True. But the Hospitallers played the game right. When Acre was lost, the Knights of St. John established bases on Rhodes and Bodrum and then eventually Malta, where they lasted for 500 years.

I went to TCU before they became a college football staple, so it was always fun hearing from ATM/UT T-shirt fans about how a small school like TCU doesn’t deserve the big stage. It is crazy how many fans those two schools have that literally never stepped foot on campus.

Don’t forget - hates abortion but had his girlfriend get one.

“Unfortunately, when I’m there, every white person in there automatically becomes Jeff Sessions in my head. Which is why I take my food to-go.”

There is also stuff like the reaction to the Nat Turner rebellion in which the euphoria swept the south and slaves who had no connection (some hundreds of miles away) were hanged by an angry mob.

Yup let’s just keep voting Cruz in.

Remember the five.

You’re right. I believe I read in my military history that while the British and Americans were responsible for taking out the Luftwaffe, I believe 3/4 members of the Wehrmacht were killed by Russians. A pretty staggering number.

A true friend stabs from the front.

I remember reading that after Paxton saw Super Troopers, he contacted the Broken Lizard guys and told them he wanted to be in their movie, and thus, we were blessed with Coconut Pete.

Sure it was dumb, but damn did that movie have some fun parts. Almost all of Paxton’s lines were great. RIP Coconut Pete.

Just splendid. Only bowlcut boy Davis could screw up a sure thing that was the Raiders going to Vegas. As a (now former) chargers fan, it is nice to see the NFL’s shady machinations and city blackmailing schemes colossally backfire.

Sad!

Worst case, he gets fired and goes to work at the same bar in Cancun that Tomsula is holed up at and perhaps he can use his status to get Jimmy T a promotion to barback.

I agree. One thing I’ve mentioned/bitched about (as a disaffected Republican) was that Trump played the media like a fiddle during the republican primaries. No matter what he said or did, every monday morning there he was talking to frickin Stephanopolous in NYC.

At the very least, it will give us another opportunity to see a Baldwin Trump on SNL, which is probably worth choking back our proverbial vomit for one more debate.

You forget the fact that yes, that legislation was passed. But it was so unpopular, it allowed the rival party to gain power (Thomas Jefferson and co.) and it died out some two years later. Shit, as horrible as it was, it had a shorter legislative life than say the patriot act or our current drug war.

The bitter irony here is that Arlington literally gets no love from their current deals. Superbowl at Jerry world? Packers stay in Dallas and Steelers in fort wo. Game day at a great college football matchup? ESPN shoots from downtown fort worth. The citizens of Arlington are literally subsidizing dfws sporting needs…

Ron Paul touched on this cognitive dissonance back when he was running: It is considered to be “business friendly” by giving handouts to businesses and not letting the markets actually be free.

Make that a urinal/slot machine with a view of the rink. Pay for standing room only, pee while you watch!
