  1. ‘When is too young’ says the just asking questions guy. So your solution to this issue (which you’ve already admitted to knowing little about) is to take the decision away from the child, their parents, and their healthcare professionals and it give it to the Government (which you are adamant we cannot trust). Yeah, that’s tracks. You’re a real live and let live type.
  2. Perhaps, but he’s also a fucking coward
  3. All I saw was Martin claiming he never felt bullied at the time, meaning he overplayed the impact of the shit that Incognito said to for attention/sympathy or whatever. What did he claim Incognito did that was a lie? Pretty sure the accusations, such that they were, were all true. They had voicemails and did a full investigation: Seems like that goes well beyond locker room talk where boys will be boys to me. Incognito’s own actions (with Martin and otherwise) ruined his reputation, not any slander.
  4. Is that the dude from Arcade Fire? Did his pass for the 40th anniversary afterparty still work or something
  5. I noticed that too and looked up what was going on with him exactly. Apparently he broke his neck on the show in 2001 and has had a bunch of back and neck surgeries since. Makes that segment on his and other cast members doing prat falls a bit awkward.
  6. Was just about to post the same. Irrespective of what Martin is saying now (and he seems like a real piece of work), Incognito is a total piece of shit. Fuck em
  7. A list for a cabinet appointment?
  8. On election night while I was spiraling I told my wife this is a bad place full of bad people. I hate being this cynical about the world, it sucks. But here we are
  9. I don’t care about the MVP either way, but Josh Allen is a real one
  10. Funny, I’ve been on a mini Jeff Buckley kick lately and been wondering how his music would have evolved had he not drowned. Your mileage may very on Grace (I get the sense there has been some backlash to his hype), but he was really talented and obviously interested in a lot of different genres. It’s hard to even guess which direction his music would have gone in the early 2000s and beyond but it would be interesting at the least.
  11. The answer is pretty obvious. He’s young, a Gideon protege, and already has experience being a coach on the field:
  12. I’d be surprised if Huff was pushing hard for the gig tbh. I don’t know shit, but I get the sense that he enjoys the relative low stress/responsibility of what he currently does while still getting to be part of the program.
  13. He got a DC gig, good for him. Interesting to see what the search looks like for us from here.
  14. Tell that to half of my middle school class in the 90s
  15. He plays over 35 minutes a game, and he gets hunted relentlessly, both because he’s not a good defender and because it’s good strategy to make him work on defense to make him less effective on offense. It makes sense that his blown by stats are the highest in the league. That does not mean he’s the worst defender in the league. There are players that are amazing offensive players that can hardly get minutes for their teams because they are such liabilities on defense. Luka isnt that. He’ll never be a great defender, but he’s been part of good nba defenses. With what he can do on the other end of the floor, that is enough.
  16. These are all great points if you completely ignore the reality of what Luka and the Mavericks have done the past few seasons. He’s a bad defender, but he’s not generationally bad, that’s dumb. He has actually been a useful piece on a good NBA defense, last fucking season. After making the trades for Gafford and PJ they were one of the best defenses in the league by every metric down the stretch. You just need the right pieces around him, he’s not an unsolvable liability on that end. I don’t even want to argue the offensive side of it, mainly because arguing whether Luka’s offensive game is winning basketball or not is weapons grade stupid.
  17. Well, they were only 15 years apart, but… No, Luka’s defense isn’t as good as young LeBron’s, but he wasn’t putting up these stats as empty calories on bad teams. Already two western conference finals appearances and one finals appearance. You guys are too caught up in the “he doesn’t play defense” talking point if you are underplaying Luka’s value right now as a 25 year old superstar.
  18. Completely anecdotal, but I split 4 tickets with a group of 10 friends and to a man we’ve all said we are done today. Doesn’t help that the new owners have been jacking up the price every year and a few of us were getting disillusioned anyway. Maybe after the shock wears off and if we play well with AD some of them will reconsider, but I think I’m done. Only way I get tickets is if they cut the price by like 50% (lol) and I can go to games to mainly check out other teams/players I want to see.
  19. Don’t you tell him what he can’t be.
  20. So for real, why are headcases so over represented among WRs?
  21. Saban being paged at the Austin Airport
  22. Yeah I was on my phone and couldn’t figure it out. Works on a desktop
  23. This is awesome. Do you have it hosted on YouTube or somewhere where I can share it with people?
  24. He’s right if by “football scholars” he means “TexAgs posters”
  25. Did you happen to catch our playoff game against Washington last season?
