  1. So apparently everyone knew this except me? Honestly I had no idea this was possible. Thank you for the explanation!
  2. Ermmm, Liz Cheney lost in the primary. What am I missing?
  3. Left Coast! Woot woot!
  4. Well it certainly doesn’t rise to the level of Obama in a tan suit.
  5. So I’m sure if Boobert wins, this close call will make her more introspective about her divisive viewpoints and support of the Big Lie and……. ha ha ha ha ha ha sorry I couldn’t finish the sentence. Who am I kidding, she’ll go all-in on the “Democrats tried to steal this election” ass-hattery.
  6. Oh MTG not gonna be happy about this new colleague: Another election first: California sending first openly gay immigrant to Congress https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2022-11-10/long-beach-sending-first-openly-gay-immigrant-to-congress
  7. That is just Dave Foley doing a sketch comedy bit, right?
  8. There were two propositions about sports betting, one only allowing it at tribal casinos, the other allowing it online. The tribes spent big bucks against the online prop, and Draft Kings/Fan Duel spent big bucks against the tribal prop. So they both lost.
  9. Not sure how all the ranked choice stuff works but hopefully Palin is toast.
  10. Crossposting from 2022 Senate election thread. Weather tomorrow looks rough on the West Coast including Nevada, but shouldn’t be a factor elsewhere.
  11. Weather outlook Tuesday: Rough on the West Coast, including Nevada. Doesn’t look like Vegas will be too impacted, but Reno and the empty (red) parts of NV will be hit hard. Looks like weather won’t be a factor in the other key states.
  12. Except by law in California the districts are drawn by a non-partisan committee instead of the legislature. So no, that’s a very bad example. https://www.wedrawthelinesca.org
  13. Early voting process in California: 1. I was automatically sent my ballot a couple of weeks ago. Spent about a week thinking/researching/filling it out. 2. Looked up where to drop off my ballot near me. There are ballot drop off boxes on practically every block: 3. Drop my ballot off after dropping the kid at school. That evening I get an email: It should be this easy for everyone in the entire fucking country.
  14. The PAC had 5 games, with 3 teams on a bye (incl Oregon and UCLA), 1 Fox, 1 NBC (Stanford/ND) and 3 shipped of to the PacN wilderness.
  15. It’s a good point that right now OU/UT scoop up the best Big 12 network/time slots. I honestly thought TCU/Okie St would do better even against Bama/Tenn. Then again I much prefer watching Big 12 over SEC football. I’m not saying the PAC is more popular (it’s not) but the garbage, terrible P12 Network is a gigantic albatross around its neck. It basically forced USC and UCLA to GTFO. I’m just looking at ratings. Maybe after UT/OU leave it will allow other B12 teams to step into the spotlight, but I feel like the same issue you talk about (up against a juggernaut SEC/B1G game) is only going to get worse as those conferences expand.
  16. You sure about that? Take a look at the TV ratings this year: https://www.sportsmediawatch.com/college-football-tv-ratings/ The TV ratings for non-UT or OU Big 12 games are pretty bad. Hell, you had undefeated TCU play undefeated Okie Light and go to OT and you had… 2.14m viewers. I’m not seeing where there is a huge difference in interest between non-UT/OU Big 12 games and non-SC/UCLA P12 games.
  17. I said higher education. Lol… what he said!
  18. Probably due to the fact it involves opportunity in higher education.
  19. Reading this thread:
  20. I think I already saw that episode…
  21. Yeah the residents of Brentwood, Bel Air and Westwood would allow a new stadium to be built in the year 2000-and-never. But maybe they could become Saturday tenants at So-Fi? Inglewood is closer to Westwood than Pasadena is, and So-Fi has a smaller capacity. The novelty factor itself would attract more fans, not to mention its a much nicer stadium. The only thing that would be worse is the tailgating. Tailgating on the RB golf course is spectacular.
  22. Unfortunately for them it doesn’t seem like many people give a shit about the pipeline.
  23. Why is everyone saying WV is terrible? I watched them lose @ top 25 Pitt in their first game by 7, and they were in it to the end. They lost to KU at home but this year’s KU seems like a different beast. They steamrolled their cupcake and then beat VaTech on the road by 3 TDs. I don’t pay WVU too much attention but I don’t see the evidence that they suck as much as many here seem to think they do.
  24. I feel like I’m watching a real-life version of Atlas Shrugged when it comes to Russia. All the smart people (or people with resources) GTFO, government tells everyone else what to do and takes over everything, country collapses into poverty (and in this case, war). Regardless of what happens in Ukraine (and I think Ukraine emerges with most of its 2014 borders intact) Putin has single-handedly pushed Russia back 50 years, if not more.
