    People Trump Believes: Putin Kim MBS Hannity Stone His Gut People Trump Doesn't Believe: US Intelligence Agencies US Admirals and Generals FBI 99% of the World's Scientists Anything that contradicts anything said by those in the top list
  3. I legitimately/continuously forget that I used to snow shoe/climb escarpments/howl across the tranquil waters of the Königsee. It slipped my mind that I was once considered The Yodel King. But yesterday by chance I came across the last jodeln I performed. It was years ago (I had already quit yodelling by then) when I did a yodel on the Bavarian variety show Lustige Musikanten. I figured I'd share it here.
  4. Fine, fine. From EJ in a Kroger parking lot - EJ's numbers are low b/c of his marriage + honeymoon, so he's had to pump out a lot more articles lately. Apparently he's buying groceries to cook vegan chili tonight. EJ's wife has him on a diet even though he's 175 lbs. - Buy/Sell: Texas lands 2 of Ringo, Flowe, Milton, and Smalls. EJ would pass on that bet, 2 of them is tough but realistic. Ringo has been to Texas twice and is the best bet w Westbrook as his current coach and Beck as his school's former coach. Him and Milton will both be back for official visits, probably. Others are longer shots because they haven't visited. They probably won't be a package deal. - Texas will continue to recruit at a national level. Lathan Ransom is another potential visitor, as is Damien Sellers. Johnny Wilson said he never considered going OOS until Texas came calling. - EJ's not sure why A&M backed off of CTJ. He had a terrific junior season and Fisher visited his high school a lot, but then contact dropped off and Texas is in the best spot to land him. - Most under-rated prospect so far is Joshua Eaton, outside the Texas top 50. Lot of P5 offers w/ A&M adding their name tonight. Another underrated kid is Jerrin Thompson from Lufkin, great as a nickel prospect. Thinks Texas should take a harder look at him. - Eaton and Watts are very similar players. Watts is a bit thicker, Eaton is more athletic. Both very raw in their technique. Would put them in the same rankings range. - Demond Demas apparently joined the Periscope, along with Tommy Brockermeyer who had a dominant day in Dallas. - Majors will be a very good center. EJ is OK with his drop in the rankings, he's very intelligent and a potential multi-year starter but won't wow you with his athletic traits or upside. - Charles Wright from Austin High is a kid Roach likes. Could be a guy that rises. - EJ now getting grief for the Noah Cain saga. - Regarding receivers, Texas is in a great spot with Johnny Wilson. Troy Omeire and Demas are the two elite in-state WRs, and Texas is in a tough dogfight with A&M for both with Demas already an A&M commit. Troy is visiting Texas on March 9th and it'll be huge in his recruitment. UT is in a good position with Quinten Johnston (recently got a rankings bump) and JJ Hester out of Oklahoma. - Something about BBQ, and Whataburger vs. In-n-Out. - EJ would take Johnny Wilson over Demond Demas. Demas is a better athlete with a higher ceiling. Wilson is a more polished prospect and is gigantic. What stands out for Johnny is his route-running. Doesn't struggle to get in and out of breaks like Brennan Eagles did, he glides through his routes. Can't go wrong with either. - EJ is close to putting in Texas CBs for Johnny Wilson but he wants to wait and see with him. Washington and Oregon are the two biggest threats. Could legitimately run a 4.5. - EJ still thinks JaQuinden Jackson should be a five-star. Next Cam Newton, etc. etc. Not expecting an early commitment. Texas should tell him he can play any position "because he's awesome". - O-line needs for the 2020 class have been addressed, in a good spot with D-line as well. Need corners. - Princely Umanmielen joined the Periscope, asked EJ if he's into fashion. EJ reeled off some brand names. - Texas wants to bring in Damien Sellers for a visit. EJ doesn't pay to go for tournaments, his expenses are covered as a 247Sports reporter for the most part. - Darnell Washington is a real-deal, five-star stud. Was awesome this weekend. - @OnAComputerrecommended that EJ visit P. Terry's Burger Stand. EJ absolutely hated it, said it was a 'trash burger'. More BBQ talk. - EJ really likes Josh White. Another down year for LBs in-state but White's a brought spot along with Brennon Scott. Similar to David Gbenda. - EJ's wife still disagrees with him over his hairstyle. EJ would never move to Austin, says he's 'team Dallas'. - Jase McClellan will be tough to flip from blOU. Texas should have offered him earlier, they may have secured his commitment first. - Texas will take two safeties and a nickel. This is not as good of a DB class in-state as 2018 but it could be comparable. Lorando Johnson, RJ Mickens, CTJ, and Dwight McGlothern are EJ's favourite in-state DBs this cycle.

