  1. For what purpose? To emotionally manipulate onlookers and justify punishing the wrong people? Biden is right, Israel should learn from our mistakes and not invade Gaza. Their tanks will be useless against the embedded terrorists that can hide in the population and miles of deep subterranean tunnels. A lot of young Israeli soldiers will die for nothing, perhaps less than nothing as they accidentally kill innocent Palestinians and inspire the next generation. It took us years of blood and billions (trillions?) of dollars to figure this out. Israel should get the revenge they crave with air strikes then use surveillance and special forces raids to try to surgically dismantle the Hamas networks. Hamas wants the invasion. They want to drag Israel and the US into the shit. If we want to continue to contain China and support Ukraine, we cannot afford for this to expand. The only way Israel (and the US) “wins” this round of the conflict is by preventing escalation.
  2. Did the Chinese shipping vessel drag its anchor or did it “lose” containers at an extremely coincidental time? Initial reporting was that it slowed down as it traveled over this pipeline/link. and do we respond by destroying Chinese infrastructure or do we just look the other way and guarantee more of this bullshit?
  3. Murphy was throwing to backups too… If not the spring game, what gives you confidence? Blind hope? His 4 of 8 for 47 career passing numbers? BDE?
  4. Yeah Russia is now on the brink of controlling part of the train tracks to avdiivka. if I’m Ukraine I may be withdrawing from avdiivka and dumping mines everywhere. putin getting thousands of his men killed so he has a symbolic talking point for his symbolic re-election campaign is so on brand.
  5. I had to read this a few times to get it… that would be hilarious. Gbenda had to stop before he got to the big swinging dick part.
  6. Dude, remove them. This isn’t even a question
  7. While you’re at it, use @Huckleberry’s adjusted stats (if they still exist) to adjust for strength of schedule.
  8. This argument is not worth rehashing.
  9. Didn’t Houston switch to a 3 deep defense which is the Achilles heal of Sark’s O? Based on hungover post game analysis reading so hopefully I got the gist
  10. Ok fair points I’m apparently just arguing the definition of catch radius at this point so I’ll admit defeat and bow out saying I’m pleased with our offense and think Maalik will play well enough to win. We’ll miss QE’s timely runs but maybe MM’s giant ass will shrug off a couple of these sacks QE has taken.
  11. You are right but LJH got a lot of back shoulder sideline, stop routes, and jump ball throws in that hero ball terrible Herman offense so he had to show off a catch radius. That whole offense lacked speed or separation so it was all about physicality and tough catches
  12. I’ve always loved your takes but this one is weird. This is the best receiving group we’ve had since like 2008. Maybe 2005? I don’t know who you’re comparing this squad to but they can catch the ball. We have an elite pass catching TE for the first time since Jermichael or young Irby. The only ones with maybe sus hands are X and Gunnar? X makes up for his hands with his feet, getting balls into his catch radius no one else can. This is the first time in so long it’s really looked like we had 4 star pass catchers across the offense. I can’t be the only one that’s noticed QE completing a lot of what should be easy throws with bad ball location that forced the receiver to stop or fall down.
  13. It still would have been suspect but yeah, of course, converting there just leaves like 2 nerds bitching about it. but it didn’t work because it was a bad call
  14. Yeah that fake was dumb as fuck. Kick it. Or go for it with your O. Don’t fake it, especially not the week after successfully pulling off special teams trickery against OU. THEY WERE LOOKING FOR IT
  15. Pre-season you KNEW Maalik was going to play this year. We knew we needed him to help get us to a B12 championship and ultimately, to Arch. Here’s his shot and I’m excited AF for him
  16. Let’s not kid ourselves that QE is a precision passer. He relies on our across the board absurd catch radii. The recent increase in his completion percentage is more a function of the defenses we’re playing and QE just not trying too hard. The most important thing for MM is his understanding of Sark’s offense. If he gets it, easy throws are there all day. If he doesn’t, he’s going to look inaccurate.
  17. Yeah you knew that play was fucked when he immediately had to make a dude miss. I was definitely heated we didn’t EITHER go for it with our fucking offense OR kick the fucking field goal. But props to Sideshow Bert for that move
  18. This defense would be completely ineffective against a 2005-2020 big12. We’re lucky as fuck the big12 passing offenses have devolved and we keep getting backup QBs. Thankfully we stop the run but our DBs are simply not good enough to do what we ask them to do. Where are all those mother fuckers that were dunking on PK doubters?
  19. Or recovering from leg injuries. I think this OL is good and the offense overall is elite, but we keep sending guys out there when they’re not 100% and they play like it
  20. Yeah I didn’t get why we ran a play. There was effectively no upside and it got QE drilled and gave UH even more momentum. That game made me drink a lot but it seemed that during the 1Q, QE had all day. In the 2Q, UH started bringing pressure and it just killed our offense because we couldn’t pick it up.
