I'm loving watching Oregon wipe the field with Liberty

Fuck Libety U. Paper mill.
Rev. Moon financed when Jerry was bleeding money.
I have relatives who knew Falwell in high school. Lots of stories.

In my job I’m surrounded by Liberty people. I’ve met one (1) who is both good at their job and NOT a piously overbearing condescending self righteous asshole. One.

Thoughts and prayers didn’t do sh*t. Welcome to the big leagues.

My Mom was born in Louisiana. All of her family lives/lived there. Been going there all my life and lived in Baton Rouge for 25 years. Been to several games in Tiger Stadium and I'm a life long fan. Nothing like it!

My son was laughing at me while I was cussing and screaming at the TV. But, we pulled it out. All's well so far for the new year!

Haven’t been on a trip to Roanoke in a while. Liberty basically blocked out the sun on 460 with their expansion. They’ve had a fake ski slope for years.

I’ve been a die hard Duck fan since Pre! I loved that ass kicking just as a hard core Duck Football FANatic. Now I am gonna celebrate even harder, I forgot that Liberty is a Jebus Cult school.
And Bo beat my Ducks at Auburn for the only loss that year. Yes I thought the Liberty fans looked a little weird and plenty of em there.
Pulling for Washington now, to keep the Pack Twelve going, the only team to beat the Ducks this year. Twice by a field goal.
Plus when I see the Texas Fans all I see is Abbott and Cruz, and everything fucked about Texas right now. And damn glad Bama got whipped just because Tuberville is such a shit bag.
So far I’m on a role in 2024.
Go Ducks, thank you Bo.
Hoping Washington keeps my winning streak tonight.

..but Michigan/Washington could be a classic. Penix is as advertised. NFL caliber now. Fun to watch.
Tuberville coached Auburn, the arch-enemy of Bama. They hate him with the heat of a 1,000 white hot suns.

Was Auburn. Just hate the state of Alabama (politics) so all teams fall into my hate category.
Damn I squeezed by into the final second for Texas to be gone. I faired well with every game the first day of 2024.
I hope it’s a sign for the biggest contest on earth this November.
Most happy for the Ducks and my daughter”s school of education, Tennessee.
Now, “let’s go Biden”.

And same to you and yours! As a long suffering Miami Hurricanes fan I have to endure the tomahawk chop yearly. Makes you want to shove a pencil in your eye.
One of my dearest friends teaches at Oregon State. He claims it's heaven.

I can’t hate on Miami. They gave me Jimmy Johnson and Micheal Irving.
Tomahawk is bad but seeing the middle age white men in feathered head dresses chopping is sick.
Get em Taylor! Think she’s got more clout than Kid Rock and Ye! But, her Guy and his team, do the same chopping crap. So far I have not seen her chopping.
Ducks are my team but the Beavers have a fantastic Forest Management curriculum. Have met some faculty at National Society of American Forester's annual meetings. I can See why your friends love it there.
Cheers!

Daughter graduated Tennessee. We have a bone marrow deep hate for Gators. She started in 2008, the year they fired Fulmer. She never had the pleasure of a victory over Florida in her 4 years there.
And after the Kiffen fiasco, not a Central Florida fan either.
These transfer portals are gonna make it all very interesting. I can’t complain. Bo transferred from Auburn.

School loyalty/student education is now a quaint afterthought. Money won. Player compensation is long overdue. I don't know how that's supposed to happen, but this wild West shit show needs to be reevaluated. Buying 5-star players is the new game. Recruiting is check writing. Bowl games are injury risks instead of rewards for a season well played. Kinda sad, actually.

It’s sad when a player is paid huge cash to win games, and a fan wants, (needs) to pay huge Bowl game prices for tickets, lodging and travel to see their team compete in a hard earned Bowl Appearance, to only have third stringers on be field.
I have no solution. Money corrupts everything.
I quit going to games after my daughter graduated.
Tired of leaving or even attending games just to get angry at opposing fans with no class. Bama was worst, worse than Gators. May as well be a Cowboy fan in Philly.
Fun talking ball with ya. Have a great year.
