    Big girl reacted in Lamar at WAC Meetings?   
    [quote name="GeauxLamar" post="860331" timestamp="1285717570"]
    Just curious if your source said anything else like... not right now but later or looking at different conference? If Denver goes to the WAC then there is another opening in the Sunbelt etc
    [/quote]

    We need money to go FBS, and we don't have enough to make that move.

    I would like to see Lamar go FBS one day, but I'm not going to waste my breath talking about it. If y'all want to see it so bad, start raising money.

    Otherwise y'all are also wasting time because a move to FBS is a long way off. Be happy with what we have.

    Sorry - but you kill a program for 21 years and then try and restart from scratch this is the net result - years of struggling and low attendance and support.
     
    It will take years to bring this program back from the dead.  Sorry but they need to hire a coach that is used to rebuilding programs and give him 5 - 8 years to get the best players that he can and start by getting a few wins a year and hope - and I mean hope that bigger and better players like what they see.

    It's only trolling because it isn't another anti obama hate thread.

    Business as usual on setxsports.com . People on this board have literally nothing else to contribute besides "OBAMA BAD, OBAMA SUK".

    First - Good job avoiding to discuss the topic at hand. Is the title not factually correct? Please explain how corporations "donating" millions and millions of dollars to politicians (who republicans will admit are corrupt) is in the best in interests of the country.

    Second - Do you guys really need me to make the 1000th thread on how the economy sucks? Everyone knows it. Let me know, I can post another topic on the economy which I'm sure will spur intelligent discussion.

    Those middle eastern countries will always be in conflicts as long as they keep clinging to their religion. We can't afford to occupy it until eternity.

    Luckily most people in this country aren't as fanatic and pick and choose which parts to believe and focus on.

    Big girl reacted to bullets13 in If Sam doesn't make a team....Get ready for it.....   
    To be fair, Sam did better in preseason (pretty decent) than Tebow did at any time in his pro career.  to be even fairer, Tebow fans imagined most of the criticism he took for expressing his Christian views.  there were a few people who complained, but the majority of people who said he was criticized for his Christianity actually ignored the fact that he sucked.  Then when people said he sucked, they blamed the criticism on his Christianity, rather than the fact that he was a terrible QB. 
     
    I will say that I agree that Sam is getting way too much media coverage for a player that was cut from the roster and can't even find a practice team, but like it or not, he's not an ordinary player, and the interest in his career is well above average.  he's getting more attention than he deserves (not unlike Tebow) because he lives a lifestyle much different from the average NFL player (not unlike Tebow).

    Michael Sam not signed to St. Louis Rams practice squad  
    Should have kept his mouth shut - IF - it were ALL about football. Ones sexual preference has nothing to do with how well you can play or not. He made this about something else and perhaps it cost him...
     
    With that said, with all the negative attention Tim Tebow received for his religious views, I only see it fair that Sam take the same heat. One might even learn from history. Teams eventually didn't want Tebow due to the distractions he may bring/cause....
     
    The Rams seem to be making their decision based on the same merit......or perhaps (as some will argue) that Tebow demise had nothing to do with his religious views, he was just a terrible football player (at the NFL level)
     
    NOTE: Tebow fans (and Christians) will never see it this way....So is it the same, Sam was a terrible football player (at the NFL level) , but due to his "coming out, some will only see his demise as his sexual preference..........

    Will you stop with the idiotic historical GDP comparisons already? There's plenty of other points you can make about the terrible economy but that is not one of them.

    Of course the GDP growth after (realistically were still in it) the greatest recession since the Great Depression will be low when you compare to GDP growth post WW2. Last time I checked, the post WW2 period excludes the Great Depression.

    And no one is saying YOU should pay your fair share. You are not in the top 0.1%. Why middle class Americans defend the top 0.1% while they outsource jobs, cut benefits and keep compensation flat is beyond me.

    I can't fault him for that. I got married on UT/OU game day. Behind WB's James Brown and Ricky Williams, the Horns pulled out the W. I figured if they lost, the marriage was doomed and I would flee. If they won, it was meant to be. So far so good - almost 17 years later.

    Happy anniversary Mack. Take care of the better half. In the end, it's just another football game.
