QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 11:30 PM) Although the Aggies Rivals site says A&M to the SEC. If you haven't figured it out yet, this is a classic case of sources using and abusing a bunch of writers hoping to be "breaking". Chip Brown has been wrong about 60% of the time so far. And a bunch of posts in here set as definitive were anything but. They are listening to anyone and reporting everything.

Over .500 and within 5 games by the end of the month!
of course, this is what I want. To push up to around .500 and float around there being vaguely competitive only to lose the division by 8-10 games but be able to say we had another winning record.

I think what's more remarkable is that we could hold our country responsible for our actions and want them not to make stupid rhetorical flourishes that hinder our interests abroad.

Arizona requires you to carry your papers
states aren't allowed to decide who is a citizen of the country. One of the things the constitution does is decide who is in charge of what, it's an actual existing document with words, and people can read it! It's not just some magical document you can point to whenever you want to act like you are a righteous patriot.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 11, 2010 -> 08:42 PM) No, I got his point, I just don't agree. Like I said, I agree that the system is messed up and should be better. That doesn't mean I sympathize with someone that complains about life being hard because they chose to do something illegal. This isn't minor traffic law we're talking about. They've illegally entered our country, utilized our services without paying a dime, and get the benefit of reproducing so that their kids can be citizens. And they're complaining that this law now means they'll be targeted and inconvenienced? Boo-hoo. the following is heavyhanded, but drives home the core of the point: Jenksismyb**** 1963: "Yeah, okay, I understand that some people may feel blacks should be able to enter the same areas as whites, but this Martin Luther King Jr guy broke the law! Where is the outrage over that?"

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 11, 2010 -> 07:11 PM) Then what's the point of having laws? Christ. Next time someone robs a bank and gives the excuse that he's going through a rough time i guess we should just forgive him and feel bad for him. Nevermind that 99% of the rest of the country gives a damn and follows laws. Am I in law enforcement? Am I willfully ignoring a bunch of illegal immigrants under my nose I have a duty to send back? No. We are talking about you not understanding how I could not care about why, even if I'm pro-immigration, I am not upset that these people are breaking the law. It's because I think we have bad policy that is making lives of current citizens, and potential productive citizens, and their future productive kids, harder than it should be.

The environment thread
QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 11, 2010 -> 12:44 AM) Show me where I've supported BP and said they weren't wrong. But, that's okay... keep protecting the guy who has to go to professors and other acedemia to figure out who's ass to kick. Show me to where that would've ever come up? All you've done for 3 weeks is attack any criticism directed towards BP and tried to fling it elsewhere. This is a company that has poisoned lake michigan, and now ruined the gulf and will cost those states sooooo much money in tourism and fishing money. But they are great. BEcause they made a lot of money, they must be right.

GMAFB jenks, you are SHOCKED that we are sympathetic to these people even though they broke a law? Think of other laws that people have broken that you are still sympathetic to. If I am against the policy, why wouldn't I show the poor affects of that policy as a reason why it's a stupid approach. No, I don't really care that they are breaking a law.

would be awful for football, Mizzou would have to go through cincy and kansas...I mean...we'd easily be top 1-2 in that conference. I guess it'd be easier to get a bcs. Oh well.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 11, 2010 -> 12:50 AM) 12 team football, 20 team basketball conference. Not just Kansas, but Kansas State, Mizzou and ISU have also spent time in the Top 10 in the last decade. that would suck. The traveling would be absurd.

Official 2010-2011 NCAA Football Thread
he's saying academics didn't matter if nebraska was accepted. I'd, of course, make the argument that the education difference between all these schools is very low, so what you are asking is what schools specifically and arbitrarily raise standards and prices to price out poorer or less academically qualified students, and then USN and WR will bow down, and say "how many flat screens do you have? 4500! My God! You are an AMAZING school!"

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 09:35 PM) Sorry, to be clear, I meant that those 4 schools (ISU, Bay, CU, UT) were the ones OF THE BIG 12 that were strongest academically. Saw an article today with a complex point formula used in the academic community, I think it was done for AAU schools only, and those schools I mentioned were all basically in the middle of the Big 10 pack. Not Northwestern by any stretch though. Your line about the football stadium is key - that's the difference maker here. thank you. Using US News and World Report is garbage.

Do you have a memory for anything beside football, and if even football, does your memory merely extend to like the past 4 years?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 05:42 PM) Good for the Big 10. Yeah, well I went to that retarded missouri school. It should be noted that Missouri actually keeps it's standards low because it is a state school and tries to be attainable for its residents. And Missouri actually has good state schools beside mizzou.

Most of us don't have the stones to do what they do, and have no idea what they face or deal with on a daily basis. well, apparently we do have the stones, they just have the guns.
