  1. Seems weird to DFA Urias if we knew this was coming the next day.
  2. Thanksgiving being in pool season will take some getting used to.
  3. Look, we know you read slower than most, but you're gonna FREAK when you see who else is mentioned in these emails.
  4. Hypothetically, what would happen if a bunch of people started dressing up as ICE agents and just began barking conflicting information at everyone and turning the scene into chaos? ICE has already made it clear that they don't feel a need to identify themselves, so how could anyone know for sure who is impersonating who?
  5. I guess I'll attempt to offer a little nuance to the conversation. 10 months ago, I had zero doubts that Sark was THE guy. Our teams looked tough and prepared. Our roster decisions made sense. All of the off-the-field money stuff seemed in order. There's a reason so much of the blame for not winning it all fell on Quinn, and that's because pretty much the rest of the program looked exactly like you would want a championship team to look. Were there areas that weren't perfect? Sure, but there's rarely a "perfect" college football team. Hell, Ohio State fans were ready to push Day out the door last December. But something changed in the offseason. The team this year does NOT look the same, nor does the coach. Either our QB looks like he has never thrown a football before or our WRs act like double amputees or our OL acts like a bunch of matadors or our secondary looks like swiss cheese. Just not a single cohesive performance all season. To be very clear, this is NOT the same look that Sark's other teams have had. Acting like he's the obvious problem that we should have all seen coming is dishonest at best. Something is different this season. If there's a way to get the program back to how it felt 10 months ago, then I'm on board. But if whatever happened is permanent and if this is the new reality, then he's got to go or we are just delaying the inevitable.
  6. Aside from the obvious note that one is nearly 20 years younger than the other, Bobby pretending to not understand the reason why a group of college athletes might relate to Terry Joseph better than Duane Akina is a choice.
  7. Before the season, someone asked me my prediction for the year. Told him that this shit is all unpredictable, but missing the playoffs would be a disappointment. Five SEC teams will be in the playoffs and we, the preseason #1, will not be one of them. Unmitigated disaster.
  8. "Don't waste your time looking into me" is definitely the battle cry of the innocent.
  9. coming soon to 40 acres near you.
  10. The dejected "... not really" response made me laugh out loud.
  11. What frustrates me is that most of the Trump supporters I know would never tolerate Trump as a coworker or neighbor or family member. Yet, because of team politics, they’ve got undying devotion to him as President. It’s insane.
  12. I’ve never really believed these global cabal conspiracy theories, but holy fuck how did this guy literally know everyone.
  13. It's been touched on in this thread, but what gets me even more than the caving is the complete messaging failure. EVEN IF it was predetermined that Dems were going to end the shutdown, there is a smart way to communicate it. "Democrats are ensuring that nobody suffers during the holiday season but will renew the fight for your rights in January" or some shit. Instead we get "standing up to Trump didn't work." Pathetic.
  14. Would it make you feel better or worse to learn that the number was much greater than 8, these were just the 8 that were strategically selected to minimize blowback?
  15. It's a shame that none of the Inept Eight have access to the internet or this would be very embarrassing for them.
  16. The fact that this is even a headline shows how far we’ve already fallen.
  17. A lot of really important people thought THIS GUY was exactly who Hillary needed to get over the finish line.
  18. Yep. Why did you put us through all of this if you weren’t gonna get anything out of it?
  19. Given what's about to go down over the next few weeks/months, the leopards are gonna feel like they just sat down at Fogo de Chao.
  20. It's like deja vu with the Trump shooter. The shooting itself is used as a huge rallying point. The prosecution is apparently not important. Why the hell do I know more about the fucking DC sandwich guy than either of these shooters?
  21. Again, a two-week public ad blitz broadcasting all of this shit and the Democrats could turn the entire public narrative against these fuckers. Go for the jugular.
  22. I mean, that's clearly just three pieces of 8.5x11 printer paper taped on the wall, right?
  23. My favorite baseline is still: Pretend you were given $100,000 the morning of January 1, 2000. And then again on January 2, and January 3, and then again every single morning after until today. You still would not have accumulated a billion dollars, and Elon Musk's net worth is more than 500 times that. Tell me that won't get voters out for blood.
