  1. I still don't understand why we had to go through this circus.  Trump had a fucking home run pick in Barrett.  Young, conservative, clean as a whistle, and you know the Dems can't say shit about a woman.  She breezes through the process, the SC is locked down, and Trump gets brownie points for getting another female on the Court. 

    Yet somehow we got sucked into this shit storm because even when you tee it up perfectly for Trump he still manages to trip over his own dick.  What is Kavanaugh going to do for Trump on the SC that Barrett wouldn't?  The whole idea that the President can pardon themselves?  Even if Kavanaugh is willing to stoop that low, there are eight other judges that won't.  The only thing that makes any sense to me is that Trump is trying to push a damaged nominee through now while he has the votes and saving Barrett in case Ginsburg croaks.

    Harrell had two future NFL O-lineman playing in front of him, but the thing you'd notice if you actually watched the games instead dismissing anyone who puts up gaudy stats as "another system QB" is physique and arm strength.  

    I get what you're saying but let's not act like Mahomes was some surefire thing that anyone who paid attention could figure out.  "Physique and arm strength" is something scouts always talk about with the next sure thing QB that inevitably flames out.  There's a list a mile long of guys that have a "cannon" for an arm and don't do dick in the NFL.

    Everyone sees something different at QB when it comes to UT folks..

    Nothing new here.

    If you didn't see Mahomes' bassassery, you just flat out didn't watch our games. Ever. His o-line generally sucked and the defense made a wet paper sack feel tough as hell.

    You're right.  I don't really watch Tech play.

    I just know Graham Harrell threw for 5k yards at Tech and then went on to complete all of 2 passes in the NFL.  Guys like Doege and Potts could put up 4k+ yards and complete near 70% of their passes in the Air Raid offense.  And I doubt their O-lines were world beaters (maybe just better at holding, amirite?).  And Tech's defense always sucks.

    I wish Mahomes all the best.  I harped for years while DJ/Jamaal were on the Chiefs about how Alex Smith wasn't going to get them anywhere.  Glad Reid finally found his guy.  Just wish the UT guys were around to benefit from it.

  4. Only thing I remember of Mahomes' time in CFB is us knocking him silly.  When I heard he'd been drafted high by the Chiefs I was just scratching my head thinking Andy Reid had lost his damn mind.  Tech QBs don't make it in the NFL.  Everyone knows that. 

    Guess the fat man saw something we all didn't.

    By this definition, OU just destroyed Baylor with their backup QB.

    Thompson has pretty much been K-State's starting QB all season, but Delton's gotten some snaps here and there.

    My bad.  Still, this is a horrid KState team and neither QB is worth a shit. 

    Boyd needs to figure it the fuck out before next Saturday.

    it was a legit call on us   we held the runner coming out of the backfield and knocked him down.

     

    but that being said, on the same fucking play there was an obvious  hold on Kstate's Oline that was fucking ignored

    I'm still fuming about that non-existent PI call when their guy just fell the fuck down.
