After doing their best to make it dramatic, McLaren did everything right today. They covered off every strategic option that could have threatened them, really perfect work by the team strategists today.

Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Huckleberry replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
Not really, they played an FCS team. An FCS team that went 3-8 against FCS opponents. -
This is dumb. Yes I looked at the source. It's only going to get dumber every year as NIL increases parity across the P4 conferences.
-
But that's the question. How much of that is the cars and how much is it Hamilton sucking at the end of this season? Leclerc is still handily beating Antonelli in quali each week (Qatar excepted) and beat Russell at COTA. I'd say the Mercedes is nominally better overall than the Ferrari right now but not nearly as much as it's being made to look due to Hamilton's results. Plus there's always the second Red Bull car to consider. I know Verstappen is ridiculous but there is still something going on over there. I can't believe anyone is that much better than the rest of the F1 field.

Well I mean he's probably a top 10ish driver this season, so he's definitely cooked compared to what he used to be but it's not like he's bad. 3 straight weekends out in Q1 certainly doesn't make it seem like it's getting any better though. And the defense that it's all a crappy car and team rings sort of hollow. It's still the 3rd or 4th best car on the grid and he's getting knocked out in Q1 and his run of championships was with an absolutely dominant car and team. Anyone willing to bet money that two time driver runner-up Bottas will be in the top 4 of the driver standings next year in a Cadillac?
-
Russell was faster than Hamilton last year. In fact, I just looked it up and this is the second straight year Hamilton has lost GP qualifying 19-5 to his teammates. Including sprint qualifying, Hamilton has lost to his teammates 47-13 the last two seasons. When anyone else on the grid is getting destroyed like that people are asking if the losing teammate belongs in F1, with the possible exception of RB/Verstappen.
-
His pace is ridiculous. VER NOR PIA RUS first two rows. Start will be fun tomorrow.
-
Bortoleto tied up qualifying 12-12 with Hulkenberg and easily into Q3 with a monster lap in Q2.
-
I agree but when I pointed out he wasn't one of the best drivers last season a couple of people around here got mad like I was insulting their family. As I said then, age comes for all of us and it comes at different speeds for different people. Leclerc outqualified Hamilton 19-5 this season. He's currently up 17-3 in GP finishes.
-
Good time for the season to end for him. Either he's completely washed or he's gassed from the longest two seasons ever. We will find out pretty early next season which it is.
-
It's a good rule that isn't understood by fans, just like the dropped third strike rule in baseball. Both of those rules keep the rules consistent. For the touchback situation, the goal line/end zone is a special area of the field. The consequence for the ball going through/into that area and becoming a dead ball depend on which team was responsible for that action (i.e., which end zone it is). If it's the other team's end zone then it's a touchback. Doesn't matter where they last possessed it, the rule is consistent. If it's their own end zone then it's a safety. Also doesn't matter where they last possessed it.

Well I think I've decided to piecemeal my sim racing rig by seeing if I really like racing and it's not just a short term interest. Getting a low end direct drive wheel to try it for a while. We will see if a year from now I have a full rig.
-
The Texas sports information department should be going full villain and tweeting clips of this subpar game simply noting that this is more proof that the relative importance of W/L record versus schedule played is completely misunderstood by the committee. Flat out say that neither Tulane nor North Texas have any business in a Top 25 ranking because they don't. At best these teams are in the #40 range.
-
24-team playoff with all conferences sending a champ makes the most sense in an NCAA sport because that's what everyone else does. FCS has 24 teams in the playoff. Basketball has 68 or a little under 20%, baseball has 64 or a little over 20%, FBS has 136 teams or whatever right now oh hey 24 teams is a bit under 20%.
-
Yep. Every conference champ gets in and you still have 14 at large slots (after Pac-12 starts again next year). First two rounds on campus. No I don't care if bowls die.
