His overall record isn’t that impressive at 16-14-2. He finished his UFC career with a 7 fight losing streak.

You kind of explained your first sentence with your second. I think Dana White even said he let him fight one or two times more than he should have.

But that helps illustrate his reputation, good and bad. Rogan has said his peak was as good as anyone, so I'm sure he got some benefit of the doubt to keep fighting. But as others here have mentioned, his training was considered lackluster.

Nah, they'll just replace her with someone worse who has a (D) next to their name. See Chicago.

That's what I don't understand. She looks like she let a child randomly place stickers on her for fun.

He’s ruined his rep with LSU and won’t win any of it back

I don't believe that. As stupid and petty as this all is, time heals all wounds. Billy Cannon became a convicted felon and managed to rehab his image with LSU.

It has been fascinating to see the near universal ridicule of Jayden, though. The dude became a meme within 24 hours, and even people who hate LSU are calling out the idiocy. I can't help but think this situation gets smoothed out sooner than later.
Regardless of what happens moving forward, the headline is that a women's organization still held an emergency meeting to define what a woman is, and couldn't figure it out. And the majority of women in that meeting likely consider themselves to be feminists.

If we haven't reached peak idiocracy yet, we must be damn close.
Like others have said, you'll be fine. Despite our reputation, LSU fans are hospitable to outsiders who are just there for the experience.

We are New Englanders & fans of a team that doesn’t have that on campus game day experience

May I ask who you are fans of? Honestly, I've seen fans wearing gear of random schools get treated better than most people walking around tailgates.

IIRC I seem to remember a group of Minnesota fans, or some other B1G team, showing up and having a blast.

You’re all sheep. I really don’t give a shite either way bit to act like there are no questions with all of this is fricking retarded.

The "just asking questions" point is disingenuous. I don't know any rational person who believes there are no questions with all of this. Wilson himself said if Candace was simply making a reasonable doubt case, there wouldn't have been a debate.

The issue with Candace is that she makes grandiose insinuations or claims with flimsy evidence. I've said before that she presents some compelling circumstantial things, but she often connects dots between them with her own feelings, assumptions, or "dreams" to arrive at a conclusion.

For example, Wilson challenging her on the steakhouse receipt seemed kind of pedantic on its face, but it illustrated how she operates. She "broke the news" in January and said her source was "good enough" for her. When Andrew asked why you couldn't just verify a name from the credit card account, she said "stay tuned". I know journalism is dead, but that's some bullshite evidence.:lol:
I don't know if I have enough patience or interest to listen to a full replay of this, but the clips that are being posted on twitter don't make Candace look good.

Andrew does appear more restrained than normal, but perhaps he was trying to be more respectful to Candace than the feminists and OF whores he humiliates. Or she was yammering so much, he figured she'd hang herself.

Either way, I can't imagine she did enough to persuade anybody to her side. Her minions were going to claim victory for her regardless of what she said or did.

Oh damn, I didn’t know that introvert and selfish/self-absorbed were synonyms…. Learn something new everyday, I guess.

I don't get how it's "selfish" or "self-absorbed" to not reach out. They don't know each other. They haven't played for the same coaching staffs. Just because they both played at ASU and transferred to LSU doesn't create some special bond, particularly in the transfer portal era.

Hell, Jayden might not even know who is starting at QB for LSU. I certainly wouldn't expect someone of his demeanor to send a rah-rah inspirational text to Leavitt that means anything.

Auburn has been terrible and the Bama dynasty is down. His radio show doesnt hit the same and theres a ton of CFB content/podcast... I think he's just trying to find his way in the current climate.

Agreed. I would add that conference expansion has caused some of this, as well.

Paul always knew how to push the buttons of traditional SEC fanbases. But now, more fans from Texas, OU, and random Big Ten schools call in to talk shite, and I just don't think he cares.

Cheers and Frasier.

Especially if you consider them together.

This is my answer. I've done a couple of rewatches in order from the beginning of Cheers to the end of Frasier's original run.

And while Wings shouldn't necessarily be grouped together with those two, it did technically exist in the same universe, and featured multiple Cheers characters on a few episodes. One of Kelsey Grammer's first Emmy nominations as Frasier was from Wings.

Surprised by the women's bb championship

That was actually a great team coached by Carolyn Peck. After that, she was the next "it" women's coach, so she went to the WNBA, but sucked. Then she went to Florida and sucked. That's why she's been at ESPN forever.
quote:

Also consider, for those who think she was Derek Pomansky, that she would have been playing a heck of a long game since she signed up for TD in 2004.

Ree was never really a regular poster before Les was fired though. I only ever knew the username from random Food Board posts.

That's why people theorized it could be Ponamsky. When Ree joined TD, DP was a river pilot. Then I think he started his own LSU sports site for a while. Then while he had a radio gig, he got hired as the special assistant to Orgeron, and suddenly, Ree was campaigning on tRant and CC board all day, every day for O to get the job.

There was no "long game" being played because it didn't exist until 2016. I don't know if DP is Ree or not, but the timelines of both made people suspicious. And Ree claiming "he" was a "she" on an anonymous message board doesn't mean anything.

I still remember my dad losing it when Mr Wilson smiled after Dennis repaired his dentures with Chiclets.

My dad's an Akron alum, so I should forward this to him.

The chances are not zero that he immediately buys season tickets and starts drawing up trick plays out of the wishbone.
I finally watched this tonight, and had a blast.

It was probably longer than it needed to be, some of the jokes/quips were overdone, and I would've liked to have seen more from Battle Cat and Evil-Lyn, but those are minor complaints.

There were a few moments where I genuinely laughed out loud. When Adam exclaims "I have the power" and becomes He-Man, I got a charge up my spine. The Easter eggs referencing the old cartoon and 1987 movie were awesome, too.

I feel like rewatching this again soon just to catch anything I missed. Hopefully, Amazon follows through with the sequel. I'm almost compelled to go full nerd and buy a couple of the action figures for myself.:lol:

He's smart enough to know the truth, but he also knows that he can't stray too far from the hive mentality which exists inside the Hollywood Bubble.

I don't know. He has always welcomed discourse with conservatives, and has consistently been critical of Islam and socialism/communism over years. The left attacks him for it, and he doesn't seem to give a shite. The Hollywood Bubble has already strayed from him.

That's why I believe him when he says his vote is "in play". For those who don't watch Maher regularly, this is not the first time he has basically pleaded for Democrats to disassociate from the lunatic commies and love their country, warts and all. He wouldn't bother taking this stance if he was just going to keep voting Dem no matter what.
I know it was a long time ago, but considering CBS used to tolerate Pat Summerall getting shitfaced during live broadcasts, putting Romo on leave for this is kind of funny.

Nothing will happen to him.

Spanish citizens are as weak as the French and Canadians.

Just wait until the Sagrada Família gets attacked and, still, nothing happens.

These countries and people are broken beyond repair.

We'll see. Francoism has seen a rise in popularity among young Spaniards, and the most recent regional elections showed a shift to the right.

Marine LePen is leading the polls for the French presidency despite Macron trying to get her imprisoned so she couldn't run.

Furthermore, the AfD party is leading the German polls despite the media doing their best to ignore them.

Even in Ireland, Sinn Féin popularity has started declining, and their politicians are being called traitors.

Point being, Europe still seems to have a pulse. The next elections across the continent will likely determine if they can revive themselves.
