Liz Warren should serve as America’s first Secretary of Fixing All The Stupid Shit Greedy Assholes Did To Our Country.

I feel like I'm getting a feel for diciphering Carter Karels coded messages being sent into the atmosphere for the outside world while captured deep behind The Elk's occupationist lines. I've spoilered the full post from a Wednesday practice update, but here are highlights, as far as I know them from reading his code plus what my friends are hearing or knowing as well: -They're starting to softpedal the notion that Marcel Reed is a better fit at QB for Klein's offense. I'm starting to see this pop up from both mods and also posters known to have some access. The logic is as basic and stereotypical as we would expect (which does make the cynic in me pause) - they don't have speed at the skill positions and they're going to need a mobile QB to make the offense click. Klein wants to run the QB, a lot, and they cannot comfortably do that with Weigatron. This is something to keep an eye on. If Liucci starts touting Reed before the ND game as well, the dam is breaking. -In spite of all of their efforts regarding bringing in guys from the portal, they're about to be playing Sanford as the LB next to York. York is undersized and slow. Sanford is very fast but, if prior reports have any merit, tends to just run around a lot. -Another similar instance is at CB, where the second starter is lining up to be Jayvion Thomas, rather than any of the portal transfer such as Ricks (5 star) and Lee (the esteemed KSU savior). There is no spin capable of washing off the stains of the claims made for the others. Hell, Liucci was talking all of them up on the radio yesterday. Right. -They really, really lack offensive speed and they're starting to realize it. One guy is yearning on their boards for the tiny true freshman to play and he has trouble finding the fields for practice. None of the older WRs can beat anyone deep or out of a cut. Actually the one guy who can do that isn't close to healthy and might not play this year (the transfer from one of the FCS schools they were touting in the spring). They have no one at TB that can get around the edge consistently. -Gabriel Brownlow Dindy has shown up healthy for the first time in his career. These guys seem to believe that that pussy will stay that way. Color me dubious. -Depsite DJ Hicks having the 5 star pedigree and being paid $1M per year, Regis is outplaying him. Karels could never say this, but Hicks is the definition of "dead money" if he's not starting and playing regularly. Elko wants to play Regis. This is a coaching/booster conflict waiting to happen and worth watching this season. -Outside of the QB hinting, the OL update is the biggest and funniest shit I've seen from them. ---Fatheree is nowhere to be found in the starting lineup and may not be running second team at RT. He still "isn't the same" since his mysterious injury like 18 months ago. I think this guy is being pushed through the program to get his degree and move on and they'd rather not have him publicly leave as another OL bust. ---The presumptive starting RT is the former KU guard that transferred in after being processed by Leipold. This is really fucking hilarious. ---They "need" Bisontis and Nabou to be badasses at both G positions because of problems at RT and C. This OL is going to be one of the worst OLs in P4 and they're going to get QBs killed. Defenses will not have to play off the ball with concern toward anyone getting behind them or any TBs beating them to the edge.

GTA: Russia "... enemy equipment."

Boom

Sometimes they give the Medal of Freedom to a humble guy who's not expecting it:

I like to get out in front of things.

I know it's gonna never happen, but is there ANY way they can drive an Abrams across the border, shoot a round, take a pic then scoot back? I'm a goddamn taxpayer and I wanna see my stuff fighting in Russia like God intended.

Deconstructed hot dish: a bowl of cream of mushroom soup, some tater tots, a wedge (ok maybe an entire wheel) of cheddar cheese, and a scallion.

A watermelon and chicken taco sounds like something Torchy's would serve as Taco of the Month.

Bobby with some good RB news: I am told that Texas has been very happy with the work of Jerrick Gibson at running back. Very happy. He has stepped up and is being more and more reliable in each practice and is working to understand pass protection at the college level more and more. At this stage, we expect Gibson to have a role on this team out of the gate. Now don’t get carried away. I’m not talking about starting or being the premier back. But his work as a strong, smart inside runner has been on display. For a team that needed someone to step up following the injury to Cedric Baxter, Gibson has answered the call to this point.

I posted this a few days ago in the lol thread.

I’m all for the down payment assistance but I’d like for it to exclude people who buy expensive cars or trucks costing $80,000+ and then complain they can’t afford groceries and other shit because their car payments are $1,200+ a month.

