Coffee and TV

It's so hard to vote against Big Red. What a legend.

Pretty terribly. I think the spread was like 55 points and NDSU covered about that much. Apparently the head coach of UIW scheduled them to "see how to build a FCS program".

I don't have season tickets and I'm on the fence about going. I'd definitely weather it (narf) with a club seat, but I'll probably just stay in front of my TV from noon to midnight watching college football if the rain is that bad.

They played NDSU the day College Gameday featured them in Fargo.

I do too but it gives me a tummy ache :-(

Beer makes for strange bedfellows.

oh. Hi.

It's a retirement, not a resignation. TONS of coaches and players announce it before the season even starts.

I feel like I'm back in the Dickey years.

Next time just sit on that mountain with your flask and get a hanjee.

Bravo. Never do anything half-assed, folks.

Shut up Hitler.

Such a racist and appalling statement that Joe Biden made. I hear he was cut from the Vice Presidential short list because Obama was so offended....

You're like a parody of yourself at this point.

Oklahoma State scheduled Florida State in JerryWorld earlier this year, in case you guys forgot. I don't know what makes you think they'd play us at Apogee. Better block off all the end zone and half the student section for their fans too.

Marshall actually had Louisville on the schedule but they dropped it at the last minute. I think that's why they had to get Rhode Island.

I see your examples of "Republicans championing black issues" as something of an analogy where UT hires Charlie Strong and says to UCLA "Hey look guys, we got a black coach, why don't you guys have one? Aren't we cool".

Good job moving the goalposts again. The original point was that Republicans haven't been the progressive party on civil rights when that they once were, nobody is arguing the great deeds done by Lincoln or Teddy Roosevelt or any Reconstructionist Republican congressman that were considered radical leftists in their time. I know what you meant, I didn't miss the point. You can beat your chest about Utah electing a black Republican all you want, but they're a deep red state who will elect just about anyone with an R next to their name, especially in a conservative-leaning district. That's really nothing to crow about when Democrats have been electing black congresswomen, senators, governors and even a President for 50 years. Not to mention they'll be the first to nominate and elect a woman for President in 2 years too.

And because we don't buy into that jingoistic horseshit that makes us what, racists? Race-baiters? What's your point in saying we see outside of that narrow scope and can see the issues facing minorities that they don't face in other countries?

Oh Rick, where to start. It's laughable because it's Jonah Goldberg. A guy who any self-respecting scholar has laughed at his revisionist version of history to sell books to guys like you. That's all there is to get. Both parties could take credit seeing as how he only got 11 dissenting votes, and he was nominated by LBJ. But again, that was 47 years go. Definitely a fine thing to brag about. You're cute sometimes. Arbitrary measurements are arbitrary. And you named possibly the most arbitrary examples you could. The first black female congresswoman was none other than a Democrat, and she was elected to her seat 40+ years ago. South Carolina has been a deeply red Republican state since the removal of Jim Crow laws that prevented them from voting or running for office in the first place. Of course no black Democrat is going to win with a D next to his name in South Carolina in 2014. They could have run MLK Jr as a Democrat and it wouldn't have mattered. lelz.

You highlighted the fact that he said "last 50 years" and then posted a quote from a (laughable) source that highlights Republican work done decades & a century before then.

Good luck and godspeed Gradumacated. You're entering a black hole of talking points, projection, and labeling that'll make your head spin.

Also, did anyone else see the meteorite that gave a green wave streak across the west of the stadium? Alumni side would have had their backs to it.
