I agree with that. It is usually not trend setting. I just think the guy was a close adviser to JP3 and viewed the last years of his reign as a mistake.

I think it is quite possible that this Pope is setting a very smart precedent for future popes. You don't want 85 year old guys running huge, political world wide organizations. If he was CEO of...
Fischer got huge production out of Haynesworth, Jenkins, etc.
He and Marvin Lewis (&Mike Zimmer) can take more chances on low character guys for cheap because they can get them to play. However,...
USAO, how does one get access to the VIP?
If it is KC, I would imagine it would be taking Star L. or Joeckel #1 and trading up from 34 to around 20 or 25 to take Landry or Tyler Wilson.
That is not really different than anyone else. OU plays a 9 game conference schedule including a neutral site game. OU almost always plays a road non-conference game. OU generally plays a top...
14 teams is not a nightmare. 14 teams with an 8...
14 teams is not a nightmare. 14 teams with an 8 game conference schedule plus a protected rivalry game that only protects 2 games that people care about (UGA-Auburn & Tenn-Bama) is very difficult. ...
There is not an NFL player that played most of the snaps this year in our front 7. Every guy on the offensive line at minimum has a shot and 3 of them are locks Johnson, Ikard and Williams.
...
This guy is so talented you have to keep recruiting him. Bama, USC, OU and Texas have offered a Texas JUCO from North Carlolina by way of Houston and California. He is a Sunday guy.
I'd try to...
This is very important to a sport that defines impressive victories as a function of an x loss team and not a team that has defeated team a b and c. It is a sport that punishes losses and no longer...
The healthcare should have and still should be decoupled from employment long, long ago. It makes American competitiveness far weaker and stifles innovation.
Unless we fortify every embassy in the Middle and Near East, we are going to be vulnerable to these types of attacks.
If Broadwell had large amounts or important classified data, Petraus should...
We are actually having a good year in Houston with Dimon, Bennet and Ford, but not doing much in DFW other than Cody Thomas and the linebacker whose name I can't spell. Personally, I think we will...
I think Cuba will be a US territory or state this century.
The only good of the electoral college is that election cycles now cost 1.8 billion instead of 7 billion and people in deeply democratic or republican states are not inundated with ads.
The states...
ATL, I honestly had not thought of it that way but personally I would add 1 corner and a defensive end to that list.
That offense is set to explode if Bell can play and lead. It is also a type...
I think he is. I'd love to have 2 linebacker sized guys with speed to play de in nickle and dime on 3rd down with teh larger defensive ends like Tapper playing some 3 technique.
We are going to...
May I please have VIP access too?
We are in a negative interest rate environment.
Europe can't southern Europe can't get their fiscal house in order and northern Europe won't provide any stimulus for their own economies. They have...
I really appreciate this post.
The thing is I think Romney is a pragmatist and in the correct environment could be a good president like GHWB. I think he is smart, dedicated, relatively honest,...
This is reason 1A for not joining the SEC.
Well it runs on gas too with a 300-350 mile range. It is decidedly not the load the family in for a vacation car. It is a commuter car.
It will use primarily coal based electricity, but that...
Still, you are getting at least 1/2 of that free on the baseload.
If you read the whole article, they are creating positive cash flow of about $10-15K per vehicle, but it is not enough volume to make up for the sunk r&d costs.
Some people will soon take...
This is true but unlikely to happen if Europe is at -2% or worse.
I generally like the notion of a consumption tax, but it has been the primary tax differentiation between the US and EU for decades and a part of the reason that European growth, especially...
She should have left politics out of a speech at a political convention? She is not the Secretary of State.
I thought she did a good job of doing something her husband struggles or can't do: ...
MP made a great post. But I will disagree with him on 1 or 2 things OU tries doing or has done that differentiated it from the same stuff we were doing in 2000.
OU uses alot of joker players that...
OSU is definitely better at running back. OU is better at qb and probably receiver. Personally I think OU is better at corner and Tony Jefferson is good at safety but I'm not sure who is better at...
Do dogs in Korea come when you call them or do they see humans as predators?
The Cat Jeweler's mugshot is a 10 out of 8.
1340 KEBC, just look for Oklahoma City sports.
They are on I Heart Radio which is either free or a couple of bucks.
It seems like he should get a discount.
Most of the bondholders were banking on a government bailout to make them whole or close to it. They thought since it was TARP it would be treated like the Wachovia or AIG debtors and when it did...
Fisher and Les Snead know what they are doing. The Rams have high priced free agents at center and right guard. Saffold is a pretty good player and would be a very good right tackle. They need...
I agree. If you pay the same you should get the same.
15-18% is not an unbearable rate to be taxed for cap gains. That is about what it is now and about what it has been at its lowest.
We...
Sure. I was just pointing out the guy making around the maximum tax threshold is paying a far higher percentage of FICA taxes than the guy making $250.
Capital gains should be taxed. The idea...
Social security and self employment taxes cap out around $110k so the incremental 150k is not taxed for FICA. It is taxed for Medicare.
Their offense is so bad that their defense does not get a credible look versus passing teams. I do wish we had Edmond and one of their nicklebacks.
Is this actually happening this season? When does it start? Does OU get paid in aggie bat guano or Australian dollars which can be converted to Outback gift certificates?
The Fed was created in 1913. As an economy becomes more industrial, service and information based vs. agrarian it will have more fluctuations. From 1940 to 2008 we only had mild recessions and they...
If he comes here we can put him one the Trey Franks plan.
We should target immigration to people with phd's and masters degrees. It is insanity to export one of our greatest resources, our university system, back to countries of origin and never receive...
I would not mind seeing one of the bigger guys in the slot like Josh Norman played in the early 2000's. OSU has done a really good job of finding Tracy Moore a spot there. I would not be surprised...
You should probably just take a bunch of wiener pics and put them on craigslist. I don't see how that won't work out for you.
Mauti would be our best linebacker and one of the top defensive players in the B12 if he was at OU. But I expect most of the seniors to stay.
Fired dead guys don't get due process.
It really means they can bring in 15 recruits per year for 4 years, but when you compound it with free transfers it is pretty harsh.
$60mm for charities around nation for child abuse
4 year post season ban

Mark Emmert has awesome hair.
