They’re supposed to have a slam dunk competition after this game that AJ is in…

He just missed a dunk in game.

AJ is taking it easy. He could completely dominate this game at any moment

The mostly peaceful water bottle toss is tearing the board apart. I think we can all agree on one thing. As

spoxjox

All playoff games picked as 7 points or more wins—OSU, Penn State, ND & Texas

OU Cougar

10:07pm

ND and TX will win easily. SMU has a decent shot over PSU but I think they’ll come up short. OSU/Tenn is a toss up.

If you need motivation to start dieting in January, here is what Tim Allen weighs in The Santa Clause

TCuz Coastal Elite

10:06pm

I'd love to weigh 192 lbs. Got to lose ~20 to get there

Hoopster

10:08pm

That's because Tim Allen at 5'10 (probably 5'9") is basically a little person.

CSoul

NumbersGuy

To be fair this is not the complete transformation

JuicyJam

192 kg is morbidly obese.

spoxjox

10:16pm

Foreign languages are against the rules on Cougarboard.

TCuz

10:18pm

So is 192 stone. I think they measured him in stone.

Bob Vance

10:19pm

I would cry if I weighed 192. I would have a fat gut and moobs.

Superkid

10:22pm

I would cry if I weighed 192. Well, not really, but I would be tempted to shed

spoxjox

How tall are you? 192 is a great weight if you're the right height.

So you’re what…5’6?

That’s what I weighed this morning. Weird

DiamondMo

Yes. Teenagers do indeed think rationally. It's a human trait shared by most.

Many do. And by far, most wouldn’t have done what he did. Line of thought -

TP-Link Deco routers have some of the best reviews in mesh routers and Costco carries them

Costco is a bigger sham than TP link. Don’t be fooled twice.

Weird comment, but Deco routers are generally highly rated everywhere, including from

Whew. Fortunately TNT cannot afford a router

The water bottle sure looked thrown to hit someone

Gustav

It's very hard to know intent based on where it landed.

Let's see, he hurled it directly toward BYU fans or cheerleaders and had no intent to hit anyone? Why else does he throw

The vast majority of things thrown were in the NW corner of the end zone. Our team/crew were in the SW corner of the end

HarlemCoug

I am saying that is irrelevant.

Perhaps if he was just angry at the refs, he wouldn’t have yelled “[Expletive] BYU!” immediately before throwing the

If only there had been some BYU representatives where they were throwing things.

I this case it seems pretty easy

Wife_Apologist

We almost found that out once

SuperTank

No, this kid is rich. Rules don't apply to him.

Turd Ferguson

9:55pm

She is pressing charges. It's obviously more serious than some want it to be.

maYbe

9:51pm

Sure. A civil case for medical bills & any longer term effects doesn’t seem out of line.

Of course, and lawyers will be all over it. Make no mistake about it

ChiCityCoug

Kid? Was it a 7 year old? I thought he was older than that.

BYUtka

9:06pm

He’s an adult. Adults who assault people should face steep consequences. He’ll pay the consequence and he’ll be fine.

Consequences have one purpose. To produce a change of heart and a change of

Restitution and justice

YIsForBrigham

I appreciate your perspective. Here’s another point of view

RobDog

Consequences also serve as a deterrent to other committing similar crimes.

Ycrazy

9:26pm

How many people do you think who might be I a similar situation in the future

cougarfann888

9:31pm

Deterrence, punishment

wildeone

Not so. The consequences are in place to pay a societal debt.

spoxjox

I like the texting while driving analogy from OP. Everyone has done stupid

spidercoug

9:20pm

Texting is not an act of malice chucking a water bottle is malicious

Ycrazy

So texting while driving is perfectly safe and can't hurt anyone?

No it is an act of negligence and should be prosecuted but you don’t start

Texting while driving is worse because the potential for life altering damage

fatcracker

My point is both are stupid decisions that can hurt people.

spidercoug

9:40pm

The whole point of throwing a water bottle into a crowd is trying to hit someone

You think the over 100 people who threw things were all trying to hit someone? And they nearly all just happened to miss

We penalize everyone who gets caught driving drunk, but we penalize people who

spoxjox

HarlemCoug

Count Cougar

To my knowledge there is no mandatory minimum jail time for aggravated assault
