This is the rhyme I was taught as a kid to discern what was/was not a coral snake:
“Red on black, venom lack. Red on yellow, kill a fellow.”

Sexton is gonna win a lot of races this year…
If history is any indicator Sexton is going to look like he can win a lot of races this year,……but instead he will crash on the regular. Don’t get me wrong, Sexton seems like a good guy and is super fast, but he always throws away races with dumb mistakes. I will bet you a beer that Sexton will not win back-to-back races this year, he is just not consistent.

Well, Sexton did his crashing in the heat race, very clean main event win for Chase.
Podium for Eli is a good outcome.
Hunter looks like he could be a real threat to win the championship….

I would love to see Tomac win it all this year. I want to see a few more races before I get my hopes up for Eli.

I agree he has speed but he cannot stay off the ground. He may win a few races, but I would bet he crashes more often than he wins.

I agree with a lot of what you wrote in this post; however this quote is not accurate. Many of us AU fans were onto his shtick by then, and were tired of it.

Kid doesn’t get that it’s coming for him
Saw an interview with Max Anstie after the race, he was clearly holding back what he really thought, but he kept saying, “I knew what was coming, and I expected it, but when he hit the brake and slid into me….” Then he said, “I will just keep getting good starts and when he comes up on me we will see what happens next time…”

Sexton was crazy fast tonight, but when will he stop shooting himself in the foot with dumb mistakes?

Deegan, what an A$$! He went up and purposely clipped Anstie’s front wheel to put him down.

Have you listened to Bari Weiss talk about Israel or its Middle East neighbors? There is no balance there.

Yeah, it would be great if Deegan got a beef going with Anderson, would be so much fun to watch.
Speaking of Jason Anderson, that World Supercross race he had with Joey Savatgy a few weeks ago was wild! If you have not seen it you should look it up on YouTube. They passed back and forth and got more and more aggressive, great racing and heavy banging….

Deegan is fast, but he is reckless and inconsistent. He is head and shoulders above the other 250 west riders in terms of speed on the track.However he has earned a reputation as a dirty rider, anyone that watched him try to put takeout moves on Jo Shimoda last year would objectively state that Deegan will crash opponents in order to win races.
I am guessing your question is aimed at the 450 class, and I have not seen info from Yamaha definitely stating that Deegan will be riding 450s when he does not have a 250 west race….
If he does ride 450s and uses his “aggressive” tactics on experienced 450 riders like Anderson, Tomac, Webb, etc….then one of those riders will plant him in the track.

re: Convince me a Players Union and CBA isn't coming to college football?
Posted by FlyDownTheField83 on 1/7/26 at 6:30 pm to Lsuhoohoo
No way there is CBA put together to “fix” the current state of college football. You would have to have a disaffected group of employees that are willing to band together and go through an arduous process to put a union in place in an environment that has many opponents to that unionization.
The players would have to be that disaffected group, and currently there are many selfish players and agents pulling in different directions. There are some players making a lot of money now that do not want things to change, there are other players that are happy with getting just a small amount of money now, and the employment life span of these employees is very short (approximately 4 years) so keeping this group organized and focused on unionization for an uncertain result is not going to happen.
Furthermore there are many opponents to unionization of the players because that would be a further threat/complication related to their income that is in the billions of dollars: TV networks, universities, athletic departments, coaches, etc…
Finally, it is laughable to me based on my experience in this area that people think a CBA and a union would “solve” the problems in college football. Unions main aim is to promote income for the union, and a secondary aim is to get things (mainly money) for their members. Unions promote disharmony, mistrust and acrimony so that they can use these as leverage to negotiate more money for Unions/members.
If by some miracle there was a significant union put in place for some significant amount of college football players , then mark my words, some games or entire seasons would be cancelled due to strikes, unhappy employees, etc…. (But really to extort more money from universities). IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?
If you want college football games cancelled then keep talking up a CBA as a “solution”.

Odds that I saw posted on one betting site:
Sexton +200
Roczen +300
Tomac +450
H Lawrence +600
Webb +1200
These look off to me, Tomac beat Roczen head to head in Vancouver a few weeks ago on his new ride with KTM, Webb is the defending champ and he clearly got in Sexton’s head last year,…..

Funny, I laughed.
However, I actually think DeBoer is a decent coach and I think he has handled a tough situation pretty well.

Sorry to disappoint you, I was pointing out the terrible officiating in the CFP game between Ole Miss and Georgia.
I think it was the SEC office that fired the crew that officiated the Auburn Georgia game; so you can talk to them about “melting”.
I will also offer my congratulations to Georgia and its fans on a great season.

In a thread to celebrate a great college football game we have butt hurt Georgia fans looking for someone to complain about….
PS - I do not blame you, that would be a tough game to lose, Georgia players showed a lot of heart as well.

I do not believe they will do anything to help the average American,….ever.
It is just a part of the Weiss takeover of CBS so they can pitch more pro-Israel dishonesty and then claim it is part of this change to “more truthful” reporting.
Just a shift in what propaganda they are going to put out, still lies and liars.
