If the Caucasoid SJWs were to successfully cancel Yost and get all of his wins vacated, it would put a pretty big dent in their helmet status.This is an odd part of our culture. We take something that's relatively dumb (throwing a fit over this incident) and drag it out to the most backwild limit so it can offend us. As if vacating wins actually matters in the first place.
Gone would be 165 wins including 6 National Championships and two additional undefeated seasons, 10 Big Ten Titles, a win in the first ever Rose Bowl, 16 wins vs Ohio St, 16 wins vs Michigan St, 2 wins vs Notre Dame, and 10 wins vs Minnesota.
Ga Tech players would have reacted "badly" to a "colored" player on the opponent's team.In the era of WW2, there were people who believed a master white race should remain at the top? I feel like I learned that somewhere.
That was a time few of us can imagine, fortunately, but should try and understand and learn about.
Godwin's Law always wins.It is especially great when people were comparing Yost to Hitler at the time, and while Hitler was in power.
Open and wide spread racism was notable when I was a kid in the 1960s. And it was not solely in the South. White players would have tried to hurt a black player on an opposing team, maybe a bit less so by 1968, but certainly in 1934. It was accepted, "politically correct", and politicians got elected by openly espousing it.When we played in H.S. there was only 1 time I remember anyone deliberately trying to take out a black player.And it was because he was a cornerback who threw mud in the blockers eyes on sweeps to his side - repeatedly.He got his - It wasn't racial - it was warrented they would have stomped him regardless

Very few white folks in the 1930s were not "racists" using the current definition, north or south. It was a widely shared belief that blacks were inferior and only equipped for menial jobs etc. It took a long time for that to start to change, for some.You could easily be describing today with this post.
A black player (Thorpe Award winner Lawrence Wright) popularized that phrase/cheer in the mid-90s.And they couldn't even cast him in Django?

My granny had an interesting name for brazil nuts.

When words take on highly negative connotations, one's use of them conveys those connotations, even if it's unwitting. If I call you a "banana" today, it means nothing, but at some point it COULD mean something highly charged, and you'd take it as such. Our vocabulary is fluid, and meanings change.Banana is already a racial slur.
You bad.
Billionaires aren't evil, it's just that their priority is money. None of you seemed to agree with me a couple of months back, but it's true. No one oopses into becoming a billionaire.Many are.
They have many big decisions along the way, and at each fork in the road, they chose more wealth.
.
This isn't radical. It's obvious.
But go ahead and tell me I'm wrong.

Who has ever said that?
just like oopsing at birth as a white person doesn't make them racist
Billionaires aren't evil, it's just that their priority is money. None of you seemed to agree with me a couple of months back, but it's true. No one oopses into becoming a billionaire.In my opinion, the goal isn't money... Money is the scorecard by which they measure achieving their goal.

The number of people who were born into being a billionaire, worldwide, in the history of earth, can be counted on your fingers and toes.I'm guessing the number of people born into vast wealth outnumber the number of folks that built that weath, by a wide margin
| [th]Source of wealth[/th] [th]Number of billionaires[/th] | |
| Self-made | 1,639 |
| Inherited / self-made | 836 |

I'm guessing the number of people born into vast wealth outnumber the number of folks that built that weath, by a wide marginI might agree with you on "vast wealth", but not always on billionaires... That's pretty rarified air, and becoming a billionaire is a new enough phenomenon that not as many as you think have had time to die and pass it on yet lol... I.e. Buffett's kids may be billionaires someday, but he ain't dead yet.
Think the Sam Walton's kids, or Warren Buffet's children
so, you're saying there are fewer than 20 billionaires?
maybe 20 or 30 years ago
I'd guess there are plenty of politicians in DC that are billionaires

The wife had one "luxury item" she'd enjoy, someone to cook meals at night, even if 3 times a week. Some of the top chefs in Paris were doing this when their places were closed, it was not THAT expensive.If I had the money NOW with kids in the house, especially if for whatever reason (being an entrepreneur, etc) I was still working, I'd absolutely do the private chef thing. I like cooking, but sometimes on a weeknight with kids, I just don't want to do it.
She has a maid service every two weeks. I think that is reasonable, I think she pays $130 each time. They do a good job.
I'd like to be able to buy first class plane tickets overseas without thinking about it. I can't justify the $5 K overage at all. Times two. I actually am fine with our lifestyle, if I had oodles of money I'd be working on making useful donations.
First class domestic isn't nearly like first class overseas, Delta One, full recline, your own bed ...So I've heard... I've only experienced domestic, and it was SO much better than coach that I can only imagine what international is like...
I was pretty happy 5 years ago when I hit a million. Now I'm happier.I hit a million last year.
I could not even fathom being a billionaire. Or even getting to $10 Mil. Not happening.

In investments/retirement accounts.Gotcha.
so, the loser of the Frost/Harbaugh game in Lincoln on October 9th is in big trouble with FinnyI mean, One or both are going to be in trouble with their fans unless something changes.
Gotcha.Good to know.
I’m working up on that front, but a healthy chunk of that will some day be a down payment for a house. Ideally if this maybe bubble pops.

France is open to folks vaccinated June 9. I priced tickets ATL-> CDG in Oct to check.Under the terms of the agreement, United will purchase 15 of Boom's 'Overture' airliners, once Overture meets United's demanding safety, operating and sustainability requirements, with an option for an additional 35 aircraft. The companies will work together on meeting those requirements before delivery. Once operational, Overture is expected to be the first large commercial aircraft to be net-zero carbon from day one, optimized to run on 100% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). It is slated to roll out in 2025, fly in 2026 and expected to carry passengers by 2029. United and Boom will also work together to accelerate production of greater supplies of SAF.
$1,135 economy ( a good price really, but odds are good you'll be near screaming kids)
$1,303 economy comfort (we usually choose this level)
$1,645 premium select (this is about like first class domestic, or business class in the olden times)
$4,253 Delta One (this usually is over $5K, I've seen in the sevens)
A reason to upgrade some, aside from leg room, is to get away from kids. Prices are relatively low right now.
I booked Hawaii a month ago in Dec. and first class tickets were $1650 or so, that is the normal economy class fare. This is domestic FC, not Delta One, goes through LAX.
Were I wealthy, I'd just blow the extra $3K times 2 and not worry about it. But I always think "Man, I could do stuff with the extra $5k ...
Like Bob Hope once said about Concord - Gives you an extra 3 hrs to find your luggage
Capable of flying at speeds of Mach 1.7 – twice the speed of today's fastest airliners –
you know more than 10,000 simulations???Only time will tell...
I don't listen or look at him intentionallyYou sound like his wife, probably
Does not look good at all. Makes me wonder how much of this shit went on, like everywhere?Same. OSU, MSU, UM, PSU all had documented longtime sexual abusers, and I tend to think it's unlikely the issue is limited to them.

Maybe I'll make a donation of $25 to get my name on Schembechler Hall.I have to check the math, but you might have a better Rose Bowl record, so $25 should do
