re: Having Tulane and JMU in the playoff this year is just inexcusable

Awful rules and turning out exactly as expected. No group of 5 team is ever going to win a playoff game against a P4 playoff team
I'm not watching the same handful of SEC and Big Ten teams over and over again. That bores me. Like, you watch all these interminable rounds of playoff football and at the end you can really, really say with great accuracy "those guys really are the best at tossing around a pigskin?" Who cares? What does that get us that's good?

re: Will Hall to be elevated to head coach of Tulane

I understand the criticism but Will's HC experience was at USM which is easily among the least resourced schools in the country. That's why Huff was looking to get out immediately.
USM and Tulane are more similar when it comes to resources than you might imagine. Tulane hired Bob Toledo and then sent him and his team to play Rice on a Greyhound bus. Yeah, they've got a bunch of money in their endowment, but they're hamstrung when it comes to spending it on football, probably by a bunch of faculty senate blue-haired weirdos.
USM doesn't have a big endowment like Tulane, but they don't lean on student athletic fees to the extent most other G5 schools do, and you can see they've got money when you look at how they've built up their physical plant. All that poor-mouthing their athletic department people do really is shameful. They turn right around and brag about how cheap they were all year on their own performance reviews. If Reed Green Coliseum were used by the Department of Social Work instead of the basketball team, it would be a state-of-the-art facility. That's just the mentality there. It's a public school that wants to be Agnes Scott College or Sewanee or something.

I've assumed since I was 19 that there would be no SS payout for me when I retired, and I planned accordingly.
If you were in prison and you loaned another inmate money, and he failed to pay, would you be OK with it because you'd just assumed it was a gift? Or would you ruthlessly exploit the deadbeat until he regretted his own existence? There's a right answer there.

re: Does anyone actually prefer the playoffs over BCS
Posted by Porpus on 12/18/25 at 5:38 pm to JamalMurry27
I preferred just having bowl games with conference tie-ins and then voting. The whole "bUt We nEEd a REal CHamp!" thing was just a ploy by ESPN to make money, and make money by televising some very bad, boring football. I say frick all that shite. BYU won a national championship? Boo hoo. Try again next year, Jackie.
False.
We can't base our economy off of resource extraction (i.e. oil) and maintaining each other's houses. That's what the economy of a colony looks like, not the economy of an empire or even of a free people.

The guy started it when he threw his shoulder at her. That would have been inappropriate coming from another customer. For an employee to do that is inexcusable.
Was her response disproportionate? Yes, but he shares the blame here. If he had done that to a White woman, and she'd fallen over instead beating the crap out of the guy, then people in this thread would be criticizing him for sure.

re: How do so many people fall for blatant AI posts on Facebook?

There seems to be a whole cottage industry of AI schlock for old people out there. Example: LINK
I guess if your idea of cool / relevant is Easy Rider, AI stories about kindly biker gangs have a certain appeal.
Seems like something in need of government regulation TBH.

When my oldest child was born, the hospital sent us home with a VHS tape about parenting the new baby. It was hosted by Reiner and he was wearing a fuzzy purple sweater. Wife and I were like, get a load of Meathead here with the words of wisdom :lol:
re: How do you think Will Hall is going to do at Tulane?
Posted by Porpus on 12/14/25 at 10:25 pm to Jacobowitz
Hall was really bad at USM. It wasn't like he was up and down or caught a few bad breaks. Even in the one year Hall took USM to a minor bowl game, the team got blown out at home by a really bad Georgia State squad. His last year, they got blown out 44-7 by Jacksonville State. Who even is that??
What combination of laziness and arrogance led Tulane to do this, I have no idea, but I can assure you that in Will Hall you have a coach who will make Bob Toledo, Buddy Teevens, and Greg Davis look like worthy successors to Vince Lombardi himself in comparison.

I thought there was something called American football where big bouncer-looking dudes got paid to beat the snot out of each other and that was kind of the whole point. I guess if you learned about football from a PlayStation things might be different for you.
re: Michigan knew about the affair rumors back in the summer

I don't really follow college football, but I was shocked when I first read of this guy and his firing. There's no way I'd hire that person as HC if I had Michigan's money and clout backing me up. He has the phrenology of a serial liar and he doesn't have the resume regardless.

Moore's gone, right? Successfully doing one's job without needing hand-holding from someone else is the opposite of incompetence.
