  1. Yeah and the talking heads were wrong. He maintained possession. Herrible choice by Stanford QB
  2. Yeah, that's very much the vibe I'm getting too. I hope we're both right but it ends up she just went off the reservation and is found living under a bridge or with some new guys she found.
  3. I've been through some hard shit. I firmly believe in avoiding the pitfall of suffering comparison. I've seen other struggle too, and we've all been through various issues. For me, it's finding A, yes capital, A reason to fight on against the demons, struggles and issues are plaguing ME. Once I had that I started building THE reasonS. There is no easy answer and sometimes, when I am not expecting it the struggles sneak up on me. It's scary and frustrating at the same time. To think Ive moved on, gotten better, improved, healed and grown. Yet, there they are again. Wtf.. so Derka and any others i can only tell you what I do. Use or dismiss it as you see fit... I refocus on A thing. THE thing. I put one foot forward, I make sure I appreciate all I do have, then I take another step with my focus on A thing. THE THING. I'm not willing to share my thing, but I don't think it is relevant anyway cause mine won't be the same as yours. Texas is doing pretty good in football. I'm hanging with my family who's largely healthy. My motorcycles are running well. My dog is crazy, healthy and happy. I've still got my cabin and my land. Got some cash in the bank. Some things.. some good things. If nothing else, anyone reading who is suffering please know.. you aren't alone. You just aren't.
  4. I'm not arguing for or against your larger point, but using demographics data from Cuba is just silly. Same thing for North Korea, China or Russia. I'm confident that most of those metrics are not um.. accurate. All countries manipulate them to a degree for this reason or that. The 4 above.. go beyond manipulate.
  5. I'd love, at some point, if non-FCS wins were removed from consideration completely for wins and SOS. However, to really drive the point home make losses count against their win loss record and SOS.
  6. This is what I predicted years ago, and IMO make way more sense. I THOUGHT they'd go from 4-8. In the 4-8 transition the CCG winners get home field first round. Then second round championships use the big bowls. Essentially I thought that model would then morph into 16 and your model. I was wrong on the process but still believe ultimately it's where we end up. So you're saying there's a chance. Man, I really hope they let me take video if it comes to pass.
  7. I'll go out on a limb and bet there is more than one Russian wife who got her husband to sign some "Volunteer" papers while he was hammered on wadka.
  8. At this point if they shoved CU in and left out the Big 12 champ, I wouldn't even be surprised.
  9. How in the fuck did @MissingInAction end up running a tank for the Ukrainians?? He musta clicked on an add for Ukranian wives. "Come meet your future wife. We will fly you here and you'll be perfectly matched."
  10. There's absolutely some strange shit going on in this one. I'm lost as fuck but perhaps that's because the current details are sketchy at best. Lots of things don't track for me. I'm not going to dismiss some mental illness issue possibly leading to the fathers estrangement from his daughter. Likely a big factor in his suicide as well. However, even without a child, and admittedly no bad mental illness issue, I can't imagine dying before resolution. I also can't imagine being in those shoes so.. It's also suspicious.. lots left unclear.
  11. Honestly it's bad for "business" that being business being ratings. They will want ND for example to play another Helmet blue bloods if possible in early or later round match up. Texas, Georgia, Bama for example. ND vs SEC loser in first round, with them matching up much later vs the SEC winner. Then they'll look for big cross regional matchups where they can get them Georgia vs Oregon or a Arizona State vs Penn State in the first round. That won't be the primary guide for seeding but will absolutely be a substantial factor.
  12. This is full on aggie style, Kyle. (And your name is suspicious too)
