  1. Past hour
  2. I mean, I guess we will just have to agree to disagree about where we are at right now. Everyone knows that you are a soft touch and willing to overlook pretty apparent problems because you want to "trust the corches" I hope I'm wrong. Still think 10-2 or 11-1 is more probable than any other outcome but I want to see them start playing to a standard on offense sooner rather than later b/c eventually it will matter. I'm wound up b/c I truly believe this is the best chance, by far, of winning a national title since 2008/09. I'm grading on a curve with high expectations on this team, and maybe that's unfair.
  3. So. You literally take the position that a university in the State of Texas should be at the very least subject to suit and litigation if a teacher chooses to include "A Song of Achilles" (a retelling of the story presuming a homosexual relationship) in a class? Jesus fucking Christ, full-on Stasi thought-police shit. The fact that someone is saying "well, it's an open question" as to whether even including a book with gay characters in the curriculum violates the law....that is beyond fucked.
  4. Oh that explains it. I read a lot as a kid. No wonder
  5. tl/dr - Bullies either get their noses bloodied, or keep stealing your lunch.
  6. There won't be elections if the GQP isn't stopped.
  7. If they had segregation, every time black people started to succeed, we would have the new Klan and bombings. They would take over land for new highways (“racist highways”) and make sure they never were successful. And then complain that they need to be eliminated. This always starts with separation.
  8. I like our current game plan. 1st down 2 yards run after hit in backfield 2nd down false start 2nd down run for 5 yards 3rd down incomplete 50 yard pass Punt
  9. I know you didn’t mean it to come across this way, but what the fuck is “the transgender issue?” It’s not an issue. There are transgender people in the world. It’s just a fact like the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. People who don’t accept this fact should be ridiculed for being the morons that they are.
  10. Reading books is gay ergo illegal. Quid quo pro.
  11. Tex 49 UTEP 7 Total yards 280
  12. I was a wee lad, but in high school at the end of Reagan's time, and while I have no doubt some yuppies/College Republicans may have worshipped him, as a kid, I felt he was more about "AMERCA FUCK YEAH!" Obviously he did some really shitty stuff, but he was not out there basically asking people to worship him. He wouldn't have tried to have a military parade focused on praising him. And he was damned sure not out there portraying Democrats as some kind of parasite that needed to be eradicated - hell, he was close friends with Tip O'Neil and quite a few other Democrats. Unlike Trump, Reagan didn't pretend to have always been a Republican and didn't shun his friends going back to when he was a Democrat. He would certainly spar with them when it came to policies, but at the end of the day, he'd have no problem hanging out with them.
  13. A (literally) big recruit was here last weekend. The WBB team had a front row view of Moody getting WILD for volleyball
  14. Yeah, machete dude was a one-off nutbar. And from the people I know who use the trails regularly, they are no more or less "safe" than they were some years ago. Running around in poorly lit areas with lots of places people can hide makes people nervous, and rightly so. But the number of crimes committed on the trail hasn't materially changed, from what I understand.
  15. Jesus Christ himself could be reincarnated to run against the GQP in Texas and get his ass kicked by 10%. I honestly don't think it matters who the dems run, as nobody on a democratic ticket can do anything to win it. The only path forward will be the GQP actively and enthusiastically fucking over Texans so badly that they lose the votes. And things will have to get a hell of a lot worse, and probably for another 20 years, before thats a reality. Its been since the early 90's that Texas dems have won a statewide election of significance, and Richards wouldn't have won that without ole Claytie shoving his foot up his own ass with that "lay back and enjoy it" comment. And things are now so much worse. William's comments today would probably be good for a 10% boost.
  16. Brazil got “CONCACAF-ed” in La Paz last night. Brazil chief: 'We played against referees and police' vs. Bolivia Adriana Garcia Sep 10, 2025, 11:17 AM Brazil's Football Federation president Samir Xaud spoke of the adversities his national team encountered in their 1-0 defeat against Bolivia in Tuesday's World Cup qualifier, stating "we played against the referees, the police and the ball boys." The five-time World Cup winners, who had already secured a spot in next year's tournament, lost their first game under coach Carlo Ancelotti at El Alto. Miguel Terceros converted a penalty in the first-half of stoppage time after VAR review, a result that allowed Bolivia to advance to the playoff tournament for the 2026 World Cup in the final round of qualifying. "We came to play soccer, and what we saw from the moment we arrived was a completely anti-game," Xaud said. Ancelotti was unimpressed by the officiating and was captured on camera having words with the referees as they entered the tunnel at the interval. Xaud and Ancelotti both criticised the ball boys after the game and accused them of wasting time. Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti was not happy with the refereeing as his side fell 1-0 to Bolivia. Buda Mendes/Getty Images Balls were thrown onto the pitch in the last stages of the game to disrupt Brazil's attacks. "Officials have to control that," Ancelotti said. "Not players, coaches, or the president." Xaud added: "Even at this altitude of 4,000 meters, we played against the referees, the police, and the ball boys, who were taking the balls off the field and putting them on the field. It was a real mess. This isn't what we expect for world football or South American football. What we want is to grow even further. "This kind of attitude, especially when playing at altitude, is difficult. I hope CONMEBOL takes action, precisely because we have everything recorded. This can't happen; it's absurd." Xaud was also "outraged" by how local police treated their delegation since their arrival in Bolivia but offered no details. "The police were horrible against the entire team, the entire coaching staff," he said. "It's something we don't expect. We welcome all the teams very warmly, we embrace them. We put everything at their disposal, and when we play outside of Brazil, especially here, the reception we receive here is absurd. I'm outraged." Brazil ended the campaign fifth in the standings, with 28 points, their worst finish in their World Cup qualifying history. Against Bolivia, Ancelotti, who took charge of the national team in May following the sacking of Dorival Junior, made numerous changes to the side that beat Chile 3-0 last week. Despite the loss, Ancelotti preferred to focus on the positives. "That [World Cup] is the goal," Ancelotti said. "I think we'll do well in the World Cup… 👇 Full Story https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/46213750/brazil-chief-played-referees-police-vs-bolivia
  17. It’s deliberate a deliberate gray zone probing action, designed entirely to see how NATO and the president will respond. Early returns— weakly. Let’s see the outcome of the Article 4 mechanism (which is a fairly big deal to invoke) and what kind of unity emerges. Either way, some other type of escalation from Russia is likely.
  18. I think it was tongue in cheek, but that was mentioned today by Neuheisel. Stockton has only attempted 4 passes that were longer than 10 yards. If Tennessee can't beat this Georgia team, they never will.
  19. Holy shit you got 19 negs for being normal
  20. waaaaaaaaaay to many POC and queer birds on that stage to take texas back from the reds flocking from out of state. native texans probably say sure but that's not the electorate anymore. ain't happening.
  21. meh, they would fail again, only this time the other half would gladly let them go and watch them become the next East Germany.
  22. Bryan Abreu has entered a game in the 9th inning 14 times this season - this was the 5th time he's allowed multiple runs in those games. He's entered a game in the 7th or 8th inning 50 times this season - he's allowed multiple runs in those games just 1 time. #Astros
  23. let's face it, the only ace card the dems can truly play is a celebrity to combat the reality TV mush for brains in the electorate. mcconaughey is probably it for the texas dems if he were to ever want it. other than that, yeah no there is no great dem candidate or strategy. there just isn't.
  24. I see the usual suspects are once again acting like downtown Austin is Kabul. I live in Houston and I bet I visit downtown Austin more often than that crowd.
