WSU vs SDSU game thread

I've been calling them The Sea-Losers for the past 30 years. True. Except for the two Superbowl years, they are always AVERAGE, and Mediocre.

I am a closet Sea-Loser. Plus, I'm not an NFL guy.
Except it isn't true. With Holmgren era and the Carroll era, they have been one of the better teams in the NFC for a long time. They have also made the Superbowl three times in the last 30 years.

OT- Oops, voter fraud is underway

You’re incorrect….at least in Washington. You do not have to prove citizenship, you just have to be willing to sign a statement that says you’re eligible to vote. There’s a warning that you could be imprisoned for lying, but show me when the last time that happened was.

Washington has also created the situation where undocumented/illegal migrants can get a drivers license…and everyone who gets a license is asked if they want to register to vote. No need to prove anything more than residency, which you can do with an electric bill. Some of those migrants probably can’t read what they’re signing anyway.

So, yes - there are absolutely illegal aliens registered to vote in this state. How many? No idea. But this is exactly the sort of thing that voter ID should address - and I’d be 100% on board with a process that made people prove that they’re a citizen when they register to vote. That should happen before the election, not at the polling place.
Well that is f-ed up then. I stand corrected. Mark it on your calendars, as it is a rare occurrence. Like Hailey's comet. :)

No that link (which I read in its entirety) doesn't help at all. Contrary to the opinion of some on this board, I am fully capable of reading and understanding the English language. California and Vermont allow non-citizens to vote in school board elections (which I do not agree with). Not sure how this relates to Federal elections. And you do have to prove you are a US citizen when you register to vote.

But I'm gonna follow Flat's wisdom and bow out of this cluster**** of a thread. I do wonder why you want to move out of Idaho. Do you exceed the permissible number of teeth as prescribed in Idaho's constitution? And I quote:

"No person who, upon reaching adulthood, shall be allowed to have 70% or more of their natural teeth and be a resident of Idaho". Section 17.a(2) :)

Dickert was literally smiling at John when he said that. There is a photo from Cougfan during that exchange and he’s laughing. Seems like they were joking around. Then Dickert gets some injury news from Tingstad.
Dickert was certainly not smiling at Mateer on the play where he slide and just barely got the first down after the review and the dramatic measurement.

It was a good effort in the comeback, but I've lost faith in Arbuckle overall. I don't know if it's him or Dickert making aggressive calls when they don't make sense....and then being predictable at other times, but it's frustrating to see the coaches make bad decisions that keep games closer than they should be. And if I can guess that a QB run is coming 3/4 of the time.....coaches that are paid to recognize that shit are definitely keying in on it.

Depending on how this season finishes out, I think that there should be some real soul searching in the OC department. Arbuckle obviously has some good moments but this team feels like it's underperforming on offense overall.

Of course, defensively, I don't even know what to say. We can't seem to play defense at all until we are sitting there with our feet on the goal line and then we suddenly have a Top 25 defense. It's frickin' bonkers.

We should still finish 11-1 and no matter the competition, that's still great....but this game should stop the CFP talk. My hope is that we end up #10 after a nice non-CFP bowl win....even if I know that we don't really have a Top 10 team.
Pretty much what I said/feel in the other thread. This team will get destroyed in a playoff scenario - who wants to see that? But Im just a nega Coug wishing failure on the team...

Stretch....when I read your stuff I envision someone tying themselves up in a pretzel. When the President says "cmon guys, all I need you to do is find 11,780 votes", sure doesn't sound like a guy making a call to do a fourth audit. They told him he lost and there was no fraud that would change the outcome.

But that isn't my question. My question is, what if what has said he does he follows through and it isn't just "campaign rhetoric". Are you ok with him sending in the military against protestors who are peacefully protesting? What happens if he fires Jack Smith. Doesn't Jack Smith work for our judiscal system and doing his job? What if he goes after his politically enemies, like Smith and Pelosi. What did they do outside their jobs?

What if he goes after Mark Millie and John Kelley for voicing their opinion? Are you ok with that, and if not what will you do?

Last question, when was the last time a democratically elected dictator like Victor O of Hungary just step down and not corrupt the election process?
Jack Smith doesn’t work for the judicial system. He’s an assistant US Attorney. Not a judge. He’s part of the executive branch.

But I’ll tell you what might happen if Trump fires him- You’ll be outraged because Rachel Maddow and Joe Scarborough tell you to be outraged. You might even be so outraged that you support another impeachment that will stall anything and everything Trump wants to get through Congress for like a year while Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff get their sound bites on the Sunday shows. Because that’s what is important of course. Culture is wars and outrage. Then the senate will acquit him again and half of Trump’s term will be over with and the winners will be gridlock.

Or maybe Trump will just pardon himself and then you can be outraged over that.

Weekly Traitor update

With performance like that the Big Boys might have voted us out of being a Power 5 conference even if all 10 of those teams had stayed in the PAC! Sheesh! Halfway through the conference seasons and only 1 team is above 9th place in their new homes. Pathetic!

Well....Oregon and CU are 1st and 3rd respectively....but yeah, the other eight teams have been an embarrassment. And I wish that CU was doing their part to suck as well.

WSU vs SDSU game thread

Hard to make out, but Mateer said something about “yelling at my ass.”
After the exchange Dickert said "who?", then started talking to the guy in the suit. Kinda looks to me like someone else was yelling at Mateer's ass, not Dickert.

And to the Mateer slide thing - he wasn't sliding at all IMHO. The refs gave him a BS spot on that one.
