    Which is exactly Derkas point with the eyes...

    The DD bot isn't programmed for nuance. Where the fuck is the ignore feature? Help my Luddite ass out but I can't find it now.

    So the person who found it sent it to the original hider of the treasure for verification? They spent years deciphering a riddle, narrow it down to the exact space, find a treasure box filled with gold coins, and they're still not sure? It could be any of hundreds of randomly buried treasured in the Rockies, I suppose.

    Twicehorn is correct re lesser included charges, see https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/631.14 Just wanted to take my one and only opportunity to flex the fact that I'm probably the only licensed MN attorney on the surl. Though I'm not a criminal law guy so actually had to look this statute up once the debate started a couple of weeks ago.

    That's why everyone always associates Jerry Jeff Walker with New York and Willie with Baylor. I mean that's where they originated... Having said that, if it really is offensive to AA students, change it. I wasn't even aware of the possibility until a week ago.

    As long as we're listing terrible movies, the worst movie I ever saw in a theater I did not walk out of, but only due to extenuating circumstances. Halloween 1998. My then girlfriend had been bugging me to see Practical Magic with her. Being a red blooded American male, I of course refused. Texas played Nebraska in Lincoln that day and in a moment of euphoria while watching, I said if we win this game I'll go with you to see that stupid movie you want to see. Ricky goes for 150, major hits Mcgarity on 4th down, and 2 hours later I'm in a theater watching a pile of shit and questioning my life decisions. I experienced the highest of highs and the lowest of lows on that day.

    Nobody?

    Well, apparently you've never been to a prison rodeo.

    I'm going to start using the term virgin at a prison rodeo, and I don't care if it's cultural misappropriation. Where the fuck have I been in this sheltered life that I've never heard this saying?

    Nobody was more disappointed to find out the guy was Hispanic than Hugo. I guess it's back to the comforting environs of the cloak room for now...

    Reminds me of Michael Scott talking to Oscar- Um, let me ask you, is there a term besides "Mexican" that you prefer? Something less offensive?

    I was seated behind 2 African American gentlemen that left shaking their heads after about the 26th racial slur.

    Still haven't finished it but not Spike's best work IMO. How many times has the question "you know who went to Morehouse?" been answered with Edwin Moses and not MLK? I suppose if you're about to run hurdles you might answer that, but not standing in Vietnam. That whole exchange seemed off, and I'll leave it to ordinance experts to opine if what happened immediately after that is even feasible, but I doubt it.

    Oh I can do that all night, as long as she's clean and there's no shitty acting and birds flying around in slow motion on in the background.

    Faceoff. So bad.

    I think that if you formalized it or made it a common practice, it would be a problem. Come to Texas and if you don't go pro we have a guaranteed 80k a year job for you after you use up your eligibility. I could see the NCAA caring about that as a recruiting advantage. If it's legal then we should already be doing it, just as a recruiting tool.

    Snacks, not to turn this into ask an African American anything, but what's your opinion on the Eyes? Did black students always hate it and feel like it had racial overtones, even when you were in school? As I've stated earlier, I'm on the side that the current students seem to be stretching to find a racial connection that most, including me, did not know existed until this week, but if a group of folks has always felt uncomfortable with it that certainly changes things.

    I'm no expert on NCAA rules but if this was legal to do, every rich school would have already done it. Think of the recruiting advantage you'd have with a de facto "pension" plan in place.

    A cynic might suggest that they are hesitant because a degree from the University of New Haven does not have same cachet as one from Yale, so they're willing to be offended as long as it doesn't really cause too much inconvenience.

    OU players petitioned to reduce the number of words in their fight song by 50% so it is but a single word endlessly repeated. I don't believe it's related to racism, though.

    Interesting. I did not know that about Rice until I looked it up after reading your post. I bet pretty much any private school named after a generous benefactor has problems. Stanford for sure. Guys that got incredibly rich in that time period weren't exactly woke.

    There's also the fact that Eli Yale was a slave trader.

    But he did write Crazy, which would be a perfect tribute to our abusive relationship with Texas football over the last decade.

    Clemson is. I know Watson is advocating for the removal of Calhoun from the honors college.

    Because owning slaves is morally fucking wrong? Unlike singing an inherently non-racist song that happened to be sung by some idiots in a minstrel show. I don't really see the comparison.
