Holy shit you dipshits: 9-3 Texas is probably in the playoffs
Hermanator replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
Funny how almost everyone is now coming around to saying what I and very few others around here were saying before the season. The SEC is teh deepest conference from 1-10 in the country by far. No need to schedule anyone that has any shot of beating you in OOC unless every conference is forced to do it. -

That's a bad metric to use. It only measures after a completed play. If you could snap shot it when that onisde kick was rolling free on the ground it would have swung wildly to Vanderbilt. We fucked up and got lucky that onside kick was pushed out of bounds. No reason to try to cover up the truth. That's what happened. -
What trump has done to the republican congress is eerily similar to what Caligula did to the Roman Senate after his extended illness led his Praetorian Guard Prefect Macro to convince Caligula's heir Gemellus to prepare to ascend to the throne on Caligula's impending death. Once he recovered he humiliated the senate every chance he got, and they just ate it out of fear of execution. Of course the republicans of today are far greater cowards than the Roman senate, but trump has humiliated and emasculated them every chance he gets. They just eat it and smile. Even now when trump is at his weakest and can easily be taken down they refuse to put the knife in his back out of fear of losing their status and congressional seats. We are witnessing men and women who rank among the biggest cowards in all of recorded human history.

The failsafe for a corrupt congress was the people voting them out. There was no way to conceive of the power of the internet before the 1990s. Just a glaring example of how the antiquated US constitution isnt equipped to handle modern life. It needs to be overhauled and adapted. We're seeing this globally. The UK is destroying itself in much the same fashion we are. Many European countries are seeing a rise in extremism their governments are struggling to handle. Globally the systems we've cultivated over centuries became obsolete in less than a decade and now are buckling under the weight of an uncontrolled global propaganda system. That's how the relative global peace of the 90s and 2000s turned into this global nightmare in less than 2 decades.

Founders expected any president using it for mafia, gangster bribery shit would be immediately impeached and removed by the congress. Or else the people would obviously vote out such corrupt leaders. The founders didnt see an instantaneous global network communication system so vast and powerful that the country could be turned into a hive mind programmed to worship the corrupt, incompetent president as a god-king.

None of those teams have a chance to win a title. There's no way we beat 4 top 15 teams in a row with this secondary and this OL and RB room. Vandy and Miami aren't doing it either. It would be interesting just because it would give us at least one more meaningful game to watch. -

He'd have to wake up long enough to write. And would still need someone else to write for him so it doesn't look like the doodling of a 4 yr old. -
The entire concept of Jesus is just as brain dead ridiculous as this. Only difference is you grew up getting your head filled with that middle eastern mythology created by people you dont know. Where this just came out of someone you know is a dumb, shitty person. So people have been listening to the dumbest and most deceitful among us for thousands of years.

I don't believe that. G5 programs dont make any money now anyways. No kid aspires to be the QB at fucking Bowling Green. But if you believe it... Well then go to option #2 I listed -

I was in my 20s and had more tolerance for stupid bullshit. Given the events of the last 20 years I'm about all out of tolerance. Seems like you are too. Throwing random personal insults to someone you don't know who didn't attack you in any way. What kind of person does that make you? -

I know who he is. It's still embarrassing to have to beg to be included in the playoffs for any sport. College football is completely broken. -

This same problem existed before as well. Just you didnt have any way of determining a true champion so the beauty pageant stuff was about who was #1 at the end of the season. Not #12. The problem with the sport is conferences being completely unbalanced. The only way to fix it is to cut out G5 into their own separate level of CFB and re-rack the conferences to balance them out with power teams. The other option is to force OOC matchups between the p4 conferences where every team has to play them. If everyone has to play difficult OOC games then it adds more balance and we get a lot more of this stuff settled head to head. They could even cut out all cupcake games and have each p4 conference play the other 3 p4 conferences in 3 ranked matches then have the 9 game conference schedule. That would be a true battle to crown a champion as all 4 of the conference champions from the previous year would have to play each other as their non con games. -

Now our university employees are publicly begging to be picked in the CFB beauty pageant. This sucks so much. I've been trending away from football and towards hockey a little bit more every year for about a decade, I'm about done with this beauty pageant bullshit. -

This is wrong because rankings are wrong, especially early in the season. We obviously weren't the best team in the country in late August but were ranked 1. Ideally, there should only be 1 single ranking done and that's at the end of the season. Since they won't do that, the best you can do is wait until the end of the season and judge based on where every team finished, not where they started or were at any point before the season finished. -

And that just makes the sport suck even more. Sports is supposed to be about what happens on the field/court and this corporate corruption shit makes me want to watch it even less. And I've put out aboit the best solution to this problem under current circumstances. That would make them tons of money as well. But it won't happen. So we'll just get this shit every year.
