      Never read Art of the deal i take it. Trumps a wiz. Knows exactky what hes doing. Ive been saying this for months. Start extreme. Garner support. Create leverage so that under a compromise he winds up governing moderately. Right where it should be. Notall this right and left extreme bs. Its common sense. Even for uneducated folk like me.

      Their "viable" 3rd option left the team early August. Tough to recruit a 3rd QB once practice has already begun. IN the Spring, we had 6, but when JS left, we had 4, then AJ Bush decided to transfer to IWCC. Tough to pin this on staff. 2 kids left once recruiting ended, one being at the last minute.

      So expect a lot of Wildcat if Fyfe goes down and Tommy is hobbled?

      Ha ha! Yeah, I googled the quote and read her wiki entry when you first posted this. I hadn't heard of her before. But it sounds like she'd have some good material I would like reading.

      Yes, it was smart to use the commas where you did in that sentence. Has quite a bit different meaning without them.

      How could anyone make a slur like what's being accused and not get the crap beat out of them by their own team? I guess it can happen and I hope it's handled internally if you know what I mean

  15. My least favorite thing about the Trump presidency will be the daily reminder from those who won't be affected that this is fine for them, trivializing the concerns of others.

      But Dude, everything changes when the shoe is on the other foot. In one case it was a lack of decency but now it's just plain policy. Everything is going to be treated as a false equivalency by #NeverTrump.

      It's literally impossible for me to sympathize at all with the Dems or Repubs anymore. It's literally the same sh#t coming from both sides, depending on whose God Emperor is in the White House. I will be astonished if I don't vote 3rd party for the rest of my life. Opposing the 2 party is something I can genuinely get behind.

       

      And you can save all the insults that are hurled towards 3rd party voters, I've heard them all.

      Really gives me hope. And also makes me think condemnation is not the way. These are not bad people; they just haven't been successfully engaged yet.

  17. Ouch. I'm glad I had to miss this one. I only have one question right now, though: is Tommy OK, guys? Sounded terrifying.

      Yeah, he seems to be fine. Worst case maybe a concussion since he was unconscious for a bit. Hit his head hard but no spinal injury. THey just played it extremely safe, like they should.

  18. 3 US servicemen killed in Jordan. Not even an active war zone. Stay safe, servicemen and women. These are unsteady times.

      No, not at all. Racism, homophobia, and sexism is commonplace in the south and has a long history as such.

      To be clear, that is not the only place you can find such prejudices.

  22. Oh, man. This McMullin in Utah thing is for real. See, if Hillary and McMullin supporters could get together and decide on one candidate, they'd likely take down Trump easily combined. As it stands, Trump is poised to win with mid-to-high 30s% of the vote.

      I would say if you're indifferent to Trump or Hillary being elected -- and whether Utah carries another guy, that has almost zero chance of affecting the outcome -- you cannot with a straight face claim to be issues-focused.

      zoogs, I don't think anyone is indifferent about Trump or Hillary, I'm sure not. I absolutely do not want to see either one of them elected. Now what does that have to do with me or anyone not being focused on issues or what's best for the country? It sure isn't my fault this slate of losers is all we have to choose from. I refuse to be reduced to picking some perceived lesser of two evils even if those are the only two that have a legitimate shot.

      I think it was Mike Ekeler who was hit in the chumleys by the pass and also used to jump around. Els was the other LB coach we used to yell at.

      "This week there was some gray area of (assistants) really not deciding where they wanted to go until the last minute," Els said. "There were either options or it was a situation where we said … I don’t know. It was just different for some reason of being a little bit unsure on where to go. I guess I don’t know why."
