  1. Sure, as I mentioned, I don't discount that this is disinformation. But in your specific examples, why would the US government "fake" and "fool" our own pilots over our own military installations and ships? Where is the motive for that? Take the New York Times videos, one of which is almost 20 years old. These craft were observed visually, on radar, and on other military systems. We also classified the footage for over a decade. Why would we be putting on a show for China/Russia and then classify the data and hold onto it for years? That makes no sense to me.
  2. There is a zero percent chance in my mind this is foreign tech. This is not how the US government would react if China/Russia were operating probes or surveillance drones over our sensitive military bases. Look at how we reacted to the Chinese high-altitude surveillance balloon. And putting aside the argument whether the crafts that have been observed would help Russia and China (they clearly would), I think the bigger point is does anyone actually believe they could be 100 years ahead of us in this area without any of the intermediate technologic steps necessary becoming public/commercialized? I very much believe that some of this is US disinformation, although I can't guess at what their angle is. Some is our tech - we hid the stealth bomber for almost two decades. But I don't think all of it is, and then the question becomes what the heck are we observing?
  3. Yeah, but the alternatives are someone has learned to travel faster than light speed or all these sightings are disinfo or foreign tech. I don't think it's foreign tech - if it was China, they'd have invaded Taiwan and if it was Russia, they wouldn't have spent so much time fucking around in Ukraine. I don't discount disinfo, but if it is truly "something else", I think an advanced civilization hiding somewhere nearby (including in the oceans) is more likely than one that has mastered transversing the galaxy. All the limitations we think exist are all viewed through the lens of our existing technology/understandings, which may not apply to a civilization with a head start. Think about how far we've come in just a short period of time. We went from the Wright brothers to walking on the moon in approximately 70 years, a blink of an eye.
  4. Taaffe has turned into a damned good player. Not a damned good player *for a former walk on*, but a damned good player full stop. He's improved every year he's been here and is a plus player on our defense. I never thought I'd type that.
  5. Totally. I don’t dismiss the undersea theories either for just this reason. It’s just far more likely than someone coming outside of our solar system.
  6. Yep. Stadium was always empty. It was super sad.
  7. +1. When I was in school, the majority of season ticket holders were Alabama fans who bought the season tickets because it was cheaper than the single game for UA/Vandy.
  8. Stewart looked great in those highlights, but who tf is that QB? He was throwing dimes
  9. This is what I do and it's quite reliable.
  10. I see Bibi was very dedicated to the White House's cease fire plan. He's embarrassing us at every turn.
  11. Definite roll of the dice.
  12. He should really change the permissions on his document management system then.
  13. Michigan had absolutely no business winning this game lol. The DL saved them.
  14. What moron went through Spring ball with these Michigan QBs and was like nah I don't need to get a portal QB. I would take Matt Merrill over either of these dudes
  15. They also bumped up Bo Barnes significantly - he's on the fringe of being a 5 star (#33).
  16. Quinn's reaction makes me think he at least thinks it could be more than a short-term thing...we're now one play away from the Trey Owens experience in the SEC.
  17. Maybe Trump can lend Paxton some toothpaste.
  18. I suck at roasting vegetables which is maybe the easiest task on the planet. I always end up crowding the pan and steaming them.
  19. An AI chatbot is more authentic than Hillary. That was part of the problem.
  20. No it isn't. Putting aside what a stupid fucking law it is, if you bothered to read the article you linked, that law doesn't take effect until 2025.
  21. For all the people defending the cops on this thread, I'm eagerly awaiting an explanation as to why Calais Campbell got cuffed.
  22. It's 31-6 against a top ten team on the road?
  23. Almost outgained by Gunnar Helm
  24. At least someone has gotten paid for hosting a Trump rally.
