  1. Either way this recruitment like all top WRs will last until signing day
  2. Thamel seems like a guy with sources.... I'm guessing jumped the gun, but damn man...
  3. This. I'm counting on a bunch of cold as shit games this season for Oregon and their WRs saying they hate the cold.
  4. The best strategy IMO is one that is more likely to get the most people out to vote. Energy, enthusiasm and excitement is what's needed and what's currently missing. There is zero sign that is going to improve going forward with Biden. All signs currently point to another setback.
  5. I think this is the argument many see for having him step aside. Why not take his big issue of age/competence away and put someone up with isn't too old, isn't incompetent and isn't prone to damage the republic. Someone who can also energize the base to get out and vote. With Trump on the other side there should be no downside to do so.
  6. I don't see that. You give me a Democratic candidate that people are excited about and this election is a layup.
  7. Problem is being willing to overpay doesn't negate the other team willing to overpay even more.
  8. I mean I make the green chile sauce like the NM tourism department suggests... its a sauce with green chiles as an ingredient, but 100% "green chile sauce" is a thing. https://www.newmexico.org/things-to-do/cuisine/recipes/green-chile-sauce/
  9. The message is clear from all sides in the media now and I agree that I don't see how Biden doesn't step aside (get pushed aside) in the next 2 weeks. It's clear he can't make it until election without another "episode" putting the final nail in his own re-election chances. The problem now is he's sinking other races and it's not just about losing the White House. Party members are going to start focusing in on their own self interests and realize he can't continue as candidate. I don't think anyone is willing to bet the farm on Biden in his current condition making it to election day without some kind of repeat performance (especially with media hyper focused on looking for it). He could kill it for months and then falter in October destroying every piece of momentum created. Democrats just can't take that risk, they can't. The talk is now not if, but when.
  10. All about the footnotes... just know part of their number is a loan that they took from the general school fund to athletics that they plan to pay back. That should tell you everything about how meaningless the actual numbers are given there really aren't any standards to it. A team with hundreds of millions of athletic "revenue" seems odd to need a loan from the school fund.
  11. Michael Scott George Costanza Al Bundy
  12. You missed out on a lot of Big12 Championship T-shirts the past year.
  13. This is like a SNL skit. Right now, lab grown meat is keeping people from eating lab grown meat. No law is needed. I'm not sure what a "ban" will do. And who is this "global elite" that has a plan to force the world to eat lab grown meat to achieve their authoritarian goals? What goals are those?
  14. Man I'm torn on this one. I'm a huge "movie" Costner fan, pretty much love all his movies. I'd probably rate this one last of all his though. Had great visuals, cinematography, but just too many cliche frontier story lines. Nothing really grabbed me. I'll still see the rest, but maybe my hopes/expectations were too high on this one.
  15. Noticed aggy media like to use the word "elite" a lot. I'm not sure they understand what that means.
  16. Can't stop laughing at Aggies, especially at aggy mom who can't handle the success a coach finally brought to their team. It's like they are allergic to hard work and on field success. No wonder their culture is so engrained in mediocrity.
  17. Are you in Texas? Insured in Texas? I'm finding Texas passed HB999 in Sept 2023 which specifically outlaws this practice in Texas. It was done last years session and is effective beginning with plans delivered or renewed on or after Jan 1, 2024. Bill link: https://capitol.texas.gov/tlodocs/88R/billtext/pdf/HB00999I.pdf#navpanes=0 So maybe some relief coming if you are??
  18. Sounds like you have a copay accumulator as part of your insurance. It seems to be a legal limbo area currently. Was originally set to allow insurnace to do what they are currently doing to you and not count against out-of-pocket maximums ONLY IF there was a generic version available. Rule apparently changed to just allow insurers to use it anytime they felt like it (enacted during Trump admin). There is bipartisal support to go back to original ruling limiting its use, but currently left up to insurers. Here is a long legal explanation on the state of things where I pulled the info from: https://www.maynardnexsen.com/publication-more-developments-on-copay-accumulator-programs-as-biden-administration-drops-appeal-of-vacated-rule#:~:text=Copay accumulators are programs wherein,e.g.%2C discount cards%2C coupons%2C Long story short... currently there is no benefit to you other than delays your initial payment a couple months. Over the course of the year it doesn't benefit you. (and is completely against the entire purpose/need of the copay assistance)
  19. Yep... I feel similar this go around. GOP runs Trump because they feel he's the only one who can beat Biden. If Biden decided not to run (early on), I'm not sure Trump is their candidate.
  20. Difference is behind Trump is Trump 2.0... Trump 3.0... they keep coming. Dems never needed to be perfect against Trump, all they need is to avoid being a disaster. They are getting awfully close to their "hold my beer" finale.
  21. My money is on he'll forget he said this by dinner
  22. You pull all support and basically inform him he's putting himself over country and that's how he'll be forever remembered. No way he'd be ok with that. Someone in his inner circle can convince him.
  23. Not a chance. Polls have already indicated it was a concern for people. I'd expect the DNC itself to orchestrate some polls showing a much larger lead to make replacement an easier option.