  6. A&M probably backed off CTJ when they found out he was a Surly poster who owns a day spa and dines with EJ.
  7. this is a very alarming aspect to trump's presidency, honestly. i think the reason he doesn't mind murderous autocrats is because he wants to be one himself. this is worse than all the graft crimes and russian collusion. he really wants to be able to murder people with impunity. i really think he wishes he could have jim acosta dragged screaming from the press pool to some dungeon somewhere for torture. he just is a terrible human being. you have to think: if you were in the presence of a known murderer, would you be cool with that? i know being president means you have to rub shoulders with some unsavory characters, but you do not have to heap lavish praise on the shoulders of known killers. but he does, with kim, with putin, with MBS. our president wants to be like those people. or maybe he is already like those people, he just cannot act as they do, and it infuriates him. think about that for a second, because it really transcends politics.
  8. Well, he's right. The reason he makes spelling errors is because he's stupid.
  9. And the bartender says what will it be Mr. Sack, Mr. Hooker and Mr.icono.....the usual? Pink Daiquiris all around?
  10. Megan McCain only takes shots at Trump when it involves her late father. The rest of the time she’s still a full fledged trumpublican. Her lies and deliberately distorted commentary on abortion this week were gross and enraging. I don’t have a dick to override my brain, so my thinking on her isn’t nuanced. Fuck that chubby talking ball of Botox and hair bleach.
  11. No. Just no. MSNBC has left leaning commentary mixed in with news reporting that is filtered through a liberal viewpoint. CNN has pretty middle of the road news reporting. They’re commentators are 75% left leaning. Then the bend over backwards to pacify the nutters cauterwalling about “fake news” and hire people like Santorum and Sarah Isgur. Haven’t heard about Isgur? CNN is basing its business model on this “false fairness” - trying to straddle the middle by have Trumpkins and leftists to grab viewers from both ends. To compare either to Fox is just lazy. As bad as CNN and MSNBC can be neither of them make up things out of thin air, ignore actual news in favor of pushing some bullshittery about a caravan invasion/MS-13/infant slaughter/whatever scare old people topic of the week, report on conspiracy theories as if they were facts (Seth Rich/Comet Pizza/Jade Helm), allow an on air personality to lie on air about people stalking and attacking his home and let him keep his job and never correct that lie or apologize, allow an on air personality to call immigrants dirty and diseased and keep their job, allow on on air personality to expose personal information about a teenager who survived a mass shooting because she doesn’t like his politics and keep her job, employ Lou Dobbs. Fox News is actual propaganda and literal lies wrapped in a blanket of racism and sexism dipped in stupidity. The others aren’t even close. When CNN runs a story about the Trump kids involvement in a shady murder cover up and how Ivanka’s purses are used to smuggle in foreign children for their Park Avenue sex cult, then we can compare.
  12. FOX isn't slanted to the right. It is the media outlet for whatever GOP is in office or the constant adversary of any Dem that is in office. FOX has a policy of distortion and lying and have hired known liars (Oliver North) to put on the air. It's not a matter of degree of difference in what is bad about these news stations. It's a matter of species difference. FOX apologists (I don't label you one) compare CNN's failures to meet a standard of objectivity with FOX's not even having such a standard. Cable TV news is an intolerable shit show to me. CNN follows the lead of the print media in finding a story and then beats it to death with panel after panel of experts and pundits. CNN is more of a clearing house than a news organization. MSNBC is an answer to the rabid right that has now seized the GOP. It's largely opinion and doesn't try to hide that fact. They have embraced a slant, but it's honestly done. Again, show after show about the same story makes it only watchable when I know almost nothing about the leading story of the day. Maddow is invaluable for bringing a person up to speed. If you're already up to speed, it's a maddening slog. FOX fatuously claims: We report, you decide. I'll repeat something I wrote years ago on Hornfans. Their motto should be We report, you ignite. They're not remotely concerned with meeting any standard for anything except keeping hold of the angry right wing viewers that make them tons of money.

