  1. Did a good job fighting back. This one could’ve gotten ugly like the HF game.
  2. Same. Made up some nice ground in a week that I thought was going to hurt me when scores started coming in last night
  3. I saw that article in the enterprise about BU and the signs of success to come after their start against that cupcake schedule and rolled my eyes. They clearly still have a long way to go.
  4. When you’re wrong, you’re wrong, and I missed this one. Congrats, Hardin!
  5. $300,000,000 in 1990 is worth approximately $740,000,000 today. His current net worth is $7,400,000,000. Must be the luckiest moron alive.
  6. I've had a lot of conversations on here about why this attitude from the right has hurt them over the last couple of decades. That said, the left is so goofy right now it's not much of an issue.
  7. Both teams are better than they were last year. Not sure how I see Hardin making up the 59-point deficit from last season. I think it'll be a good game, but I also think OF pulls away some in the second half.
  8. I personally don't believe that Tylenol causes autism, but could see it being one of a set of factors that may cause it. I think you can make an easy connection between things that a lot of people do (many, many pregnant women take aspirin) to just about anything. I could make a convincing argument that drinking water while you're pregnant increases the chances of having an autistic child, because 100% of the mothers of autistic children drank water while they were pregnant. Having worked with autistic children for the last several years, I tend to think that there are many, many factors that likely lead to a child being born autistic. I 1000% percent agree with AAW that it is much better diagnosed today than it was in the past. Most cases of autism when I was a kid were just kids who were "weird" or "different." I also agree with 5GB that there are more cases today as well. A lot is still not known about what causes autism, but there is one factor that has been definitively proven to increase the odds of having an autistic child, and that is the age of the parents. Older parents are much more likely to give birth to an autistic child. A woman in her 30s is twice as likely to have an autistic child than a woman in her 20s. A woman in her 40s is five times as likely to give birth to an autistic child than a woman in her 20s. Just in the last generation or two there's been a big increase in couples waiting well into their 30s and even 40s to start families. Without a doubt that explains (some) of the increase in autism. And I'm sure there are other environmental and dietary factors as well that are not understood yet.
  9. The oldest known instance of cancer was an osteosarcoma found in the fossil of a 1.7 million-year-old toe bone. By your logic chemical plant emissions and asbestos must not cause cancer because they weren't around when cancer was discovered. The point being that your point is not a good one.
  10. wildly inappropriate what HD did. It feels like there should be some accountability for the administrators who ignored this and then protected their own. maybe there has been, I don't know.
  11. I haven’t picked yet, who is it? 😉
  12. I read it somewhere on Friday, I thought 247, but yall are correct. Not sure if someone had a typo or what. Multiple other people also mentioned that he was committed there when we talked about him, so I dunno.
  13. Kinda my thinking, and Cita is even money IMO.
  14. I'll be a little surprised of GPNS doesn't lose to at least one of these two teams this year.
  15. they haven't beaten anyone yet. their results haven't been overly spectacular, either. I'm sure they'll roll Buna comfortably, though.
  16. Liberty has been a powerhouse for years. I’m assuming they’ll still be good
  17. I think they’ll do better than HF in both of those areas, but I don’t think they’ll do better enough to win the game. AC’s quarterback was also very tough to corral when the pressure did get through. Was the line good because HF’s isn’t strong? Was HF’s D-line struggling because their O-line is huge and good? Might be a combination of the two. That said, I expect it to be a closer game than the HF game. The stangs will have to play a good game. They aren’t going to “out-athlete” them. And they’re deep. It was a 2-score game going into the fourth, but our boys were wiped and it got out of hand. One thing that will help the stangs is that Crawford is undisciplined. Tons of penalties, and many of the 15-yd variety. Apart from the implications a WOS win would have in regards to their matchup with HF later in the season, I would love to see the mustangs pull this one out. I could be wrong. Lord knows I have been plenty on here. Maybe HF is a shell of the team they were last year, but based on their first three games it seems like they’re still pretty solid.
  18. The qb is very solid. Throws a pretty deep ball and has the line to give him time to get it off and the receivers to go up and catch them. The wr is something special. 4-star junior committed to Texas, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he finds another star between now and the end of his senior season. He went for 7/219/3 against us, and added a 78-yd punt return for a 4th score. Y’all’s secondary is probably better than ours, but still. We had decent coverage on most of their big plays and still couldn’t stop them.
  19. Bridge city by 14.
  20. After what I watched Friday, give me Crawford by 17, 38-21. Huge, fast, and talented. The HF score was a little misleading. That game snowballed late, but Crawford is really good, and they’ll have the best QB/WR combo WOS is likely to face this season.
