    That's not true at all.  You just grab the bottle by the neck and sling it overhand, letting the centrifugal force keep the liquid in the bottle as it spins.

     

    Uhhh, or so I would infer based on my vast knowledge of physics.  Yeah.  That's it.

    I hate to tell you this but if you grab the bottle by the neck the sling it overhand the centrifugal force will shoot the water right out of the neck because the bottle will be rotating with the base on the inside and the neck on the out side

    Correct, this eliminates the possibility of fumbling for a touchback.

    You sure?  He got the touchdown because the goal line is extended past the pylon. Seems logical that a fumble would have the same extended goaline and be a touchback. Not going to try to look this one up. No clue how to create a search question with an extended goal line

    By definition the runner would have to fumble the ball before it breaks the plane of the goal line extended (or else it would be a touchdown). If the runner is no longer in possession of the ball then the goal line extended no longer exists. So the ball is simply fumbled out of bounds without having entered the end zone.

    No. If for instance he had fumbled after being out of bounds (and didn't touch the pylon), the ball would be brought back to the point it crossed the sideline.  The rule is specific about this. The pylon is a separate special rule. The pylon is considered out of bounds. The moment a player touches the pylon, they are out of bounds. However, when they touch the pylon, the goal line also extends beyond the sideline markers just as if their feet were in bounds but the ball was in the outside arm out of bounds. That means that if Arch had touched the pylon BEFORE the ball crossed the plane of the endzone, it would have been a dead ball at wherever the ball was when he touched the pylon. Again, diving at the pylon is actually wrong. You should dive out of bounds and extend a leg or arm horizontally to touch the pylon. 

    Here is the rile

    ARTICLE 1. It is a touchback when:
    a.    The ball becomes dead out of bounds behind a goal line, except from an
    incomplete forward pass, or becomes dead in the possession of a player on,
    above or behind their own goal line and the attacking team is responsible
    for the ball being there (Rules 7-2-4-c) (A.R. 7-2-4-I, A.R. 8-6-1-I-III).

  3. I usually just say Bah Humbug because Christmas sucks and I hate it.  The decorations suck.  The music sucks.  It’s an over commercialized bag of shit perpetuated by greedy corporations.  Even the fucking eggnog sucks.  Fuck the pressure to give presents and pretend to be happy about the shit someone gives you.  At least I don’t have to spend all night Christmas Eve putting shit together now.

    It’s unclear how Banks — who is the assistant head coach, tight ends coach and special teams coordinator for the Longhorns — met Thomas.

     

    Family friend probably. 

     

    At least I didn’t marry one with a monkey

  5. Actually A & M doesn’t stand for anything anymore.  aggy removed agricultural and mechanical from their legal designation and the A & M are just letters now.
