  1. Jimmy Carter may be the finest man ever to grace the White House. Was overwhelmed by the job but he might be the greatest ex-president we’ve had. I put the younger Bush in a similar category in terms of character and ilk. Carter has devoted his post-presidential time to charitable causes and even while battling cancer, showed up faithfully each week to teach his Sunday School class. I have to utmost respect for him as a human being.
  2. I thought it would be interesting what people would pull from this. If you notice back at the starting point, there wasn’t only one race represented, although to be sure those left behind were predominately minorities. And the speaker did make one reference to race/ethnicity before starting the kids running. Some of the criteria related to family (and particularly fatherly) involvement, most all were socio-economic. I found it to be very thought provoking on many levels.
  3. Will Fox be putting the World Series on the flagship channel or will the MLB continue to be preempted by compelling games like TCU-Kansas?
  4. Bad news for Tennessee. USC may jump to the front of the Chip Kelly sweepstakes.
  5. Mack, it’s a little sad how obsessed you are. Then again, when aggy literally hasn’t been really relevant in your lifetime, it’s tough to blame you.
  6. Did he flip off the Gomers...errr fans?
  7. You hit it on the head last week. The slightest pressure he pulls it down, stops looking downfield and tries to roll out. I almost think you’re better off with Buechele in a 2 min offense scenario.
  8. Did Burt step out of bounds on the play that set up the TD? I couldn’t tell on the replay at the stadium.
  9. Exactly what happened. We switched personnel on offense so referee has to hold snap until defense has a chance to sub.
  10. Don’t hold your breath, unless you’ve recently increased your cardio routine! But don’t worry, there are few whor.... err, congressmen on either of side of the aisle I feel are owed an apology!
  11. I would also say he had the best sense of humor of any President I can recall. Since he’s been out of office it is even more apparent, maybe because he appears more relaxed in interviews. The mispronunciations (the one you stated most notably) was actually kind of an endearing quality to me as it reminded me of not my mother and wife, each of whom seem to take joy in mispronouncing certain words.
  12. Is asking an off-topic question a diversion for a previous ill-conceived post?
  13. It would be your imagination if you didn’t read or understand the second sentence of my two sentence post. And for the record, it is not the first time I have been complimentary of W (and his father) on this board. I believe both to be fine Christian men.
  14. No Thank you. Not clicking on that!
  15. No not the current one. But one I apologize for any negative comments ever made about him. [Hidden Content]
  16. I hope not either because, like you, I am a Celtics fan and, therefore, hate the Lakers. But that is the word. And if so, although they may not beat GS, they will probably be better than any team in the East.
  17. The clown already posted one from an aggy source. Judging by the lame comments, some of those comments most certainly came from aggy. But, but they’ve moved on! From the conference they couldn’t crack, to another conference where they are decidedly mediocre at best. Poooooor aggy
  18. The two highest rated games last year didn’t involve the SECond to many conference. But one did involve the same team that was involved in the two most watched games of all time. You goobers stop talking ratings. Because like merchandise sales, branding, and everything else screaming popularity, you are, always have been, and remain our b^t€h. No matter how far you try to run (while still obsessing of course).
  19. We don’t need coaching advice from aggy. You guys have more losers on the payroll than the Knicks. Give Sumlin another extension. We will soon have two coaches alive who have played for a natty. Something you guys know nothing about.
  20. LeBron and George will be in LA next year. Championship will be western conference finals.
  21. That sure would be tempting to have Kuechel and Verlander for games 6 & 7 at home. But you don’t want to give away any games and I’m sure he was trying to stop the bleeding.