I like Baxter, but he wasn’t exactly Ricky Williams or Cedric Benson as a freshman anyway. I think Gibson will give us a reasonable approximation of Baxter. And since I have convinced myself that Blue is basically Reggie Bush, we should be OK at RB.

I posted this update in the aggie 2025 recruiting thread too, as I can't figure out which thread has more people interested in the actual 2024 aggie season versus just the ongoing banter about aggie stupidity and such, so for those interested in a team update from 247: I feel like I'm getting a feel for diciphering Carter Karels coded messages being sent into the atmosphere for the outside world while captured deep behind The Elk's occupationist lines.

Liucci was on Off Campus yesterday with Hester and EJ Manual. It was quite the hoot. Liucci took turns: pimping the secondary as a strength, downplaying the loss of Reuben Owens as a nonfactor, touting the talent on the OL, lauding The Elk and his herd as the perfect salve for their ails from the impish and clearly (Looch thinks that anyone paying attention “knew” that Jimbo just wasn’t getting it done) incompetent Bilbo Aggins, and, of course, preaching the virtues of Weigatron as a Heisman candidate. The highlight for me was when he named the LSU game as the game this year that all of the aggies are circling.

This gives me an idea. Biden tells Trump he is getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom and will leave with a pardon. At the moment pictured above, Biden strangles the fucker till he shits Big Macs. Banner unfolds "Presidential immunity Bitches!"

I've seen a lot of discussion of the Seym River being used by Ukraine as a natural barrier to both force out Russian forces and defend the captured territory. Sure makes the HIMARS loss more palatable if this pans out. Green below is territory not yet captured.

If that did play a part, and the "last straw" was Ponder joining in on the cyberbullying dogpile of a female boxer in order to push a culture war in a country that the boxer has absolutely nothing to do with, and then refusing to apologize when their assertions about the boxer were proven to be completely unfounded and wrong... ...then it's pretty hard to feel sorry for her.

Here’s the thing they’re not discussing: Ffrench has around 20 family members in Baton Rouge. Some of them are apparently directly attached to the mom in ways that a guy going to college isn’t going to relish. Getting a home cooked meal? Sure. Getting narced out to mom about girl chasing or being late to class, no fun. So, sure, I won’t be surprised to see him visit Baton Rouge again either. It’s a good reason to see family and catch a great CFB atmosphere. You all saw where LSU’s collective has hired a guy with the aspiration of raising $14M by next summer, right? They’re so far from NIL competitive in football that they don’t even know what tail to chase. I’m not saying Ffrench signs with Texas. I’m just saying that he is not signing with LSU.

This is part of the point. Demoralize them. Let them know that they're losing. They're losing in part because Harris has vastly more money to spend on ads than Trump does. These people view electoral politics as entertainment and sport. But if their team isn't winning, they're not going to show up for it in November. Because why would you bother showing up for a loser? Demoralize them now; they'll stay home in November.

The deduction is also regressive as hell. The amount of the benefit is proportional to the size of the loan and the taxpayer’s marginal rate, and it’s only worth claiming if itemized deductions exceed the standard deduction (which is more likely for those with high income). If you max out the deduction and are in the highest bracket, it’s a nearly $14k annual benefit. Over the life of a typical loan, the mortgage deduction is potentially a much bigger payout than a single $25k subsidy. At least for rich people who, of course, are usually the first to bitch about welfare and socialism.

I've got some fireworks saved back for that joyful occasion. I don't care if there's a burn ban on, I'm fixing a couple of nice ribeyes with baked potatoes, mushrooms, and asparagus, getting a bottle of the best champagne my poor ass can afford, feasting, then setting the fireworks off. If any of my neighbors don't like it, they can go shit in a hat.

The thing with tacos up here is that they are primarily a sour cream delivery device. People just struggle to admit that.

If you offended by the phrase “white guy tacos”, it’s because those are actually the only type of tacos you like and you’re self conscious about being made fun of for it now. White guys who like good tacos have been using the phrase “white people tacos” for years as a helpful way to know which establishments to avoid.

The thing about this latest fake outrage, to me, is that it makes no fucking sense. First, I'm not offended, because I'm a white guy and I like tons of spicy fucking shit. Second, when she says mayonnaise or tuna...she's listing bland things. How does that have anything to do with race? He is the one who volunteers White Guy Tacos. So I guess the white guy can't make fun of himself now? It literally makes no sense from any fucking angle.