  15. Yeah, just kidding about Gen X. We clearly don't matter, like at all. We're the net in the tennis match between the old bulls and the young bucks. Was sent a great piece from the Financial Times that I thought did a great job looking at what has happened between the two generations, objectively. https://www.ft.com/content/cbed81fc-3b56-11e9-9988-28303f70fcff?fbclid=IwAR1HCiTQlDyaelaaYtYeYV-6I_XjSe272IwTasn_2u9MzyahhW1JQ_OsquY&fbclid=IwAR0GcIZ3HxF0r5fvO3hstag44j8kmaODEkzTOXg0WvR6D0YC0CHHMH3oU4k I think it's a really interesting thesis. And I think it's helpful in that it points out that BOTH generations have been acting -- and WILL act -- out of self-interest. It demonstrates the downside of a naked "F you, I got mine" system -- eventually, when the "I got mine" demographic can't control the system.....the demographic that got hosed will just take their shit. There's a lesson here. Ensure that the system is relatively balanced, doesn't play favorites, and doesn't allow people to utterly escape consequences (cushioning consequences is one thing, but eliminating them is a huge market distortion). Of course, underneath that is the need to have a system that allows for and prompts intervention (legal, political, etc.), BEFORE the consequences of failure become so huge that they have to be staved off to avoid an even bigger disaster....which in the end, may simply postpone the day of reckoning. Anyway, I thought that this was a pretty good take, without getting bogged down in the minutia of monetary policy.

    They are a minstrel show for republicans and conservatives.
  17. She's really good and awesome and cool. AOC 2028, let's go.
  18. I think everyone is missing the point. It doesn't matter if Bibi took some bribes or broke some laws. What matters is that the Jews protect Israel from the hordes of unwashed Arabs so that Jesus Christ Our Lord and Savior returns to smite the non-believers. And Jesus Christ praise be his name in all glory isn't coming back unless the Jews are holding down the Holy Land.
  19. You sure about that?

    I guess there's always that 10% that didn't get the message... But I guess you'd say this evidence is merely circumstantial?
  22. Books about how to tie up women in your basement using nothing but bras and rubber bands
  23. Really not surprising considering what leftists like him believe. But I guess that's what you have to resort to when you can't back up your positions with logic and reason and the fact that Lincoln was a Republican.

    The best thing about Donald Trump is that he has finally exposed these people for who they really are. They are terrible in every way. Just bad people.

  28. Can we please go back to our old policy of spoilering stuff that's a) NSFW and b) posted between the hours of 9 am and 5 pm on weekdays?
  29. I want my 60 seconds back for just reading this post... It goes nowhere...
  30. Then I hope I don’t feel like he does.
  31. Opening the lid to Trump's finances would be like opening a shaken beer of felonies.

    This might be the quintessential Trumpkin post...he says he's old enough to take shit as well as he gives it, but he then ignores the second sentence of a 2 sentence post regarding something insanely stupid he has said.
  33. One of my biggest pet peeves is when I’m sitting on a patio enjoying drinks or a meal and some dumbfuck pulls up in their Harley and revs the engine for a minute. Assholes.

    So you guys seem to be on the early side of things... a window into things to come On Valentines day, on the way into school, my 15 yr old son asked if we could stop at the grocery store so that he could get some candy for a girl he likes. Latter that evening... Me: Hey how'd school go today? Did Jane like the candy you bought her? Son: I don't know, she didn't have any of it Me: Oh, well was it awkward when you gave her the candy? Son: No Me: Good, I know you asked Jane out before, and she wasn't interested, just make sure not to be the creepy guy that can't take a hint, ok? Son: Yeah, it's not like that. We decided not to date, but just to be friends with benefits... Me: Uuuuh Do you know what that means? Narrator: He knows what that means /scene In our next episode... buy condoms for your son or make him buy them?
  35. Give her a razor, cuz that 'stache is nasty.
  36. Not sure we needed to know you can't keep your Willie or Johnson straight.
