  1. Ooh, my cool Ricky autograph story involves me sneaking into the Texas locker room after the '96 loss to Notre Dame and approaching Ricky while he was getting his ankle tape removed. Got him to sign shortly before getting caught and ushered out.
  2. Are the players who transferred TO Texas entitled, or does it only run the one way?
  3. Yeah but on the plus side, maybe Rex's rich friends will feel more comfortable participating and donating
  4. Took the dog on a walk through the hood today and came across this rugged beast. To be fair, its SoCal so the weather can get pretty fierce.
  5. National survey of college students conducted by the Univeristy of Chicago: https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-05-02/student-fears-triggered-by-israel-palestinian-tensions-skyrocket Can anyone find the survey tweeted by a citizen journalist so that Sack knows he can trust it?

  7. Guys it's Gary Peterson. It's all photoshopped. That's like his whole thing
  8. This is exactly why many Americans are supporting Russia in their invasion of Ukraine.

    This is patently untrue. The problem, as it has been discussed ad nauseum, is that one of our major political parties peddles untruths, conspiracy theories, and racist/anti-Semitic narratives. Exclusively. Can you provide an example of a contemporary GOP principal that does NOT demonize or villify a group? -The media is the enemy of the people -Immigrants "poison the blood of our country" -Democrats are the party of pedophiles -Gay people want to groom our kids. they are also pedophiles -Trans people want to groom our kids. They are also pedophiles. -Leftists want to indoctrinate children. They are also pedophiles. -College Professors are leftist agitators trying to indoctrinate students. -The 2020 election was stolen by Democrats! -Joe Biden is an illegal president. He should be imprisoned or executed. -Women should be imprisoned or executed if they have an abortion. Even if its to save their own life. -Muslims should not be allowed to enter the country. -Russia is a good, Christian nation and they are only defending themselves from Ukrainian Nazis. -Vaccines are dangerous. -Climate change is a hoax perpetuated by Democrats to push their green narrative. The above are not just positions you see in conspiracy theory chat rooms. They are the mainstream, national political positions of the GOP, echoed by the leader of the GOP and his minions on a regular basis. So, if you are a member or ally to ANY of the above groups, and someone tells you that "yes, Muslims should not be able to enter our country," or "hey, you're probably ok, but I don't trust the Trans community and see no problem with people exercising their 2nd amendment rights outside gatherings of Trans individuals," or "gay people probably shouldn't be telling their students that they're gay" then its hard to see how its anything but a direct attack on you and your way of life. Gone are the days where we sit around arguing about marginal tax rates, military spending, and the role of the government at large. What does constructive dialogue look like between a member of a targeted group and someone seeking their removal or erasure?

  11. Well, guess I know why he didn't address this one. He doesn't think it's a lie.
  12. Yeah, truly enlightened now that you've shared that we should "get back to killing all the communists and progressives." Nice diversity of opinion. What was your previous username(s)?
  13. Lol at Pronghorn finally feeling safe enough to make political posts in the DT now that his buds have all arrived
  14. In retrospect, maybe. But not necessarily at the time. Hell, in a Gallup poll taken shortly after 4 college students were killed by the national guard while protesting, 58 percent of respondents blamed the students. Also this:
  15. Well, you guys need somewhere to discuss leftist group think, and we've seen how scary the CR can be. You're safe here.
  16. This is my main beef with Hartzell - that the governor of the State publicly supported the arrests of ALL of the protestors based on the content of their message. And Hartzell just fucking sat there. THAT is the moment when a University President is supposed to lead.
  17. Can you name a Biden lie that is equal-to-or-worse than the continued assertion that Joe Biden and the Democratic party illegally rigged the 2020 presidential election in multiple states to override the will of the people and install Biden as an unelected despot?
  18. I saw what happened the last time a large group of people wearing MAGA gear marched on a building. We can't let that happen again, obviously, so we should start cracking skulls when they start to gather. Ok, I'm sold.
  19. Anyone ever been to Mian? Not new, I guess, but I just learned that they have a Houston location. Is one of my favorite noodle/szechuan shops in all of LA. https://www.yelp.com/biz/mian-houston
