How on earth was that a tackle in bounds?

If this game were called straight, you might expect to see a call for a late hit.

Fuck Big 12 refs
I would hope so. They're called "accountants." And I would expect that someone with that kind of money would have an accountant.

That struck me, too. There's not much ground clearance. And the entire thing looked really very low to the ground.

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
Jesus, I saw a cybertruck for the first time last night on 360, and it's even worse than the pictures indicate. I don't think I had seen a photo of the thing at night, but it's headlight configuration is completely absurd. It's just one long lightbar on the top of the (non-existent) grill and then two little lights down where fog lamps might ordinarily be.

We did something very similar early in World War II. Under the Neutrality Act, we could not fly military aircraft to a delivery point within a combatant. So we'd fly Lend-Lease planes to airfields very close to the Canadian border, and the Canadians would cross and tow them across to an airstrip in Canada.

Way too early, down and dirty 2024 House elections thread
- The Amazing Race 35
You wanted that team gone because the editing was done to make you want that team gone. That team was the "heel." But they played the heel only because that's how the producers edited the footage after the race was concluded. And it made sense to make that team the heel knowing that they kept tenaciously sticking around through non-elimination legs, which ended up infuriating you (and probably me) and made for good television. Look at the last leg, though. Do you think they're going to have that dance troupe come in a day early on the spur of the moment? Do you think they'd be able to have that ballroom available a day early with no notice? Fuck no--this shit is planned out months in advance. And maybe you plan for that ballroom to be booked for eight hours, but that doesn't mean you can change the booking the day beforehand.- Shart 2023: The Quickening
In my household, the proper name of a poster on this very site is used as the word defined as "to shart oneself" after a particularly infamous incident at a Dallas-area country club. As in, "Fuck--I had to race back to the office after having lunch at the Chili Parlor because I was about to @DDD Dad myself."- The Amazing Race 35
But not really, because you have to have all this shit set up. You have to have all the people in place at the challenges, and the venues of for the challenges need to be shuddered to the public/their normal operations. You can't just have teams showing up a day earlier than anticipated because the producers decided at the last minute that a particular team was in danger of elimination. And for the record, I'm very skeptical of the hypothesis that non-elimination legs weren't pre-set at the beginning of the race. Fan favorites are only fan favorites because of how the producers edit their footage after the race is concluded. So they're not worried that any particular team is going to get eliminated. They're going to edit the footage to make the surviving teams more popular.- The Amazing Race 35
I don't agree. As noted above, the non-elimination legs always seemed timed to avoid eliminating a fan-favorite or otherwise interesting team. Probably just coincidental, but it raised the prospect that the results were rigged. With the "keep racing" legs, there's no possibility of that. They have to have the challenges up and running well in advance. So there's no way the producers can make a last-minute "let's make this a non-elimination leg" decision to preserve a favored team. As to this last leg, I think we all saw what that long flight from India to Frankfurt in coach can do to one's mental acuity and temperament. Now's when we get more fights and more muddle-brained decisionmaking.- Dallas Stars 2023-2024 Season Thread
Playing Minnesota will cure a lot of what ails a power play.- tipping scenario
Ok--so in this scenario there's a big question that I think we could use some insight from current/former waiters and bartenders. GF ordered a bottle of chardonnay. I assume she then took the bottle to the table and drank that for the rest of the mean, right? So your waiter would've sold you the bottle of chardonnay at the table had you just ordered two glasses at the bar. But instead, he missed out on that sale (and the resulting tip) because you got your drinks at the bar. So the question is this: do the bartenders share their tips with the waiter? I know in most places, the waiters are expected to tip out the bartenders. I don't know that I've ever heard of it going the other way. So my suspicion is the answer is "no." If that's the case, then I short-tip the bartender a little bit and I tip the waiter on what he would've gotten had I ordered the bottle from him. So in practice, let's say the bottle was $100 (just trying to make the math easy). Ordinarily, I would tip the bartender $20. But in this scenario, I might tip the bartender $5 or $10 on the bottle and tip the waiter at my table $10-15, depending entirely on how much time I spent at the bar with that bottle and whether GF ordered another glass at the table after finishing that bottle.- Texas vs tcu - 6:30pm on ABC
Thank god for that false start- Texas vs tcu - 6:30pm on ABC
I’m just going to keep shit-talking this team. You’re welcome.- Texas vs tcu - 6:30pm on ABC
So we’re just going to play like shit tonight and that’s just going to be the deal, huh? Great. Cool.- This is a man. He's over 40. He's a man.

Nope. So I guess we're left with the conclusion that Tuesday probably doesn't tell us too much about what is going to happen in 2024.- YESSS, FINALLY!!! - Masters of the Air - The 8th Air Force, Spielberg, Hanks, Goetzman (Crew behind Band of Brothers, Pacific)
Jesus--you're just like a Bad-Take Machine, aren't you?- 2023 off year elections and primaries
I think that's quite apparent. But that's only going to last so long. I don't think you can pull off a front-porch campaign in the 21st Century. I mean, yes and no. Did we really see anything Tuesday that is inconsistent with a national R+2 environment in 2024? I'm not sure that we did. - The Amazing Race 35
