'm a dick when sober, but not when I have had the right number of drinks" is pretty classic pre-alcoholic thinking. To a (wo)man, most of us felt somehow inadequate ("less than" is pretty good descriptor) when sober and miraculously adequate or better when drinking. A part of the steps, or recovery/sobriety however achieved, is a level of self-acceptance and "right-sizing" your expectations of yourself and others. This tends to result in a cease-fire if not outright peace with a world with which many of us thought we were perpetually at war.

  40. no, this is a terrible take. steve king is a fucking racist piece of shit. there is no room in the modern political climate for shitheads like him. the problem is, shitheads like him are the brand new republican base! they are not brand new, of course, as part of the republican base. they are brand new as the actual republican base. and he feels emboldened now. he's been around in his role for 5 years. he's made dog whistley comments in the past, and some not-so-dog whistley comments, but the point is that he's now emboldened to say "White nationalist, white supremacist, Western civilization — how did that language become offensive?” King said in an interview with the Times. "Why did I sit in classes teaching me about the merits of our history and our civilization?” you know what, steve? you limit that to "western civilization," you're actually alright? you still got yourself a dog whistle, but ain't none but your kind can hear it. which is the point. the problem is that the dog whistles have been since replaced with referee whistles. we can all hear it, dude. the difference is that you don't care anymore about it. you are emboldened. you think it is okay. because it is in today's republican party. and that's the reason that so many republicans have left he party, which has resulted in 90% support of trump in the party R. fuck you, party R.
