My excitement level was justified.

Can't win games when you can't score points.

Honestly, I almost forgot the game was even on. It just doesn’t have the same feel as the last couple of years. That bowl game against Ohio State? I was amped for that one—AT&T Stadium is only about 30 minutes from my house, so I actually got to go, and the buildup felt big. Last year’s game wasn’t quite that level, but it still felt meaningful because it capped off a 10-win season.

This year just feels… flat.

Part of it is the resume. We didn’t beat a single team with an above-.500 record. At this point, the only real excitement for me is the possibility that Mizzou can finally pull one off against a team with a winning record. That’s it.

Curious where everyone else is at. Are you fired up for this one, or are you feeling about the same as I am?

We went to Arrowhead for the first time last year. Traffic sucked getting in, and we had to wait an hour for an Uber to get out.

We went to Jerry's World on Thanksgiving to watch the Chiefs. AT&T Stadium is right outside of Downtown Arlington. We were able to park downtown and take a shuttle from a local bar to and from the stadium. I was able to drive right out with minimal traffic. Had we chosen to Uber, we could have walked a few blocks to Texas Live and waited out the crowd.

It was a much better experience than the Arrowhead one.

All have something in common other than multiple arrests.

Edgy :rolleyes:

Stuff like this is going to lead to Trump invoking the insurrection act and then it will be game over.

Trump won't do anything but complain about it.

Or maybe it’s the opposite: they went after him hard at first… and then quietly backed off.

You can argue Trump “won in court,” but the reality is that after years of investigations, raids, indictments, and nonstop media hysteria, nothing actually landed. No major consequences. No accountability for the people who pushed false narratives. No arrests tied to the things you listed. It all just… stalled.

And notice what has happened since then. His political enemies aren’t trying to destroy him anymore—they’re just blocking him from governing. That’s a very different posture.

What also raises eyebrows is how aligned he now seems with establishment power brokers he once claimed to oppose. Figures like Mark Levin and other AIPAC-aligned voices appear far more influential than before. This is also the first time Trump has fully embraced major donor money—something he explicitly rejected in 2015–2016 when he ran as an outsider.

Back in 2021-23, it genuinely felt like they’d never let him near the White House again. Then, suddenly, Democrats run a historically weak, last-minute candidate, almost guaranteeing his return. At the same time, Big Tech shifts: Zuckerberg, Musk, and social media platforms that once opposed him now lean his way. That doesn’t happen by accident.

This version of Trump feels different—more restrained, more managed, less chaotic. Like someone finally figured out how to put guardrails on him.

So maybe the question isn’t why they attacked him…
It’s why the attacks stopped—and what changed behind the scenes when they did.
