  1. Again, I’m puzzled because you’re arguing against literally the opposite of what he said.
  2. I would like the whole UT system to improve too, but no one is sending their kid to Ole Miss because it’s a great school. There are already multiple, in-state, public options that are equal or better outside of The University. You mention knowing a lot of these people in Houston-Ole Miss is no better than UH if academics are the only concern (it’s no better than UT Dallas either).
  3. I actually agree with you on the first sentence. But I don’t get the rest given that most of the posts on this thread are actually calling for them to play games etc. I’m not sure who you’re arguing with.
  4. [pedant]Do they want the fight song to go? Or The Eyes of Texas?[/pedant]
  5. I think I’ve posted a similar rant 2-3 times before when this has come up. The fact that “Standard Time” is now by definition not the standard irritates me more than it should. Pick a time, any time, and stick to it.
  6. My only quibble here is “a slice.” There’s no way I’d leave myself only one without polishing it off the night before, and there’s no way I’d limit myself to one if there’s more.
  7. Probably worse. His voice was described by contemporaries as things like shrill, sharp, almost falsetto.
  8. He says near the end “what is the real number who have been killed or injured BY these vaccines.” He went beyond implying to outright claiming.
  9. Quality games and compelling matchups are great. Half the first round games in a 16 team playoff typically won’t offer that. By that criteria, most mid-tier bowls would be better, in fact.
  10. Yeah, you do seem like you’re having fun.
  11. To even ask this is an implicit defense of Hitler. Shame on you.
  12. So is she getting that energy from yours or hers?
  13. Roman Hispania included modern day Portugal.
  14. I’m not sure a board devoted to college football is the best target for that sort of rant.
  15. Alternatively, you could just assume he remembers he went undrafted.
  16. Agree. I not only like the bowls, I much prefer that to these 16 team playoff proposals. Watching two relatively evenly matched, decent 9-3 teams who don’t usually play each other is much more interesting than the prospect of a #1 Bama vs #16 MAC champion.
  17. All I see here is yet another defense of Hitler.
  18. He’d have to make the roster. So I’d be very surprised.
  19. Exchanging verbosity for vapidity is no virtue.
  20. Obviously, you are only pointing that out because you love Hitler.
  21. No, I'm starting from a presumption that you are intellectually dishonest. You continue to demonstrate that in this exchange, as usual. There's nothing more that needs to be said anyway.
  22. Well no, that's not what I did. You asked, "Are those 'conservative?'" I simply pointed out, from your own source, that estimates vary widely, from 1 to 20 million. Of course they think the number is more likely to be toward the low end, given their own estimate of 1.5 million. It would hardly be reasonable for them to say, "We estimate that the number is 1.5 million, though something closer to 20 million is more likely." And, to your point, using their own estimate to prove that their estimate is more likely seems rather circular. At any rate, I wasn't attempting to prove that any number was more likely than another, just that estimates vary widely. I would say that on a scale of 1 to 20 million, 2 million is toward the conservative end. Perhaps you disagree with that.
