Oh man, Pinkel. Wow. I've said some dumb poo poo about him in anger but he really turned our program from a total joke to a contender. He's also a really good guy. I hope he does well.

I guess Pinkel's actions this week make more sense if he knew he was on his way out anyway.

My uncle is rent a cop for Kia and he likes to talk up THAT TRIPLE OPTION OFFENSE THAT THE SUPERIOR GEORGIA TECH HAS meanwhile he is from NJ with no college degree, looks like a fat wolverine, and bakes terrible bread so what I am saying is gently caress Kia and gently caress GA Tech

VDay posted:It's about where a normal logo would be on a helmet, and we're doing it as a way to thank SEALs specifically since our team's been working with some during their offseason training I guess, so it's not like it's just some super random thing we made up. It's bad rear end. I'm surprised they're doing it.

I'm pretty sure Kentucky is the king of car manufacturing in the SEC. Currently it has 2 ford plants, Toyota, and the Corvette plant.

Is there a book that someone can recommend me about the car manufacturing and assembly plants in the South? This is such a fascinating topic!

Not a book but if you want to see how messed up American car manufacturing is, this episode of This American Life is a face palm inducing overview of GM and the UAW pretty much bumbling their way into bankruptcy via stubbornness. I also know you were being sarcastic and want this topic to die.

Alabama has Honda, Hyundai, Mercedes, and Toyota. We also have Airbus, a bunch of space/military manufacturing, and Heil, which is the company that makes garbage trucks/etc for most of the country. Being maybe the most hostile state in the country to unions brings the factories in.

I don't know if it's still this way, but when I was in college, you could double alabama's property taxes, and they'd still be the lowest in the country

Since schools use money from property taxes for funding and Alabama has low property taxes maybe that's why it's a lovely state with no industry? Although it is very pretty to drive through :-).
