  1. For now. How damaging will it be when enough of Trump's nutters get in office and start messing with election results that they don't like? To be honest, I'm sure most of the folks on here would think it's great, at least until the dems use the same new rules to do it to us. Imagine a world where AOC wielded the type of power that some would like Trump to have. Then you'll really see some damaging policy.
  2. Couldn't really think of anything else it could be, tbh.
  3. There are plenty of pro-lifers and pro-second amendment conservatives that aren't nutty, just like there are plenty of liberals that are pro-choice and anti-gun that aren't nutty. My point was that there are factions of extremists on both sides that are awful.
  4. She was kind of before my time, but I grew up poor enough that there were times that we didn't have a choice but to watch old reruns of Murder, She Wrote due to nothing else being on.
  5. there's definitely just as big of a dumpster fire on the far right as there is far left. A lot of Trump disciples won't acknowledge it because anything he says is the gospel, and he supports these radical righties, but there are some absolutely nutty conservatives in office right now. It's going to hurt the right in the near future, during a time where they should be making massive gains. It's already showing up in races where republicans were projected to flip seats, but are going to lose because radical conservatives backed by Trump got enough support to get the nomination, but are too radical to actually win the election. Then again, all it takes to get his endorsement is to claim election fraud, with literally nothing else being a qualification, so it's not really a surprise that some of the goofballs he's endorsing aren't the best candidates.
  6. Was getting on to say exactly this. She was pretty moderate for a democrat 20 years ago, so you can only imagine how far she is from the more liberal left now. that being said, she's also probably closer to your average Republican these days than someone like Marjorie Taylor Greene is.
  7. they were really good last year. Must've had a good recruiting class this year if people are putting them above FF.
  8. Katy ISD football coach resigns as police launch misconduct investigation (msn.com)
  9. I watched a video the other day where an officer tazed a guy. The guy dropped like a sack of potatoes, then rolled around and was able to eventually pull the prongs out and charged the officer who ended up shooting him. Seems like they’re only effective to a certain point. It’s dependent on A) getting good contact, and B ) whether or not it takes the fight out of the suspect. And of course C) whether or not they’re on some sort of narcotic that makes them impervious to the taser’s effects
  10. All roads still lead through AAU Recruiters Prep, I mean Oak Cliff Faith Family
  11. bet that machete wasn't frail.
  12. That’s what happens
  13. I’ll take AP by two scores, 34-20. This is EC’s chance to show they’ve improved from early in the season when they got beat down by the only good opponent they’ve faced all year. I think they have improved some, but not enough to get past Anahuac if Corbitt is healthy.
  14. PayPal says policy to fine customers for 'misinformation' was an 'error' | Reuters Paypal recently updated their terms of service to include their right to fine users up to $2,500 for things like using their service to promote disinformation. This is absolutely terrifying. Can you imagine having a company be able to drain your account with them because they disagree with you politically? After facing massive backlash they've crawfished on this new policy, but if my understanding is correct, they still have in place a fine up to $2500 for breaking the following rule: You may not use the PayPal service for activities that … relate to … the promotion of hate, violence, racial or other forms of intolerance that is discriminatory or the financial exploitation of a crime …. I think this is a fine rule, and they should be able to enforce some sort of ban or make you close your account if you violate it, but to straight up steal people's money based on your interpretation of their actions is insanity.
  15. Most likely. LCM has the athletes to counter Lumberton's air attack, but aren't firing on all cylinders right now. But both teams will give Lumberton's defense some issues. Against HF and Tatum they've shown they struggle against the run, and they haven't faced anyone like Morris, or anything like Vidor's Slot-T, which they're working well right now. I kind of expect high scoring games in both these.
  16. Just need one good week to get back on top. Tbh, I’m shocked I’m still this close this far into the season.
  17. Don’t step too far out on that limb, buddy 😀
  18. I’ve gone on record saying I think L-town is over ranked at 7. I still believe that. That being said, they do have a very good team, top-15 or 20 IMO. The #7 team in the state should beat vidor by a lot. I don’t think that happens, but they should win this game by a couple of touchdowns. If it’s in that range, or closer, I’ll stand by my assessment of them. If it’s a blowout I’ll reconsider some.
  19. HF is a whoooole lot better the last two seasons than they’ve been in years past. Last year WOS beat them 24-8 after a couple of decades of beating them by 30-40 points. HF has taken another step forward this year, IMO. Silsbee has taken a big step forward. WOS has been awesome in district over the years, no doubt about it, but this is the best district WOS has been in for as long as I can remember. For years and years traditionally the only real threat to them in district was Silsbee. And while they beat them in district consistently, we’re only a few years removed from Silsbee knocking them out of the playoffs two years in a row. WOS has played possibly the toughest schedule of any 4A team in the state to this point. Combine that with new schemes, and they’ve struggled. There are some valid concerns with the coaching, I get it. But I don’t think it’s a guarantee that they wouldn’t have 2-3 losses at the point if they had the same staff as last year. With the exception of HF, all the teams that have beaten them this year have also beat them at times over the last several years as well.
  20. My thinking on that field goal is this: your defense has only allowed one touchdown all game. If you go for it and fail, LA wins with a touch down and a fg. If you kick the field goal, they need two touchdowns in 5 1/2 minutes to win. I agreed with the call in that particular scenario.
  21. This Dallas pass rush is terrifying. The defense is responsible for the 4-1 record. They’ve allowed 5 touchdowns in 5 games. That’s pretty insane. They haven’t played weak teams this year. Tom Brady, the two teams from last year’s Super Bowl, and the giants, who are 4-1. Rush has filled in well, but he’s nothing but a game manager. Give him credit for not turning the ball over, but 4 touchdowns in 4 1/2 games is not great. If Dak comes back and can even be pretty good, this team can make some noise
  22. I had a feeling the ags could stay in this against a backup qb. All of their QBs are backups, so they’re used to playing with one, but Bama is not.
  23. I think you’re right.
  24. And it’s a valid point, but the teams with losing records on the schedule in question are not. One or two might be almost decent.
  25. Yup, what AAW said. WOS is 3-4, with one of the tougher schedules in the state so far. And 5-30 will never be comparable to 30-5. I get the point that 5-30 against better opponents is not the same as 5-30 against good opponents, but EC’s opponents have lost to plenty of average and bad teams. EC has obviously beaten the very easy opponents in front of them, but not by the margins they would’ve in previous years, and a 41 point loss to HF is unheard of. Thus, they are down this year compared to last year. I picked them to beat Buna, for what it’s worth.
