What an idiot! š

Donāt sports bet unless Iām at a casino. But I was at the Nugget last weekend so took a few futures: Clemson over 10.5 wins +120 Klubnik to win Heisman +900 Nussmeier to win Heisman +900 (Also put in a few Emmy bets but we wonāt get into that.)

Bullets? Well come back and look at thisā¦

His last response, which was hilarious I thought, signaled his feeling on Obama (when Maher said banning Senators from running for president would have prevented JFK and Obama from being such - āI can live with thatā.)

Thought I would post something on here from one of the last of the true conservatives, George Will. Whether politics or baseball, Iāve always enjoyed reading his stuff. A national treasure.

UTSA wonāt be far behind I predict. Theyāve been in talks I know. 7th biggest market in the country and the 2nd biggest in Texas behind Houston nowā¦definitely a plum for TV negotiations.

They have around 20 if these in the UK/Ireland. Some arenāt even for a specific holiday, just called a āBank Holiday.ā

I really wish they would bracket the teams at the CWS based on seeding. I get LSU and Arkansas were the 3 and 6 seeds but they also the two highest seeds remaining. Just seems like they would make for a better overall tournament not having arguably the two best teams remaining play in the first round.

Thank you for your admission that you have just been trolling this past year and that you do, in fact, agree with those of us who think the powers that be have Lamar going in the right direction. Kind of a weird thing to troll about but to each his own. No one has said there isnāt room for improvement (there always is) or that the Southland conference is a juggernaut (although we all agree Lamar is situated and competing against schools it should be competing against). But I believe Jeff OāMalley was a home run hire unlike some of the previous ADs (certainly including his immediate predecessor). This is also directly attributable to Lamar President Jaime Taylor who I also believe is the best Lamar has had at that position in decades. I too would love to see Lamar win their tournament and get to play a game in March Madness (they arenāt upsetting a top 20 team like McNeese did unless they get a few million a year to go out and buy players like the Cowboys are able to do), or get to play in a regional NCAA baseball tournament. But just because you donāt finish first doesnāt mean your season is a failure. āIf you aināt first, your last,ā after all, was the mantra of a fictional character in a comedy that was premised on what an embecile he was.

No one once has said the SLC is a strong conference. Youāve been having that convo with yourself, specialsal
-
We have poor specialsal reeling now that heās been exposed as a clueless mom in the stands. Itās okay little guy. We all canāt know everything about everything. I know you probably have your areas of expertise tooā¦I have no doubt you would destroy us in Real Housewives trivia.

That game was 3 points at half and was nip and tuck in the second half until late when Lamar was forced to foul and free throws widened the final margin. AS IS OFTEN THE CASE IN BASKETBALL. Anyone who has any knowledge of the game, or actually knows what they are looking at when watching the game, knows this. Someone who likes to wager on the game, has benefitted or been screwed by late game free throws in an otherwise very tight game routinely. Thatās basketball. Which you continue to make very evident you have virtually know understanding of. I am guessing you also ask the person sitting next to you at a game, if you have ever attended one, why free throws are free?
-
Tell me you didnāt watch the game without telling me you didnāt watch the game. You obviously donāt know basketball from the hollow space between your ears. Thanks for confirming š
-
You said they certainly donāt compete well in conference tournaments, which was just a flat out idiotic statement to make when you grouped in basketball specifically. And obviously football doesnāt have one so super dumb there too. Honestly I canāt decide if you are actually really slow or just a bad troll. Either way, thoughts and prayers sport.

Losing in the finals of the conference tournament and finishing second in the regular season to a team with a $2-3M payroll and a coach who earned over $1M this past year, while also playing them close 3 times. Are you actually a moron or do you just play one online?
-
Well duh! Do you expect a college in Beaumont, Texas to be in a major conference? They are competing at the level they should be, against schools in similar market. The ābigā sports finished 3rd, 2nd, and 3rd in a 12 team conference. I guess if your only definition of success is winning the conference tournament so you get a bid to the NCAA tournament, no one would ever meet your expectations. Texas won the similar trophy in the SEC and will likely win the Directorās Cup for the best athletics program in the country yet again. This is in no small part to Chris Del Conte being the best in the biz imo. Jeff OāMalley is not a good AD, heās a great one. I would not want him in charge of the athletics department at a school I didnāt like, that had real money pumped into their athletics department.
-
Man, if only Lamar would hire an AD like Sally Boy, they might actually compete! Oh waitā¦

By almost every quantifiable metric, heās the worst president of the last 75 or so years, probably longer. He did some nice things in the Middle East but the economy was the worst it has been since the Great Depression. His biggest flaw was hiring the help. As a person though, itās an even farther divide in my opinion. The other way.
-
Yes he may have been the worst president of my lifetime. He was also easily the best ex-president. No one did more good with their time after being in office than that guy. If I could bet on one ex-president for sure being in heaven, itās that guy.

Trump long has ties to Epstein. Heās definitely traveled with him, we just donāt know if heās been to the island. And Iām just as confident there have been plenty of Dems on those flights as well. Trump being a perv shouldnāt surprise anyone. Dude has given off perv vibes his whole life until he ābecame a Christianā right about the time he wanted to lead the country. Likewise, hair-smelling Joe Biden is creepy as hell too. The only president of my lifetime I would confidently say wasnāt a perv was Carter. And he might have been the worst in office. But also probably the finest man we elected. I tend to think W is a pretty solid guy as well. The rest of them I definitely wouldnāt trust around my daughter.

Those with TDS and TWS (worship) amuse me equally. Ted Cruz doesnāt dine at my house and Iāve never met the man. But someone close to me who often entertains him and others like him will tell you, and has been nicely telling the rubes naively hoping this goofy theory is true, that it assuredly is not the case. But I get why you would want it to be.
