  1. I was just going to post something about Fake News and social media. You beat me to it.
  2. NU/OU can't happen in the Cotton. Cotton has to take the highest ranked non Power 5 conference champion. If the season ended today, based on the CFP rankings (which is who places teams in these bowls) the top bowls would look like: Peach (Playoff) - Alabama/Clemson Fiesta (Playoff) - Ohio St/Michigan Rose - Wisconsin (B1G #1) vs. Washington (Pac #1) Sugar - Auburn (SEC #1) vs Oklahoma (Big 12 #1) Orange - Louisville (ACC #1) vs Penn St (Big Ten #2/SEC #2/Notre Dame) Cotton - Colorado (Top Remaining At Large) vs Boise St (Group of 5) So in order to make the Cotton, we need to end around #10 in the final CFP rankings.
  3. Here is Kiper's top 10 by position. He doesn't have any Huskers either. http://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2017/insider/story/_/id/18008341/nfl-draft-2017-top-10-prospects-every-position-mel-kiper
  4. It has to be the VP, right? I have noticed that he does look increasingly haggard. All of the campaigning had to take a toll on him. He reportedly only sleeps a couple hours a night. Look at the pictures of Bush/Obama from when they were inaugurated to when they left office. They completely changed. Doesn't seem like it will be kind to a 70 year old.
  5. What additional laws do people want put in place on this? Only American citizens (and immigrants with green cards) can contribute to federal politics, but the American divisions of foreign companies can form political action committees (PACs) and collect contributions from their American employees. I believe the problem is in enforcing it. It is interesting that the administration that is going to work on this is the same administration that had contact with a foreign government directly in their campaign to be elected. And a campaign that also solicited foreign donations
  6. So you're telling me we are going to the Outback Bowl...
  7. Waiting for Alex Jones to get a position in the administration...
  8. Dammit people. We need to pick one!
  9. None is actually not that surprising to me. On players eligible for the 17 draft, I think that Carter is actually our top prospect.
  10. We need to hashtag this and get it trending. What are we thinking? #whereisthechair #chairgate #brokenchair #findthechair
  11. He needs to keep it so we can all be reminded what a petulant child he is.
  12. I can see some sort of shady business deal coming to light over the next couple of years. Not sure what exactly, but something tied to foreign policy decisions and his businesses where it is proven somewhere (email?) that the sole reason for that decision was to enrich his business.
  13. How Trump Can Make Money Off The Secret Service When it comes to political campaigns, the U.S. Secret Service pays for agent travel, be it on aircraft, trains, boats or automobile. Unlike Clinton, Trump didn’t need to charter an airplane since he flew on his own jets. As a result, while the Secret Service chipped in for its share of what the Clinton campaign paid to charter a plane, when it came to Trump’s campaign, the federal agency effectively just paid him. For travel on Trump’s black-and-red Boeing 757 and Cessna Citation jet, the candidate’s aviation company TAG Air Inc. has raked in almost $6 million, Politico reported. These payments, Secret Service spokesman Joe Casey said, accord with FEC rules specifying that those traveling with a campaign—including the news media—must pay for their travel. For any of the Trump or Pence clans assigned a protective detail due to safety risks—and the rancor of the 2016 vote could well produce many—Secret Service travel on a Trump-owned plane means the agency would need to reimburse the aircraft’s owner. In this case, the president.
  14. This wouldn't be as big of deal if the Trump campaign wasn't the least transparent modern presidential campaign.
  15. I'm open to give him a chance too, but between Bannon and continuing to rail against the media on twitter, new Trump still looks like old Trump.
  16. Did we really learn anything new? I didn't. Take away the OSU game, this game followed the script of every game this year.
  17. You forgot "white nationalist" in your discription.
  18. He hired Steve Bannon as his Cheif Strategist.
  19. Reince Cheif of Staff. But Banning Cheif Strategist. God help us all...
