thanks guys. The links here did help.
Once the real LB coach is hired, of course we expect that we shall see you do your Paul Harvey imitation, "and now you know, the rest of the story."

Any idea when we start to see the new livery releases?
Interested to see how Aston Martin incorporates British Racing Green into their design.

Shelton Felton? Really?
Too much like Thurman Merman.

After 2 sets of punt exchanges, Dickson is plus 31 in yards, and the Rams punter is no slouch.
Don't sell the Rams' punter short, he's a tremendous slouch.

Shitty fajitas? In France we would have danced barefoot on jagged rocks for even a shitty fajita. They had "Mexican" restaurants but near as I could puzzle out, they were run by Indians (b/c spicy is spicy, right?) who had somebody cooking a half-slap version of Cuban food.
I mean, you can find French food in Mexico. Froggy ain't even tryin.
Well, why in the hell don't we find the Surly 1%ers, pitch them the investment idea and open a restaurant in Paris called, "Surly's Tex-Mex With An Attitude." Throw down some authentic Tex-Mex, killer margaritas, franchise the hell out of it then in 3 - 5 years sell it off for a bundle!
Why not? Isn't it a great time to open new restaurants?

Are there pics out there, or is this your prediction? I agree though ... shitty, uninspiring team. I don't see them being on the grid past next year as Haas.
I have not seen any pics and don't know anyone on the inside. Just random speculation.
It's livery last year looking a lot like the old John Player Lotus looked sharp.
They're an embarrassment.

And HAAS once again. with a craptacular livery ... no rhyme, no reason, no identity. As vacuous and forgettable as the team itself.

I posted this in another Covid thread about a month ago "Obesity is an incredibly complex process and the variables that play into it are mind boggling (bottling). Y’all make some good points but it’s going to take a hard, substantial, multidisciplinary national effort to reel this problem back in. And yes, we have to get big food out of our government (no CR)."
Here's some more points. I do have an area of my practice dedicated to obesity medicine.
1) For Covid, obesity makes a hard curve towards morbidity and mortality at a BMI of 40 and follows a curve almost exponentially the higher the BMI goes.
2) Insurers and the government don't pay for obesity. I can't use a primary code for obesity for many insurances even though it is the primary driver of all the other patient's health problems. It has started to change a little.
3) This country only continues to get heavier. Maybe 50% obesity rate (BMI >30) in adults by 2030.
4) The number of direct and indirect health problems that arise from obesity is staggering. Think of it as a metabolic (diabetes), physical (sleep apnea) and psychological (depression) disease process. The parenthetical diagnosis I listed are a few of hundreds related to obesity.
There are posters on this thread arguing about which is worse, Covid or regular mortality from obesity. Y'all are both right. Think of Covid as the canary in the coal mine or an accelerant to expose the epidemic of obesity in our country. We aren't going to change the course of these complications overnight but we are in a spiral downward as a country if we don't find the discipline to change it now.
Our news media isn't going to address it because they will lose ratings. Our politicians won't either because they are ignorant to the problem and they don't want to get voted out by a significant portion of the population who doesn't want to be called "fat". We really need to start at very young ages to tackle this problem because if you are obese going into your teenage years then chances are you stay that way. But there are things we can do now to get people healthier. Unfortunately, our healthcare system is not set up to tackle this problem on a national population based scale.
There is a lot of good points in this post.
I have been immersed in the eating disorder community for the last 4 years. And let me tell you bruthas, there is a fair amount of absolute craziness abound.
There is some pushback on BMI, that it is outdated and is not an accurate measure of health. To a certain extent, that is correct. But, the anti-BMI crusaders cannot come up with a valid, objective measure to replace it.
Then, there is the Health at Every Size (HAES) crowd. Good Lord! Try to discuss intelligently with them, their views and they burn down your house.
I do know in the next 3 - 4 months, a research study is going to be released showing a genetic predisposition to eating disorders among some obese people ... but not all obese people. That is going to start a shit storm.
But, genetics cannot be ignored when discussing obesity.
Now... continue on with the Surly type discussions.

Ok. Moist cunt. There I said it.
I have thought for the longest time that the word, "moist" is a very awkward word. It just sounds ... oogey. It doesn't have the decency to become all the way wet. But it certainly is not dry either. It exists in that grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. Moist just needs to decide one way or another. Commit dammit.

I don't think the song should be cancelled. I think it should be left to the students to decide whether they want to participate.
Brain development and the biology of the brain are fascinating studies. I have been doing a fairly deep dive into the biology of the brain as it impacts certain mental illnesses.
This article goes into the biology of the brain of adolescents and the manner it impacts decision making, being responsible for conduct, maturity and public policy.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2892678/
There is a lot of science on the brain and decision making. And the decision a 20 year old makes on an issue like this very well could be significantly different after they have had more life experience, when the brain has fully developed biologically, when they come to understand that the world around them is very different than the sheltered bubble of college life.
If a student chooses not to participate, that is fine for them. But, they also have to understand that that decision may have ramifications down the road... will alums be as likely to hire them? Especially if those alums are more conservative. Are they more likely to obtain employment with liberal think tanks if their decision not to participate is an outward manifestation of their mature moral and ethical views of society?
Participate, don't participate. Fine. But, know there are probably going to be consequences of such a choice. And if you do not like those consequences, you brought them on yourself.
Lecture over. Lid out.

First black member of LHB 1962
Only black drum major 1990
WHOA! So the band integrated 8 years before the football team? And the band had its first black drum major 24 years before we hired our first black head football coach?
ENOUGH!
Obviously, DKR was a blatant racist! His name must immediately come off the stadium!
Those national titles won under him must be eradicated! We must forfeit every game won under DKR!
In fact, since it took us until 2014 to hire our first black football coach, even after the LHB had its first and only black drum major, that means the entire football program is steeped in racism and must be dismantled completely. We need to forfeit every single victory the football team has ever won and start from scratch! No anglos allowed on the new team of course.
To make sure we have completely eradicated all vestiges of racism, we will not resume football activity for 5 years to insure that all traces of whatever residual racism remains is erased.
The band will ONLY play songs originally written and played by Black Americans or other BIPOC entities.
For any future band member, they will have to take a "Woke Appreciation Test," so that we are assured that only the most progressive, young student minds are shaped to think alike, act alike and will support the most liberal, future agendas.
For any female Anglo who passes the "Woke Appreciation Test," any Black student in the LHB shall have the right of "prima nocta." The trouble with Anglos are there are too many of them! If we can't get them out ... we'll breed them out.
Problems solved.

The problem is ... for this person born in 1958 ... your desires and urges remain the same. But, the women keep getting younger and younger every year.
And then you find yourself in the Creeper Zone.
Blue hair and wrinkles boys ... blue hair and wrinkles. (sigh)

We can all shout after a loss “that’s alright! That’s ok! You weren’t gonna beat them anyway!” As they are jogging off the field.
So, in 1979, the University of Pennsylvania went on an improbable run to make it to the Final Four in basketball. They beat the likes of the #1 seed in their bracket, North Carolina and Syracuse.
In the Final Four game, they ran into Michigan State. State had some guy named ... Earvin Magic Johnson.
Well, Penn's run was over at halftime with the score of 50 -17. But then. In the second half, as the Spartan fans were gloating, allegedly a cheer began to come from the UPenn student section. It grew in intensity and volume. So, what was being yelled out?
That's alright! That's ok! You're gonna work for us someday!
No retort to that gentlemen.
