  1. You made a conscious decision to use “uneducated” over “black” didn’t you?
  2. Had he prepared all week, I still would have rather seen Arch get the experience over seeing our greatly overpaid and overrated QB shit his pants in a showcase game which proved to be a huge wasted opportunity. QE can’t connect on a deep ball to save his life. At least Arch has a chance to. Three weeks ago, I would have said that QE gave us the best chance to win. But, after his poor play in the last two games, I’m just ready to move on. Maybe he turns it around. He’s running out of chances.
  3. Dude I know you have had a nice time throwing your grenades on this thread. I personally think your act is some kind of performance art that is leaving you cracking yourself up as you roll on the floor. However, the thing underlying all the ridicule you are getting on this board is that the things you are saying are so dumb, uninformed and just defy common sense that I refuse to believe that anyone could actually internally use as a rationale for voting for Trump. But, if you are for real, then I think you are the poster child for why we need to develop critical thinking curriculum for all of the nations schools.
  4. And also a sign of dementia which crippled his father and is genetic.
  5. I work in a very commodity reliant field. I know this to be a fact. Covid caused shortages. Prices went up because of scarcity of goods. Retailers had to pay more which the end result was inflation of price. Now cost of commodities have gone down. However, retailers have not reduced consumer prices at all, or at best, not in proportion to the drop in commodity prices. I can attest that it is not lost on retailers, for example restaurants, that the consumer needs to get used to the idea of the $25 per person lunch. For the most part, we have. Corp profits generally reflect this. Her answer should be some variation of this along with the successful admin efforts that did bring inflation in many areas down.
  6. I can’t remember the name of the movie but Long Dong Silver was in it and I was @ 10. My feelings of inadequacy lasted a lifetime. I pretty much learned how to properly use curse words after sneaking into Every Which Way But Loose.
  7. It works.
  8. As I mentioned, I got to check out practice today. I don’t think much can be gleaned from drills and scrimmage, but I’ll just mention some of my thoughts. I’m a fan of basketball, not an expert so my observations are rudimentary. It looked like to me the emphasis was on tempo. A lot of new faces and still trying to figure out who was who. I did notice Weaver making quite a few outside shots which was good to see. The hustle is still there. I’m always amazed at how high he can get off the ground. I’ll be curious to see what others think but Shedrick to my eyes, looked like he was playing at a much lighter weight than last year. He seemed to be moving much better than last year so hopefully he is over all the injuries. Looking at the body types of the players I don’t think we are going to be pushing anyone around down low. As I said above, Kent really caught my eye as standing out. Johnson has a nice shot and during a break he went around the arch and made pretty much all but a couple of threes. The players did seem supportive of each other and generally seemed to work well together. It may be that it’s going to take some time to really get the chemistry going. I say that because I did see some really good passing under the bucket but unfortunately the passes seemed to be a real surprise to the recipient. While the assistants ran some parts of the practice, RT was super engaged and hands on. I really enjoy seeing games at Moody and it did get me excited for the season.
  9. I saw some of practice today and that was my impression as well.
  10. That made me think of my mother who made me promise to put it in her obituary that in her 85 years she never voted for a Republican.
  11. Actually her plan excluded an important point that was in his. Trump’s version created a huge loophole where executive bonuses could be classified as tips. Harris’ was limited to the types of workers whom you would normally think of as being tipped.
  12. Honestly didn’t see that coming. But, gold star for speaking your truth.
  13. It’s not like he isn’t being paid a ton of money.
  14. I did have a guy tell me that he was voting for Trump because he makes a shit load of money and the very last thing he wants is to pay taxes and he knows Trump will “take care of him”. Had another tell me that he thinks it is just terrible that our public schools are conducting sex reassignment surgeries without parents consent. I asked him why Abbott is allowing it to happen as Governor and he told me I was going to hell.
  15. When did Drudge start growing a brain?
  16. So he closed his business for a day and forwent profits to make an in kind campaign contribution for Dotard to make a commercial?
  17. Well, fuck them.
  18. The conference statement they put out was bullshit. They were not discussing anything until after they saw the reaction. Every official had gone back to their position on the field for the next play and didn’t come together until after the stoppage. Better get ready. This is not the last time we get screwed by them. They protect their legacy members.
  19. Shitty fans, conference office that meddles in outcomes of games, and generally terrible academics. I fucking hate the SEC.
  20. So you are blaming the possibility of Trump being elected on campaign consultants as opposed to just accepting that 40% of our population is just racist or dumb? Ignoring the fact that all you have to do is turn on the tv and see R’s only agenda is making the electorate fearful and playing on the human tendency to always wanting to believe that someone is lesser than them? Not sure that I buy that.
  21. And the fact that their new Jesus is orange makes that all the more crazy.
  22. That’s not a bad take but I think the country is more racist, dumb, and disengaged than you are factoring in.
  23. I haven’t seen much evidence of that.
