Randomness Dos

I nearly caused a meltdown when I insisted on squeezing in on my wife's side of the bed Friday night. Not exactly the desired effect.

Refs had called 1 live ball penalty on the Pack all night, not surprised by the outcome. That’s the way the ball bounces sometimes. Poor red zone D and poor red zone offense is why the Chiefs lost, no point blaming the zebras.

Feel terrible for FSU… Oregon, what could you have done to get in? Win your last game. Hey Georgia, what could you have done to get in? Win your last game. Hey FSU, what could you have done to get in? Absolutely nothing.
Not look totally inept on offense against two mid teams.

Michigan vs FSU is just Michigan vs Iowa part 2 imo Precisely. FSU barely had 200 yards of offense against a Louisville team that isn’t impressive in any phase of the game, and FSU’s defense is great, but not as good as Iowa’s. I’m ok with FSU getting in based on a reward for their season, but I do...

Oregon has an argument to be in the top 4 too. Their two losses are by a field goal to the #2 team. If it’s not about trying to determine the best team, but a reward for a full body of work they’ve got as much claim as any 1 loss team. If you lost twice to a team in the playoffs, you've already pro...

2023-2024 College Football Thread

FSU doesn't belong anywhere near a four team playoff. Why not? Is a spot in the top 4 a reward for your season, or is it the top 4 teams that are going to be out on the field? If it’s the former, FSU should be in. If it’s the latter, they’d be lucky to be 7th. Hell Oregon lost to the #2 seed twice ...

The big thing is that Cardale looked like a football player during the conference title game, didn’t he?

Yes I think its pretty normal. I'd also think that you'd do some sort of vulnerability assessment though when presented with the plan and say, "Hmm, that'd probably work, we need to change our protocols."

Biden has never been popular... even within the democratic party. How many left leaning people here said they're only voting for him because the other guy is an absolute psychopath?

Help Needed/Wanted for 5AF

I believe so faf, it's been over a decade since I (poorly) ran a phpBB.
I'd be willing to help technically, but I doubt I'd be of much worth. I'll definitely help financially, where I might be of marginally more worth.

Piggy back on that feeling a bit, My 13 y.o.’s softball practices are 40 minutes away.

*I'd buy staunch reproductive rights* Assuming we're talking about an average hetero marriage, reproductive rights are probably really important to 50% of the participants (one way or the other).

Again, echo chambers and a decrease in tolerance isn't what we're talking about. It's about your core beliefs and what you plan to teach your children.
