  1. Would love to see some non-anecdotal support of these statements. Reads like confirmation bias to me.

    USMNT 2023

    This^ Shows lack of any leadership. He knew, or should have known, this would get out. Either way, fuck him. His crayon tactics require him to be a masterful CEO, which he clearly isn't.
  3. Go check out the divorce thread, plenty of women with issues. Can't strangle them even if they are crazy though.
  4. Did Deion set up JSU up for continued success or did he take a better job when offered taking a few good players with him? I actually have no idea. If the former though, why do you suspect things will be different this time? Perhaps he will hire some amazing assistants that could take over when he departs? I suspect he will either be an enormous bust or tremendous success but either way Colorado will be back to 2-10 when he is done being HC. Thankfully Boulder is a badass place to live even when football sucks ass.
  5. Rough week for Syracuse football. After a nice 7-5 season they lose both their OC (NCST) and DC (Nebraska) just a few days apart. I might just take some time away from football if I was Babers rather than bother putting that back together.
  6. Move on already. NU already has a new Sadist Daddy. We don't need Texas anymore to get annually embarrassed.
  7. "You are one ugly motherfucker". Dude is >70% neanderthal.
  8. The US will be underdogs in each game from here on out (captain obvious). That said, advancing to the semifinals isn't completely insane. The Netherlands have looked beatable during this WC as has Argentina who would likely await us.
  9. Oh, he's going to get plenty of "help".
  10. I wouldn't say we have been anemic in the offensive half. In fact, I think this team has more quality attacking than any US team I've seen in my lifetime. There is actual creative build up play and good ball movement. Our finishing, as mentioned, continues to be poor. Also somewhat new, our set pieces are complete garbage. Having one or two dangerous corners against the Netherlands would be fucking nice.
  11. Aaronson is great coming off the bench when you have the lead and want someone to press and run down everything. He is not a threat to score and can't create like our starters. He is a hustler that lacks some touch. When Pulisic and McKennie came off today our attacking midfield play died. We needed Reyna out there.
  12. Pure Bunker mode. Fuck Greg.
  13. Whose wife did Gio fuck? We need someone out there with a first touch and might be able to possess the ball.
  14. Bravo Vegas. Beat most of us by 0.5.
  15. Este. I’m in on it and don’t understand this line at all
  16. If she loses I've seen Requiem for a Dream and know where this is going.
  17. Good day so far, being it home Lane Train
  18. I’m .500 in cfb this year so I clearly know fuck all. More confident on Sunday’s. That aside today I took: Illinois -7 NU vs Illini Under 50.5 Ole Miss -2 Canes UVA Under 48.5 That last one was due to @40acredropout showing their work on a previous post so compellingly.
  19. As an NU fan can’t say I agree with NU +7.5. Illinois should control the line of scrimmage and run the ball at will. I took the under.
  20. Heading out to Vegas over Thanksgiving week. Am I going to need to reserve seats in a Sportsbook for Wed-Fri, or Sat, 6AM-3PM games?
  21. Rough 5 days for Tua. First he got concussed a back injury during the Bills game and now it looks like he got a concussion tonight. Some people in the Dolphins organization did him wrong.
  22. And typical classy response by Pujols “At the end of the day, I think that's why the fans come here -- to have a special moment of history. So if they wanna keep that baseball, I don't have any problem with that."
  23. Bo Pelini was without a doubt more successful than anyone since Solich. That said your W/L numbers above only tell part of the story. Final Rankings: Unranked, 14, 19, 24, 23, Unranked, Unranked. He was good at beating the teams he was supposed to and nobody else. That's not going to get it done if you also are one of the top 3 assholes in CFB at the same time. NU was never going to improve beyond fringe Top 25 team under his leadership. Take a look at his results post NU for more evidence. I wasn't a whole lot happier going 9-4 and finishing unranked than I am going 4-9 and finishing unranked. So I have no issue trying new coaches.
  24. Correlation vs causation. It's not even remotely that simple if that is what the producer of this chart is trying to suggest. Expanding media rights, streaming, one of the better coaches of all time retiring, switching conferences, and playing UT regularly guaranteeing one painful loss a season also played a role. Make a chart of USC's win percentage by year vs. average monthly LA temps and see what that looks like.
