I see the collective American female brain short circuited today so that's fun.

She didn't make those charges though. I don't care about Swift one way or the other but banks and retailers getting away with this kind of tomfoolery happens all the time. It is insane how banking has changed in the last 15 years when it comes to something as simple as your personal checking account. The holds, multiple charges, and then the fees you get hit with because of those holds and multiple charges that they're responsible for adding in.

They added all kinds of bs after the last financial collapse and instead of demanding consumer protections Americans would rather worry about what people do in their private lives. And it's not just on this, we do it with everything. We trump up fake issues, manufacture moral crises that effect absolutely no one, and focus on solving those fake problems over very real ones.

I'm okay. Just dealing with some family stuff and the impending holidays.

I HATE holidays, because of the impending memories that come with them. I just plow through them through work and hope for the best. Everyone around me knows I celebrate January 2 as my holiday, because I know it’s finally over.

So Florida would win the Big 12? 😂

Dude, just because Kentucky and Mizzou are in the SEC doesn't mean they're that talented. They're not. TCU would probably handle Kentucky and Mizzou.

They recruit better don’t they? I never said either was talented, but they are both more talented than TCU. And having one first round pick draft doesn’t make the entire roster better. Florida and mizzou would handle TCU on both lines of scrimmage and this isn’t some SEC Bias type crap. It’s true at least imo. They gave up 7 or 8 tfl in the first quarter alone against Texas. I don’t even wanna think about what Ga would do to them or a legit top 4 team.

TCU is a top 10 team at best. I see a lot of teams in the 5-12 range that would be favored by 2 scores on a neutral field. If they win out I’ll have no problem with them getting in. I still don’t think they’re good.

Okay, after viewing highlight videos all season so many times I feel like I've watched every play 3x...I noticed that we fall down inside the 5 yard line SO MUCH. Not sure the cause, but I'm going to look into it. I'll be back soon.

I tracked all 62 TDs we scored this year:
  • We have scored 19 "explosive" TDs (>20 yards)
  • We have scored 16 TDs from between 5 and 20 yards out
  • We have scored 27 TDs from inside the 5 yard line
    • 10 of these were preceded by an explosive play in which we gained 20 or more yards and were tackled inside the 5.
    • This means 37% of them would have been explosive TDs if we had made it to the end zone.
*I did not count situations in which we were tackled inside the 5 and had to settle for a FG.

I'm sure there's no common cause, however it does seem rather unfortunate that 10 of our big plays were so close to scoring. I'd say it has affected Hooker's TD stats. Here are the 10 plays...Looks like they were all rushes and only 1 was Hooker's. He could have 6 more TDs!

Finally, looking at it one more way, with a little different luck, 29/62 of our TDs would have been of 20 or more yards!!!! That's just insane. But then again, so is scoring over 6 TDs a game...

Someone send this to the heisman committee. If we didn’t take him out in the 2nd half multiple times, and gave him the ball here when he already deserved the score, he’d be the clear cut favorite for it.

Coming from a UGA fan. . . coming from a Bama fan. Like saying the team they follow means their opinion means more for some reason. . .

Come on man, you're really reaching with this one. It's obviously a way to say "I dislike this team and even I think these helmets look nice." It's a very, very, common, almost cliche rhetorical device to remove any doubt ahead of time that bias is swaying your judgment. There's no way you haven't seen it used millions of times, no way you think they're actually saying" because UGA is such a great program my opinion means more."

Your posts are always solid, I'm taken aback by this one.
