  1. https://posh.vip/e/fyre How anyone thinks this is remotely a good idea is well beyond me...but I'm totally down for another documentary on how it goes down in flames
  2. Really didn’t think that one through all the way, hope he enjoys looking at Horns Up every time he takes a dump for the rest of his life
  3. Even if it seems highly unlikely, that would be quite the thing to see play out. SMU being so desperate they are willing to whore themselves out for nearly a decade for zero dollars easily the most amusing and yet believable detail here. Heck I would throw them at least tree fiddy to be in my wacky bicoastal conference...
  4. So are all those players really small and the one dude is normal D1 athlete sized...or are they all normalish sized and that 1 dude is huge?
  5. It's borderline Apple levels of magic how well Proton works most of the time. Cudos to Valve and the Proton team.
  6. Everyone who isn't in one of the prestige world wide conferences is going to be better off with this expanded CFP and collapse of the PAC and merger of its remnants into existing conferences. Heck even my lowly Texas State Bobcats have a shot, they put it together and win the Sunbelt sometime after expansion and they have a decent chance of snagging that 6th (maybe even 5th if AAC and MWC champs have crappy years) auto bid. ...which is why I really don't think the 6 autobids will last very long, will get cut down to 5 or 4 pretty soon. But for a few brief glorious years, everyone has a legitimately achievalbe goal of "win the conference, make it to the playoff"
  7. Have had a Steam Deck since last April (was in one of the middle preorder windows) and has been my only gaming PC since. Hadn't really touched PC gaming for years but had a fairly sizable back catalog of older games on Steam that just about all work fantastically on the Deck. Running it mostly handheld recently but at one point was using it docked quite often to play RTS games (Age of Empires and Starcraft) and some olderish Battlefield titles and even some Counter Strike on a bigger monitor with mouse and keyboard. Wish I had gotten the 512gb model or they had a 1TB option as 256 ran out quicker than expected even with multiple SD Cards as well for less frequently played games. Emulation of all kinds of older non steam games is fantastic through some of the available options like EMU deck Overall 120% satisfied, brought me all the way back into PC gaming after a long absence, and now can play games I would have never imagined playing on the couch, on the airplane, needing a break from work at the home office, waiting for dumb car shit to get fixed at the mechanic waiting room, etc.
  8. Who do we think Yormark called first: Nelly or Creed?
  9. Damn Big 12 schools out there killing rivalry games...when will the Realignment casualties end??
  10. Didn't even notice they left both Navy and Air Force out of this bogus conference...both of those better options than a good portion of this basket of misfit schools. Think you are right about Tulsa too, better than FAU and Temple at the very least. Not really better than Cal but at least Tulsa actually gives a shit about football.
  11. So lets just take the worst qualities of the AAC and the old CUSA, the nonexistant regionality and patchwork of misfit institutions, and crank it up to 11 by smashing together the AAC 11, PAC4 and MWC3...
  12. Just appreciate the woman who looks kinda like a younger Sandra Bullock with the nice cans man...
  13. https://www.actionnews5.com/story/12494578/exclusive-leigh-anne-tuohy-talks-about-sandra-bullock-adoption/ While its not a direct "we the Tuohy's adopted Michael Oher" quote (that may exist in the time period, just gonna be super hard to find now with all the stories on the inter webs from the last day and a half), going on a nationwide speaking tour about adoption including a televised commencement speech and writing a book about it sure dues seem like thats what they are trying to say
  14. Still of the opinion that the Tuohys crowing for all these years about adopting Oher when really they didn't and really had a conservatorship over him all this time is rather shitty. Might shake out that there was nothing legally wrong with what has gone on here... but still feels shitty. Time will tell. Bet the Tuohys wish they had just slipped Michael whatever his share of the movie proceeds would have/should have been at some point rather than get put on blast though, if they really had all that money from fast food joints would have been a pretty easy check to write to save themselves a headache.
  15. No CR but sometime between Nixon resigning and the 2nd plane hitting the WTC. Can't tell you exactly when but before that time America was mostly folksy, reasonably nice to one another, pretty racist but at least attempted to hide it except in the Deep South. After that time to the present day full ass tribal politics and "if you aren't with me, you are a Nazi/Commie/Fascist/etc and I hate you and everything you say" Really hope Oher doesn't go to his grave still being screwed by these scumbags the way Mike Leach went to his grave still fighting being screwed over by Tech/Scumbag administration at Tech circa 2009. RIP Mike. CJK5H.
  16. Hey at least J. Peterman's stolen valor story was cheeky and fun, not cruel and tragic like this shit...
  17. Crazy scumbag move by this family if this turns out to be accurate.
  18. I might be wrong but think I remember reading they have a fairly university friendly lease with the city on the dome. City is just happy to have a tenant that they can skim concessions revenue from but other than that and parking rev the university doesn't pay the city hardly anything for using the dome per game and they get to keep ticket and suite revenue.
