Surprised Will Johnson has fallen so much. Great played at Michigan. Was there some rumor about his injury or something?

California politicians caused this, frankly. Florida has more forest area and hardly has any wildfires. It’s because they maintain their forests and have controlled burns annually. California stopped controlled burns around the 80s due to environmental concerns. Now every fire they have gets out of hand.
This isn’t true. I live in the Santa Cruz Mountains and Cal Fire is constantly doing controlled burns. The issue is that it no longer rains in Southern California. The narrative that the California is mismanaging everything is just not true in this case. Montana and Idaho have had major fires recently - are they mismanaging their forests?

WTF does that have to do with anything? Please name rappers better than him endorsing Trump.
You people that bring politics into every conversation are the fricking worst.

Same with wildfires
quote:
Using data from researchers at the University of Maryland, recently updated to cover the years 2001 to 2023, we calculated that the area burned by forest fires increased by about 5.4% per year over that time period. Forest fires now result in nearly 6 million more hectares of tree cover loss per year than they did in 2001 — an area roughly the size of Croatia.
quote:
Fire is also making up a larger share of global tree cover loss compared to other drivers like mining and forestry. While fires only accounted for about 20% of all tree cover loss in 2001, they now account for roughly 33%.

$200,000,000 guaranteed?????? No player is worth the money these owners are paying….
Being that revenues continue to increase exponentially, you’d prefer the owners (in this case Shahid Khan) just pocket the money? Why shouldn’t the players that bring eyeballs to the game be getting big contracts?

For the LSU fans in here, do you think LSU football would have been better with a good defense this year, or would it not have mattered?
Yup, JJ McCarthy clearly a better QB than Daniels. He made the playoffs twice and won a Natty while Daniels never won shite. Clearly if JJ were on LSU, they would have dominated this year.

Is this supposed to imply that the COVID vaccine causes colon cancer now too?
Particularly when the colon cancer article says the trend over the last 30 years has been for a greater percentage of colon cancer patients to be younger. Not sure we can blame a 30 year trend on a 3 year old vaccine.

I also think Michigan's defense is really overrated because of who they play and the lack of elite offensive players in the Big 10.
True for most Big 10 teams but OSU has as much offensive talent as anyone in the SEC. Last year, I seem to remember them scoring 41 against Georgia after they only put up 23 on Michigan.

Posted by ChiSaint on 11/27/23 at 11:59 am
But isn’t all of your conference records above just transitive properties? If we are considering Bama / Texas, given equal records and conference titles, isn’t the only thing that should matter is the head to head? Who cares about what happened between the #4 Big 12 team vs the #6 SEC team (or equivalent)?

I hate Bama as much anybody, but I'm not going to pretend that a Bama team (who would just be coming off of a win against UGA) would be a decent sized favorite over Texas.
Wasn’t Bama favored by a decent bit in the matchup earlier this season? Results should matter - not who we think would win a matchup but who actually won. Bama was favored big over Auburn and needed a miracle.
re: Analysis of Non-Conference P5 Games

I know it’s not a P5 matchup but Auburn losing 31-10 to New Mexico State should really be taken into account.
All those white knighting for Bama over Texas should think about the fact that Bama was a miracle play away from losing to a team that lost by 3 touchdowns to the #2 team in Conference USA.

Please point to the average games other than BGU. He has a 78% completion %. He has barely played in the fourth quarter at all this year. If he beats PSU and OSU with good performances, I’d be shocked if he doesn’t get it.

What pro athletes are getting paid is ridiculous. Generations of families by the millions won’t make in their lifetimes what most of these athletes make in one year.
But the NFL continues to make more and more money. Where should it go? You prefer the billionaire owners get it instead of the millionaire athletes?
