    It’s a goddamned Stetson open road. And there ain’t no motherfucking feather.
  2. Ghost of LL
    Ok—back on the road. Hopefully no more stops.

    Gerik’s has been consumed. But goddamned if I couldn’t make it twenty more miles up the road before my old man bowels got the best of me. So now I’m sitting here in the shitter at Buccee’s. Arrival time now slightly delayed.

    Goddamn, that’s funny. I hadn’t noticed that. It’s muted and we’re bullshitting.

    Let’s go, bitches—it’s motherfucking Gameday!

    To that point, Harris appears to be polling better than Biden did among white people (and particularly white people over the age of 45. If you tell me that Harris is picking up even 2 points among white people over 45, then I don't care if she drops 20 points among Black men.

    Stay outside the Fair if you're looking for scalp tickets (and, as warned above, everything is electronic). The game ticket is also your ticket to the Fair, so sellers should be outside. If you can't score a ticket, go over to Craft & Growler on Peavy just across the street from the Fairgrounds.

    He's 15. I would say he'd love it, but the reality is that he'll probably be watching TicToc the entire way.
  11. Ghost of LL
    I know, right?

    Off topic, but I wanted to make sure you erudite motherfuckers saw this wonderful opportunity to spend six hours in a car Saturday with me and Brisket. He'll be on the ledge. I'll be pumping sunshine. It'll be great.

    Cross-posting from the Best Buy board, but Son of GOLL, @Brisketexan, and I are making a thunder run up to Dallas Saturday morning with a Saturday late afternoon, and we have a spare seat. It's free to the buyer of kolaches and Slim Jims. First row west side upper deck at about the goal line. Let us know your playlist and opinion on whether mustard or ketchup goes on a corny dog. ETA: So @Macanudowas the first to jump in. So here we go tomorrow morning. In preparation, I'm going to Maudie's tonight for a fucking Strait Plate with double refrieds. Brisket's truck is going to smell like a Tijuana sewer by the time we reach Georgetown. @immamac--in anticipation of updates tomorrow, perhaps this thread should be moved to the general football board?

    He's made the calculation that he'd prefer to run against Harris in 2028 than try to run as a Republican after a second Trump term. He's not wrong. And he won't be the last one to make that calculation. I guarantee you we'll see other high Republican officeholders who might have presidential aspirations subtly undermine Trump over the next 29 days.

    You know--I know this wasn't directed at me. But as a condescending cunt myself, I find that I never do tire of it. I wonder if @closetojumping has had the same experience.

    And as I was telling @Brisketexan on Friday, I was kind of cheering a little bit for aggy for exactly this reason. The aggycoaster isn't very much fun if it doesn't go up. That and the fact that I just irrationally resent Missouri being in the SEC (or even having a football program, really). It's just a nothing program that plays in a nothing stadium. It has no redeeming value whatsoever. It only got into the SEC because the conference decided it needed an even number. Missouri ought to be playing Kansas every year. That's their rival. And the Big12 is the level at which they belong. Fuck Missouri.

    The thing that stood out to me about Missouri (apart from everything you observe about their wretched defense) is just how poor the offensive play design was. There were multiple plays in which they had two receivers within three yards of one another. And when that happened, aggy of course had three DBs in the area (and even then incompletions were a matter of luck). There's no reason for that type of play design. It's just awful. And it damned sure isn't akin to anything aggy would see from us. Can we just remember for one minute that we were playing MissSt with our fucking back-up quarterback. I get that our back-up quarterback is named "Manning." But he's still the back-up behind a starter who is significantly better. And even behind our QB2, we still beat MissSt by three touchdowns.

    And y’all thought this was going to be a boring day of college football.

    I’m starting to get real concerned about our trip to Nashville.
  20. Ghost of LL
    They may not get any television money, but damned if they’re not going to win the conference. It’s like when a big program pays a supposed cream puff to give them a September game, and the cream puff goes home with $1.5M and a W.
  21. Ghost of LL
    So I’m starting to get the impression that Missouri may not be very good.
  22. Ghost of LL
    Just popped into my head for some reason.

    What kind of Texan are you? You're supposed to grab your Colt, saddle up your horse, and join the posse that presumably was riding at dawn. I mean, if you had done that you'd at least have made it to Columbus by now.
  24. Ghost of LL
    Boy, that strawman sure took a thrashing. Well done, you. I don't have time to get into a tit-for-tat on accounting. As the article I posted noted, it is exceedingly difficult to count dead civilians in an active war zone. Let it suffice to say that there are many thousands of dead civilians, which is consistent with the means and methods we've all seen Israel using. And no, telling civilians to leave entire cities so that those cities can be leveled is not to Israel's credit. It smacks of collective punishment operating under the guise of civility. And yes--I think Israel is not doing an adequate job of policing its own war criminality. For just one (relatively very small) example of that, see Israel's inaction in prosecuting the WFK murders.

    "I mean, yeah--he killed a cop. But on the other hand, they shouldn't have woken me up at 4:53 AM to tell me about it. NOT GUILTY!"
