  1. Survive and advance. Style don’t mean shit right now. I’ve decided Skittlebrau is what would have happened had the lead singer of Sublime kicked heroin and gotten into football.
  2. An ex-colleague was in the real-life group that Tag was based off from Spokane. It makes sense if you know him. Wasn't excited to see him buck naked in the shower in the closing credits getting tagged. The guy getting tagged at his father's funeral is a true story.

    The young lawyer shows me that Sheridan learned everything about lawyers on Suits and Ally McBeal. There are so many things about that character that just don't exist in the real world. Particularly when she takes it so personally that her client has to pay more to the mourning widows. I get it - "win at all costs" - but she (or her firm) make the same either way, and it's hardly an "L" on the record. This heel turn is both weird and hilarious. If you want me to really believe she is pissed off to the point of threatening Tommy/Coop with the false alternative narrative, at least introduce the partner at her firm in Houston (played by Sigourney Weaver, Viola Davis, or Michael Chiklis, take your pick) reaming her out because Monty reamed them out (as opposed to her directly) and threaten her partnership promotion. All that said, I enjoy the show and will keep watching it.
  4. This. Dems have to stop being on their back foot for their policies just because the right demonizes them due to "team". It probably belongs in the New Democratic Platform thread, but I'd put at top or near top of list: "Stop Apologizing and Start Attacking." People want to be hit over the head, not rationalized with. Start hitting the stupids over the head with how this new administration is going to hurt them from day 1. You'll never win over the racists and the christofascists whose single issue is fear of the other and abortion, respectively. But there are stupids out there who don't fall into those two categories that voted for Trump and Obama. Get them back.

    If Sheridan would just allow a couple of people in to give notes, I think his shows would improve dramatically. The premises of all of them are terrific. But he needs someone to say -- "would that young widower really be calling out Cooper's awkwardness around breast feeding? Is that something you think women do? What's the point exactly?"
  6. Scrooged is a tough ten seed for Jimmy Stewart. Get some officials that prefer snark to saccharine and my guess is Bill Murray is getting all the calls and might even take out Bad Santa in the round of 8.

    Garcia is going to be Ali Larter's hotelier husband I am pretty sure... that just makes sense to me given she's on here way to Ft. Worth as well. Separately....
  8. If any of these guys get have any significant impact with a contending team or are drafted, quote this post. It sucks that our recruiting was this off and our depth is gone. But I imagine they’d get more run over guys like Norton and Lole if they were any good and that we’ll clean up in the portal.
  9. Maalik’s NIL check was going to get smaller. So constructively, yes, that’s kinda what happened. Duke fans are pissing me off though blaming Maalik for leaving after more or less giving Leonard a pass last year. I wonder why.
  10. I think he ends up at UCLA or one of the Arizona schools. Someone has lined up NIL bids for him that Duke isn’t willing to match. My guess on the backup is he was told he wasn’t starting or had to earn the bowl game start and hit ejection. Not sure though.
  11. We are heading to Disney 1/1-1/8 after having to cancel two years ago. Bay Lake Tower. I think we are all set, but still trying to figure out the lightning lane/fast pases, etc. I thought I had to wait until the morning of each day we are there, but saw somethign else that says I can book 21 days out? So confusing.
  12. Seems like he had some book smarts. Wonder what sent him off deep end… https://www.linkedin.com/in/luigi-mangione?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=ios_app
  13. Nine. But this conference is a circle jerk and they are chickenshit. We should open every conference meeting with this argument. Our home schedule is Big XII level bad next year. Add that extra game.
  14. Five and six looking nice. My concern with SMU is they will put Clemson ahead of them which means Clemson jumps Miami and the three SEC teams, one of which beat them last week. Unless they decide Clemson jumps ASU. 1. Oregon 2. Georgia 3. Boise 4. ASU 5. Texas/ND 6. Texas/ND 7. Ohio St. 8. Tennessee 9. Penn St. 10. Indiana 11. Clemson 12. SMU
  15. Yes. Was funny. McAfee and Kirk were cracking up. Not sure if Saban knows or not he can’t say that. I presume they had the delay to bleep it but they didn’t.
  16. Right, but he met this hot minor that was denied care and cracked like Tom Wilkinson.
  17. I am betting the long odds on a Michael Clayton situation. CEO was about to cross street and tell his stockholders UHC is evil and the only way to survive long term is to reorient around the consumer. Board tells GC to do something about it and GC goes all Tilda Swinton and confusingly orders a hit.
