  1. He's not going to play. These reports are just classic smokescreen stuff.
  2. You've misunderstood the situation. Big Pharma "influenced" the administration in the same way that a local business "influences" its neighborhood mafia boss.
  3. Inboden claims that academia is a "political monoculture" and his proposed solution is to create new departments that will attract conservative scholars. I really wish one of the interviewers would have asked him, "why not just hire the best professors for the humanities/history/social science/poli sci/etc department, period? why do their political beliefs matter?". What he's proposing is essentially affirmative action places for people who weren't good enough to already be hired on anywhere.
  4. I’ve voted in enough Republican primaries in the last few years that I’ve ended up on a lot of phone and mailing lists. My mail man probably thinks I’m a total nutter. It makes for a very convenient voting guide though. I just make note of the most virulent shit I get and vote the opposite. Endorsement of Patrick/Paxton/Hotze/etc? Thanks for letting me know!
  5. Thanks for posting that. I find his assertion that universities "policing" themselves will keep outside political forces from interfering to be almost absurdly naive in this day and age. I suspect he actually knows better and is making that argument in bad faith.
  6. I've kind of come around to the idea that the Cowboys should re-sign Pickens. I mean, in a rational world, no, it makes no sense to have that much money tied up in 2 receivers when the defense needs so much help. But in the actual world that we live in, Jerruh is going to plead poverty when it comes time to sign free agents anyway, so we might as well have a fun offense. To put it another way, we can spend $30m and have Pickens, or we can spend like $6m on one year deals for past their prime defensive veterans while Jerry spends the other $24m on an Olympic swimming pool full of Johnny Blue. Neither one gets us any closer to the Super Bowl, but I know which one is more entertaining for me as a fan to watch.
  7. I went ahead and registered for this draw too. Ain't no way us little people are getting tickets, though.
  8. You're putting way too much thought into this. It's just a concept/money laundering scheme like their dumb "linear city" or whatever.
  9. The children didn't vote for anything. (99.99% chance it's fake, though)
  10. Seeing this thread bumped is like the dreaded commitment thread bump in the recruiting forum.
  11. I heard them playing KPop Demon Hunters in the background at one point
  12. Went to bed during the 9th and woke up to the realization that I missed a whole 2nd baseball game lol
  13. He’s too good
  14. I haven't watched South Carolina this year but how is that even fucking possible? Are they going with an innovative 3 lineman formation?
  15. I'm looking for a QB. Threw out a bunch of offers this week but didn't get any action.
  16. Big fuck you to Jake Ferguson. Guy is an absolute bum. Fools gold so far this year.
  17. I need someone to talk me out of betting my entire net worth on Vandy +2.5. We’re giving points in this game???? That’s insane. Literally fucking insane.
  18. Basically any WR is a must start against the Cowboys.
  19. So how is the grift structured on this donation to service members? $100 each? Something fucky is going on with that.
  20. Tick tock tick tock tick tock
  21. We are acting like there is 12 minutes left on the clock
