  1. I guess I didn't think it was confusing, money buys talent. Point is that McGuire didn't become an elite coach overnight, his players just got a lot better. That's not a knock on him or Tech, it's the new way forward, and I'm hoping my school can find a way to make it happen.
  2. Tech is the model showing that money is more important than coaching. It's why I'm way more concerned with compiling NIL commitments before OSU hires a new coach. Saw a rumor yesterday that we have an up and coming billionaire who is good friends with Dana Holgorson and might throw his weight behind the roster if we hire him as HC. I'm not entirely thrilled with the idea of Holgy returning as HC but if it comes with a fully funded roster, I'm all for it, because that is what's more important. Let others do some of the HC heavy lifting like roster and locker room management and let him coach offense and bring in a good independent DC to do the same? I'd take that setup over the old model even if it was Saban or some other old legend (yes I know he's not in the running just making a point).
  3. Looks like they’re moving to soccer stadiums. The Renagades appear to be going to Toyota Stadium. They’re probably still too big for this league but better than pro stadiums I guess. I expect they will clear the yard lines entirely for soccer game. Nothing looks worse than watching soccer played on football lines even if they’re faded.
  4. I guess I don't really follow this drama, but isn't it a good thing if he got in shape, regardless of the fact it shouldn't have taken this long and that his motivation might have been financial? Take the win and hope it works out.
  5. Thread title should be changed to 8-8-1, right on track, lol.
  6. lol pedo. Franlkkin gonna be fired on the tarmac on arrival right?
  7. Pope is obviously correct re Catholic dogma. Along those lines, what about divorced Catholics sans formal annulment (i.e.,the vast majority of Catholic divorces)? In particular, those in subsequent relationships/partnerships? Can they get Catholic awards without all the crying? Nah, just 'bortion and gheys.
  8. Interesting. I wonder if they're taking my comment from a while back to play in much smaller stadiums so stands don't look empty and focus on TV ratings for bored post NFL weekends. I think most markets should have a very nice high school or small college stadium that could be used. If the Arlington team stays in the old baseball stadium it would kind of go against this statement though, right? It's far from a small intimate setting, it's a massively oversized bush league looking setup craming it within a baseball stadium footprint.
  9. Maybe she’s finally on meds for the crazy?
  10. I can see that I guess, there does seem to be a special appeal to the suburban family crowd and this demographic.
  11. Are you speaking to something unique about a Bananas crowd that gives you that impression as opposed to any other sports crowd in this part of the country? Or groupings of people in general these days? I just assume that unless it's an artistic or education or cultural focused event that 75% to 90% of everyone around me is a raging asshole, politically speaking. I'll never understand the complaints. It's a fun product that I can appreciate without interfering with my appreciation for a regular game too. I think NASCAR is quite literally the dumbest "sport" to ever exist. It's fucking cars driving in circles for crying out loud and even live the action passes your seats only occassionally. But there's an audience for it so it has a right to exist and I just don't watch.
  12. She had my vote in the primary precisely because she talked policy and how to correct some of the excesses of American capitalism. It’s the same shit that every female candidate faces. Too bossy, too emotional, just plain unlikable, etc., etc., etc. It’s clear to me the next nominee has to be a straight white male. I hate it but that’s the only chance. Newsom isn’t my favorite but he’s playing the game and is also capable in my opinion of effective governance. I like Buttegeig way better, but you know, gay, and probably talks too much policy for this stupid af country.
  13. This is fucking stunning to me. “Politicians talking policy is part of the problem.” I mean I don’t disagree considering the audience (ie the American electorate) but still. “We have concepts of a plan” was said by the victor during the campaign. Again, stunning.
  14. Yes, moar, moar about how dems are at fault, how they can message better, because that will totally work, and pleeeeeease, can we get more about how bad “the liberals” are if they aren’t liberal enough?
  15. Oklahoma Governor has another year before he terms out. No sports betting at the Casinos until he’s out of office.
  16. Boston swinging at nonsense. Game likely over.
  17. Worse than NFL because it would be 10-12 teams playing the same schedule every year and the playoffs and title games would all be rematches. It’s what this thread’s most prolific poster has been clamoring for for years because LEECHES.
  18. Decent Air BnB available soon. https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/5012-S-Western-Rd_Stillwater_OK_74074_M94184-16484?from=srp-list-card
  19. Fuck ou
  20. Yup, even Campbell is on a mission for a salary cap. OKST got a billionaire to build a stadium with his name on it, and have since gotten rich alum to build an indoor practice facility, baseball stadium, tennis facilities, soccer field, and gigantitron all with naming rights. We’re still looking for a softball stadium and wrestling facility. I think we’ll get enough payroll to fund a competitive Big 12 roster in football, but it’s spent and gone in a year with no legacy. It’s not a sustainable system even for the big dogs.
  21. Let’s get the right thread back on track. This is interesting. Is everyone eventually going this direction?
  22. Ouch, injuries suck ass.
  23. Because the majority of americans are absolute dipshits who gobble up lies the way bob stoops eats dicks.
  24. Any of our resident maga or "both siders" want to tell us how its the left that is so divisive?
