  1. CA Dems' fault
  2. And leave one of their shoes untied.
  3. Now Nick says an armed man went to his house to kill him. Cops killed the guy. https://www.the-sun.com/news/13127535/nick-fuentes-berwyn-suspect-shooter/
  4. Agreed. It would be borderline malpractice to lose Arch to the portal in order to accommodate Ewers for another season based on the second half of this season's results. It's part of the puzzle, though. Undersized, slow and injury-prone is not a good skill-set for wannabe NFL quarterbacks.
  5. Democratic leaders need to just skip right past Trump and go directly to Elon to discuss policy, etc. That will drive him bananas.
  6. DA Fani Willis booted from Trump’s election interference case in Georgia https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/fani-willis-georgia-trump-case-b2667285.html
  7. Well, we lost the last one. And the next time that happens, our season is over. But he'll be several million richer -- $4M has been floated -- transferring to another program.
  8. Has this been discussed yet?
  9. Author of that piece is trying way too hard to polish a turd IMO. There's a lot I'd quibble with in that article but I pretty much stopped at: Um ... Do I think Manning would show better than a clearly-hobbled Ewers in our past three games? Maybe. I would've liked to have seen him come on with a 24-7 lead vs Kentucky and let Quinn rest. Have him get a few more snaps against aggy. Play some in the SEC Championship Game. It's OK to acknowledge Quinn isn't 100% healthy and that's why you're mixing in the kid, offering a change of pace without upsetting the #1-#2 QB hierarchy. Sark has all the political cover he needs at that point -- and shields Quinn a bit by admitting he's not 100% healthy. Ding, ding, ding. We're down to our preseason 3rd-string RB because of injury. We knew that wasn't going to change. Things would look a lot different with Baxter in the backfield. But it is what it is. Arch gives you a dynamic that you just don't have with Quinn but you have to commit to using it. Defenses have to account for his ability to get ouf of the pocket and make plays with his legs, which Quinn simply cannot do in his current physical condition (at least from the KY ankle injury forward). Let him throw a time or two when you bring him in. And it also works better if you've been using it throughout the season and not waiting until Game #14 to unleash it (if he even does this week). The reason the run game is shitty in the RZ is a combination of things, yes. Most of it being that the guys running the ball were backups or third-strings until injuries forced them into bigger roles. Having a QB who can an element of running can help keep defenses honest. It can work -- and has worked. We're not asking Arch to take over as #1 right now. We know Sark isn't making that move now because he hadn't done it when it made more sense than it does this week. Perfectly said. 10/10, would read again. Agree totally with this too.
  10. Police cam footage is out. Man, this dude is loathsome as it comes.
  11. This seems grim. https://thebarbedwire.com/2024/12/18/in-texas-bipartisanship-is-on-life-support-republicans-could-pull-the-plug/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR1K96z1NzdrnI-rW8tkzubTcFtJmh9rgTLhHB5TgqezuQmBjfJp0u8L69c_aem_T1KUpYhawAuvEiBPJaBiRg
  12. You'll get no argument from me. I'm somebody who spent nearly 10 years of my professional life in that realm, albeit on the sports side. All the Presidents' Men is probably in my top three favorite movies of all time. Bezos and other similar wide-ranging corporations owning news organizations is problematic to say the least.
  13. Klatt is hands-down the BEST college football analyst in the country. And, yep, this is what most of us are saying WRT to Quinn and the Texas offense. BO&W takes it to another level that I'm not completely comfortable with but he's not wrong in a a lot of what he says. (I definitely stop well short of calling the dude a pussy.) I hope Klatt is right and that Ewers is working a short leash Saturday. I hope he plays terrific against Clemson and we win convincingly. I hope it continues through the next three rounds and he's drafted in the 1st round. My only ask if he simply can't get it done that Sark will go to Plan B before it's too late.
  14. Not sure if he's talking about the near-pick on the Helm throw or the god-awful miss to Bond on the play before, which was far more egregious IMO. On the Helm throw, he just didn't see the defender sitting underneath the throw. I'd like my third-year starter to not make mistakes like that but I know shit happens even to the best of them. The clip immediately prior, where he flat-out couldn't throw a catchable ball to Bond, who'd criss-crossed the defender into falling down and could've walked 65 yards to the endzone was a horrible miss by Ewers. You've got to have those 10 times out of 10.
  15. Maybe ABC's decision makes sense from a "business" standpoint -- it unfortunately sets a very dangerous precedent. This will only embolden this piece of shit -- and others in his orbit -- to make further attacks at what is left of America's "free" press.
  16. And wasting months and months going after Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
  17. Closest I could find. https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/18/politics/matt-gaetz-ethics-report-committee/index.html
  18. Ha. Tell the assholes to quit cutting the data lines in my neighborhood in order to steal copper, then I'll think about dropping my DirecTV. It's happened at least four times in the past six months, twice in two weeks at one point. If we didn't have some AT&T big-wig across the street our outage would've likely been multiple days each time rather than less than 24 hours. (I was about to make the switch to YouTube TV last Xmas and called DTV and they gave me a ridiculous deal to stay so I did. Reminds me I need to call them back to see if I can extend or if it's time to rattle the chains a little bit again. I won't mention the copper thieves.)
  19. There's an older pic of him with presumably his dad and a friend (or sibling) in the stands at aggy game 10 years ago. He apparently went to South Carolina, is wearing a Baylor golf shirt in his profile pic and also sports an Auburn sweatshirt in another picture. (Wife appears to be an Auburn grad. Whether the couple is into pegging or not is not readily apparent in their FB profiles.)
  20. In reversal, key House panel votes to release Matt Gaetz ethics report https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/18/politics/matt-gaetz-ethics-report-committee/index.html
