The Huntington City Council is now decided. A former Marshall athlete lost in his attempt to get elected. But don't worry about him: He played baseball at Marshall, kept getting his job taken from him, and lived in Huntington his entire life, so he is used to losing.

What is interesting is that Huntington's Nick Goff - friend of @big_country90 , @Rock98Dog , @ThunderCat98 , and @19MU88 - hosted a fundraiser at his house for that former Marshall athlete/aspiring politician. How much of an impact on the vote do you think took place due to Nick Goff of Huntington having been caught and exposed for being the anonymous person behind an X (formerly Twitter) account that made dozens of racist, anti-semitic, sexist, and homophobic comments and action plans?

Definitely a lot of ball pressure so far. Not sure if this lineup will produce enough offense against a better opponent, but we will see.

It is easy to see that they Just don't have the energy to keep fighting him.

Guess they will get to hear Kid Rock sing at the inauguration.

These people just don't get it.

More and more people, including bleaters of the left, are coming to the realization that Democrat policies suck.

She kept those cheating democrats in check.

Joey Gallo has played in the Big Leagues for the past 12 years.

Let's look at some important numbers for him over the past five seasons:

2020: .181 BA, 10 HRs, $4.4MM salary
2021: .199 BA, 38 HRs, $6.2MM salary
2022: .160 BA, 19 HRs, $10.3MM salary
2023: .177 BA, 21 HRs, $11MM salary
2024: .161 BA, 10 HRs, $5MM salary

This guy has earned $37MM over the past five seasons without hitting even .200 in any of the years! Hell, with the exception of one year, he hasn't even been close to hitting .200. He isn't a second baseman. He is a first baseman where a bat is required. Over the last five seasons, he has struck out 45% of his at bats! This is criminal and GMs continue to pay the guy heavily.

This is the kind of shit that is ruining baseball.

Since the weather has been turning colder, I have brought in several potted plants to keep alive through the winter. Unfortunately, little insect critters sometimes hitch a ride on the plants so I put out a light attracting, sticky paper insect trap.

Yesterday, a heard a big racket and found the cat stuck in the trap. I had to rip off a big section of her fur to get her out. I guess the warm light made her believe it would be a nice place to take a nap. Wrong.

She is inciting violence. She said never quit fighting.

What follows afterwards? I know I and my colleagues are prepping just like when a hurricane comes through.

Solidify the fort. Just picked up 90lbs of propane. Cash. Will top if with fuel later

Promises to fight back with the rule of law.

I don't know what she is fighting against but she is going to do it.

Trump and Cruz both had double digit wins. At 95% of the vote count Trump is up 14 and Cruz is up 10.

It was right at Kroger and only has to make it to Proctorville.

Polls are officially open on the east coast. Let’s keep it simple and post all last minute predictions, election updates, and results in this thread.

My prediction….I have no idea what’s going to happen.

As The Thundering Herd honored its seniors and improved to 5-3 with a 28-23 win over Louisiana Monroe, it is fitting that a senior received the top PFF grade for Marshall’s offense. Ethan Payne, who had eight carries for 51 yards and two touchdowns, graded at 82.4, as he seemingly willed his way into the endzone on multiple occasions.

Quarterback:
For the second game in a row, Braylon Braxton took every snap from behind center. Braxton was 10/19 passing for 166 yards and a touchdown. He also ran twelve times for 25 yards and received a PFF grade of 76.1.

Running Backs:
As Ethan Payne led the way with a grade of 82.4, Jordan Houston (nine carries, 80 yards; 2 receptions, 29 yards) was next in line at 72.3. A.J. Turner (12 carries, 49 yards, 1 touchdown) was third grading 71.8.

Wide Receivers:
Only four receivers recorded a reception in the win over the Warhawks with Chuck Montgomery (four catches, 68 yards) earning the high mark at 79.8. Montgomery was followed by Christian Fitzpatrick (2 catches, 44 yards, one touchdown) at 66.9 and Carl Chester (one catch, 22 yards) at 59.9. Tychaun Chapman had one catch for three yards and graded 42.6. Other grades of note despite no receptions: Bryan Robinson: 65.5; DeMarcus Harris: 57.4; Bralon Brown: 49.1.

Tight Ends:
As has been the theme throughout much of the season, Marshall’s tight ends were shut out of the statistical department against Louisiana Monroe. Their grades are as follows – Justin Holmes: 74.5; Toby Payne: 67.2; Cade Conley: 55.1.

Offensive Line:
Marshall has solidified their offensive line as all five starters played the entirety of 64 snaps. Jeremy Jones had the top mark among the big men up front grading 76.2 (42.8 pass block; 80.8 run block). Logan Osburn posted a grade of 76.1 (82.2 pass block; 70.8 run block) while Jalen Slappy graded 71.1 (29.2 pass block; 75.8 run block). Elijah Ellis and Bryce Ramsey round out the starting five with grades of 70.0 (87.0 pass block; 63.1 run block) and 67.6 (49.8 pass block; 68.7 run block), respectively.
