    OT: Healthcare

    Agree and disagree. I absolutely think the pre-existing conditions problem had to be addressed. I don't think ACA was the best way to do it. I think a handful of standalone requirements could have worked.

    OT: Healthcare

    That's not true. You have two anecdotal experiences to back up your claim. I have an aunt in France that would beg to differ (see my previous post). I also have a very close friend, and another acquaintance who have both lived in Germany for around a decade each. While it's pretty good...

    OT: Healthcare

    I have an aunt in France who is dealing with breast cancer. It's been an absolute nightmare for a year now. She had to wait almost 5 months after diagnosis to start receiving actual care. And this was for stage 3. They have government provided healthcare. 70% is paid by the state, and this...

    OT: Healthcare

    We had a different system, and we butchered it in 2010. Don't get me wrong, it was far from perfect then, but it was better than what we have now (if only because it was a singular system). You mentioned the European systems - what we have now is an abomination of a mash-up between our...

    So it looks like football ticket sales are, shall we say, lacking?

    Shelling out $600 to stay at a crappy hotel is what keeps me away. I'm too far away to not need a hotel. If I bought season tickets, I'm in for $4,200 in hotel costs right off the bat. Just not worth it to me. I make a game a year most years, that's about the best I'll do at this point.

    What was the problem with this baseball team?...

    No 3rd starter, no shut down arms in the pen, hitters all streak at the same time in both directions.

    Game#3 at A & M Thread

    Lol. Ace is anti clutch. He does most of his damage in low leverage situations

    Game#3 at A & M Thread

    How do you have a "must win" type game and walk over 10 people? Lol. Gotta be pretty weak minded as a pitching staff.

    SEC post-spring football overreactions: This guy gets it

    Both can be, and are, true. Cohen did screw us. Mike Leach did die, and that definitely hurt us. Arnette was a horrible hire. All those things you list as excuses did and still do hurt us. It's also true that Lebby has been here 2.5 years and turned the roster and staff over several times...

    State MUST win Saturday! MUST WIN!

    The way we've handled the pitching staff as a whole this weekend has been questionable to say the least. BOC has pulled some headscratchers all weekend.
