  1. I don't. There are two reasons I don't like watching the NFL. One of them is that so many of the teams make it to the playoffs, so they really only need to win 8 or 9 games during the season. I would hate it if 16 teams made the NCAA Playoffs. When I was a kid I used to actually pray for teams ahead of Nebraska to get knocked off. I watched every game between teams ranked ahead. I even figured out after we lost to Colorado which teams needed to lose to who for us to still make it to the championship game. All of that goes away if the playoffs expand that far. I'm okay with a 6 team playoff but not more. Last year I watched 1 NFL football game.
  2. I don't know about that. (I didn't) But if the program he's in is better at Kentucky he should go to Kentucky.
  3. I kinda hated that 'cause it would be awful to experience. You're out in public showering and can't see anything because there's shampoo in your eyes and nothing will make it go away. That being said I watched 3 of the videos...
  4. I think Turner was a top 10 mobile QB recruit. I looked it up a couple years ago. I remember being excited about Darlington. You didn't answer my question. I don't expect to get two in one class. Not sure what your pint is with the question. Some years we didn't even get one. There wasn't a point to the question besides wanting to know the answer to it. The reason I wanted an answer to the question is because I thought you were implying in the quote below that it's normal for teams to land 2 QBs.
  5. You throw the word hate around a lot. It doesn't mean the same thing for some people as it does others. I probably hate less than 4 people on earth and I can't think of the names off the top of my head. It's a word to use for special circumstances. What you are talking about is irritation, not hate. Although some of the tweets at him were ridiculous and a few could qualify. Those people are insane though.
  6. If they can get it to the courts the argument will be about the players. I don't think it'll matter how many conferences voted for it.
  7. That was already posted in this thread and doesn't answer the question of whether we've had this many before. Yes we had 12 last year. 12 isn't 13. It only answers the question If last year's # was a record. Sorry if this comes off as obnoxious but simply quoting that seems to be implying you think the poster can't read.
  8. Well women are only 51% of the population. We had our day in the sun.
  9. The really upsetting thing is that there is no logic behind not allowing it. It helps the athletes trying to find a scholarship. Even the ones that end up going to the smaller host school. Hell, why don't they just ban coaches from leaving the states their schools are in. That makes about as much sense. No more Georgia recruits for Saban. Then you have the whole grayshirting issue with SEC teams. That HURTS the athletes trying to find a scholarship. There is no common sense or logic to this. They clearly don't have the people who matter (the players) in mind at all. It's all about $$.
  10. Looked at the delegate count again. If Trump wins 65% of the rest of the vote (meaning he'd also get the winner-take-all states) and loses California, he'll be short of the delegates he needs. If he wins the rest of the winner-take-all states and gets 0 delegates from the remaining proportional vote states, he'll have the delegates he needs. He'll get 40+ delegates from New York so he doesn't need all of the winner take all states. So basically it comes down to California which is 2 months away.
  11. I think Turner was a top 10 mobile QB recruit. I looked it up a couple years ago. I remember being excited about Darlington. You didn't answer my question.
  12. One thing I find disturbing is there are no Bothans in the trailer!
  13. I did a dungeon in World of Warcraft last night with the following: a warrior named Bronzecrotch, a pally named Bumlove, and a priest named Scrot.
  14. 2009 we landed 4 star Texas QB Cody Green. 4 star 2010 we landed 4 star Florida QB Brion Carnes. 3 star .8634 rating 2011 we landed 4 star Texas QB Jamal Turner. 4 star and yes, he did play QB in HS. But, I think we were one of the few recruiting him as a QB and he is even listed on 247 as a WR. 2012 we landed 4 star Texas QB Tommy Armstrong. 4 star 2013 we landed 4 star California QB Johnny Stanton. 4 star 2014 we landed 4 star California QB Zack Darlington and AJ Bush. Darlington 3 star .8737 AJ Bush 3 star .8044 (that's almost a 2 star) Multiple QBs of this type? Never. But of this caliber? Well, we got highly rated quarterbacks that were at the top of our board pretty much every year. Looking at 247. So, from above, our recruiting has been at best spotty. The best situation we had in these years were Tommy and Johnny coming in consecutive years. And, yes, the word "type" is important in my statement. Meaning, QBs that the rest of the world were all recruiting as top QBs and are well known for being able to deliver the ball accurately....etc. I'm not really a follower of recruiting except for the Huskers, casually. Is it normal to land 2 good QB recruits in the same year? You're implying that it is by saying the above is at best spotty. To me it looks pretty good.
