Don’t sleep on Peacemaker. It’s such a good show.

There's a Marquette fan with a small account on the other site that posted Marquette won easily and then I saw Matt H. may or may not have subtly suggested Mizzou won

It’s easy to make fun of, but watching the president of the United States ask Andy Ngo and Jack Posibiec who the bad guys are so that they can be prosecuted for domestic terrorism is truly fucking terrifying. We have fallen a long way already.

Trump: "I also did a cognitive exam. Which is always very risky because if I didn't do well, you'd be the first to be blaring it and I had a perfect score. And one of the doctors said he's almost never seen a perfect score. I had a perfect score. That made me well good ... not the easiest test."

Every time Trump says this someone points out the test he has to do, and this time it's my turn. It's pretty weird he keeps talking about passing it, right?

Despite my bias of liking it since they are playing here, I'm not stressed about opening on the road.

With Mark and Ant they should dominate these non con cupcakes and if they don't we have bigger issues than a first game road game

It's part of the home and home, which started last year. I forget, but it might even be a 2 for 1 series.

And Gates loves playing HBCUs and/or teams w/ Black coaches in the noncon, so it makes sense from those angles
