  1. Return to reading class. Then try reasoning class. It would be idiocy to continue with a QB who played as poorly as Manning did Saturday. I'm neither suggesting he be pulled or that I expect him to be pulled, Skipper.
  2. Actually, I think your characterization vindicates Sark more than condemns him. The performance was so spectacularly bad (I agree with your description), that it's difficult to imagine what a coach could have done about it. Manning did not belong on the field in the role of QB. I'm not hating. I want him to work out. Leaving Manning in the game was the only decisive choice, IMHO, that falls on Sark. I can't even name our second team QB, but he would have been better. If there were no other factors such as Manning's psychological strength and merciless public opinion, Manning should have been pulled. The only reason you don't bench him is because you feel he is your best chance for a great season and that benching him would damage him and the hopes of a great season. If we get into conference play and Manning plays nearly as poorly as yesterday, I say pull him.
  3. I guess coach-hating is addictive. It's absurd to think Manning looked in practice the way he did in the shoe, and Sark decided he was ready. This was not a failure of coach preparation unless you think a coach can prescribe and administer xanax. It wasn't footwork or mechanics that thwarted Manning. He choked horrifically. All the evidence you need for that is to review his performance in other games where the pressure was low. He was more than competent in those games. Had he played that well in this game, we likely win. The only difference was pressure. Similarly to his panicky showing against Georgia last year, the moment was too large for him. He faces pressure from the importance of a game and the expections almost cruelly laid upon him. I'll write this game off. He has a couple of cupcakes coming up, then he must face the next test. It's profoundly stupid to blame Manning's performance on Sarkisian. Fourth downs are another matter altogether.
  4. Aggie fans clearly filled with anticipation after missing the SEC Championship Game by one play. They're all in on their Aggies.
  5. The Aggies have it figured out. They're ahead of the curve. Head of the class first rate thinkers! The only recruiting ranking that really matters is the one in June. Aggies get it. Claim success before the contest even begins! Spike the ball! National championship polls and ratings? You guessed it, the big one is before any games have been played! If a team, particularly tu who just happens to fit this ingenius historical analysis perfectly, wins a title without being predicted to win a title, that title is diminished and the team should be ashamed that they failed to start in the number one position. Summer when there are no games is where it's at. The dear old Fightin' Texas Aggies from Texas won three MNCs in a single summer 13 years ago without playing a game. They're way ahead of everybody out there in College Station.
  6. Whoever cast the women in that show would be quite welcome to cast the ones in my life. Old, young, exotic whatever. I don't recall this shot, but it pretty much justifies Western Civilization.
  7. Talk about wearing out a word because you're a simpleton, exhibit one;
  8. Yes, Democratic Party, do something! I'm getting bored laying around on my nuts doing nothing. Save me!
  9. As for last year, Notre Dame lost the following week at home to Northern Illinois University. Remember how they discredited our win at Alabama a few years ago? That wasn't the same Alabama team as later in the season! Also, Olin dared not utter the name of near-nemesis, The Bowling Green Seniors.
  10. Which of the above groups have real cause to worry that someone wishes them harm? Which of the above groups are threats to the republic? Thank you for your attention to this matter.
  11. No abuse of power here!
  12. Wow, somebody came up with a fresh photographic perspective to convey the story instead of the same people hugging and weeping followed by the candlelight vigil. Great photo. Surely some of the people outside the crime scene are outraged. How about a picture of that instead of constant victimhood. This is event is urgent (woman above) and more of an outrage than a pity. I think the press has decided that we, their audience, are in constant need of reassurance and calming. Show the dead. Show the blood. Show the rage. Show the whole story. @Zeus, I don't care about your links, so I won't click them. I guess that's all you have since Brother Rush is no longer there to feed you the dog vomit you can then regurgitate.
  13. No, no, no, no, Brisket. It's a one-way street thanks to brother Rush. When any person not a red-blooded capitalist white GOP commits an outrage, that person embodies the "left" or the delusional vision of liberals. We're all responsible. We're all enemies of the state. We individually cannot deny it, at least not to any affect on a Limbaugh GOPPER. However, when the elected national representative of the red-blooded capitalist white GOP denies an epidemic that kills hundreds of thousands or rapes a chick, that's no reflection on GOPs. It's fake news or liberal lies which amount to the same thing. Or they say they didn't vote for that, so they're okay. I thought about negging Zeus for the dishonesty of blaming the left for Catholic assembly shootings, but he's likely no knowingly lying. He's a brainwashed jersey-wearer content that his team is winning big and rigging the rules to keep winning big. The funniest part is that he thinks he's on the side that is saving the country. I guess I could neg him for being a degenerate.
  14. 1 I suppose it is possible that their potential market may not make the connection between the colors used on their uniforms and those on the boxes. 2 The band is exactly the same on every cigar! 3 It sure does. They lose points and probably money from not having 12 in each box. Who doesn't want to be this guy?
  15. He writes a Why We Lose post every week for humor.
  16. Thank you. I have no idea what you mean.
  17. "Daddy went to all my soccer games! One day I hope to play for the Imperial Team!" Our kids will be so very proud of our efforts to thwart the traitors who bring down the republic.
  18. Ronald Reagan: While it is a commonly referenced quote, Ronald Reagan's precise phrase was slightly different and had a specific historical context. At a 1984 rally in Austin, Texas, referring to the Democratic Party, he said: "The national Democratic leadership is going so far left, they've left America". Ronald Reagan used the phrase "their value system is radically different from that of most Americans" in his famous "Evil Empire" speech on March 8, 1983. He did not use this phrase to describe his own values, but rather to criticize those he perceived as opposing traditional, faith-based American values. In the speech, delivered to the National Association of Evangelicals in Orlando, Florida, Reagan used the phrase to refer to secularists who he believed were trying to impose their own rules and regulations through government. In short, he was, advertently or otherwise, setting up a jihad. Righteousness to define the right. I truly loathe the man. Now, even worse than Nixon. He was the smiling, avuncular face stretched across the front of the hate engine. I scoff at the notion that they are cult these days. They're mujahadeen taking up the sword and taking Trump's mushroom up their asses to get at the real enemy: Ebil Dems. Liberal democracies are not transformed into fascist authoritarianism, IMHO. They are corrupted, destroyed, and displaced. Dick-ocracy. I like that. I think I particularly like that the metaphorical biggest dick literally has a tiny one.
  19. Trump's dad would have been proud to have her as a daughter if she were as described below. The language above is inflammatory and shows many signs of Trump's direct involvment in composing it. Most of the letter is written in active voice which government agencies prefer these days. Green above marks the places I suspect he had great say. I think vitriole is added throughout. She declared a place in one state as her permanent residence then purchased land in another state declaring it permanent residence [it's possibe that she already owned it, in which case she merely changed her mind. EGADS!]. This gross negligence in a financial transaction erodes her competence and trustworthiness and undermines Donald Trump's confidence in her integrity. I have a much firmer grasp of shamelessness than I did 8 years ago.
