Dr. Evil asked for one simple thing. Last night in front of 100,000+ fans at Neyland Stadium, we delivered and sent two sharks, armed with functional laser beams, swimming across the 50-yard line.

I’ll never forgive Zac Alley for costing us what could’ve been a 10 or 11 win season and a very possible Heisman for Hawkins.

Abdul El-Sayed proudly introduces himself as Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed, America’s first Muslim senator, and then starts speaking in Arabic.
Americans better brace themselves. The communist and Islamic takeover has officially begun. They’re going to get exactly what they just asked for.

The guy who kept Shaq and Charles Barkley in line on TV for 37 years used to spend his mornings shaving and dressing his son, who could barely move and breathed through a ventilator. Then he'd go to work and laugh with those guys all night like nothing was going on.
Tonight Ernie Johnson said this season will be his last, and Barkley tried to thank him on air and couldn't get the words out.
I don't think most people watching that clip know what Ernie was carrying all those years.
He and his wife Cheryl adopted Michael from an orphanage outside Bucharest in 1991, when he was 3. He had Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and doctors didn't think he'd make it to his 20s. He lived to 33. When Ernie was home, getting Michael ready in the morning could take an hour and a half, and Ernie did the showering and shaving and dressing himself.
In 2006 he told viewers he had non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and by the end of October he was back at the desk while he was still going through chemo.
When Michael died in 2021, Ernie wasn't on the show that week, and Shaq, Kenny and Chuck spent about six minutes trying to hold it together while they talked about a kid most of America never met.
Then last year he had heart bypass surgery, and this summer he turned 70.
Ernie's dad pitched in the big leagues and then called Braves games for decades, and he gave his son a rule Ernie's talked about forever: if somebody spikes you at second base, never rub.
If you've ever wondered why nobody's been able to copy Inside, that rule is a big part of it. Barkley could say the dumbest thing imaginable, Shaq could fall out of his chair, Kenny could go running to the big board, and Ernie would just pick it up and bring it back to basketball with that yellow legal pad. Those three got to be chaos because the guy in the middle never made his own stuff the show.
He still calls hosting a "get-to job," and he was calling it that the same year he buried his son.
So when Charles Barkley, who's roasted pretty much everybody alive on live TV, can't finish a sentence to the man, that's why.
Charles Barkley and the guys give Ernie Johnson his flowers. This is a must watch.

I have a foreigner from Venezuela (probably 35 years old) who bought the 10 acre field next to mine (for $240,000)
He started a concrete company and requests payment in cash. His wife started a tax service and he is her “customer”.
He speaks very little English. His wife and crew speak no English.
He drives a brand new F-350 dually and is building what looks like a 3,000 sq ft home on his $240,000 lot.
Imagine that. You drop yourself into a country totally foreign to you. You have whatever money you scraped together before leaving your 3rd world shithole. You don’t speak the language and know only the other foreigners from your clan who arrived before you.
You want to start a business? That requires capital, advertising, business licensing, employees, a reputation.
You cannot tell me these people are doing this without serious help: preferred loans, grants, subsidies, tax avoidance.
I’ve started 3 businesses. One thing I’ll tell you is it has been like pulling teeth over the years getting a loan for ANYTHING when you own a small business, unless you have YEARS of solid tax returns to show.
But this guy someone got financed for raw land, plus a construction loan, probably $750,000 in total?
And it’s not just him. It seems like every brand new truck at the gas station is being driven by a foreigner with no English.
This is not envy. We are very clearly being invaded and someone is helping the enemy army with my tax dollars.
2 years ago I lost a very lucrative contract to a crew of Hispanic foreigners who we outperformed by every metric (including pricing), all because the customer’s management was also Hispanic foreigners.
But we’ve all held our nose because we were told they were all going home. What a crock of bullshit that was.
So yeah people are about to snap, and when they do it’s going to be biblical.
Just FYI as someone who works in consumer tech and sees a whole lot of conversations online daily: people are starting to snap. Between the price of everything and being surrounded by these foreigners who don't belong here who are somehow better off than our own people who are struggling and the politicians who are enriching themselves and kissing Israel's ass on TV all day people have had enough. It's a pressure cooker out there.

Bellaire/Martins Ferry will always be special on name alone, but youngsters today will never understand 10-deep standing around the field watching Chad Brinker & Ben Taylor. No phones, no distractions, just people living in the moment. We were all spoiled!

This whole sequence was legendary. One of the best Neyland Effect moments that I’ve ever seen.
Bring back Vic Koenning @RealCoachRod @wrenbaker
6 years ago today I posted about WVU having the #1 defense in the county (YPG), while Marshall was 5th.
Now they have the 2nd and 7th worst.
