TVD Staying at UM Mega-Thread (F off Nick and the local Miami media dreck)

Every car has multiple cupholders today. Her car was a 1989 Ford Probe. No cupholders. There is a flat part on the passenger dashboard, but would a reasonable person be expected to reach all the way over there to use it?

so they should have sued Ford for not installing cupholders.

I pray for his sake that he doesn’t have a bad first quarter against Texas A&M. The fan base will go from 0 to 10 in 1.2 interceptions.

But on the flip side, if he balls out we’ll

 

[TRick72]

im impressed you found a pic of an 89 Ford Probe.

I sent the pic to him, that’s my whip

Yes, but after the Pinto case, Ford decided not to write any more internal memos that dollar-quantified loss of life and/or body parts.

Wong lead the team to the first Elite 8 and Miami brought in some dudes with publicized NIL.

TVD mis-“lead” the team to a 5-7 season, looked afraid against So Miss, got benched against MTSU and leveraged our destroyed QB room…

Wong looked around and said WTF man.
TVD looked around and said **** you man.

TVD is on the clock….AGAIN

Quoted for truth.
These are not similar situations at all.

Barry Jackson be having me dead lol

The replies ....

 

[Page305]

It’s simple, Wong is HIM and tvd is not HIM

Lmao facts

Yes, but after the Pinto case, Ford decided not to write any more internal memos that dollar-quantified loss of life and/or body parts.

now they email the incriminating information between themselves.

I KNEW somebody owned a Ford Probe.

Reminds me of the old David Letterman Top 10 list of rejected car model names:

10. Pontiac Cyst
9. Dodge Glove
8. Oldsmobile Beiruter
7. Nissan Spleen
6. Chevy Junta
5. Hyundai Accordion
4. Mazda Eczema 500
3. Dodge Johnson
2. Yugo ***** Yourself
1. Ford Gelding

Not sure what kind of a cup they were using back then (and we all know that styrafoam is disfavored today), but the temperatures were taken from the coffee pots themselves. The drive-through kid would pour it into a cup, cap it, and either hand it over to the driver or put it in one of those 4-slot cup carriers.

The woman was elderly (not spry) and had her seatbelt on in a relatively small car with "bucket" type seats. And no cupholders in the car. Because she couldn't wriggle free, the contact lasted for longer than 2 seconds. The whole situation was like a perfect storm of bad circumstances.

As @wspcane said, the real reason McDonald's made the coffee so hot was for drive-through customers who would have the coffee in-transit for several minutes before drinking it. If you're just sitting in the restaurant, you can always get a refill if the coffee goes cold.

Just think how much MORE drive-through business McDonald's does today vs. 1989. If they still kept the coffee THAT hot today, you'd be opening up entire burn wings in hospitals to treat drive-through injuries.

That's not the most infamous thing McDonald's has been sued for, they did a Netflix series on this case:

So what's the TL;DR version of this tale?

 

[TheOriginalCane]

now they email the incriminating information between themselves.

Like Fox News does!

 

[JustAFanHTX]

now you are hanging yourself even more.

Cubans are white, Cubans are black and Cubans are mulattos. Anglos are white, Anglos are black and Anglos are mulattos. ethnicity does not equal race.

Bro I don’t care to be honest with you I’m on a beach. I’m sorry or if you don’t accept the apology I’m not. Lol

 

[JD08]

so they should have sued Ford for not installing cupholders.

If that happened now, I'm sure they would, but cupholders are still causing lawsuits.

The case of the crummy BMW cupholders

A $5 million class-action lawsuit says liquid can leak through the bottom of BMW cupholders and damage electronics underneath.

****, now we have "cupholder flex"!

Just kidding, I love it.

2022 Toyota Tacoma

13 cupholders!

Bro I don’t care to be honest with you I’m on a beach. I’m sorry or if you don’t accept the apology I’m not. Lol

i don't care either, i am just trying to enlighten you so that you don't make public statements in the future that make you look unintelligent and ignorant.

FYI. mario is both white AND cuban.
Yasiel Puig is both black AND cuban

 

[AndreiVasy88]

lol I like this Barry tbh. its great. dude is the only one that covers every team down here. I think he's got his job secured forever and UM is just so small market compared to the other teams he covers that It doesn't matter. I've said before, covering UM football isn't big time here. it's a start up job for younger reporters. its why the talented ones moved on to cover pro teams (porter left to cover the bruins, deiter left to cover the Bay Area teams). the only ones that stayed on are the **** reporters (Manny, SMD, etc.). Reynolds covers all Miami teams for the AP which is what Barry does for the Herald.

Oh man Matty Ports. That guy was something else.

i don't care either, i am just trying to enlighten you so that you don't make public statements in the future that make you look unintelligent and ignorant.

Listen I don’t care about either one of those things I’m okay. But thank you for the enlightenment lol

So what's the TL;DR version of this tale?

We were good then we were not, and now we are good again. 15-0.

A lot of times, you don't have to be great at your job to leverage your boss for more money. You just have to be better than anyone else they have.
