  1. My friend, if you could just put some indicator on these posts if I should be happy or not, I'd appreciate it. Where have you gone, George Gallup, the olds turn their ignorant eyes to you. Woo woo Worster. Woo woo Worster.
  2. My uneducated guess is that Harris and Walz and Buttigieg and the crew made it okay to say you don't like Trump and the GOP out loud particularly for wavering and reformed GOPs. I've got a yard sign up in Johnson City that I likely wouldn't have put up before. I'm kind of ashamed of that, but it's the truth. I wasn't afraid of those dickheads, I was just not wanting to stir up anything. Stupid and weak. I'd never have guessed Kamala Harris would catalyze all of this. Bless her! ETA: To be clear, I've never been a GOP. I've mostly been an embarrassed Dem voter.
  3. NIU beat Notre Dame and Bowling Green this season. Why aren't they #1?
  4. How long do we have to stay here? My mom was right about you. See if you can get one of the Secret Service guys to shoot me.
  5. I think he meant it the other way around, Sidney.
  6. 6. We need to let this thread go back to recruiting. The football board isn't really that bad today. All my points had been covered hours before I posted them here and fairly discussed.
  7. I don't think we'll give them the ball inside our 40 five times in the first half. Ewers has played better in big games before. Our whole offensive engine from Head Coach to IOL has played better in big games. I don't think the difference in our teams is some insurmountable gulf. I don't understand anyone not wanting another shot at Georgia.
  8. We been SEC-grinded. No hope. Aggies will pulverise all that remains. Please, Vandy, be kind in thy wrath! I expect a bloodbath. Burnt Orange Rage.
  9. Thanks for grounding us. This place has been downright euphoric since last night.
  10. I'll go down on this ship with you. I saw the same thing. The long pass being lower than normal percentage with Ewers generally means we waste a down. 2cd and ten sucks. Second and 7 or 8 makes running the ball a better option. Sometimes, you even get a second and 5 or 4. I fault Sark for dedication to his passing schemes even when we're not executing them well. After a shaky start with the passing game, we should have stuck to short pass and run for awhile. We do that pretty well and a drive isn't dependent on the success of the one great play. I'm an idiot in analysing this, but I do wonder if our poor execution of special plays early on is a reflection of us not being settled into the game yet. Hold off on the killer plays for a little bit. Ewers was the weak link tonight. I hate writing that.
  11. I hope to be forgiven for raising a purely football question on this recruiting thread, but the football board is a beating after a loss or even after a win sometimes. Am I wrong thinking that Ewers is bolting from the pocket without cause sometimes? Am I wrong thinking I see that sometimes he needs to step up? The first sack marked up against our LT likely would have been averted if Ewers' pocket presence was better. I don't blame Ewers for the blind side tackle that forced one of the disastrous fumbles. I did feel like he was not checking down through all receivers but, rather, zeroing in on one then going straight to the safety valve. He's off. We've seen him slice and dice Alabama in huge games and same with OU. I don't have the eye many of you do, but I don't just default to blaming the QB for everything. Georgia sure did a lot of targeting last night. Smart is an insufferable asshole to watch during the game. It will be nice to shut his mouth at some point. He's agrieved about something every goddamn play. Thanks for the forebearance.
  12. Yep. The announcers harped on the GA OL in the first half. They scored just about all of their points on 130 yards of offense. Forcing three field goals (two of them pretty long, their kickers are great) on short fields kept us tenuously in the game instead of totally out of it at the half. It's possible Georgia could have got those points anyway, but we were turning their QB over on longer possessions. The OL sometimes struggled with the rush, but sometimes Ewers bailed from a clean pocket or didn't just step up into it. It was wise of Sark to take him out for awhile. Still, in the fourth quarter, Ewers clenched up again. I'll be happy for a rematch should we get that shot.
  13. This thread has lost some of its savor with the loss. Their monster win over one-win MSU probably means we'll drop out of the top 25 and that they should assume our spot at number one. Scared little bitches remain scared little bitches: Also, top of their board. Seven of 12 UT related although #6 is likely a troll. ETA: Update 8:43am
  14. Had we quit or continued with total offensive ineptitude in the second half, I'd be more concerned. The crowd sounded great. We fought back. It was a game of huge magnitude. I'm more concerned with Ewers' pocket presence and us fucking up trick plays and inability to complete passes on clever pass plays than recruiting right now. Also our failure on "aggressive" fourth downs. I don't want to forget about that.
  15. I'm sure Saban and Kirk went with the pulse reference. Gee, you think playing the number 4 team will tell us something about Texas? It's almost as challenging as facing the number 9 team (which we did by Aggie logic), or losing to the number 9 team (Aggies did) or facing a senior-laden Bowling Green team (the team the Aggies squeaked by is not the same team that has since lost to Old Dominion and Northern Illinois who should be number one). If If only we'd dominated our weaker than expected schedule as the Aggies have done theirs. Woe! Woe, I tell you! Woe! They are getting a lot of juice out of crushing an overrated Missouri team that quit after the lineman downfield call. ETA:
  16. This is the parrot characterization of the season: Sometimes, they refer to "half a pulse," which, if I'm not mistaken, is the same thing as a pulse. Maybe their general medical science knowledge is broader than my own. Yes. We all wish the world would see us as Aggies. Conformist, fake-friendly, dishonest, goofy as shit, yet sure they're the best of the world and everybody wishes they were them. This guy hits all the important bits in good English! The green part sounds like projection of the general misery of living in the shadow of a greater entity. Not sure of the insult in Vintz. Also not sure what one must do to earn a belt buckle. Going after Houston's own Beyonce? That's Texan. The University of Texas in the Texas Capital is the least Texas place in Texas? Shameless frauds? Can't even do the fascist salute right. Check out the farmers!
  17. Wrong game and paradigm, my friend. We've been awash in reasons since 2016.

    Proud to be Dying in the Heat. It this a stupid decision by Gay Pride leaders or a murderous insistence on the part of whoever issues permits?
  19. I think the first time he called her Nicki Bailey. Don't forget just about every legal scholar wanted that, too. Gimme the odds that this moron has a clue about who Nelson Mandela was.
