  1. If that was on my regular commute, I would be fucking hating life.
  2. Perhaps not, but I CAN say that UW would stomp a mudhole in A&M.
  3. Even Kaine would be a substantial improvement on Trump. Interestingly, so would Trump.
  4. Please, by all means, continue to watch football and post on cr while you drive. Maybe throw a nice warm blanket over you as you do.
  5. That opinion is going to be about as popular as a colonoscopy during a Nickleback concert on this board. I happen to agree, however.
  6. Having spent the last two years in Houston, I can tell you that the state of Texas, which unilaterally hates everything about the state of California, Most definitely embraces Herman as a Texas Guy. He has spent almost his entire career coaching in Texas, and his relationships with Texas HS Coaches are FANTASTIC. They freaking love him, always have. No, I'm with the majority on this one, Strong is out, and UT is going to back up the Brinks Truck to Hermans front door, and he will walk to Austin on a path paved with c-notes. LSU is out because they are cash strapped, they can't afford to pay Herman what Texas can...and really, why the hell would you move to the hell hole that is LSU when you could live in Austin, the only city in Texas that feels like it actually belongs on the same planet as the rest of us. Also, despite the fact that he SHOULD be fired as of right freaking now, I think that Brian Kelly gets another year at ND. They are just now finishing up their payments to Charlie Weiss (seriously, that guy is a turd), and probably won't be too quick on the trigger to excommunicate Kelly. That being said, Kelly could do a lot for himself if he stopped acting like Whitey Bulger on the field and in the locker room (miss a block at your own risk),
  7. Zeke went 1st in our league.
  8. http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/lhiannonshee_photo/rc%20pommade.png I wouldn't expect the less "ethnic" among us to understand, but this shit right HERE, nukka....
  9. Page 23 is full of win. Props to Jive for being a good sport.
  10. This was pretty epic; "Son, we live in a conference that has athletic budgets, and those athletic budgets have to be balanced by schools who go to major bowls and turn on cable boxes. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Purdue? Ohio State has a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for the Hoosiers, and you curse the Buckeyes. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that Hoosier losses, while tragic, probably balance budgets; and Ohio State's existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, balances your budget. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about during basketball season you want us in that playoff-- you need us in that playoff. We use letterss like "O" and "H" and "I" and "O" again. We use these letters as the backbone of a life spent building something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a university whose athletic department rises and balances its books under the blanket of the very revenue that we provide and then questions the manner in which we provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you fill up your stadium and go to some major bowls. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think IU is entitled to!"
  11. That wr is going to get KILLED in the film room on Monday. How you bitch out a yard short of the first down in that situation...unreal.
  12. And if you are curious, that sound you are hearing is the Heisman campaign of Lamar Jackson beginning to skid towards the cliff of broken dreams.
  13. I'm really not a fan of the pass interference calls on every underthrown ball nowadays.
  14. Agreed. I think Fleck at ND is a pretty interesting idea. That guy has done some good things wherever he has been. I dig him.
  15. This just in: Houston is good.
  16. I did include him, yes? Or were you clarifying that I meant "Greg" Schiano, and not some other dude who's last name is Schiano?
  17. If I were one of the AD's in that conference, I would immediately enter a vote of "no confidence" in this commissioner. That is just plain stupid. If they don't, though, and Houston isn't included in the big 12, there is no way Herman lasts another year. If I were Houston, I would be putting a hit out on the Big 12 Commish.
  18. Alright, I'll start with coaching names that will be out there looking for work. Briles Herman Miles Sark PJ Fleck (W. Michigan) Lincoln Riley (OU) Matt Rhule (Temple) Jeff Brohm (W. Kentucky) Scott Satterfield (App St.) Troy Calhoun (Air Force) Chad Morris (SMU) Cumbie and Meachum (both O coordinators at TCU) Sanford (ND) Venables (Clemson) Bob Shoop (Tenn) Schiano Gene Chizik Kiffin Anyone I missed?
  19. Shouldn't your name be "Lauren"?
  20. Truth. That being said, I'm standing by my statement that Houston will be in the Big 12 next season, and that might be enough to make Herman stay. Herman, while he spent a couple seasons in Ohio, is a Texas guy. Clemson DOES feel a lot like O State form a year ago. They have been treated as such as well. No losses, and yet have dropped steadily in the polls.
  21. As is Notre Dame. Brian Kelly isn't going to get a chance to leave for the nfl...he's going to get fired before he has a chance.
  22. Also, Verne Lundquist and Gary Danielson sounds like two guys who couldn't be more bored or confused by the game of football in general and this game in particular.
