  1. Have you seen the pictures of his house in Norman vs his house in Manhattan Beach?
  2. Yeah. I agree. You gotta try to score something just to avoid all of the stats that have been flying since the game ended. Terrible optics to just give up like that.
  3. Yikes! That’s ridiculous. My ballot drop box is about a mile away. The county offices are about 45 minutes away without traffic.
  4. Seriously, is this not how it is in Texas? I only lived in Texas long enough to participate in two elections in the 80-90s.
  5. Does this guy walk with both palms facing backwards the whole time? Does he not swing his arms? Who walks like this?
  6. WTF? That last sentence was meant to say “if you don’t need…”
  7. There are a lot of places in there Bay Area that aren’t SF. We live in the East Bay in Moraga. But the whole area of Lafayette, Orinda and Walnut Creek are great. Of you Fing need to get into the city easily there are other communities to consider as well.
  8. More like an unguarded Sheep pen and a nightvision Game Cam.
  9. Oh wow. UC Davis is #1. I didn't know that.
  10. Evidently UC Davis is a great vet school.
  11. Tried to make a single-handed catch. Tips it to CB for an INT. Complains about the pass. Haha.
  12. This is what they’ve needed to do for a while. They just get away with being this gritty with “beloved” characters because they know that people will want their kids to be able to watch shows about Obi-Wan or Han Solo. Using unknown characters allows them to expand the tone of the Star Wars universe.
  13. Yeah. I don’t get what he’s doing. They never really show him interacting with his family so I don’t get the sense of decades of pent up hate and frustration like with Tyrion. He don’t have the background of poverty and trauma to motivate him like Littlefinger. He feels powerless and overlooked so his big plan is to kill his father, the Hand of the King, and his brother, who has lands to rule in hopes of possibly receiving favor or blackmailing the Queen, who might never have a son sit on the throne. Without sufficient backstory about his familial relationships it seems like he should be scheming more to advance his family’s interests over a Queen by marriage.
  14. I’m a big fan of this. It shows Sark was paying attention to everything. We all saw Bijan being tentative. I’m glad Sark told him to just run them over.
  15. Plus, other than the Pick 6, Harris is really accurate on the run. It was pretty remarkable.
  16. Looks like at the very beginning of that clip Sark says “This just happened?” Than after Sark says “That’s between you and me.” He says something like “He came right up to me.” So it sounds like they were reacting to what someone did after the game.
  17. I was hoping they’d just lure all the guys in and firebomb the whole area since Daemon is ostensibly fireproof.

    Even if they were able to secede without having to fight the US, how long would it take for the Mexican cartels to take over the whole state/nation do you figure? Tac vests over beer bellies will seem less cool when people are chopping off your neighbors’ heads.
  19. I'm pretty sure the US doesn't recognize dual-citizenship with Turkey. Turkey does accept dual citizenship from citizens of other countries. My wife is Turkish and is "dual citizenship" as well as my elder daughter, who was born in the USA.
  20. The weird thing with Casey is that his accuracy doesn't seem to drop THAT much when he gets flustered. Just enough that the balls are really hard to catch but everyone blames the receiver. This INT to end the game is a perfect example of that. I think that's why he gets more slack for his play than if he were just heaving it straight into the ground or DB's hands.
  21. Ain’t no probably about it. Dublin is a cool city. Take your “fired college football coach money” and hit the town.
  22. Oh the way back from a trip to Turkey we had a connection at a German airport (Frankfurt maybe). I ended up talking to a couple Kiwis who were motorcycle sidecar racers who had flown to Germany for a race. I rode at the time so we talked about bikes. I asked them why they were flying to LAX from Germany. They said that was the fastest flight home. Blew my mind frankly.
  23. To be fair, when they’re good it fills up. I moved to LA in ‘96 and became very close friends with a UCLA season ticket holder in FB and BB. The Rose Bowl was per full back in those days when they were good to nearly great. I’ve been to a lot of near-capacity regular season games at the Rose Bowl. Sure they’re more fair weathered fans than Bama but I can’t blame anyone for not wanting to take an hour+ bus ride to watch their team suck.
