    Instant punishment at practice...drop downs when a ball is missed or someone

    Yeah, and as a Tech grad, the TTU campus is monstrously big. I think only smaller than Air Force due to all the runways they have.

    Anybody else like to see a package with Shrader

    The shovel pass is basically a run play.

    What made this WR transformation so fluid?

    An easy/simple playbook. Repetition. Those are the two biggest factors. It's why Leach can get WR that no other Power 5 team wanted at Wazzu or Texas Tech and have them consistently make the plays they need to.

    So if I’m reading our point spread and O/U right

    Jeff Tuel was really, really bad that year. He couldn't get Leach's offense at all. It wasn't till Halliday that Wazzu had a QB that could execute the air raid to any degree of success.

    Football is back and now this... 2020 looking to TOTALLY redeem itself!

    My biggest enjoyment was found in making fun of just how cheap as hell everything looked.

    The reality is starting to settle in for the NFL

    Tons of people ditching cable/satellite will eventually render TV ads much less valuable.

    Did y'all know Louisiana and Alabama were getting hit by a hurricane today?**

    When you say "From X to Y" you are including everything between X and Y (usually including X and Y as well). So when it says it's likely to hit a stretch of the Gulf Coast from west of New Orleans to Alabama then it's everything in between that (including Mississippi).

    Why I am looking for a home north of Austin city limits.

    So in other words, the sign is lying in that the police was not defunded but just had a budget cut?

    Hot take....

    That seems about right. Those who don't embrace offense-focused football will definitely be more upset as time goes on. Though the amount and/or intensity of bickering will likely depend on how well or poor the team looks on both sides of the ball against their SEC opponents.

    UGA expected starting QB opting out

    Daniels hasn't even been medically cleared to play I think?

    What’s up with 401k?

    And in 2008 the annual return on the checking account was what, .2%?

    What’s up with 401k?

    Well, yes, obviously when referring to a national economic index I'm referring to the "rich" on a national scale, not a global one. And of course I'm referring to those people who actually set up the system the way it is, not every Joe Millionaire or what not.

    What’s up with 401k?

    Looks like the apex near 2008 is higher than the one you marked back in 2000.

    What’s up with 401k?

    The rich have set the system so it's basically impossible for the S&P to fail long term and usually your 401k is tied to some low-fee fund that's S&P-based.. It is sustainable and it is as designed. Those with money to invest will get richer. Just check out a graph of the S&P 500 index over...

    CDC coming clean on COVID scam.

    Next thing you'll learn is people don't die from AIDS. They die because AIDS cripples the body's immune system that allows other maladies to kill the person. There have been 170,000 deaths in the US attributed to pneumonia per CDC data from Feb 1 to Aug 28. Almost 100,000 of those deaths do...
