I might as well just give up on trying to build this house.

Arkansas game week
I'm assuming we're getting a varsity-level troll job here.

I took U75.5. It's down to 74 now.

College Football 2021
Iowa also played a pretty good IU team while ISU played a pretty good FCS team. Not completely apples to apples but I see your point. It just always seems ISU chokes in this game.

Added Horns -8.5 late also. 2-0 today. What's everyone think about Ole Miss-Louisville U76? That's a lot of points for opening week when offenses usually start rusty. Plus no Kiffin on the sidelines.

Game Week- Louisiana
Did I say it bothered me? I was responding to others saying we were an afterthought on Fox last night.

I hate betting week 1 but I'm only on Michigan v. W. Michigan U66. Nothing else really jumps out at me but I also suck at betting.

Game Week- Louisiana
I haven't been to a home game in 7-8 years. Does that weather douche still come on the Jumbotron after the 1st quarter to tell us it's hot?

Game Week- Louisiana
Fox is going to fuck us all year long. In their eyes, I'm sure we're single-handedly ruining their CFB lineup. Prepare to have every pre-game dipshit bad mouth us, and we'll probably even catch shade from Gus and Joel. The sooner we can leave, the better.

The New Car Fanatic Thread
What's stopping you from buying a 911 and putting miles on it? That's my plan once I become rich.

That explanation is still pretty spot on. I still fuck it up from time to time.

Tell me what's happening in Afganistan (no CR. Can't we all just get along?)
The C-130s were old E models that were given to the Afghan Air Force many years ago.

The new GT3 might be my favorite Porsche design ever. Just so sexy.

General construction industry news, rants, questions
You guys see an end in sight for the madness? Our revised bid for our home build has increased $200K since March. Are there certain materials or selections that are easier and/or cheaper to come by now? For example, if you tell me a black shingle is 2x cheaper than a gray shingle right now then I know what I'm switching to.

New SEC divisions and pods thread (Page 38 starts recent discussion)
I kind of like the idea of no divisions or pods. You have 1 permanent opponent (TX-OU, Bama-Aub, etc.) and everything else is a random round-robin. 4 best teams in a playoff to crown an SEC champ. With 9 conference games, I feel pretty confident we'll get the 4 best teams and this won't reward a team for being in a weak pod. This would help us avoid the 2008 Big 12 scenario.

COVID-19 2nd wave - Texas only - Stats and such
How about people who are educated, non-MAGA wearing nutjobs, white, but have had severe adverse reactions to previous immunizations? Does that fit into any of your stereotypes? Because that's me. I love the double standard of it not being socially acceptable to stereotype due to race, religion, sexual preference, etc., but we can all rally around the fact that everyone without the vaccine is either poor or ultra-conservative.

I just signed up. I prefer venmo if you want to send it.

NFL Betting 2021
I read that the UNDER has hit on the first 18 games of the pre-season so far, so what do I do? I throw a little down on the UNDER of the first game of the day, Bears-Bills. What happens, you ask? The OVER hits in the first half. Why do I even try? I had to dig out of the hole, so I bet the OVER on Packers-Jets because 32 seemed way too low. That one hit.

ISIS and the Taliban generally don't like each other. I saw some pretty cool ISIS v. Taliban fire fights at night on NVGs. If you were going into J-Bad, you could usually see their skirmishes to the south near the Pakistan border.

COVID-19 2nd wave - Texas only - Stats and such
Take this for what it's worth, but we had to call EMS for my wife's grandmother last week due to difficulty breathing and other symptoms that were COVID-like. She stated to the paramedics something along the lines of "There's no way I have COVID, I've been vaxxed!" [/old lady voice]. Their response was "Ma'am, we've taken more vaccinated patients to the ER than unvaccinnated". This is in my little slice of suburban DFW. It turns out she tested negative either way.
