Gun to your head: name your favorite book ever
I'm not a huge fan of Clancey and that is one of my favorite books.

Gun to your head: name your favorite book ever
I watched the mini series and enjoyed it. I generally don't read that kind of stuff (prefer fantasy with all the majic and everything), but I keep thinking I should give it a try.

2026 Surly 10,000 Pushup Challenge
I'll join in on pushups. I may end up dropping as I hurt a shoulder last year and I haven't really done my strength traning in upper body since. Mainly just working on flexibilitiy and such. But I'll give it a shot!

Scifi/Fantasy Book Recs
I read them for the first time a few years ago. They absolutely hold up. There are a very few technology things that aren't really valid anymore (can't think of specific examples), but not many.

Count me in. And because I'm a terrible parent, will there be children's sizes?

Retro Gaming
I picked up a 29" JVC a few years ago to use for retro gaming, but I've never actually set it up! Might try that over the holidays. I installed a bunch of emulators on my Shield which was fun. Really just wish I had more time to play (and more friends that wanted to play!)

Diego Pavia - The Chihuahua that thinks he's a Mastiff
Yes, but she gave them all the clap

The CFP ruined college football.
Maybe that has changed, but that was not the case in the Holiday Bowl years. The article was pretty explicit about how all that stuff I mentioned was being paid for by the team and thus resulting in a net loss for the teams.

The CFP ruined college football.
Unless it's changed, it's also insane how much and what they spend money on. I remember one of our Holiday Bowls an article broke it down. One of the main line items was buying a PS2 and 5 or 10 games for every player. Another was leather jackets with the Holiday Bowl logo on them (would they even wear those after the game?) All sorts of stuff like that. I get that it was a way to essentially pay players, but then don't go complaining how you lost money on it.

I understand why teams that have coaching changes are dropping bowl bids, but I don't get why any of those are.

The CFP ruined college football.
CFP didn't ruin college football. It's not perfect, but the last two seasons have been exciting to the last game. In the BCS and 4 team era, it was just maybe 1 or 2 teams arguing about if they should be in, and we all complained about seasons like 2003 when an undefeated major conference team got left out. By the mid teens, you had situations like we had in 2019. A break out season (at least we thought), but not good enough for the playoff, so we go to the Sugar Bowl! We're excited.... and a large chunk of both our and Georgia's starters opt out. For the FUCKING SUGAR BOWL! Yeah, teams and players are opting out of bowl games still, but 12 teams are going in full force into the CFP (well maybe 11, not sure how Ole Miss is looking these days). We've had excitement through the season and a lone loss didn't suddenly make your season a failure. The CFP needs tweaks, but this is a vast improvement overall.

True. My father was a thief, but firmly believes possession is 9/10ths of the law. Spoiler though, I drank those bottles too!
