  1. I will never understand doing this. So incredibly weird and pointless.
  2. He’ll be there in spirit on his pirate ship doing maneuvers or something. That guy’s ghost will haunt aggy every single year that they field a football team.
  3. Walker didn’t get Helo’s blessing. Using his prediction history across the board on anything means that Walker will win a Heisman and be in the NFL Hall of Fame one day. Skattebo was, as anyone with a semi-functioning brain could tell you, not recruited by anyone of note. He earned everything he has received because he kept getting better. Skattebo loves contact and although Walker’s films do not show it, when he took contact on runs he would carry some guys with him. I watched every game from his sophomore year since Lampasas broadcast all of them on their YT channel and he would take hits and keep his legs moving even with a tackler on him. The thing he has never really done is catch passes out of the backfield. Not in his bag so to speak.
  4. Tim Roth is a favorite of mine. Loved him in the Tin Star series. He just kinda plays himself in most of the stuff he does. At least it seems that way to me. Kinda like Jason Bateman playing the same person.
  5. Plains, Trains and Automobiles. Got to see it on the big screen at Regal. I had not seen the movie since I was a kid when we rented it at a video store. The scene where Candy drives the wrong way and they are sitting on the trunk watching the car burn had me crying laughing. I don’t know why, but that got me the most. Candy and Martin together was just a great pairing. Martin cussing out the woman at the rental car counter was hilarious as well. Beautiful movie.
  6. For his size he’s got pretty good speed. I’m glad he will get a chance to play for the Horns. It doesn’t work out, well, go play for ASU. I think he’ll be fine at UT though.
  7. He spent his first two years playing for Lampasas. He’s a really good downhill runner that takes on contact willingly. Some backs try to always avoid it, but he likes to take hits. Teams need guys like this that are big and having surprising speed in the open field. Had he stayed at Lampasas the last two years for them would have looked a lot different. Good for this young man in securing a spot with Texas. He has earned this offer on the field through getting better every year. He also has a former teammate in Ty Johnson that also left Lampasas. Johnson is probably the best athlete to suit up for the Badgers since Johnny “Lam” Jones, but he transferred to Crean Lutheran in SoCal this past spring where he’s now a 4 Star WR and a top 10-15 player in California for 2027. Why Texas has not formally offered him as well is a bit of a mystery since Oregon and Georgia both have.
  8. I’d like for them to beat Rape Memorial High School in the regional final, but that’s a tough ask to do it two years in a row.
  9. I don’t think it’s necessary to see it in a theater. It won’t add anything to the story if you do.
  10. Wish Udoh had a better season statistically this year. The offense was a mess most of the year with Leavitt being injured for a good chunk of it and then having to let Sims take the snaps after that. I will give the guys credit for being 8-3 when they could’ve folded the tent early in the year. This is a better coaching job by Dillingham and the staff than last year’s run was. If he wins the Arizona game and whatever exhibition game we get sent to play in he will have a team that goes 10-3. Dillingham is worth twice what he is getting paid.
  11. No one should think this. Tech should get the only bid. BYU and Utah should go join that ridiculous new version of the PAC-12. BYU has played one good team the entire season and they got embarrassed. Utah gave up 47 today to one of the worst K-State teams since the heyday of the Ron Prince era.
  12. Should happen and should be fun to watch transpire.
  13. Our entire conference has one team that’s good. Utah and BYU are both way overrated and should not be anywhere near the top 20. ASU would have made two good teams, but no Leavitt killed that. We should not be ranked. Some of these teams in this conference need to just fold up the football program.
  14. Absolutely. If not the stuff with David Hogg, remember that she had the Statue of Liberty post with a burqa over it. She didn’t realize why COVID-19 was called that. She also compared it to the Holocaust. The whole Jewish Space Lasers thing. She’s Q-anon. All of that is just a normal Tuesday for her. Wanted you to have every single kind of rep on your post, including a negative one that gives you the “rep cycle.”
  15. That guy looks like a fascist Richard Karn.
  16. I think I am going to try to watch this again tonight. The action scenes are gory, intense and yet they will still make you laugh. I am not sure an American film maker would be as inventive as these Finnish folks are, but then again they did get to actually kill and mostly embarrass the Soviets once upon a time in the Winter War. Even if you do not like theaters I think this is a movie you should see on the big screen. They squeezed a lot of action in 90 minutes.
  17. Not able to watch this game at the moment, but I see West Plains is only up 14-7 on Lampasas at the half. That the Badgers have made this competitive is quite the accomplishment. It’s be cool if they could win considering their season ended last year to this same team when they got beat 63-35 I believe.
  18. I had a history teacher in 8th grade who had been a camera man on that show before he left Hollywood.
  19. Don’t disagree. He’s definitely spooked right now by the media not stopping with the questions. In a world where things function somewhat normally he’d be out on his backside and facing prison. However, we have to deal with reality and what is in front of us. My best guess is if he sees it all start to unravel then he’ll get really desperate. Usually that means starting a new shooting war against some country that has a military roughly as strong as the corps of cadets at aggy. I think the road ahead is going to be nuts mostly because of ICE and now seeing him wish death on Democratic members of the house and senate. Again normally these words get you ejected to the nether reaches of the middle of the Sahara, but not in this current timeline.
  20. There is a threshold he can’t cross. This is the one. Not anyone of the 1000 other ones he crossed, destroyed or set fire to. This singular one is the one where the cult leader winds up getting the Mussolini treatment if there was verifiable evidence on video of him doing what anyone with half a brain knows he did. Something about seeing the cult leader doing this is the eject button for the clowns. Whatever does it is fine by me, but I don’t see anything happening here that would lead to a moment like that.
  21. The only way and I mean the ONLY path that leads to this ending TFG in the White House is someone going rogue, getting any evidence implicating TFG such as videos of him in action with these underaged girls and getting it to someone that will disseminate them from a safe location. I would be completely opposed to that happening on the grounds of videos with minors in them being sexually assaulted should not be made public. All it means is any potential evidence implicating TFG will never see the light of day unless Epstein had his own cache of videos that someone has access to that no one knows about. This will all lead to mostly nothing in my opinion, but I am open to being wrong and this finally ridding us of TFG.
  22. Not entirely sure it would matter much. He's better than Muncy, cost is not an issue for LA and again everyone is swinging for the fences. We just had a catcher hit 60 homers with a batting average in the .240's. He goes there he'd succeed due to the players around him and the meatball pitches he'd get depending upon where he is at in the lineup.
  23. So who did he piss off to get removed?
