    There may not be a greater coach in the history of college football. I cannot think of another coach that took a worse program to as much success as Snyder. IIRC, K-State literally was the worse D-1 program before Snyder, and the university was about to shut it down. Snyder turned the Wildcats in the NC contenders for a few years and consistently a Big 8 / XII power.

    /csb/ My Econ 100 prof played at K-State in the late 60’s when they were the worst team in the Big 8, maybe all of NCAA. Despite their shitiness (or maybe because?) he has amazing stories about orgies and ridiculous shenanigans during his recruiting visit. He also went to St. Mark’s, had scholarships to play in the Ivies but just wanted to play in the Big 8. /csb/

    She had zero people back up her story.  He has multiple people saying it didn't happen, including a close friend of hers.

     And based on this he's guilty?  Hope I never end up on a jury with some of you.

    Good lord how hard is it to understand that this isn't a court of law, it's a job interview for the most important job a lawyer can have.

     Now the mail fraud thing is serious shit.  Weird because I was reading an article about how even from the same pen company, ink in different parts of the country has a different “fingerprint” in it so that law enforcement can determine where it’s from in an investigation.  Kinda like printer toner.  I’ve been taking two pens from every hotel in forty plus states and a dozen countries since I was in elementary school.  I rotate a random number of them between office, home, car, and laptop bag.  Never using the same one for more than a few weeks.  And mixing in store boughts and web ordered pens as well.  /csb

    

    Jesus, are you planning on being the next Unabomber?  That's some weird shit.

  4. I feel like I’m the only one who really enjoys the German bunker building storyline. Probably because it’s the most direct tie to BB right now (other than Gus/Salamanca) and I think it’s well done. 

    All that being said, if they have an episode about a fly in the Germans’ “home” warehouse, I’ll have a problem...

    Valdez is filthy when he is on his game though. Keep him on a short leash, and he will be a great reliever. 

    I don't trust his control enough to come out of the pen with the bases jammed and needing a final out in the 7th during a playoff game.

    I heard some chatter on sports radio debating whether Framber or Sipp would make the playoff roster, and I thought it was a pretty stupid argument the way Sipp has performed this season.

    two of the dudes in my group are going decked out in the unbelievably obnoxious daly american flag pants, etc...  another is going full kit douche with the team's saturday pinstripe pants and everything.  it is going to be glorious. 

    i intend to try and get rahm and poulter to completely lose their shit.

    I’m so jealous. I was at Hazeltine all 3 days, my first Ryder Cup. I certainly intend on attending one in Europe. 

  7. This is shocking. Every facet of the team has just dominated since we went down 14-3. 

    I’d have thought that a team led by a man with as much hubris as Herman has might not respond when kicked in the teeth. I stand very much corrected.
