They can be pussies and kill whoever they want so long as they don’t get caught until after leaving Alabama and giving us a championship or two on their way out. ...

Even though it will likely be inferior to the 1985 film directed by Steven Spielberg, times have changed and we need to make up for the fact that the original was nominated for 11 Academy Awards and failed to win a single Oscar that year. ETA: This time it's a musical. [link=(https://www.y...

It's allegedly from the game Arma III. I was absolutely enthralled until a missile actually hit the plane. That's when I figured out it was an obvious fake. ...

I don't know how reliable this "news" is, but I think most people see that marriage ending in divorce. Markle is a cancer to that family and you know it's 100% her just based on how Harry was prior to getting into a relationship with her. I actually feel bad for the dude because he fell victim to a ...

[quote]Ukraine doesn't have enough troops left to encircle Bakhmut.[/quote] That might be true. Time will tell. But it’s as equally likely that Wagner no longer has the capability to do anything with their victory. The ground to the west of the city is good for defense, which is why so many analy...

[quote]Their defense has not been good the last couple years. [/quote] Alabama has finished in the Top 3 in the conference in both scoring defense and total defense in 13 of the last 14 seasons. The only season we finished outside that margin (2019), we were still #5 in total defense and #3 in s...

[quote]Where were these "fiscal conservatives" when their guy was in office[/quote] The one thing I have noticed over the last 10 years is that when Republicans are in the minority, they bitch and whine about finances. However, as soon as they take control of the House, Senate, Executive, or all ...

Ukrainian forces are launching assaults both north and south of the city and are gaining ground. It looks like they are attempting to encircle Bakhmut, thereby trapping Wagner inside the city. ...

The conspiracy that will never die. If anyone knows anything about the work that goes into a controlled demolition, you will know that it is absolutely impossible for Building 7 to have been purposefully imploded with dynamite. In order for a controlled demolition to go off, construction crews w...

[quote]Some of the most important battles in history were fought in middle of nowhere locations like Gettysburg.[/quote] Gettysburg wasn’t in the middle of nowhere.

All is well. It’s just the price of being in the Navy and on the sea part of your sea-shore rotation. ...

There will likely be another long absence from me for multiple weeks. So if someone wants to keep posting these updates every Saturday in lieu of my absence, more power to them....

It is 247 weeks since Germany invaded Poland. Here is what was going on 79 years ago during the week of 14-20 May 1944: [quote]In Italy, the Allies finally overcome Monte Cassino and break through the Gustav Line; in Burma Merrill's Marauders surprise the Japanese and take Myitkyina Airfield; in ...

I’ve never read a single Tom Clancy novel and decided to go in chronological order. So I started reading Without Remorse. I know Ryan only makes a cameo in the novel but I’m still enjoying the origin story of John Clark just over 200 pages in. Sad what happened to Pam. I can’t wait to see Tucker get...

It isn’t. ...

[quote]1. Cam Newton (Auburn Tigers, 2010)[/quote] No argument here. The man was the sole reason Auburn won the national championship that year. Without him and that's a 7-5 football team. It was absolute agony watching him take over the 2010 Iron Bowl in the second half and yet you had to ad...
