    If only Chris had done that. He'd have a pair of glasses and still be our coachĀ 

    I suspect most of us, at some point in our lives, have had a female companion with an excessive need for attention, often exacerbated by slight over-indulgence in alcohol. What is needed is a place of her own, preferably with a lock on the outside. Failing that, we have to be able to restrain an occasional physical attack without undue force. Unfortunately for some of us, we may find ourselves in a likewise state of slight over-indulgence, and if our companion is a large, strong person, we may encounter an exchange of bruises, scrapes, and scratches.Ā 

    Honestly, I believe his initial statement was probably pretty damned close to the truth, namely that he was reading something, she demanded attention, he failed to respond and kept reading, she snatched (so to speak) his reading glasses from his face and broke them, which pushed him over the edge, A few slaps were exchanged, she called 911 (often a Bad Idea absent a life-and-death situation). One of the responding officers told her they could arrest him if she was - oh, I dunno, being strangled? She went with that, the cops pretended to believe it, and here we are.

    I still feelĀ  that Beard could have salvaged things by apologizing most sincerelyto Randi,Ā  the fans, his players, the school... errybody. And then seeking and performing anger management training.

    But he didn't.

    And here we are.

  3. It's fun to wade hip-deep through the argumentation. No doubt about it.Ā 

    The best part is that it'll never stop as long as the Beauty Contest System continues.Ā 

    Two teams? You're fucked because you're third most beautiful, biggest cup size, least knobby knees... whatever.

    Four teams? Fucked at fifth. Twelve teams? Left out at thirteenth.

    Let errybody in, at 128 teams. That's seven weeks of playoffs and nobody gets left out.

    it can really only work when the HC wants it to , often why the HC's non specialty side is the one with the stronger coordinatorĀ 

    Yep.Ā 

    The problem we have with Pheven-win Phteve is that he won't let it happen. As far as I've noticed, without looking it all up, the HC with offensive-side specialization is less likely to grab the brass ring than is the HC who came up on the defensive side. Not impossible, mind you, but less likely.

    SMU controls their own destiny. Since Pitt upset GT yesterday, if SMU beats Cal next weekend they'll be in the ACC title gameĀ 

    I am at least mildly gruntled by this.

    Sure. But no one likes to pay a fraud to go away. Committing fraud and wining Championships by fraud are badass. bk was a dick, didn’t fit in, didn’t really party, didn’t win shit. I’ve said plenty about sark but we have Big 12 championship to stick it to our ungrateful left behinds, two playoff appearances and a SEC CCG games. BK got beat by aggy and his team quit on him. Not wanting to pay him seems logical to all of us them.Ā 

    More accurate?
