  1. I am entertained, but wholly furk, Army choked up the 11 point lead in the 4th quarter to lose by 1. That took a concerted effort by Army to lose.
  2. Tulsa defense is gonna whip their own offense's ass. 1. Tulsa fumbles inside the Army 10 after a decent drive. 2. Hurricane defense forces 3 and out by Army. Gains possession at the 50. 3.Tulsa completes pass down to the 25 and WR fumbles on contact. but then again, that's all after Army opened the 3rd Q with a 10 minute drive; so Defense owns that piece. Some say it's boring, and I get it. The players change but this team is fun as hell to watch IMHO. Army driving with the lead, 25-14. 10:20 left in the 4th.
  3. I am enjoying the fully deployed quad screen again this beautiful college football Saturday.
  4. Top 20 team... Former Top 20 team
  5. Time for Linwood Homes to step up.
  6. SMU spanking dat Luivul ass.
  7. Mizzou and OU going for ugliest matchup of the day?
  8. Yeah Jimmy openly stated after he cut John Roper for falling asleep in a meeting that had it been Michael Irvin, he would have just found a way to wake him up. Jimmy was a hardass, but if you produced, you were fucking playing on Sunday.
  9. We have had this one for about 3 years. It has the grinder, traditional drip, and k-cup all in one machine. $280-ish. Both of our sons have high end shit at their houses and they pitched in and got this for us. It is not remotely approaching the rigs they have; but I like the versatility/ reliability.
  10. You mean like the SEC performance in the 2025 NCAA basketball tourney? I mean yeah, flood the zone, and some shit's gonna get through. or maybe you meant the sheer dominance the SEC displayed in the inaugural 12 team football playoff.
  11. Things turned out pretty well for Anthony Michael Hall...
  12. Aussie Rules TD? LOL.
  13. Yeah, Purdue is much more battle ready than Tech was. I'm not sure how good of a measuring stick that game is for Painter's Crew, other than they absolutely controlled every aspect of the game, with execution on their side. Tech offered zero balance in their offensive attack. Zero on the defensive end. Purdue's starters probably have to work harder in practice... The screen shot did throw me off though because it plainly says it's final... and then I was like, "Illinois + Purdue= 2 losses" lots of work to be done by McCasland. I felt like I saw him not being the best coach he could be a couple different times in this tourney. Not calling a TO to break Wake's run before half is one example. The 4 guys standing around watching Tippin on offense was just fucked up. No movement no nothing. That's why these events are valuable though. You don't get a lot of learning against Western Prairie State.
  14. That is incorrect. Tech is 4-2.
  15. Hawkins didn't get pushed around though. Maybe Petty will grow into it- mentally as much as anything else.
  16. since when has that stopped anyone?
  17. Give Tech credit. They are leaving no doubt. 1. Christian Anderson is not a PG. He can't penetrate. Hell the offense starts from the logo, because that's as close as he can get. 2. Petty is too small to be the PG. he gets fucking worked. 3. The offense seems to be stand the fuck around and hope for a 3, unless Toppin gets his regular plays. When it's a miss, there is fucking nobody but opponents in the paint. 4. I learned last year that CMC's defense is very passive; which was a major change for us as fans. This shit tonight is from the planet bullshit. 5. CMC taking the timeouts into the lockerroom at halftime last night with Wake on a 10-0 run pissed me off. Like I said earlier, tonight he is leaving no doubt.
  18. Meh. That's why the playoffs matter. SOS is an indicator, but it's also endemic of shit people "think." I mean talking up the lower performers in the SEC definitely helps A&M on paper; but what does the eye test tell you?
  19. Last night Tech is up by 4 and Wake Forest inbounds the ball length of court, only for the receiver to immediately tap pass to guy set up outside 3 range, and he nails it. No contact. No foul. Tech wins by 1. badass shot to close out the game though. Tonight in 3rd place game, Memphis is up by 2 with 2 seconds left, and Wake basically runs the same exact play. Swish. Wake wins by 1. Amazing to see it on back to back nights by same team.
  20. If you're gonna Army the game and hog the ball, ya still gotta score. Aledo up 21-0 at half. and LMAO at DeSoto trying to game the Longview fans. Those east Texas schools travel. They give not a fuck where the game is.

    Couldn't agree more. Medical industry says Hi.

    NIMBYism

    So we need Obamacasa in addition to Obamacare, am I hearing that right? OK. I'll quit fucking around> I have discussed before being in subsidized housing when I was a kid. We lived there 4 years until my mom got situated( she had been out of the job market for 20 years and then suddenly was a single mom with 3 kids.) Every day was an effort to get the fuck out of there and they were decent apartments in a decent part of town, as in, there weren't crime issues or whatever. IMHO, that is what "affordable housing" or subsidies should be for, even if there was no defined time limit, it should not run into perpetuity either. As a taxpayer, I'm cool with that premise. Defined timelines with progress towards independence. Crazy, I know... The approach does not need to originate from "the gubmint has an endless supply of money." What's reasonable? 10 years? I know 4 isn't the answer. I just take issue with the folks who feel like they are owed, and I know you know where I'm coming from. There were people who lived in those apartments in the 80's who probably lived there until they died. That's not cool either.

    Also false. Get jobs and go earn it. I know, it's insane to say that, but people do it; or should we ignore the other results? There are always tradeoffs for different decisions in life. Too slorchy, i know, but I get sick of the "woe is us" as well as the " Government must intervene!" bullshit.
  24. The Sark thread has admittedly been better, for sure.
