BREYER: Actually, Antonin, you got it backwards. See, a power bottom is actually generating all the dissents by doing most of the work.

SCALIA: Stephen, I've heard that speed has something to do with it.

I could have sworn the fumble/not fumble because of forward progress against Iowa State was a Thursday game?

You appear to be correct. This should be a positive to the game

Much like with everything else in life, the Euros seem to have more sense on how to do things in a fun atmosphere without sucking the soul out of the event.

To be fair, last week's game was amazing. I'll never by default pick the NFL over college ball but I like watching good football period.

It's convenient when the Bengals play on Thursday because I can get over it by the time the Vols gently caress up.

Hopefully Herman is the kind of coach and this is the kind of team that can be motivated to play better after a tough but encouraging loss. Not sink into a death spiral like the last few years!

My Amazon Fire TV told me this morning that I could stream the Thursday night game straight from the home screen. Didn't need cable or whatever to do it.

Try living in a city full of them. I'm supposed to meet a buddy for dinner tonight. The first place we picked was a Bears bar (they're all bears bars) and the second was a Green Bay bar.

I don't mind having the game on at the bar but I don't wanna be stuck in the middle of all that.

e: that's to say that I don't mind going to a sports bar with the game on but normally when a bar is designated a team bar they have raffles and won't put anything but that specific game on.

I generally like Bears fans as long as there isn't also a Cubs game on but yeah man don't let yourself get surrounded by packers fans, that's the worst. Plus you can't miss that hot Ames action.

Maybe he runs because he doesn't want to be around that athletic department as it sinks, but I really doubt they'll move on from him barring his own scandal.

Run? What? Bobby Petrino is LOYAL! He would never just up and leave a head coaching gig for a more lucrative position! Especially not in the middle of a season.
Also LOL if you don't think 8->4 million isn't significant enough to change the marketability equation.

If you watched the game, it shouldn't have been needed. Duke had a bunch of bullshit PI calls given to them the drive before, and then given a touchdown when the ball didn't cross the plane. The refs were garbage for both teams.
