    The concern is that he’s got a much bigger following of the military than Trump did here, so it very well could succeed. The bells are sounding loudly now so the whole world will know that when he does pull that bullshit, it’s precisely and exactly because he’s a fucking loser, a fucking pussy and corrupt as shit. I’ll be pleasantly surprised if Lula actually serves a single day as president.
  2. Just more if the same. Motherfuckers drinking the haterade. And if any of them truly believe there’s a more elevated purpose to it than that, they’re the type that enjoy the smell of their own farts. Right I mean it’s posh and trendy to call him old and they look at you weird when your reply is “yeah he’s old, and he’s still better than whoever your QB is.” The sports media, in their fervid desire to stir up the hysteria, is trending in this direction that suggests we need to start comparing Aaron Rodgers to TB12. Why? Because they did so wonderfully comparing Peyton to him? That’s not a knock on Peyton either but it’s kinda the point too: you’re gonna have a hard enough time saying Rodgers compares to Manning…and some want to commit the egregious breach of etiquette by skipping him over and going straight to Tom? Man, kill that fuckin noise.
  3. I wouldn’t bother. You’re responding to someone with chronic cases of confirmation bias and the Dunning Kruger effect. His whole gimmick on this thread has been project, deflect, and distract. I’ve got him on ignore because well, that’s just what I do when I detect posters with a determination to not understand anything or not accept any information that contradicts what they think they know. It’s the same reason I won’t discuss biological evolution with someone from Answers In Genesis. That’s the level of fanaticism you’re dealing with here. It’s not that what he says about this topic (and many others) are laughably, indefensibly, and inexcusably wrong; it’s that he and people like him are bound and determined to stay that way. There are people on this planet who are into that kind of thing, and it’s precisely and exactly because that’s the kind of thing they’re into. That’s not to say that there are 0 people on the other side of this issue worth speaking to and even attempt to persuade. I once did that with a person who previously believed that almost all abortions in the US were performed late term. I merely showed him the data that conclusively shows the exact opposite is true and he’s now pro choice. Those things are possible with reasonable people. They call them reasonable people because their standard on persuasion is “give me a reason to believe you and I will believe you.” By and large, the pro-life movement does not fit this description.
  4. Oh he can’t even half-assed recite the actual history of the Israel-Palestine conflict. What would make anyone with an IQ above room temperature believe he could even locate Rwanda on a map?
  5. Steamed hams
  6. I mean I’ve yet to read/hear him say something that cannot be filed under “stupid person’s idea of a smart thing to say.”
  7. Oh it was even worse. He tried tying it to grocery costs as well. Ok so governments the world over have the ability to negotiate drug prices, but even the most lunatic dictatorships would struggle to control grocery costs…and this dumb motherfucker wants to lay that all on the Biden admin. And grocery costs have absolutely nothing to do with “eating better.” Eating healthy on a budget is more than doable. His stupid ass is conflating two things and he cannot for the life of him complete a syllogism. Also, have I been asleep for a few decades? When the fuck did this common ignorant slob become an expert dietician? This motherfucker is notorious for having a really weird diet. He says he has one meal a day and is vegetarian except for the occasional indulgence of chicken. Ok that works for people with the kind of metabolism he has. Essentially he’s telling people to be born with better genes. But he doesn’t see it that way because, again, the whole ignorance thing. It’s the same reason that Ben Agajanian was the world’s greatest kicking coach and Doug Pelfrey was a fucking joke at it: because some people recognize that simply saying “just do it exactly like I did it when I was younger” isn’t actually teaching people anything. If we could all play basketball “exactly like” Michael Jordan, doesn’t anyone think at least some of us would have? Telling people to eat better would obviously go a long way in preventing Type II diabetes. But to treat/manage already existing insulin dependent Type I? No, you’re gonna kill someone if you use a microphone to tell such people “just eat like I do,” and for that matter, the same applies to people who already are Type II diabetic.
