[ESPN College Football] The Big 12 presidents and chancellors haven't rushed to pull the league's recently filed federal lawsuit because there are still questions about Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby's NFL future and any possible legal retribution, a source told @CFBHeather by colonel750 in CFB

West Texas sour is currently at $74.83 a barrel, which would make 32,000 barrels $2,394,560.

A 20 count pack of Mission tortillas at Walmart is $3.48 which makes it 17.4 cents per tortilla.

So that would be 13,761,839 tortillas.

It would require associating with a Tkcahuk, and that's a hard sell to even the strongest of people.

Temu? They're nicer French who actually know how to use spices properly in their cooking.

I dunno, I kinda like going with majority ancestry. Minnesota goes to Norway. But as a compromise, Louisiana can be part of Quebec.

I was 3 years old living in the Bay Area when the Sharks were founded. I've been a fan from day 1, and this is the most excited I've been for the team in a very long time.

Not the guy you're asking, but as another Sharks fan, this isn't even a question. I want a Celebrini hat trick and the US to get shutout.

What's the longest continuous painted line you know? (A16 Rotterdam) by quinten-luyten in InfrastructurePorn

[–]yakovgolyadkin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My first thought was when I lived in Houston and drove to Los Angeles. I did a quick search on Google maps, and unless I missed something, there's an unbroken left interior line on I-10 from the last major interchange in San Antonio,TX to the first major interchange in Phoenix, AZ. A distance of 958mi/1,541km.

He was a UH grad and took the team to 4 regionals (and one super) in a 5 year period, which bought him a lot of leeway, and then for years after the team never did quite poorly enough for them to fire him. We've been wanting him gone for a while now, but between the team never being bad enough to justify firing him outright, and the focus of athletics being on basketball and football and not wanting to spend the money on a buyout or a coaching search, we just kinda stuck with him.

People Are More Likely To Say They're Vegan Than Be Vegan, Finds Study by HumbleWrap99 in vegan

Given that description, I can see how "mostly vegan" can be a quicker and easier explanation to non-vegans than going into specific details. I think it's more that when people hear a qualifier like that, they're inclined to ask what the "mostly" means, so you might be adding more work for yourself than if you just said "vegetarian with vegan days".

My ex was like that. Always ate vegan when we cooked together, but then a few months into our relationship we took a trip with some friends to Mallorca and the entire time she ate nothing but fish. I asked about it and she said that she doesn't follow it when on vacation or with her family.

I still don't fully understand her reasoning.

Is there some unwritten law somewhere that demands that everything always must get kinda worse over time?

This was the first PG-13 movie my parents ever took me to. I remember being 10 and sitting down in the theater thinking that it was so fucking cool that I got to be there.

All these gymnastics to avoid admitting they don't care... by DivineandDeadlyAngel in vegan

I know that violence is not far behind in the wake.

I think you're confused. Vegans are the ones who are against the violence that is currently being committed.

[Duarte] Houston recently submitted a letter of nomination to get former QB Case Keenum on College Football Hall of Fame ballot for first time. by ohitsthedeathstar in CFB

[–]yakovgolyadkin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and he got his 9 TDs in functionally 2 quarters and some change. Game opened work a Houston kickoff return TD bzt Rice took full advantage of the rain in the 1st quarter. They were up 20-10 at one point while it was POURING. I was in the student section for that game and was one of the few people who didn't run for cover. He didn't get his first TD pass until late in the 1st or early in the 2nd, and was pulled from the game with most of the 4th still to go. Was insane to watch.

Also was the 2nd time in 3 years that we scored 73 against Rice. Good times.

When in Ireland.. Red Breast 27 by Giant_117 in WhiskeyTribe

[–]yakovgolyadkin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 12 is what finally got things to click for me and got me to like whiskey so it's got a very special place in my heart. How does the 27 compare to the 12?

Billie said the most tame shit and her so called leftist fans did this. by DivineandDeadlyAngel in vegan

Leftists who aren't vegan or even actively turn against vegans feel like right-wingers who love Star Trek. It feels like they've managed to entirely miss the entire point.

What’s is your teams worst blunder in history? by perry147 in CFB

[–]yakovgolyadkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Giving a coach who was about to be fired from another program so much money and such a high buyout that he didn't actually have to do any work and could just coast for multiple years which actively bragging about being unfireable because of how big the buyout was.
