    Bama Game Thread: Bama PostGame Thread - Bama vs. OU...

    Not our most rational reactions, friends. Reading through about half this thread has me a little sad and bewildered, and not about the team. It's a good Oklahoma team. Good predictors estimated that we'd be 8-2 right about now, and that that would be a successful season and position us well...

    BREAKING James Franklin Fired Per CBS Sports

    Yes, or, to put it another way, perhaps the losses weren't the cause of his firing, but the effects of the deeper problems that led to his firing.

    Charlie Kirk Part III

    Good, thanks. So Trump is the most recent human face on the Jeffersonian law that government erodes liberty, and our main hope that that law could be resisted would be convinced and knowledgeable republican ideologues firmly in political power but devoted to conceding power back to their...

    Charlie Kirk Part III

    Thanks. All this is very helpful. Thanks to all who are contributing, actually, to this particular discussion of whether Trump is Fascist or not. Not being a political scientist, I find the issue both important and confusing. Tidewater, would you be prepared to say that the Trump...

    Decline of the GOP - XVI

    Well, most colleges are pretty highly politicized. I've learned in four and taught in four (secular and Christian). It isn't just about "different perspectives" and "free thought." There isn't a value-neutral stance from which to view perspectives and thought -- that's what post-modernism...

    The transfer portal is hurting my son's chances of playing on the college level.

    Littles always were more important than college football. Congratulations for being able to feel the truth, now.

    Trump's Policies Part 6

    I have been thinking about this message, particularly its second paragraph about reading Trump negatively no matter what he does. I understand your point, but I also think that reading Trump negatively no matter what he does is defensible, and that is interesting to consider. If we believe...

    JessN: A-Day wrap-up: What it wasn't, was A-Day

    I was a small-town sports reporter in south AL in the mid-90s. High school kids could make some financial demands even back then. Private schools could respond more easily than public schools.

    Game Thread: SUPER BOWL LIX : Kansas City Chiefs vs Philadelphia Eagles (Fox @ 530pm CT)

    One can imagine that Jalen wishes he could have made the 2nd and 26 throw to Smitty to win the NC. One can imagine he even thinks that was his throw to make, if life was fair. Now, he has, and five yards longer. Just a little sweetness and justice on top of the many others in the game.
