  1. I think it's pretty simple that Flood and Tashard Choice are terrible evaluators of young talent. We'll see what Scott has.
  2. Their own brainwashed nutjobs end up turning on them. Remember when everyone was scared the killing of Kirk was going to spark some sort of republican revolution? Yeah, these people are too vile to ever get along with each other. This is all they know how to do. This is why functioning governments and societies put them down and toss them into the corner as extremist nutjobs.
  3. If you think this franchise is running the table you're very very bad at learning lessons.
  4. Hopefully they can get this game in and get these kids to training in time for the ground invasion of Venezuela
  5. Interesting, is the overhyped of Buffalo Trace stuff dying off? Haven't bought a bottle of bourbon in probably going on 3 years so have no idea where the market is right now.
  6. Because he wants to actually play football and Texas needs to build up an elite backfield. Sark let him know his time wouldn't be here found forward. People don't talk about it but Tashard Choice was a shit RB evaluator. Very good coach, but he can't identify elite RB talent in HS kids for shit. His place is the NFL. Our room is in shambles. We have to land a major league portal RB to go along with possibly Wisner and Cooper as the big time freshman. Then keep developing Simon. If Clark sticks around he provides depth.
  7. Then he fucked over the Stars and put them into bankruptcy with him by 2009. They didn't recover on the ice until 2016.
  8. All F you money means is the ability to tell your boss to fuck himself and never have to work. That's far more than enough for that if you don't live like an idiot. If you want to devote your life to greed, excesses, and exercising power over other people then it's not enough. But people that do that are fundamentally broken people. They're at best sociopathic, and at worst down right evil. There's a group of people out there you never hear about because they don't want those things. They take their several million dollars and do something similar to what I described. They have no desire for power, greed, or screwing people over.
  9. Especially from someone who chooses to call himself "Uncle Sonny" I'd put the o/u on diddled kids with that handle at 3.5
  10. $10 mil is far more than enough to never have to work again. My high yield savings earns 3.5% annually. Even just parking $8 mil at that rate would net over $200k annually after taxes. I'd be in Costa Rica living super comfortably off that. And that's just the high yield checking rate. Not even taking risk.
  11. He was headed for a potential all pro laden career, and that injury robbed him of it. He had a single season that was decent and otherwise sucked completely for the Cowboys and bowed out of the league unceremoniously. Probably cost him $50+ million in salary and many years of a career. Only reason it wasn't far worse is because Jerry Jones is a top 5 dumbass in all of sports. Now that's a worst case scenario and unlikely to happen, but again, intelligent people think in terms of calculated risk. I know many of the old school fans here like to think in terms of the days when players made jack shit and went to sell houses in the off-season. They'd play for the hell of it because they weren't really risking anything even if the game was meaningless. That was the terrible bowl era that existed for far far too long. This new era actually gives more than 1 or 2 meaningful games in December/January. Is still not great because of the unbalanced conferences and weight placed on record and not quality of opponents, but it's slowly getting there. At least now the people getting screwed have 2 or 3 losses and not 0 or 1. The sport has moved past the need for meaningless bowl games. The $$$ on the table has blown past the level where playing for meaningless games makes any sense for players going to the draft, or even your starting QB who is returning next year. Why risk Arch, who has taken a beating this season, behind a line that will be missing starters who are leaving for the draft? If your job told you if you took the rest of the year off you'd get several million dollars next summer, but if you worked the rest of the year (at no pay) there's even a 1 percent chance you wouldn't get the money, none of you would choose to work. You're expecting these players to think with your stupid fan brain. And unfortunately that pressure causes some of them to make bad decisions. That's why the coaches need to protect them and do what is right for them. And right for the team. This game is meaningless.
  12. That's smart. Then you add the option for them to be able to pay their way out of not having to visit that Disney shit hole. Earn some extra $$$ for the transfer portal.
  13. Yeah, the idea is momentum (inertia) doesn't translate over 9 months of inactivity. The only thing that can happen in this bullshit bowl that can have any meaningful impact on next season is if one of our returning players goes down with a 9+ months long injury. An object in motion continues in motion unless acted on by a force. Well, the end of the season and not playing again for 9 months with a completely different roster is a pretty big force to kill the motion built during the season. Thats why getting returning players who didn't get much or any time all the reps is the best use of this time. It alone won't make a difference to next season, but as a beginning to an off-season development campaign it is a solid foundation.
  14. What would you personally pay for a bottle of Elmer T Lee?
