  1. In all fairness to Jerry Jones, he's a much better businessman that Trump. Trump told a story once that he had the chance to buy the Cowboys but passed. That story is absolute horse shit but, if true, it would be one of the dumbest decisions ever. He was bankrupting casinos at that time if memory serves correct. Jerry paid like $200M for the Cowboys and the stadium and it's all worth $10B now.
  2. This here. Financially and ego wise, Jerry cannot let the Cowboys tank even if it makes sense in the long run. A 10 win team that loses in the first round of the playoff keeps them relevant and if anyone can lose in the first round after winning 10 games, it's Dak.
  3. By the time he retires, he'll have made between $500M and $750M on and off the field combined and have maybe 3-4 playoff wins to show for it. (He has 2 now.) Do not feel sorry for him.
  4. Do they put you out for an endoscopy?
  5. OU offense is terrible and the coaching is even worse. I don't understand the scheme or the play calling.
  6. Will people stop pretending that Deon Sanders is a legitimate head coach? They're awful.
  7. Maybe they're allocating only a few lower end models to some mass chains then. Not sure....
  8. I may me wrong, then. Although, those models and price points aren't on the Lucchese website. Maybe they're old inventory and they haven't sold through yet....? Someone up thread posted that Cavender's gets a very small allocation so maybe that's it. I didn't think they were getting any and that was pretty recent.
  9. Harris should declare herself the winner on ejection night if it’s obvious.
  10. That's the same guy that bagged on Simone Biles.
  11. I liked him when the book came out. The more I've learned about him lately, I think he's a latent but self hating gay. (Pretty text book, actually.) About his eyes, I was surprised to learn he's only 39. He's 11 years younger than I am and if you color the hair, he looks 5-10 years older.
  12. I'm not even pre med but I think I could tell the difference between a spleen and a liver. I at least know (in general) where they're at and the size difference.
  13. A Florida surgeon mistakenly removed a man’s liver instead of his spleen, causing him to die on the operating table, a lawyer for the man’s widow alleges. William Bryan and his wife, Beverly Bryan, were in the Sunshine State visiting their rental property when he began experiencing “left-sided flank pain,” Beverly Bryan's attorneys said. He was admitted to the hospital for further evaluation, and although the Bryans were reluctant to have surgery in Florida, they were persuaded by Dr. Thomas Shaknovsky, a general surgeon, and Dr. Christopher Bacani, the hospital’s chief medical officer, that he could experience serious complications if he left the hospital’s care. Shaknovsky performed a hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy on William Bryan, Zarzaur said, which had deadly consequences. “Dr. Shaknovsky removed Mr. Bryan’s liver and, in so doing, transected the major vasculature supplying the liver, causing immediate and catastrophic blood loss resulting in death,” the statement said. “The surgeon proceeded with labeling the removed liver specimen as a 'spleen,' and it wasn’t until following the death that it was identified that the organ removed was actually Mr. Bryan’s liver, as opposed to the spleen.'” Shaknovsky told Beverly Bryan her husband’s spleen was so diseased that it was four times bigger than normal and it had moved to the other side of his body, Zarzaur alleges. But in a typical human body the liver exists on the opposite side of the abdomen and it is much larger than a spleen, he said. According to the Cleveland Clinic, the typical human spleen is roughly the size of an avocado, and the typical human liver is roughly the size of a football. “The family was informed that Mr. Bryan’s spleen, the root of his original symptom profile upon presentation to the hospital, was still in his body and appeared with a small cyst on its surface,” the statement said. Shaknovsky had made a similar mistake in 2023, removing portions of a pancreas instead of an adrenal gland, in a case that was settled privately, Zarzaur said. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/florida-surgeon-mistakenly-removes-patients-liver-instead-spleen-causi-rcna169614
  14. There is also the hidden vote after Dobbs. It's been consistent in that all of the polls under represent the Dems by 5-8 points.
  15. I agree on NC. I think GA is more likely. If she wins GA along with the others, she can still lose PA and NC. I just don't think she loses any of them.
  16. If she wins NV, AZ, NC, MI, and WI, then she doesn't need PA. (She'll win PA. Philly and the burbs will turn out heavy.)
  17. I think you and I are about the same age, which means we grew up in OK in the 80's and 90's. Sure, we had $1 gas but the economy there was a flaming barrel of shit.
  18. It had to happen. Damn if he isn't the coolest pol ever. 29:42 mark:
  19. Also, one more thing on MI. I go there from time to time and from what I understand, the Muslim vote in Dearborn is a very loud but very small minority. Unions, the black vote, and suburban whites are a much bigger factor.
  20. Correct on MI. PA has voted for a statewide Dem most recently. Whitmer & Co single handedly destroyed the Republican party in MI. Both states, though, have voted Dem for every statewide since 2020 so I find it hard to believe they all vote Trump now. You'd have to have people who voted Whitmer and Shapiro just two years now vote Trump. That's not happening.
  21. Adam Kinzinger has the exact same story. Said some relatives stopped speaking to him because he opposed Trump's insurrection.
