  1. Cregger said Magnolia was a big influence on this movie. He said Magnolia showed him you can make bold epic movie that don't apologize or try to walk the audience through the meaning of it. There's also the trait that both share a story of interconnected characters. Paul is basically John C. Reilly's character even down to being a cop with a moustache. I've seen it twice now and enjoyed it just as much the 2nd time because you pick up on subtle things that you gloss over like Gladys being with Alex when the cops are talking to him early on.
  2. Well we certainly don't want the Justice Department to be weaponized like it was under Biden. Oh wait, what Trumps does makes no difference to hypocritical assholes.
  3. The Cracker Barrel stuff is amusing to me because it's just another in a long line of examples of how fragile white MAGA is. BUT THE LEFT IS ANGRY AT AMERICAN EAGLE!!! Are they? I think most people don't give a shit. But the right is surely up in arms at this Cracker Barrel redesign and what it's supposed to mean. Such massive pussies.
  4. They'll flip Arkansas. Arkansas knows getting Texas as a permanent rival is all that matters so they'll play ball with playing in DKR for 2 straight years.
  5. Mizzou for sure. The 3rd will be interesting. I don't think it will be Arkansas though that makes sense for regionality. I feel it will be someone who doesn't have a good 3rd rival like South Carolina.
  6. We're booked up through 2029. I doubt we drop anyone. 2030/2031 P4 home and home matchup will be interesting to see who we can get. Washington or Oregon would be great. Clemson, Florida State would be fun ACC opponents but I'm not sure we'll see any ACC teams that have an existing SEC rival. I doubt we dip into the Big 12 for a while and I'd imagine BYU or Colorado would be the choice. 2026- Texas State, Ohio State, UTSA 2027- New Mexico State, Michigan, UTEP 2028-Louisiana Tech, @ Notre Dame, UTSA 2029- ULM, UTEP, Notre Dame 2030-UTSA only 2031- UTEP only 2032-@Arizona State only 2033-Arizona State only
  7. I guess with no Saban to scare people, ESPN is now calling the shots. So LSU would get Bama, aggy, and Ole Miss?
  8. 5M per team per year supposedly will be kicked in by ESPN.
  9. We'll play one Texas system school (UTSA/UTEP and either is already scheduled till 2031), one FBS either from Texas or a bordering state, one P4.
  10. aggy will get Texas, LSU, and Arkansas. Arkansas and aggy had the 10 game series at JerryWorld. It's not someone that should scare aggy since I can't recall Arkansas ever getting a win against them in this series. They have SWC history. It's also regional. OU will be the interesting one to watch. Texas and Mizzou is a given. The 3rd is harder to figure out. It will be another team that doesn't really have a firm 3rd traditional rival. I'm betting either South Carolina or Florida. LSU will get aggy, Ole Miss, and Mississippi State. I don't think the SEC is going to pair Bama and LSU. Bama won't want that since they already have Tennessee every year. Bama should get Miss State, Auburn, and Tennessee. I think this is a good gauge of what rivalries will stick around. https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/news/college-football/southeastern-conference-most-played-rivalries-all-time-entering-2019/
  11. Who else would we be tied to if not Arkansas and aggy, two historic rivals that we have a hell of a lot more history with than anyone else. LSU? Mizzou? Alabama? None of that was happening nor did it make sense for that to be the case.
  12. ESPN paying 5M to each school per year
  13. This is what SI predicted back in 2023. Missouri: Oklahoma, Arkansas, Vanderbilt Arkansas: Missouri, Texas, Ole Miss Texas A&M: LSU, Texas, Mississippi State Texas: Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Arkansas Oklahoma: Texas, Missouri, Florida LSU: Ole Miss, Texas A&M, Alabama Ole Miss: Mississippi State, LSU, Arkansas Mississippi State: Ole Miss, Kentucky, Texas A&M Alabama: Auburn, Tennessee, LSU Auburn: Alabama, Georgia, Vanderbilt Vanderbilt: Tennessee, Auburn, Missouri Tennessee: Vanderbilt, Alabama, South Carolina Kentucky: Mississippi State, South Carolina, Georgia Georgia: Auburn, Florida, Kentucky Florida: Georgia, South Carolina, Oklahoma South Carolina: Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky
  14. 3 + 6 would be fantastic. Bama is probably out but a schedule of OU, aggy, Arkansas, Tennessee, Auburn, LSU, Ole Miss and Mizzou is pretty nice.
  15. Here you go. I'll PM it to you as well.
  16. Perhaps he's not the only one with mental health issues if you're posting this.
  17. Quinn Ewers is serious business?
  18. That's a great list. We haven't really looked east as she hasn't shown any interest. Cal Poly is a great school. My niece goes there. We'll also apply to the latter 4. So far we've got: Trinity, Colorado College, Colorado, Colorado State, UCSD, UC-Irvine, Cal Poly, San Diego St.
  19. This thread but in the form of a book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/222376640-enshittification
  20. Yes, we're planning to submit all applications before November 1st. We're not leaving anything to the spring other than a final decision. She has a deadline of getting the early draft of her essay to our college guy on Saturday. They'll meet next week to clean it up and work on other prompts. The Common app makes this so much easier than before. She's got most of the other portions done, it's just the essay that's hanging over her head right now. I hear you on the weather. That's the same objection I had to her being interested in Grinnell College in Iowa. That would be one where if she got in and wanted to consider it then we'd need to visit in January or February. Our plan is to go visit some of these if she gets in so she gets an idea of what reality is like at each of them.
