  1. Past hour
  2. Bah gawd, that's a Blinn Chernobyl Station 11!!!
  3. Whatever you do, don't Google sour grapes on assholes. Trust me on this one.
  4. Good post. Their board is their board, and it doesn’t have borders. I think the only sure thing these days is a U Lab kid signing with LSU.
  5. Great paragraph from ESPN’s game summary. I will include the paragraph before. ”Germany were not making things easy for themselves. Sjoeke Nüsken had a penalty saved in the 68th minute, and the former champions were struggling in attack with only seven shots, compared to 18 from their opponents. The majority of referee Tess Olofsson's calls also went against Germany, with only a few being correct. She called 50 fouls across 120 minutes -- but only showed five yellows -- making the game too stop and start for either team to really get going.” https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/45776906/germany-defy-odds-reach-euro-2025-semifinal-france-crash-yet-again What a fucking sentence! France is devolving into Un pays de merde! and their women’s team is a shining example of this. They are such trash. Really enjoyed seeing them lose to a 10 woman squad from Deutschland! A team of whiny cheating cunts.
  6. Dude was decent then.....
  7. Fucking username.
  8. Whoa. Try the decaf. I was agreeing with you.
  9. UNC is next to impossible from out of state. It also is an older campus that doesn’t show very well at this point. My oldest wanted to go to UNC up until sophomore year, but she wasn’t impressed with the tour and moved on quickly once we started touring.
  10. Stop talking to me like I’m 11 years old man. He wants to be in the marching band for many reasons, UT first but marching band regardless. He’s playing a meaningless high school fight song right now and loves it. It’s obviously multi faceted and as a parent third spaces and their impact on contentment and well being are my primary concern as he moves into college. Band is an ideal third space.
  11. I had a great time. I'll post a report in the fishing thread.
  12. This should be interesting.....
  13. No argument there, and if a kid grew up wanting to play The Eyes then obviously the USC band (or whatever) is going to be a poor substitute.
  14. Is Melton made out of eggshells?
  15. He needed Randy Smith. the whole thing with Tiger about changing his swing WHILE he was dominating got overblown and now people think you can really do that. If I told Woods he needed to drop his back foot away from the ball, flatten his swing, shake his ass, and tilt his shoulders more he'd still dominate because the key is the the last half a foot before his hands square with the club face at the ball. which is why Randy Smith never told Scottie he needed to look like Byron Nelson when he swung the golf club.
  16. “That ain’t no fake, that’s real. That’s why they call him Superman.” That’s Hunter Biden’s music!
  17. I’m betting on Boeing to win this battle.
  18. I saw Maiden at the frank Erwin center on thepoweslave tour. Best Maiden album imo.
  19. It's a good talking point to the THSCA, but I watched the entire talk he gave on youtube a bit ago. There were some other things said. The question was about this year's class, and how only ten of the 21 commitments are from the state of Texas. Sarkisian did a great job of answering the question, but the clear message in the entire Q&A was that Texas unapologetically was going to go after the best talent across the country. He acknowledged that agents have diminished the role of Texas high school coaches in the process, but he challenged coaches not to just give up their role as advisors and mentors. He challenged them to man up and be a part of the process rather than throwing up their collective hands and saying, "what can you do? It's all about the agents now." He talked about how it's not just about Texas keeping the best players in the state. There were a lot of instate programs players could go to. Then he pointed out that many of the best players in the state were leaving for programs outside of Texas. He had the standard "if I could recruit my entire team from the state of Texas I would" line, but the clear message is that's not the world we live in. He refused to get defensive about it, which is exactly right. The truth is this recruiting season is a sea change from how Texas has always gone about its business. I doubt we ever see 80% of UT's draft picks to the NFL being instate kids ever again in my lifetime. Sarkisian has made a clear investment in going after the best players wherever they are, with an emphasis on the southeast and California. It's not just the NIL dollars spent. Or the commitments. Or even the visits, although all of those are a huge part of it. The coaches are investing their time and resources in travelling all over the country - not just to see specific kids, but to build connections in the high school for players in the current recruiting class, as well as who might be someone to look for in future classes. That's when you know Texas is serious about this. They're not just putting a sack of money in front of the player. They're going out and cultivating relationships because they want people to know they're in it for the long haul. That's how you help protect your program from bad seeds that poison the locker room and/or force your hand where you have to pull the lever to the trap door to get them out of Austin.
  20. Trump is Fredo in Godfather II confessing that not only does he know Johnny Ola but that he parties with him.
  21. I want the league to succeed, BUT I hope the cash infusion/actual positive revenue flow happens AFTER most of these clowns are out of the league. I wish reporters would hammer them after every game and really drive home the point that the minority of people watching this league are fans of someone other than Clark or the Fever. Without Clark this league stays forever attached to the monetary infusion from the NBA. Nobody is tuning in to see these jealous clown frauds. I hope Clark sits out until the playoffs so we can once again get a reminder that Clark is the SOLE REASON for the attendance and ratings jump. These players are just not bright. This isn’t just jealousy. This is flat out stupidity with zero ability to read the room or the financials for that matter. Demanding money that is not there yet and then still trashing the only reason you have a shot at being financially solvent for the first time in league history is very on brand for this league.
