2024, 23 Allies


Norway just refused to re fuel our warships. Allies! What a joke. Get real pal. Those Europeans don’t give a rats arse about you.
Just sent email to the White House stating my desire for the US to withdraw from NATO. It’s a Cold War relic that the Europeans use to keep their defense spending low. I don’t want my Grandkids lives at risk for Europeans. Putin is a real POs but a POS with nukes. America is broke. We MIST get our house in order.

No.

They’ve already given money.

If they commit ground troops or declare war we have to exit immediately.


I firmly believe our war planners are gaming for an all out with China sometime down the road. We need to cut Europe loose. Also, we need to let Taiwan know it needs to reconcile with China.

All the John Wayne movies we watched as kids are irrelevant in today’s world of nuclear weapons. Let’s tune our military machine to protect our VITAL interests, not Europe or Taiwans

If Europe wants to go against Russia alone so be it. Also, Trump needs to PRIVATELY let Putin and Russia know that threatening the USA will not be tolerated.

We are drowning in debt. We have the swamp fighting the MAGA movement. 50% of the voters in America are against us. People”s refrigerators have less quality food because of inflation and stagnant real wage increases. Our children are being taught crap that will have no bearing on their future earning ability. We have become a godless nation under the liberal, progressive administrations of Clinton, OBama, Biden and it will take several generations to recover.

So, I say let Europe take care of Ukraine. Let America take care of America.

As an old Marine, if the Russians ever frick with me directly, I’ll frick them up.

MAGA!
You are wrong. DjT is attempting to save us from nuclear holocaust. Are you really willing to take sides with a comedian who would push Russia to nuclear conflict. I don’t like Putin or the government but time for peace and letting the bigger dog (Russia) win and put his nukes back to bed. Ukrainians will still have a country.
I’m an old pasty white guy who actually enjoys some rap music. That was absolutely horrendous for a Super Bowl. Can you imagine your 8 year old watching and wondering why he’s grabbing his crotch? Rap by itself is not Super Bowl level entertainment imho. Give me Dione Warwick, Mick Jagger, Beyonce level entertainment imho.
My boy, and I believe your use of the four letter word in your message, decidedly proves you are a student or very insecure Buckeye fan.

Welcome to the rant. We have many Buckeye posters so let me make you feel welcome.

Congratulations of a fine season. The Buckeyes are without doubt the best team for the 2024 season. No one on this board will argue that except maybe a Georgia fan.

No need to come on this board and brag, huff and puff your chest. We don’t hate you.

I know many Buckeyes fans and they are pure class. Try and act like them.
:cheers:
Congrats to the Buckeyes. Really good team.
So tired of ND getting preferred treatment.

Big 10 , SEC, ACC, Big 12 need own playoff with natty being Jan 1st . If ND not part of these four, then play Navy or Army or Whoever for Natty. F ND Hope Buckeyes lay 60 on these imposters

10 conference games and no championship or 3-5 format for scheduling. Nothing else will work


If we went 10 conference games, then we’d need our own SEC playoff and crown the SEC champ the National Champion as well. I’m down with this.

What’s wrong with the conferences all claiming they’re the champ? It’s how it used to be. Until we go to an NFL style system ( which I don’t want), we’re never going to truly know who the true champion would be.

On the other hand, here’s my stab at a playoff

Top four teams of each conference play the weekend traditionally reserved for conference championship games. Around de6 or so. Winners play two weeks later for championship games. Dec 20 or so.

Four conferences involved. SEC,B10,ACC,BIG 12

New Year’s Day play Two natty semis .

Around Jan 10 play Natty.

Won’t need selection committee

These four conferences should add teams not from these conferences like a ND etc if they want in.

If ND doesn’t want to play, let them pound sand

Why do posters on here refuse to realize conference membership is about money and what a new team brings to the table and not just "dominence."

Adding major teams already in your TV markets just dilutes the earnings of the members


100% correct. It’s all about money. My Four schools have huge fan bases. Equates to bigger deals with networks etc of which i personally don’t give a flip cause it doesn’t impact me. It would mean more compelling games therefore more money. :cheers:
True, but I’d say all fan bases have changed as well. What football needs to worry about is soccer. I go to my grandsons soccer games and there’s 10 fields full of 3-5 year olds playing soccer. None of his friends throw a football.just saying lookout 50 years down the road.
Yea. You know me. Smoked quite a bit back in the sixties :nana:
Miami is more SEC than I think you realize. I remember partying with Miami fan in Nola for the ‘93 Natty game. They were full of passion and had a huge following. I’d be good with them. But, I respect your view.
1. Additions of Texas and OU were great additions. They fit into the SEC culture perfectly.
2. Parity- some great games and upsets. Don’t see this changing.
3. Real happy for Florida. Glad Napier figured it out.
4. The conference needs to stay at 8 games
5. Liked the 3 game “SEC on ABC” setup. Had compelling games on all day and no ESPN to watch.
6. Need to hire SEC refs full time and look at how penalties are called and why. Game has become too much about refs. Don’t like
7. Maybe time for Sankey to retire. Not a fan of this 12 team format which he spearheaded. I’ll be watching to see if he ups his game and gets the format and selecting process better.
8. Oklahoma will be a force to be reckoned with down the road.
9. I want Lane Kiffin at Alabama
10. Let’s move the SEC championship around the footprint. Tired of Atlanta.
11. Let’s add FSU, Miami, Clemson and Virginia Tech.
12. SEC and Big 10 need more seasonal games.
Finally, until ND joins a conference, let’s just all pitch in and buy them a participation trophy but they should not be included in a playoff playing one less game.

Looking forward already to next year.
RTR and SEC SEC SEC :cheers:
Agree. Sark had 4 running plays to get 3 yards. Does refrigerator Perry ring a bell? Sarks a dumb arse.
