  1. Past hour
  2. So what would a Walker trade look like? He has 2 years 40m left on his deal at age 35. When he signed his deal, it was reported that he had a limited NTC as well: "Christian Walker's three-year contract with the Astros contains a limited no-trade clause that will allow him to block a trade to six teams, a person familiar with the deal said." There were a lot first basemen moving around last offseason, but several of those were 1 year rentals. I would expect the 1b market to be at least warm this offseason, so there may be a good opportunity to send him out and take on a player/reclamation project with some salary they want to offload. I hope they don't end up paying down like 20m of that deal in dead money to get rid of him.
  3. Y'all travel far? Based on your name, maybe you're playing the Lodge 88 Czechfest in Houston this weekend?
  4. You misspelt "talent," but yeah, chicken or the egg. Talent gives coaches more margin for error. The money brings the talent.
  5. probably cost more than buying a metal one, given lumber prices.
  6. Good lord! I may actually have to go downtown for this one….. http://www.kxan.com/news/local/austin/there-is-a-new-lubys-in-downtown-austin/amp/
  7. No, they can’t, and they know it. We match up way better with OU’s athletes than Florida’s athletes. They are fucked if Mateer can’t go.
  8. I’m not sure I’d rush my starting quarterback back for a cupcake game against us, but if he wants to make a statement and we can ruin OU season by injuring them further I’m all for it
  9. Tech is the model showing that money is more important than coaching. It's why I'm way more concerned with compiling NIL commitments before OSU hires a new coach. Saw a rumor yesterday that we have an up and coming billionaire who is good friends with Dana Holgorson and might throw his weight behind the roster if we hire him as HC. I'm not entirely thrilled with the idea of Holgy returning as HC but if it comes with a fully funded roster, I'm all for it, because that is what's more important. Let others do some of the HC heavy lifting like roster and locker room management and let him coach offense and bring in a good independent DC to do the same? I'd take that setup over the old model even if it was Saban or some other old legend (yes I know he's not in the running just making a point).
  10. I was worried, but Baghdad Bobby convinced me.
  11. This is fucking fantastic and should be required viewing at practice this week.
  12. If Thanksgiving travel is a mess(messier than the mess it will already be) will people even notice? Lots of scar tissue from the Pandemic air travel issues and the last few years of air travel being a shit show anyway.
  13. I don't remember most of it.
  14. Is Jacory Croskey-Merritt worth a full FAAB?
  15. Well there is only one constant and it is Flood. Gerry talks about him at Alabama as a way to excuse Flood but I don't think he either recruited or had a final say on who got recruited to play OL at Alabama. These are his guys and his pupils and they suck. Finally Coach Shipley put Gerry in his place by saying the OL is all Flood's fault because he is either not teaching them to deal with the stunts they are seeing or his recruiting guys that can do what he wants them to do.
  16. I need to invest in some blindfolds I guess. (This series of gifs with Big Bird inserted into The Birds movie is fucking righteous.)
  17. Recycling is woke, anyway.
  18. you have a cool-ass son. yeah, I've been getting into more bands like them lately. they're sort of a cross between thrash and hardcore with rappy elements. I dig it, not my main bag, but definitely a nice style to feather into a long playlist
  19. Damn, I missed catching up on this thread yesterday. Some of you boys had a really rough Saturday night, huh?