  15. Not only that. I had it open on my phone just listening and her voice is great too and I immediately knew the storyline.
  16. Would you say the same about Ameer? Heck no...you know how this goes...Bell is bad...AA is great. There's a huge difference in how Ameer and Kenny deal with these things (and specifically, this thing). But keep pretending there isn't and it's just bias that was concocted out of thin air.
  17. This tweet cracked me up: @AFRO_THUNDER80 I heard they also took down all the 9 win banners. Where will the madness end Kenny's reply: This kind attitude is sad. Again not about wins/losses. It's about the guys that contributed to the program Another from Kenny: @rooka21personally shook every single administrators hand and told them i appreciated them wen i graduated....After they just fired my coach I takes a big man to do that... and then tweet about it. Especially the last line implying you shook their hands even though they were horrible.
  18. I thought about it and they're adults. Taking the records away doesn't necessarily mean they're not listed as lifter of the year, and their names are in plenty of other record books. Ones that have to do with on field performance.
  19. ^ would be funny. Another idea would be to use asterisks somehow. Or put that data on some other wall at memorial stadium.
  20. Gonna play devil's advocate here. What if the way they were doing things before Boyd came back made it so none if the new players (as of the changes) could crack the top 10 in any category. Not because they're weak but because they're doing the lifts correctly. Is it fair to the new players to be made to look weak when they're doing lifts the right way but don't show up on the board because their numbers are lower? It seems like a Boyd Epley thing to me rather than a Mike Riley staff thing. Epley left in 2006. 10 years ago. Probably not a coincidence. But imo a much better way to do this is to weight the lifts of the past 10 years to match them up to what they would have been in Epley's system. Might be a pain but it could be done. All of the rankings would have to be edited though.
  21. Seeing as they make policy, no, nothing will happen.
  22. That's what makes watching it so frustrating. You could give him 20 yards of open space in front of him and instead of running he'll throw it into triple coverage. Or he'll do the same thing if his check down has 20 yards of open space in front of him. But then he'll make amazing plays.
  23. ^ that is so sad. They want women to not get abortions. Fine. I'm pro life too (with exceptions). But then they want to make it as hard as possible to adopt a baby. What the hell is wrong with these people? If you want women to not abort babies then make adoptions easier. Oh. And maybe don't cut food stamps or other things that make having the baby more affordable. Or hey... and f'ing make contraception easy to obtain so abortion doesn't have to enter as many people's minds. I mean, just fyi to all you guys, I don't care if it's TMI, once a year I have to get a piece of plastic, followed by some needles, shoved up my vagina so I can obtain birth control. And it doesn't feel good. Because for some reason sitting in a doctor's office doesn't do anything to get me ready if you know what I mean. I guess the closest thing I could use to describe it for a man to understand is to say maybe it's what it'd feel like to have a charlie horse inside your anus. It doesn't last long and it's not excruciating but it's not enjoyable. (I do understand the need to do this for health but in your 20s and 30s it's probably not necessary to do once a year and if I'm having sex with only one dude I don't need to be checked for STDs every year). I just don't understand how people are this stupid. If you think abortion is murder, then do what you can to prevent women from feeling the need to abort babies. It's pretty damn simple. Republicans and their policies seem to do everything they can to make abortions MORE likely. Lastly, the types of familes they described, those perfect familes, are often secretly effed up familes in private. Gays had to fight for marriage for years. If they want a kid I'd trust how good they'd be to that kid as much as I would a "perfect" married Christian set of parents.
