Are you talking about taking away scholarships from kids who don't perform well? It happens with academic scholarships all of the time. If a kid gets a 1.0 GPA, he loses his scholarship. 

Yes, and if the ballplayers don't perform in the classroom, they will be gone. No one with the least bit of integrity cuts a substantial percentage of the team, nor should the people they work for allow it.

I think that they will lose several games, but he has done a good job of taking over a 1 win team team and making them at least an average to abover average team in a very short period of time.

Agree, but I'm not sure how much I care for the method to accomplish it.

After this performance, perhaps the talking heads proclaiming the Buffs great will get back to the reality that they're a lock to lose 4 or 5 games, perhaps more.

Don't mind the taste but I have a texture issue with it. Same for avocado.

I don't know how the Deion era will go, but I've seen no evidence that it can't succeed.

That said, it's funny how many "experts" are declaring it a success after 60 minutes of football. Colorado is a mortal lock to lose 4 or 5 games.

Win on the road by 27 and drop spots in the polls. 

Thanks for confirming what we already know.

FSU flexing their muscles

#8 FSU 38

#5 LSU 17

7:00 remaining 


FSU has outscored them 31-3 the last 2 quarters

Having a rooting preference for this game is like choosing between Hitler and the Ayatollah, a total lesser of 2 evils.

And this wouldn't even be necessary if the Republicans didn't pass the heartbeat bill. And they know forcing it to 60% is the only chance they have of keeping it a law. Otherwise this wouldn't have even been an issue. It's the issue of abortion because they made it so.

I would be "ok" with it being on the ballot even if the main reason WAS abortion, as long as they did it ethically "right". November election, don't throw in the all 88 county BS, etc.


I just can't get the "we'll put it on a special August election" BS. I vote no on every school levy that tries to get forced down a "special election" as well, put it on a normal primary or a general election. If the levy is the ONLY reason I have to go to the polls that day, I am voting no basically every time.

60% of votes is as bipartisan as it gets.

Saying it's only an issue because of abortion is kind of the pot calling the kettle black, no?  You care about it mainly, it seems, because you want abortion to be legal and know it won't get 60% of the vote.  Which is a very convenient position to hold, until the next time when it's something you oppose.

And this wouldn't even be necessary if the Republicans didn't pass the heartbeat bill. And they know forcing it to 60% is the only chance they have of keeping it a law. Otherwise this wouldn't have even been an issue. It's the issue of abortion because they made it so.

Or do you disagree that a CONSTITUTIONAL amendment should require more than a simple majority to enact?

Having read every amendment to the Ohio constitution, and finding nothing remotely controversial, I'd say at best, it's a solution in search of a problem, at worst, a highly partisan POS.

Where does it rank now? 


Fletch moving out would drop it a few spots.

That goes both ways, though.  Again, simple majority rules/laws are rarely good legislation.


I agree with this 1000%. However, at this point I'm far more concerned with the elephants in the room that this election is really all about, 1) abortion, and 2) the paranoia that Tranny Bonaduce is recruiting your babies. It's a No from me for that reason.

Surprised a simple majority is all that's been required since 1912.  IMO, a simple majority can be fickle and/or under-informed.

I honestly don't understand why that's such a difficult concept for some people.  People think the opposing party is just there to obstruct, but are we really to believe you can't get 5-10% from the other side if it's actually a good idea?  

And I do realize, in today's climate, that the party can put tremendous pressure on those 5-10% to fall in line.  But we shouldn't lower the standard just because the parties can't [or won't] work together.

Yeah.. I don't need a fringe minority group dictating everyone else's life. Minority rules isn't how I wanna live. They were fine with how things were until their electors snuck in abortion bills... now they want it changed so everyone has to live with their beliefs... they can fuck right off lol.
