The Swamp

I don't want to be a dick and answer a second time but I'm a gonna because I also just read David McCullough's book about the settlers of the Northwest Territory and it occurs to me that it could also be (and this would be ironic given Sabo's answer) but the University of Ohio? I'm cool with it, pa...

(I'm currently taking a three-week-long seminar from Rutgers, and they've mentioned this fact multiple times.)

Sounds like it's more of an opinion from Rutgers, because while it was formed prior to the answer I'm seeking, it did not become a land-grant school until the 1860s.

It's not the answer I was looking for, it it does count it's ambiguous as to whether it would be the first. So I'm gonna say no.

I guess the Federal Government can't really grant itself land?

Gunpowder

What was the first land-grant university in the US?

Gunpowder

Wide right. Brutal. I was confident that if that went in, the Chiefs were scoring anyways. this is kinda where I was at. as soon as the third down pass fell incomplete - with the time on the clock and the situation, I figured the Chiefs were getting a field goal to win if not a TD this is controver...

If it's going to be nice then the Lions have a real shot at this

I'm confused how Terrelle Pryor is relevant for number 4, am I misunderstanding this question?

The Oscar category was driving me nuts. The one woman was smart and just quickly shouting out the last names. I kept waiting for the other woman to catch on and stop struggling over first names when she seemed to have the last name down. Wasted a lot of time. And still smoked the "expert"...

So many more questions... How did you get selected or even know about the show? A friend down here was helping with casting and told me to apply. I read what they wanted and I said no. She said no just do it. I said ok. The secret to getting on TV shows is applying to get on TV shows, it seems. I h...

Haa one kid wanted flags but they gave it out already so they gave him books. He didn't know shit about books.

Another reason I stayed up was that if I was gonna lose I'd rather not go out being embarrassed not knowing what, like, paprika looks like.

This was maybe the best concept I've seen in the "heavily-edited, reality-show-influenced, lit-like-a-backstage-rave-exclusively-for-twitch-streamers" game show genre. A low bar, but it was actually fun to watch and not totally dumbed down. I think the "damn these idiots dont know wh...

Water always seems to find the route you don't want it to find; I'd be skeptical too.

Syb, I would seriously post that to some applicable reddit thread and see if anyone else has had a similar experience.

Gunpowder

ok - this was amazing :D Gunpowder - that's completely awesome. Looking good up there. We should have a thread of/about Swampers on national (or any) tv. seeing as I'm completely out of touch, what's the concept here? is every person on the floor a contestant or are there teams? From what I gathere...

Everyone is an individual contestant with a "specialty" that was mostly assigned loosely based on what you told them you were good at, and whatever they could clearly do without needing to pay royalties. Once you "duel", whatever category was played is gone and if the winner was ...

No, I played stupid and got eliminated. I didn't say anything because I lost so fuck it. Didn't really say much anywhere. Rob Lowe goaded her into challenging me (btw I'm in episode 3), and she absolutely should not have done it. A bunch of these people just memorized logos, like that was enough to ...

oh hell yeah, got a ceiling crack going from the hall closet/pantry in the kitchen to the front wall by the door. textured ceiling too. I'm fairly sure it's because of the sustained below-zero temps we've had recently. time to cross off another accomplishment on the home repair list next week after...

You could probably make a pretty good argument to the contrary

Both. I think both.

I mean we always talk about both them and the Dolphins melting down in big games, so naturally this would make sense

Johnnie wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 12:09 pm Is this the reason everyone says the word "allegedly" so they have a sort of plausible deniability or something?

I mean, yeah, it often is. It's why Fox puts a question mark after certain headlines.

Gunpowder

Going to San Francisco is most likely the best case for a non-top seed Lions team. As long as it's not wintry they've got a shot.

I like them against Bucs/Eagles much more than I did against the Rams.

Ever since watching prime Aaron Rodgers struggle through 2015 with McCarthy spamming curls and slants I've been out on him. Green Bay knew exactly what was coming.

This weekend is working to be a trial run when they expand to a 16 team playoff. They’ll adjust the season so Round 1 (it won’t be the wild card round anymore) will be MLK weekend. They’ll do a triple header on Saturday and Sunday, and then an afternoon and night game on Monday. And have the player...

maybe if the Bills have Allen throw 30 times

Pretty impressive by Mac Jones to complete 67% of his passes in those conditions.

Wow, Rush 2nd lowest scorer and misses the 'yoffs at 8-9

That's what I did as well but since it comes down to like common opponents and conference records I ain't got time for that

If you have a list of all matchups over the course of the season I can figure them out for you and you can check my work

if you buy a new door handle it may be easier to just install that in whole than trying to put your current one back together via a repair Most likely the case, depending on what happened with the old one and if you can even get a replacement for what you need. Do you have a picture of your handle?

It's going to be -40 here Thursday night. A lot of people like to quote windchills as an exaggeration of the temperature, which is a peeve of my pedantic self. "It was minus FORTY!". No it wasn't. It was -29 and windy. But it will actually be -40 which is extreme, even for around here I'm...

Sure he was much better in that game than he was with Canada but he was still staring guys down and falling backwards on throws and stuff. He's essentially Justin Fields without elite talent. Still more arm talent than Rudolph and I wouldn't decide now to move off of him for next season but I can't ...

You think it was bad then, game devolved quite a bit in the second half

Oh no!

I'm going to assume he is a house music DJ
