Sakerlina pulls away in the 4th quarter to win 31-20.

Tech support questions:

1) Why do you get purple hyperlinks?

2) Why does every new post say “Posted 4 hours ago”?
Is TBG on some kind of time delay?

3 ) How the hell is something that wasn’t news 5 years ago “Trending”?

Calm down TBG, after the Republican primary Nancy Mace will be back to fix this techno FUBAR.

1) Probably coded that way in the style sheet.

2) I’ve been wondering that myself. Is there a delay before the posts go live? Or does it just say 4 hours by default unless it is more?

3) Probably because one person from Google or doing a search on the site clicked it, therefore +1 hit = “trending.”

I ignore everything on the home page except the article photo. This is because the faint print contrast is almost unreadable . Also, the links in a post are very faint. The time on the photo is probably when it was approved internally. The best I can come up with on the flame icon to the right of the comments icon is that it is probably the count of the different individuals who open the article (if you open and close the article yourself 2-3 times quickly the number doesn’t change).

TGB has done the same thing. Either we are both highly intelligent and curious or… we’ve got WAAAAY too much time on our hands…

Trending probably means that he’s still getting Google hits even though the story is old.

The most annoying thing to me is the comments count. Until this last upgrade, the count was kept current, which is how I kept up with the new posts – by noting an increase in the number. Now, there may be 5 comments but the header shows 0, or vice versa.

Where do you get your spread cards from now that gambling in SC is illegal again…

I agree to disagree with you on this one.

Decisive wins influence National Championships. On the other hand we will not want to show Georgia too much of our game as they are about the only thing standing in the way of the conference title. Therefore, Spurrier will look for a comfortable lead early and then attempt to manage a respectable finish without flipping over too many cards.

Clowney sits out half two quarters

Prescient.

I’m going to call Gamecocks win 24-13. I think USC will be a bit sloppy in the first half. As long as they win, though, I’m all smiles.

TBG thinks you won.

Ass kicking of monumental proportions. It won’t be a 63-17 style beatdown (but what really is, amiright?), but the dicks will violate the demoralized shoes in the 2nd half.
40-17 dicks.

Well that wasn’t the ass kicking I thought it would be. Compared to a shitty ACC team, the all powerful SEC dicks didn’t look that great. And superman Clowney looked poorly conditioned for all the hype he generated.

We’ve had NFL quality tight ends for years, all of which we have underutilized. All. I don’t expect that to change, sadly.

I predict 27-10. I worry about bad weather. Hope there isn’t a delay
