  1. Rachel Powell @Iamrachelpowell "I, a mom & grandmother with no criminal history, have lived like this since #j6." Ahh, the old ' "I'm a mom and grandmother" defense. If you're responsible for other people's lives, maybe you should spend your time tending to those people instead of trying to break into the capital to overthrow the government, which may have legal ramifications and take you AWAY from them.
  2. Congrats to the 2023 Texas Longhorns for an AMAZING Season. Thank you, Quinn Ewers for being an incredible leader. You carried this team. You gave us the lead vs OU in the last minute. In last night's game, where you were under terrific pressure throughout the game, and you never gave up and gave us a chance to win at the end. Was it your best game? No. Did you do your part to put us in a position to win? Absolutely. Screw all of you who continually doubt him. To all of the quarterback whisperers who think Arch will start over Quinn, remember when you said that about Maalik? Players don't just come in and star. It takes years. Penix is in his 6th year. 6 years! Quinn is our best QB since Colt and I sure hope he comes back next year. I've had the honor of spending two afternoons with him on shoots and gotten to know him. He is a fantastic young man. He's smart, funny, friendly, and humble. And this brings me to @shadow_operative. You don't know our players or our fans. You lurk here, and then spew out your bile. When people call you out on it, you then try to gaslight us and claim that wasn't what you wrote. (FUN TIP: You know it's kinda easy for us to check what you posted, right? We just have to look at it.) Next, like clockwork, you change the narrative to be all about how you are persecuted by us. Finally, you roll out your nuclear option, where you list your various mental and health issues, which you use to control criticism of you. It never changes. This is a new year and new chance for you to contribute in a meaningful way here. And if you can't do that, at least be funny, or entertaining. In other words, find a way to make people want to look forward to your posts. It's really not that hard. Hook 'em!
  3. Well, I can't believe I'm posting this, because after A&M had one the most embarrassing season in college football HISTORY, Florida State University may have TOPPED them in the stupid and embarrassing department! Whining that they got left out of the CFP playoff Threatening to sue the NCAA Having state politicians promising state money if they wanted to sue (that's a good use of public money in a state with low education levels) Suing their conference to break away without any landing place but will cost them untold millions Claiming they had "no choice" but to sue Having their coach ill-prepare them for their bowl game Having an untold number of player opt out Suffering from the ALL-TIME WORST LOSS BOWL GAME - 60 points!!!!! Having their coach claim that they are a championship team AFTER suffering the worst bowl loss of all time
  4. Hahah, Norvell really said, after suffering the worst loss in bowl-game history, “this is a championship level team.” He also said that if they had been in the playoffs, a couple of guys would have had two more days to get healthy and would have been able to play. He is such a little crybaby! The Twitter/X posters are rightly calling him out for how his month of whining filtered down to the players and affected their performances
  5. Thanks for posting. I’ve never read the full story. Truly amazing. “We don’t want someone who’s biased running our journalism department, unless they’re biased towards our politics.”
  6. "We deserve to be in the playoffs! It doesn't matter that we lost our QB who's our best player! We earned it by being undefeated!!!!!!" "Of course we lost our bowl game! Our best players didn't play!!!"
  7. As Aggy said, it was a loose, loose situation.
  8. It’s weird. It’s almost like FSU focused so much on how they were wronged that they didn’t prepare properly for their game against Georgia. Of course, that’s impossible, because they understood that the best way to make their point was to throttle Georgia. Hahaha!!!!!
  9. Georgia’s game today and Aggy’s incredible effort against OSU are easily the two most impressive bowl game performances.
  10. At halftime, FSU is making a special presentation of their lawsuit to the ACC officials on the field. Dr. Pepper is sponsoring it. It's already been filed, so this is largely ceremonial.
  11. From the NY Times: "Some critics say the battles over Donald Trump’s ballot status are turning him into a martyr and eroding faith in U.S. elections." I would think Trump and his minions have done enough "eroding faith in U.S. elections" to the point that its stupid to worry about this. Here is the article but it is paywalled.
  12. Shoot. We missed a huge troll moment in the Texas Bowl game. When it was clear OSU was going to win, we should have pre-pledged a huge donation to the OSU athletic department if the crowd had chanted "BDF, BDF, BDF."
  13. Now, are you happy, @Neonmoon? Thanks to you, I've missed my Fleshlight sales quota for 4th quarter. Not only do I have to explain it on call with the regional sales director, (who's a 33 year old bastard who likes to age-shame me), I've still got to somehow move 55 units. Does anyone want to buy one? They make great gifts for your family and neighbors.
  14. Are you happy now, @Neonmoon? Thanks to you, I lost this afternoon and I have THREE DAYS in 2023 to unload 152 Fleshlights to retain my position as the number one salesperson in the Central Texas district! And please, DO NOT ASK ME TO CREATE a Mike Elko as Baron Harkonnen!!! I'M NOT DOING IT!!!
  15. Seriously, guys, I have to get to work so please, no more requests! I've got a garage full of Fleshlights that aren't gonna sell themselves!
  16. Observations from Stuart Mandel: Florida State’s lawyers did not throw together that lawsuit overnight. They’ve been doing their due diligence for at least a year or longer. So, you might assume the school had some assurance of an attractive landing spot before opting to go scorched earth on its conference. But to Jeremy’s point, I can’t imagine SEC commissioner Greg Sankey wants anything to do with FSU’s pot-stirring ways. He also doesn’t need the ‘Noles. He already has the flagship university in the state of Florida, along with a half-dozen other schools with as much or more brand cachet. The Big Ten makes more sense as a home for FSU since it has already shown it’s willing to bend all geographic barriers. Plus its main partner, Fox, currently has no presence in the Southeast. It’s also not currently facing an existential crisis in its business like ESPN. But I believe FSU is mostly betting on itself and its ability to command value in whatever the next iteration of college football might look like. To that end, FSU has for some time been seeking a private equity partner to fund this whole endeavor. In the meantime, the school is making its relationship with the ACC untenable to the point where the league may soon have no choice but to negotiate some sort of reduced-fee exit. If/when that day comes, I see one of three scenarios happening: The Big Ten comes calling. Fox — less streaming-dependent than ESPN — happily writes the check. FSU brings along Clemson, Miami, Virginia Tech, etc., and forms a new football conference that, by stripping out the bottom half, commands more dollars per school than the current ACC.
  17. @Neonmoon what we do here today will resonate through the ages.
  18. Yes, I love how he eviscerates the, "this wasn't about slavery" argument. Of course it was! In those primitive times, poor people in the South gave up their lives and treasure in order to help rich people prosper. Thank heavens the people of the Southern US have evolved beyond these primitive ways today.
