I like that there are three ways to get your plus/minus points:

1. Dive into a political thread and get dog-piled +/- by the majority that screws around on the political board (see Eagle-66, Screaming)

2. Dive into a basketball thread and get rated on how much you express appreciation for the team's current year performance)

3. The way it was intended, where you evaluate each thread as a whole and just reward extreme + and - content.

That being said, seeing some of you freak out about your ranking tickles me. If we can't properly evaluate each other, how can we properly evaluate and solve the challenges facing our teams, school and the entire world?

Easy to say from your lofty perch in the "Top 10" :lol: Amazing how far you've come. From troll to GMG powerhouse. VH1 should chronicle your story and include snappy comments from Tasty, Green P1, CMJ, CBL, Miner & others.

Man, that is some lofty company. I don't think my comments are anywhere near original or funny, but it is the only way I can deal with the rehash that goes around. My only wish is my sometimes-subtle Browncoat references get picked up by someone.

My friend used to say "MTV is where artists go to sell out, VH1 is where the grow old and die."

crap.

As one who has very little stake in the game (I don't post often, and when I do it rarely provides much significance), I will be up front on how I vote:

1) If you ask, lobby or pander for points you get a minus. Like the bozos who throw beads from the Bourbon Street balconies without seeing the boobs, those who give popularity points or respond to the beg are cheapening the currency. Don't ask.

2) If the only possible explanation for your post is to hijack or derail the thread, you get a minus. In all likelihood, I will run out of reputation points each day.

3) Any post that comments on another post, that reflects the writer can not pick up on obvious sarcasm, gets a minus.

4) Conversely, if you are providing valued insight (positive or negative) that is well-stated and , in my view, reasonable in its tone, you get a positive. I will rarely run out of points for this category.

5) Those who have a very strong reputation (even before the point system was offered) are graded on a curve...each post from the geniuses must stand on its own, and is held to a higher standard. Said genius does not get points based solely on past relevance.

I never endorsed the reasons why.

However, if I wandered into the political forum and posted a hypothetical pro-liberal rant, the same thing would happen to me.

Maybe the reputation standings need an electoral college? :D

My high school experience was pretty much like how things went in School Ties. Does that mean the reputation ranking is the banner above our dorm beds?

I'm debating whether to pander to some more people (a different group this time) to get more shameless reputation.

Any ideas how to make guns sexy? How about chicks with guns?

Lets just see how supportive the gun crowd really is. I currently have in my 1 bedroom apartment nine firearmsIMG_0759.jpg?t=1266608472

From top to bottom:

Charles Daily 12guage semi-automatic- used for Skeet and Trap

Miroku 12guage over/under- just given to me by my pops as a new Trap gun.

Stevens Savage Arms .410- First attempt at restoration in middle school, could probably use it again. Originally my Granduncle's.

Remington 550-1 .22- My most recent restoration. Originally my Grandmother's varmint killing gun.

Western Auto "Revelation" .22- restored from a rusty inoperable mess. Given to me by my Grandfather the last time I ever saw him.

Weihrauch HW 30 pellet rifle-Semi-restored. Originally my pops childhood bird killer.

Crossman 3500 Slide Action bb gun-bought at a swap meet when I was 4. Dropped countless blackbirds(and quite a few Mocking Birds… but hey I'm colorblind!) with this baby as a kid. All without the aid of proper sights.

Winchester 02-22-Kinda awaiting restoration, but not sure. Originally issued to my Great Grandfather by the Boy Scouts of America.

Rock Island Arms 1911 nickel plated.45-Christmas present 2 years ago that I have very little use for. Fired on three occasions within a month of acquiring it and not once since.

Your guess is as good as mine.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
