I would expect any Pac-12 leftovers (assuming the conference dies) to prefer the American over the MWC for the same reasons that the Pac-12 is dying in the first place. That's assuming they couldn't figure out some deal to join the Big XII or the ACC.

If a US citizen wants to vote and doesn’t have an ID, making it to where they can’t vote, that’s the definition of voter suppression. Also, the intent is clear by allowing a handgun license to be used but not a student ID.

lol fat chance. Voter suppression because “the election was stolen”, bathroom bills, being able to open carry in a Dairy Queen, etc.

Oh, you’d rather I link books on Amazon? And no, there’s only a certain group of people with tinfoil hats on trying to legislate their paranoia into law.

UNT could very easily fail upwards again. That said, there are only going to be 2-3 "real" conferences after this, and neither of them will be named PAC-12 or Big XII.

The tsunami has been here for a while. If it's just now reaching your neighborhood, consider yourself lucky.

Many times. My friend's brother worked there for a couple years when I was in junior high, and she used to get free pizza for us pretty regularly. RIP

Grew up in Richardson and live in Fort Worth now. I really miss the Richardson area for a few reasons, not the least of which is for the food.

RV was really bad at coaching hires. McCasland was Wren's first big hire, and so far so good.

https://www.ala.org/advocacy/intfreedom/hate#FN 1 "Generally, however, hate speech is any form of expression through which speakers intend to vilify, humiliate, or incite hatred against a group or a class of persons on the basis of race, religion, skin color sexual identity, gender identity, ethnicity, disability, or national origin. " Seems like a fair definition and makes classifying the quote from the previous post pretty cut and dry. Speech that I hate is that UNT is a commuter school, or the Mean Green will never do anything in athletics. Hate speech is denying someone's existence. Nobody censored this man. He showed up to what would be an obviously hostile environment and was boo'd out of the room. That's about as American as it gets. If he wanted a platform to espouse his controversial views, there are infinitely more and better opportunities than what's probably the second most liberal school in the state. Why the pause? Also, I'm not sure what would be the equivalent insult of calling a transgender woman, 'a clearly confused man in a dress.' If you don't recognize that as heinous... That we can agree on. There's only one person on this forum I wouldn't have a beer with pregame, and that one is not you my friend. 😂 Go Mean Green!

It's hate speech. https://www.jeffyoungerfortexas.com/post/who-does-the-left-attack-effective-conservatives

There's a difference of being tolerant of someone whose views you disagree with, and expecting someone to be tolerant of hate and bigotry. Back to the old tried and true...

I referred to hateful people as hateful. Not even sure what national events you’re alluding to or how they’re tied to my statement.

No semantics were used. I said I don’t engage with hateful people. You used that to call my character into question and turn yourself into some sort of bizarre victim of my statement. My use of lashing out had nothing to do with disagreement and everything to do with your belittling of me as a person despite knowing nothing of me outside of “my type.”

Good! People usually show their ass pretty quickly in those types of discussions.

So you felt compelled to lash out in a superior, uncivilized way because you perceived my statement about not engaging with hateful people as applying to you? Might be time for some soul searching. Plenty. Again, if you took this to apply to you personally, maybe you should look inward.

I'll bite. Communication studies (and by close relation, psychology) teaches that gender is a social construct while sex refers specifically to biology (reproductive organs, chromosomes, hormones, etc).

Had a long typed out reply that rambled too much for my taste. I'm not going to debate someone who's racist, homophobic, transphobic, classist, and/or ignorant (not referring to you, saying in general). I'm sure there are ways of changing some peoples' minds on those types of things, and props to the people who have that level of patience...I'm just not one of them.

And by 'deal made with Facebook' you mean when she created an account for Facebook Marketplace, right?
