  1. 1. Texas football 2. Green Bay Packers 3. Houston Astros Gap 4. Texas basketball Big gap 5. All other Texas sports, which I cate about more abstractly than actually watch.
  2. If you need to shower twice a day, you must be filthy and/or extremely fat.
  3. I’d like more clarification from the op on what this is all about. Chad Morris was a very successful high school coach who moved to an effective college OC to HC at SMU where he improved every year to 2 dismal seasons at Arkansas. He’s fired and is back in high school. He was successful basically every step of the way till Arkansas and then he moved back down the ladder. I guess I don’t understand what we mean by an upward failure for him to “absolutely define the appellation.”
  4. I don’t even turn it up to 79 when I’m gone on vacation. If that makes me a gaping pussy, I don’t care. But I’m not on ERCOT either.
  5. That’s not just anecdotal-I read some research in the last few months that indicates the same thing. I’ll see if I can dig that up later.
  6. I’m pretty sure you misread that post.
  7. I know this isn’t your primary point, but that’s precisely why some people came to the New World: they not only wanted to escape persecution, they wanted to establish their own religion as official. Roger Williams in Rhode Island stands out as the early exception. Religious freedom as we think of it was foreign to them.
  8. Yeah, but they're Eagles fans. There's not a lot of daylight between him, Rich Kotite, and Chip Kelly if we are just talking relatively recent Eagles coaches. And none of those is even statistically their worst coach in my lifetime - that would be Marion Campbell. In fact, he's a great contender for the shortlist of worst ever: he went 34-80-1 across 9 seasons (including 2 stints with Atlanta! How did he get hired again???). He has the worst winning percentage of any NFL coach with over 100 games.
  9. Ray Rhodes is a strange choice to lump in with those guys. He was basically just a mediocrity.
  10. Read some more of her stuff. She’s clearly not a Republican.
  11. Lexington. And that’s the point. He leaves there in the last episode. His daughter is just a few months old. Fast forward 4 years in the epilogue, he’s in Miami, and she appears to be 4-5 years old. Which makes sense. Now we are another 4 years after that, and she’s suddenly 15. Even if you assume he didn’t leave Kentucky immediately (though it’s pretty clear in the finale he is) and stretch it out to him somehow just having left there in the epilogue, she can’t be more than about 12.
  12. The timeline doesn’t make sense. His daughter has aged a decade in the last 4 years.
  13. Meyer is more like Amber Heard: visibly past his prime and will likely crap in your bed.
  14. Carroll had an overall winning record, a division title, and two playoff appearances in 4 seasons. Saban was 9-7 and then 6-10. Those aren’t at all comparable even without the spectacular implosion off the field.
  15. No one credible-there a reason those guys don’t have jobs in academia. As historians go, they’re the equivalent of America’s Frontline Doctors. Which makes the Jesus mythicist posts extra amusing. (Obviously the bare existence of Jesus the man is a separate question from who he was.)
  16. It was a joke. Relax. (He responded to the defensive atheist who injects his disbelief and disdain for religion into every thread even remotely related to the subject and some not related at all but is totally not zealous why would you think that such a thing even exists?)
  17. So overzealous atheists are actually against reading?
  18. I’m confused by a couple of posts claiming Lobo liked to humblebrag. It wasn’t particularly humble.
  19. There was Cruiser and TheCruiser, I don’t remember which he was for sure. He’s not the airplane dipper.
