    Expected that response from everyone but SEC fans, get with the program. Several baseball programs in the SEC outdraw all but the top 2 basketball programs each year. Still waiting to see far in the hole Northern Illinois went for playing in a BCS game. In other football news I read in an...

    In more of the NCAA sucks college baseball started yesterday. Went to the LSU game last night. New rule from the NCAA. Players can't have an individual song played while they walk from the dugout to the plate. LSU has had walkout songs for each player for at least the last 20 years. Not sure the...

    I haven't even looked at Windows 8 but if you have to disable much of the new stuff to get it to look and act like Windows 7 what do you gain by going to Windows 8 over 7 formostusers?

    Apparently they are going to amend the bill to allow the manufacture of mags greater than 15 but they couldn't be sold or posessed in CO. Apparently this was done to try and convince Magpul to stay in CO. Not sure what their take is on that.

    Proposed rule changes for next year. http://espn.go.com/college-football/...on-illegal-hit The NCAA Football Rules Committee said it had unanimously approved strengthening of the penalty for intentional above-the-shoulder hits. The 15-yard penalty will now have an ejection tacked on...

    What is the deal I heard a few minutes ago about an article back a few days saying they found his ID when he tried to grab a boat and now they say they found it again. Article is dated the 11th http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lano...-got-help.html So how many sets of ID and wallets do you...

    I don't know if it will pass or not. But it left committee with a 2:1 margin in the vote along with the background check deal. Reading the Magpul release yesterday made it pretty much a done deal if they passed it that they would look to relocate to a more gun friendly state.

    In Colorado they have had 2 bills in the last few days pass thru committee and will have a full vote. One bans magazines for rifles above a capacity of 15 and shotguns at 8 I believe. The other requires background checks on all sales including private person to person sales. If the magazine one...

    Pope Benedict XVI resigns

    I wouldn't be suprised if they picked a pope from South America, Central America or perhaps even Africa. But I'm not catholic just seems like that those are either already catholic areas or areas they could expand into more.

    I thought I would ask here before I started another thread. Any college baseball fans? It's a pretty big deal in the SEC and a few schools out west but pretty below the radar everywhere else. It's a huge deal here at LSU and only (2) basketball programs in the country outdrew LSU baseball in...

    Yeah we have them on the schedule the next 2 years as well, didn't mention them because they are outside the top 10 at #12 and they are not a permanent opponent for us like everyone in the west and Florida. What's ridiculous is Georgia was listed in one article as being a "loser" on signing...

    Until Foggy responded to that pic I thought it was a fake someone at A&M made up and posted at Tiger Droppings, only after his post did I look into it and see it was real. I did read about Mack Brown saying he wanted to cut scholarship offers to recruits who take other visits. I don't see that...

    Entertaining. Interesting to read where Brown said the way UT recruits in the future is going to change and play more hardball with the way they offer scholarships and will possibly yank offers if kids go to other schools for a visit. I'm guessing that goes over like a lead balloon.

    There have been several service bulletins about the issues with touchscreens in Fords over the last few years. Maybe they finally got them straightened out. You can find lots of reports of them acting buggy, from the touchscreen itself to the software underneath.

    Under the strict letter of the law in the Feinstein bill introduced a large number of Glock handguns would be banned because of the part where it says any semi auto handgun that has a full auto model available to military/police would also be banned.

    Buying a car?

    Did Ford get the computers in their cars finally straightened out. I know for a while they were having lots of issues with the computer interface and touchscreen. All that isn't for me but I know I'm in the super minority.

    Gun control

    The reason the Feinstein list of banned guns looks the way it does is because literally her staff that knows nothing about firearms sits down with one years edition of Gun Digest or other catalog and goes thru and picks out guns that look "scary and evil". If a gun wasn't made that year or...

    More goofiness in the NY law that wasn't thought out well.

    Not yet I believe. They had 6 months to come up with a law that would allow conceal carry and that was several months ago. Last I heard the alderman or whatever they are in Chicago was going to fight it again even tho they have already paid out $400,000 on the last loss.

    How are you going to ban "bullets" since anyone can cast their own using wheel weights and maybe a little linotype if you want them a little harder and a $20 mould? As for as reloading goes you can load a cartridge with as little as a $30 lee loader that you hold in your hand and dies are out...