  8. I wish I could say I don’t believe this but the problem is I totally believe this
  9. Assault? They’re barely touching the very northern tips where Market Street was the big dog. That’s not to say they won’t expand (and I’d gladly welcome that) but there’s a reason they didn’t start in the downtown area…or inside the 635/20 loop…or south of the GBT…or even south of 121.
  10. It’s the same principle as “Don’t Whiz on the Electric Fence.” They wouldn’t need a rule about it unless it either was a problem in the past or someone (ahem) had recently been threatening to do it. Far be it from me to ever suggest Officer Dingleberry would ever threaten to do anything, but you know the old saying: tell your therapist you’d like to have a shootout with the police and the sky is the limit.
  11. No she didn’t. She was merely moving down a pathway that had already been paved by their beloved St. Reagan
  12. I haven't posted anything this year, and for good reason. I do intend on posting a full season report card at the end of the year, but none of this weekly shit. I will say that a preliminary look at Saturday's game does suggest a grade of 44/50. Offense 19/20, Defense 16/20, ST 9/10. That's all I'll say on it for now.
  13. Generally speaking he does but not to the point where he’d refuse to consider recruiting a particular QB on grounds of “he’s too good of a runner.”
  14. Hell even on that third down on the opening drive where Ewers checked down to RoJo, Worthy was wide open deep down the left sideline.
  15. Tiger Ellison would have a 36-hour erection watching this offense. The use of motion, the same blocking, the mirroring of passes to runs, the RPO’s, the general utilization of space and the pass plays that are meant specifically to pick on precisely one defender (i.e. that shallow levels play with JT and whoever runs slightly deeper than him and the play with those two vertical stems that, in this case, kept resulting in those catches by Whittington), etc. It’s all there. If you’re a prospective Texas opponent, you’d better hope like hell that Steve never finds a true dual threat QB because at that point it’s just basically cheating.
  16. Well yeah, but people are into that kind of thing because that’s the kind of thing they’re into.
  17. It could very well be. They picked a shitty time to hire Venables with the looming SEC relocation and all that. That team is gonna have a hard enough time beating those lower East division teams.

  21. Right behind the interviewer. You’ll see when he steps to his right at his beginning
  22. Ten years ago on the old pre-scat shaggy site, I posted the DMN article commemorating pop999's (and our old Okie neighbor's) streak of 50 consecutive Texas-OU games attended. https://www.dallasnews.com/news/2012/10/14/texas-ou-fans-from-park-cities-mark-50-years-of-a-friendly-rivalry/ Yes I'm aware of the DMN paywall. A year later, HLN did a piece on them on Robin Meade's show in the morning. Before I post it, let me explain the following: A preemptive "fuck you" to anyone who gives me shit about wearing a red shirt to this. I was given the wrong time for arrival and had no time to change out of that work shirt, which was for Gold's Gym in Garland. This interview was being shot from a bar on Ross and 75. When I was asked if I was coming, I had to cancel my next two PT sessions, jump into my 2008 Mustang and drive all the way from Belt Line and Garland Road to this spot. I had 27 minutes to make this drive of 16 miles on city streets. Not an easy task. I sped, ran red lights, whipped a quick left turn in front of oncoming traffic to get into the parking lot merely 5 minutes before this live shot took place. Anyways, here it is: 1210468_781166065360_997522655_n.mp4 Now for the rest of the story: Ten years later, both streaks (as well as my own of 31 as of tomorrow) remain miraculously intact. I say "miraculously" because we did manage to get in for the 2020 COVID game, and that was no easy task, either. Pop999 does have the tiebreaker on Beamer by virtue of the fact that we both went to the 2018 Big 12 Championship game while he did not, so his streak is restricted to Cotton Bowl games only. Of course, those are the ones that matter. Anyone who's been to at least 3 of these games can attest to how both unique and special every one of them is, win or lose. Here's to hoping the 60th turns into the most special for him.
  23. I like you a lot less than I like them for making me thinking of something nice to say about them. That count?
