I find this to be a handy reference whenever this subject comes up. I just wish they’d do one for the grinder/hoagie/sub issue.

Just my 2 cents, but whether the banners were put up by members of the frat or not makes it a matter of degree of the offense, not whether an offense has been committed. If a member DIDN’T put out those banners, they allowed it to happen and need to take more responsibility for frat property and regardless it reflects…

I did that to a girl. I walked up to her and she started to tell me she had a boyfriend. I interrupted her to tell her she is supposed to replace her weights when she is done. Not to mention wiping down the pads. There was some overlap in the exercises we were doing and I was tired of cleaning up after her. I’ve…

Mine had some weak ass greek system that didn’t even have houses. Like you we had isolated incidents of assholes, but they weren’t organized and didn’t control Student Government. They were, in fact, less visible and influential than our chess team.

I have a ten year old at home who can lie like that.

Ukwuachu said under oath that Baylor was never told about his violent past. Why would a guy who’s already going down say that?

And he is coaching college basketball again. At a Christian school in the NAIA. He probably played the whole “reformed sinner” routine. Of course it isn’t NCAA, but then his show cause order has lapsed, so if he could find someone to hire him, there is nothing stopping it.

“Back in my day we woulda framed her for selling drugs and convinced everyone she raped herself. Nowadays we treat these so called ‘victims’ of our players’ distractions with kid gloves. We only reduce their scholarship and pressure them to transfer schools. Pfffthhp! You happy Abar you snitching varmint! You ruined…

If this is real, it’s the epitome of what a bad/unfunny/uncreative writer thinks good/funny writing looks like.


Oh, this. 1,000. I’ll bet her Facebook friends, I mean blog followers, are all telling her “your so funny Luanne. You’re way better than that Amy Shoomer talking about her privates all the time. You should…

Every time someone accidentally calls me Dave, I assume they are thinking about Super Dave Osborne and I get REALLY stoked!

When I was first in school (K, 1st) and they made us say the Pledge of Allegiance I thought the line “for which it stands” was “for witches stands” and imagined that witches were all over America hunting for little children.

I played in Maryland in the 70’s. I guess that’s why crime was so high back then and we had to put up with disco. We didn’t make children take meaningless pledges they weren’t mature enough to understand before letting them play a game.

I’m sure it’s all the fault of participation trophies.

You had a little league pledge??? I played little league baseball for years and no one made me promise god a damn thing. Little league football either.

Is there nothing in this country we can’t do without some theo-fascist ritualizing??

Am I the only one disgusted that Bliss is coaching college ball again while Abar Rouse, last anyone heard or cared, was languishing on an aircraft parts assembly line? Sure Oklahoma Christian is not NCAA but NAIA, but that’s some lesson for the kids out there, huh?

Yes. Crime is down. Crime has been falling pretty precipitously for the last 20 years. All over America. There might be pockets here and there that show short-term up-ticks, but these often disappear in the statistical noise and even when they don’t they never come close to crime levels of 10, 15, or 20 years ago. Not…

This times 100. I teach at a large school in the SEC and they are the only names I can never remember by mid-terms. I’m to the point where I think they do it on purpose to confuse teachers.

But you are ignoring the negative consequences to society of long term participation trophies. Look at all that is wrong with this country. Crime is down. Teenage pregnancy is down. Teenage drug use, smoking, and drinking are down. And I could go on and on. Clearly participation trophies are eroding their character.

How do you know I haven’t tried it? Having it as part of a team sport in public just causes some concern.

I know this thread has been up for a couple of years, but I was just reading through it and found your reference to the “Save the Texas Prairie Chicken Fund” and had to thank you for the Monkees flashback. I don’t know if you are still around to read this, but, much like a wedding present, it’s the thought that…
