  1. Beaumont is far from a reliable Republican stronghold. Jefferson county went blue in 2018, 2012, and 2008 to name a few. It was also one of only 2 counties that went for Gore in 2000 iirc but I couldn't find a map of that. The last map is of the 84 Reagan landslide back when Jack Brooks was our long time congressman and Jefferson was blue as fuck because of its coalition of black and union voters. No shortage of crazy MAGA racists over there but I'd be shocked if it went for Trump again this year which it barely did in 2016. *edited to say that I'm responding to Voldemort's post directly above mine.
  2. No, they're for real about that.
  3. They survived the fire. About 100 other people died. Now, they're trying to kill their fans with Corona. https://consequenceofsound.net/2020/07/great-white-concert-coronavirus/
  4. I hope the "anti-racist program" looks something like this, beginning at 2:50.
  5. No, I'm not serious about that. I just meant it as a joke since it's the same nickname as Nederland. Thought that might be a funny direction for them to go.
  6. That was me. My parents graduated PNG in the late 60s. My brothers and I graduated Nederland in the late 80s, early 90s. I'm perfectly serious. My brother asked my dad, who worked at Gulf/ Chevron for a long time, what chemical accounts for the smell near the PNG high school. He said it's butadiene and suggested that the drill team could be known as the Butadienettes. I would like to see them adopt a unique nickname with a local flair like Gators, Alligator Gar, Pelicans or some shit. It's their chance to give themselves any name they want so it'd be a shame if they chose Eagles or Wildcats.
  7. I vote for either PNG Petrochemicals or Bulldogs.
  8. bad_teammate, sometimes all this reminds me of Derka 8 years ago defending Rick Barnes. I mostly agree with you but you have no tact whatsoever about this shit and it does end up being personal. The post just before your last is TwiceHorn admitting that he sees how his previous comment could be seen as having "a racial tinge to it." It's pretty rare for someone to say something like that and it's not something that I've ever heard out of any racist. It's exactly the element that's missing from discussions like this. He's apparently thought it over and changed his mind somewhat or at least clarified what he meant.
  9. He's not wrong about this. It does amuse me that it's been years since I've heard any right wing, FoxNews fan admit to having supported the Iraq War. Pretty much every Trump fan was calling anyone opposed to Iraq and Afghanistan invasions a traitor back then.
  10. A few reasons, I think. It was at the end of the last page, late at night, and only 4 hours before your post. Also, TwiceHorn doesn't have a history of posting racist shit that I've ever seen. I take it that he's calling them dumb jocks instead of dumb blacks. Racist? Could be. Dismissive? Absolutely. It does sound like the kind of thing a person that thinks shut up and dribble might say.
  11. I've been staying for the Eyes through blowouts both ways, bad weather, and all that going back to the early '90s. I've always thought of it as a way to honor the efforts and commitment of the players. If the players aren't seeing it that way, then I'm done with it unless there's some kind of resolution.
  12. Yesterday was such a shit show for them that he probably flung the glass and hit a disabled minority kid they had on stage as a prop. So much material that it won't even be remembered come Monday and won't even make it into the next Lincoln Project ad.
  13. Any QuikTrip is nice compared to a Kum & Go.
  14. Did she secure the nomination already or is she in a run-off?
  15. His Orca of Peace profile was crowd source banned. He continued to post as Oatmeal Raisin Cookie and various socks that would all follow the same pattern of initially acting like a moderate/ left poster only to suddenly post something horribly racist. I assume he did this to paint leftists as the real racists or some shit. I think he was FC Horn.
  16. The Dow has dropped over 700 points to fall below 25,000 again. If it rebounds, Trump can tweet about it reaching the 25,000 milestone for like the 8th time.
  17. Trump should try something like this, it'd be more dignified.
  18. How many of our fans that go to the games actually care about The Eyes of Texas? I feel like it's usually more people heading for the exit than singing and that's among the people that went to the game and stayed until the end.
  19. Hell no. I'm not serious.
  20. Where's the outrage over the tires that were slashed by Chicago gangs this weekend?
  21. “When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.” Nice name, Branco.
  22. It's a big vehicle. After those, still room for Die Ridgemont and Lincoln Rules.
  23. What would I paint on the car of Alex Jones? I'd probably go with the classic.
  24. Bogdan...why always Bogdan?
