I love the architecture of sport stadiums. Here's one in Siena, Spain:

None of the JFK conspiracy theories hold water. However ... If you want conspiracy, look into the Alger Hiss case. Also, Hitler and Stalin's cooperation began in 1933 not with the September 1939 pact -- that might be the greatest conspiracy of the 20th century.

Ha! Stossel does come off as a wuss. Coulter's "suck up to your liberal friends" line is dead right. I like her fiestiness and willingness to take on lefties anywhere, but she can be a real deadhead as well.

Anything by Hoffer, but especially The True Believer. 1984 taught me that the authorities mean the exact opposite of what they say. Add Brave New World by Huxley which is also distopic but in a way different from Orwell and We by Yevgeny Zamyatin which inspired 1984. I promise that We will knock...

Negro Cleve Bryant, Mack Brown's right-hand man at UT, lost his job and caused the university to settle up with one of these recruiting whores for $400,000 after harassing her: http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/id/7128526/texas-paid-400k-settle-claim-cleve-bryant

This is an everyday part of recruiting. Major schools (and likely some minor ones as well) have official corps of pretty (predominantly white)women who shepard potential athletes around the campus. These groups have names, at U of Texas they are the "Texas Angels."...

After the United States conquered Mexico in the 1840s, the great Southern philosopher John C. Calhoun warned we not try to integrate Mexico into the nation because the mestizo population was incapable of upholding the founding ideas of the Republic (limited government, individual rights, etc.)...

I took two years of German in high school and studied Spanish in grade school and college and had to use it on the job (really Tejano, which is a vulgar, border Spanish). I have a rough working knowledge of both.

I thought this deserved its own thread. SMU senior RB Zach Line was named Offensive Player of the Year, marking the first time a running back has won the award since UCF’s Kevin Smith in 2007. Line leads the league with 1,207 rushing yards, becoming the second player in SMU history (Reggie...

Only someone who has never seen Zach Line run the ball would say he can't manuver and doesn't have speed. The guy has a great instinct for the open field and the ability to cut, run and power his way into it. The problem is that SMU loads its whole running game on Zach's back. Coach June Jones...

Very interesting thread, Tom Iron. My dad was a lineman for the telephone company and a member of the Communication Workers of America until he joined management with a promotion to supervisor. When I came out of the Marines, I landed a job as a cable splicer (very good money in those days). I...

Zach Line needs just 60 rushing yards to reach the 1,000-yard mark for the third consecutive season. Line is averaging 104.4 yards per game and ought to get it this Saturday against Southern Miss. He has 194 carries in 2012 for 940 yards and six touchdowns.

The good news: Romney lost. The bad news: Obama won. Right now people are in that "we need to come together as a country and settle our differences," mode. But I say we have irreconcilable differences and should go our own ways. The U.S. faces the same crisis as the European Union: very soon...

Note the smug, self-assuredness as the disciple of Cultural Marxism meets the lowly pleb to deliver a sermon unto her which could be chatechism of the anti-bigot bigot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STRg3ZdkDFo&feature=plcp The man's name is Adam M. Smith and he originally posted this video...

I'm surprised there isn't a thread decicated to Hardee who will compete for the the gold in the decathalon in London soon. I like this guy. He's a Bama boy from Birmingham and started out as a basketball player before switching to the decathalon in high school. Went to Mississippi State then...

Excellent photos, DixieDestroyer! Beauty queen: Kent State University 1962:

The Confederate flag used to be everywhere. As a kid traveling through Dixie, the Rebel battle flag was a hugely popular item in gift shops. I have a collection of photos of the many uses of the CSA flag from the past: Birmingham Barons farm team. Westbury HS Mascot, Houston, Texas 1970s...

Excellent list, Anak, though I haven't read Duke's book or Graf's. Yockey's Imperium is downloadable and free. Orwell's 1984 is a must. I read it in high school under the tutelage of a teacher who really understood Orwell's works and the history around them and his guidance gave me a deeper...

Did anyone bother to look at the date of the original post? The article is from the 2008 election.

"... Ladanlian Tomlinson retired and he is wearing some 1910's golf outfit and these dumb looking glasses..." Ha! I saw that and thought, 'what is that jackass wearing?' These hipster frames used to be passe when I was in junior high (circa the early 1970s). Kids dropped them en masse for the...

My problem with many of the names listed here is that they weren't really actors but personalities. I love John Wayne and Paul Newman, but they essentially created personas that they replicated in film after film. Someone mentioned Anthony Hopkins in The Elephant Man, an excellent example of a...

Jax, when you say that Bradbury's passing was treated casually (a well chosen word for it) and then note that he was a conservative, you might see a connection between the two. Lefties always hold up Fahrenheit 451 as an anti-McCarthyite work when it is really an attack upon what we now call...
