    what a thread.

     

    the thread i jumped on back in like 2008 or something started with a claim that the Arctic would be ice free by the summer of 2012.  this didn't happen. in fact, while 2012 was left with something like 4,000,000 square kilometers of sea ice, it was a relatively low ice year.  it is now 2019....and we are having a year roughly the same as 2012.  consider that 4 million square kilometers is about 2.5 times the size of Alaska. so the prediction was an ice-free arctic by 2012.  7 years later we have an area 250% the size of Alaska with ice.

    I remember reading claims back in 2008 that Obama wanted to take everyone's guns away. And yet between 2012 and 2017, U.S. civilians bought 135 million guns.

    I therefore conclude that democrats have no intention to reduce or restrict gun ownership in the US.

    I like this game.

    Go fuck yourself.

    Edit: Just to add, I really mean it. Go fuck yourself. I hope your shitty ass backwoods county is fucking decimated by Emperor Trump's trade war. Just hope the donut shop dont close down.

    Interesting phraseology and argument. I was attempting to say that young people doing stupid tings is somewhat expected but destructive or self destructive acts are across the line. I didn't say I associated all three as a single act. And by all means bring back the late 60's phrase "experimenting with drugs" like it's some kind of noble research project carried out by an individual instead of the self destructive waste of time it is.

    I assume you are a fellow Longhorn or you wouldn't be here, but why you would choose to jump on that phrase with both feet is a bit puzzling . I mean it's not like the way you went about it is going to change my mind, and you are not attempting to encourage drug use by kids... right?

    I am all for encouraging drug use among college "kids."

    What the hell did you people do in college

    Season Tix holder.  Was at the game.  Crazy atmosphere.  Not as hard charging as Notre Dame, but our tickets back then were in the upper deck of the NEZ and there were lots of Likes to Fight guys wearing green in attendance. Lots of Purple and Gold in the Lower Bowl of the NEZ.  Fuck those people that sold those tickets. The National Telecast really elongates the game, every time an LSU player pulled up lame, there seemed to be a 3 minute TV timeout, lots of void to fill.  In the 2nd half, we had students filling the aisles in our section (8).   The music was hella loud and would always bleed into the next play.  Flyover was bad ass.  On the promotions, they need to start firing the prizes into the parents section, shit, we are the ones footing those bills on the other side.

    I can't remember a game with that many TV timeouts.  Every time a LSU player cramped, we were subject to a 3-4 minute commercial break.  Perhaps I'm just getting spoiled with commercial free programming between DVR, Netflix, etc., but holy shit that was unbearable.

    Neither of us have any clue how this team will perform from game to game. That's a big problem. It has been the case for Herman's entire tenure at Texas.

    You and others are excuse making for a terrible performance against mediocre team.

    This conversation is as productive as any you would find in cloak room.

    The season will met out the reality. This round and round bullshit with people who won't acknowledge the reality is a waste or fucking time.

    I'm not making any excuses. That's a lie. I simply said that I wasn't expecting to wake up to read that our offense isn't good enough to win the conference. It's your opinion the offense was terrible? And I'm making excuses for a terrible offense? 

    You're fucking hysterical and, frankly, acting like a little bitch. You're "off the ride?" Ok, bye I guess. We're you expecting an undefeated season? Most had pegged this as a 2-3 loss season. If you think that last night portends a 4-5 loss season, well that's your opinion. You may be right. If you're off the ride and think that discussing the team is a waste of time, feel free to log off. No one's forcing you to discuss this team.

    You know there are two halves right?

    So you're also of the position that we don't have the offense to win the conference?

    Over 500 yards of total offense and what should have been 45 points against LSU.

    I knew I'd see some overreactions after last night. Can't say I thought I'd wake up to see blame being placed on Ehlinger and the offense.

    The frustrating thing was the d-line played reasonably well. They couldn't run the ball effectively so it's not like we had to commit bodies to stop the run. It seemed like Orlando was afraid to adjust his play calling due to a threat that wasn't there.

    It was maddening that we'd bring three, drop 8, and there'd be a WR just fucking wide open within 3 seconds. The film is gonna be even worse than it looked live.

    I'll give you Texas can get pressure on the Oline.

    But  when it comes to Texas Oline vs LSU defense, Texas Oline spends most of the game getting pushed into Sam's lap. 

    I'm not saying that with high belief in LSUs Oline I'm saying it more towards the fact that LSUs Dline should own this matchup. 

    Honest question: how does your DL compare to UGA's last year?

    Bc we fucked that DL up.

    Proud might be a little strong of a word to describe it. 

    But for as much as people insult him, if Texas loses on Saturday, no one will let you forget you lost to a team coached by him. And I'm not even talking LSU fans.

    Um, so your coach is such a joke that when he beats a team that's a 6 point underdog, the losing team should expect indefinite humiliation and mockery simply because they lost to him?

    That's your position? Then yeah, I guess "proud" would be a little strong.

    It’s a bad attempt at trolling. He’s gonna be a moron and try to pick internet fights until he’s banned and can go back to Tigerdroppings or Texags and complain about how mean those people were to him.

    ...Although, from reading that one post he could just be suffering from actual mental illness. It seems a bit much for a troll.

    Yeah, dude's about 3 facebook posts from shooting up a wallmart
