Took over a decade to remind all twelve of those men who daddy still is!! šš¤š¼šš¤š¼

However, Iām confused. Aggy has been telling us for years we couldnāt compete in SEC???
-
To be fair, with the illegal substitution call he was arguing, as well as that call after calling timeout with 4th and goal, Elmo may be lacking as well. Having said that, give that man his 10 year/$100 Millie extension already!!
-
Weāre not talking about thoseā¦
-
It sucks for them there is instant replay to fix correct calls. Iāve always said A&M fancies themselves to be like Nebraska fansā¦big difference being Nebraska fans know football.
-
I was told this was going to be the loudest crowd in the history of tackle footballā¦
-
Iāve been eating crow all half after about 3 absolutely elite throws.

Read my mind buddyā¦

Texas played in the first, third and fourth most expensive ticket games this season.

Can I get some respect now!!!. Woodville goes to state!!

Thatās correct. Thatās before Woodville integrated in 2012. -
I donāt benefit from it, thatās not my area. But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway. These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but Iām sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So whatās the point? We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime? And I donāt know I can say we have ācomplicatedā it. Which appeal should we cut out? Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck? Or do we not pay for an indigent personās experts at the trial court level because itās too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they werenāt actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we havenāt unjustly ended) and save a ton of money? Seems to me to be an obvious solution but Iām more of a pragmatist.

Has Elmo gotten his aggy premature extension yet? Pay him already because you guys were exactly right - he really does āget you.ā šš¤£

Aggy will end up with 4 losses, one way or another and wonāt make playoffs. But Super Bowl for them is next week so, as always, their season can be defined by game against big brother. See ya next Saturday Gomers!!

Ole Miss OUT BAMA OUT Aggy OUT SEC it just means more ššššš
-
I think it was as much giving them a 99.5 yard field if we miss. But that was a big boy, āwe are going to punch the best part of your team in the mouth and make you like itā drive.

If only we had a competent backup so Quinn didnāt have to play hurt, looking like hammered dog š©
-
That was an elite jinx job by the play by play guy.
-
No need to have Quinn out there hobbling and Blue needs to be glued to the bench until he learns to protect the ball.
-
I love defense. Been a while since Iāve been able to enjoy one of ours like this one.
-
We were just talking about he reminds us a little of David Thomas. I liked the way his last season ended. Love Helm. I think Kelvin Banks is my favorite this year. Replacing TāVondre Sweatt from last season
-
But, but Texas gets all the calls !!
-
I may do this next year and not leave the house. My wife couldnāt be more sick of my BS anywayā¦

I agree. Murder is never justified, whether done by a criminal or by the State. We should never take an innocent life if it can be avoided. And there is only one way to do that. Donāt kill someone if it can be avoided. (And to save a potential rabbit hole, I have no issue with self-defense or defense of others killings, whether by law enforcement or citizen.)
-
The answer to letās try not to execute innocent people isnāt letās give them less due process. Thatās the way of thinking in countries where women arenāt allowed to show their faces.

My personal belief is that God can do great things even with lives that begin with rape or incest and there is anecdotal proof of that in both instances. Itās also not me who has to carry that daily reminder to term so I get the argument in those instances. The argument that someone who is 18 and was able to fill out a voter registration form should decide whether someone gets to continue to live is an easier argument for me. But again, thatās just me. Iām not cool with a system where we potentially kill innocent people because they couldnāt afford a decent lawyer just because it makes us feel better. Especially when we have life without parole and itās a less expensive option in the vast majority of cases.
