  1. Sark clearly can make adjustments. Klatt is talking about one such adjustment in the national champ game preview. It's not like he is incapable of it, but, strangely, the 3Q was such a clusterfuck. Is he better when he makes quick decisive adjustments (the one Klatt is talking about was clearly made in game during the 1H) and outhinks himself when he and the staff have 20 minutes?
  2. I get weather, but does anybody think this guy doesn't deep down know how piss poor attendance was at his last inauguration or that he didn't see how many of his rallies were very poorly attended. He won because people are stupid and lazy but he hasn't exactly engendered huge in-person showings of support in a long time. He can blame the weather and whine forever about it that things would have been YUGE if not for that nasty woman Mother Nature.
  3. The easiest way to get yards, especially in the red zone, is a straight line up the middle. The easiest way to blow up plays is once again a straight line up the middle. We can talk about Quinn, Arch, blah blah blah whatever but this Oline has to be better straight up the middle than they have been. 1. It enables the running scheme Sark really wants to use and 2. Well that's just football.
  4. Yep got a good friend who is a retired Colonel and West Point grad. His oldest is there now. Not only did both do sports in HS, realize at least at WP every single cadet must compete in some athletic endeavor all four years. Intercollegiate, Club or Intramurals, whatever but you have to do some “sport”.
  5. Well probably but that's part of the problem it's conjecture since a lot of this scheme has been hatched in secret behind closed doors. The rationale hasn't exactly been transparent. I think the cover story for this that has come out is "well we are not getting state funding we need and so we are exploring all options on how to deal with that" but the details on why this is an option that would improve anything is....lacking. I can do simple math and say living here yea even without a state funding boost for being a "new district" (no idea if that's a part of this...like I said no details and I don't keep up enough to know if "new" districts get a boost simply for being new) that if the tax base in Keller proper was only supporting the population in those schools in Keller the per-student allocation would probably be higher. But as has been said a million times on this thread that's such a short-sighted way of looking at education as I tend to be one of those "a rising tide raises all ships" kind of guys when it comes to education. I'm also fairly certain that the fundie fuck crowd thinks it will be easier to maintain their grip on a Keller-only district and do with it what they will. I got about 130 days to care in a family sense directly, and eventually, we will be getting out of Keller. But, as long as I am here still plan to vote against these assholes because they represent everything that is going horribly wrong in the destruction of public education. Edit - sounds like tonight was a shitshow. Coming to a Nation's Capital Near You IN 4 SHORT DAYS
  6. I live in Keller, my kids have gone and go to Keller. Oldest is a Sr at Texas and two youngers are Srs at Keller (so really just about done with it) It's been a shit show here for a while as this is one of the boards that got taken over by the Patriot Mobile fundie fucks a few years back. This is just another one of their half-baked, done mostly in secret shitshow plans that who the fuck knows what will happen. They pushed out the awesome superintendent of the district and the one who is in now apparently has said tonight that she is ready to offer her resignation. The morons are in charge and as Brisket likes to say there is no bottom. That said, people are having fun with it...this page is kind of funny shit for Facebook.
  7. In fairness Elmo has had some issues setting up livestreams in the past.
  8. Just a biiiit outside RIP to a good
  9. Well something like 20% of the adult pop in the US is illiterate so start there and move up rapidly.
  10. Not yet, still in the heavy petting stage.
  11. I'm waiting for Porta Potty Girl to weigh in.
  12. If I had a nuke for every time that Trump or somebody in his orbit was “destroyed” I could actually destroy some shit
  13. Other than the attention whore clash Deion makes perfect sense. This job is a head coaching career killer for the Kellen Moore’s, Jason Witten’s, Kliff Kingsbury’s name your “younger up and comers” of the world. They would all be wise not to touch it with a 10 foot pole. Other than retreads just looking to cash in on one more pathetic chance and don’t care what it means for them Deion and his Primetime persona is the only one who can survive the Jerry shitshow when it goes bad.
  14. And we're done here
  15. So was Sam Darnold taking NZT-48 for the first 4 months of the season and then his supply ran out?
  16. Should have been a holding call....and Vikings get a worse result because well....Darnold.
  17. LOL that's a horrible fucking call
  18. It's the military just give them boring names like New York does with its schools if it's going to be such a snowflake deal. Army Fort 1, Naval Base 24, etc.
  19. Got that sweet Peach Bowl trophy to complete the box set bro 😎
  20. The funny thing is that while I am no Fat Mikr fan this season winning 7 games with what his stupid fucking GM saddled him with was probably his best coaching job since he arrived here.
