Being a spoonfed propaganda mouthpiece, is not really something to tout as anything worth anything.

This guy has become a caricature of a parody at this point.

I'd lecture folks to ignore him, like I mostly do, but I can understand the joy some might take in watching him continue aimlessly flailing about like the imbecile he is.

Translates to “we can’t do shite, so we won’t do shite”.


It's more like, "we can't do shite, but we want to keep pretending like we can do shite, so we will keep stringing this stupid charade along trying to get as many people possible to believe that we might be able to do shite."

It's all so fricking tiresome.

Whats wrong with what he said? Cant say i blame him


He seemed like he was being honest.

I did think this was sort of funny: "What's wrong was that I wasn't on the sidelines."

Nah, I don't think so. :lol:
Any word on where in Bywater this might be?

That spot on Maple seemed a weird place for a cafeteria.
This whole goofy saga is really exposing how boring and humorless much of society has become these days.

They’re scared…that arse whipping laid on Clemson caught every off guard…


While Saban generally had our number in Tiger Stadium as coach at Bama, those games were generally among the most electric games I've ever attended.

I can't imagine what kind of buzzkill it would have been to have had him "suspended" just before, and not coaching in any one of those games.

No, they left voluntarily to "focus on academics."

Pretty boneheaded move, in retrospect.

Haven't looked at specifics in a while, but Acela is at least 30 minutes faster, but you do pay for it.


Some of my family did it this summer - just one way. I remember the Acela didn't seem appreciably faster (my understanding is, it's pretty substantially limited on stretches it's allowed to go at speed). While I'm guessing the train might have been a bit nicer, the regular one seemed nice enough, and certainly more comfortable and roomy than a coach airline experience.
I'm still trying to figure out what are the "nicer restaurants" the OP might be referencing, outside of steakhouses I guess, that would have typically had baked potatoes on the menu and are now "shunning" them -- without even needing to denigrate baked potatoes.

I'm a pretty old guy, and I don't recall ever seeing them on menus anywhere outside of those, or occasionally in more casual seafood/neighborhood type places.

ETA, Plus, don't most "nice" steakhouses still offer them?

Of course they did and ABC let them get away with.


Actively engaging with and participating in such shenanigans, is a bit more than "letting them get away with" it, I'd assert.

They've been doing this for 50+ years. :lol:

I reject this term in the context of people like Finebaum.

That’s an extremely shitty thing to say. Wow.


Just strikes me as more outright stupid than anything else.

but that is probably a doctored photograph.


I don't think it is.

See if you can find a real one that shows otherwise.

I feel like that actual replay screenshot is imbedded in my brain, and that's pretty much exactly as I recall. :lol:
