  1. Past hour
  2. I was like 7 or so on one of our family visits to Mexico, and I ordered a glass of OJ at some little restaurant. It was great, and I asked my mom why OJ tasted so great in Mexico. “That’s because they only serve fresh OJ here honey.” Huh. “Why don’t you serve fresh OJ at home?” She just glared at me, and continued to serve that frozen glop for the rest of my childhood.
  3. NSIAP On 4/19, Lake Travis was 41.6% full at 457k acre-feet. On 6/19, Lake Travis was 44.3% full at 486k acre-feet. Today, Lake Travis is 89.2% full at 979k acre-feet. Lake Travis has added 160 billion gallons of water in the past 30 days. 170 billion since April.
  4. i just watched Real Steel predictable but well done and fun
  5. There are some hard decisions to potentially be made in the next 12 days. Do we trust our medical staff enough to honestly tell us when everyone will potentially be back? What will they be like if and when they come back? Does Yordan play like Yordan this year? The grownup conversation needs to be had that we have had some good baseball luck on the field so far but the tide could be shifting. If Yordan is Yordan and we get another bat and everyone comes back, I’m all for full speed ahead. If there’s any doubt on Yordan or anyone else, we owe it to ourselves to at least listen to what some desperate team may offer for Framber. Keeping Framber to potentially miss the playoffs or be an easy out sets us back 3 years if/when he leaves. One draft pick is nothing. The Tucker trade has opened my eyes as to how it could help keep us keep rolling for another 3-5 years by adding 2-3 top players now. We will still have a solid core next year but the farm is still weak as hell. Adding a starter and a prospect or two would help. I’m not advocating we must trade him. Flags fly forever and if Dana can add the pieces to make us a serious contender then let’s go. But I would also like to be in this position for the foreseeable future and an influx of talent would help. People lose their freaking minds at the mere mention of trading Framber. I get it. Fans gonna fanatic. I’d rather keep him too. People thought the world was ending when we traded Tucker and lost Bregman. But I don’t think maybe moving Framber makes us sellers. I think we could do both at the same time and contend this year and in future with trades. I’m not sure Dana has the ability or authority to get that creative. I’d love to see what Luhnow would do in this situation. At the end of the day, I’m a fan of the name on the front of the jersey not the back. Let’s hope this is just a two or three week lull and we get going again soon. I hate losing. Just one man’s opinion. Flame away.
  6. But it’s also really really fast
  7. For real. Clinging onto the Pogi group through sheer tyranny of will.
  8. Which is exactly why we need sirens. If it were up to Meta they would find a way to sell each land/home owner their own personal flood gauge and set of sirens.
  9. Fucking Healy man. What a ride

  11. I got a kid who just graduated UT Nursing (all 4 years) and then one of my twins is headed to UTSA this fall on CAP with designs on either Economics or McCombs if he can pull off that trick. He had plenty of other options but he was pretty much ride or die with Texas (his nickname on his HS baseball team was Bevo) We live in DFW and seems like a lot of CAP kids up here try to land UTA but he was deadset on being closer to the mothership Two things for those of you talking about UTSA for CAP that I can share so far: 1 It may not quite be a “buying Taylor Swift tickets when they come out” situation but it isn’t far off. CAP spots at UTSA are very limited and were gone in a matter of a couple minutes when the CAP agreement opened this spring. This past spring that was 6pm on a Friday night in early March so you need to be prepared for that going in. 2. On the 30 hours. Unlike most of the other CAP schools UTSA requires you to take it in this order. 6 hours summer, 9 hours fall, 15 hours spring. Summer is online (my son actually started college the last 4-5 days we were in Italy) so not like your kid has to be in SA but again something to factor in. Also consider a fall load of 9 hours isn’t exactly “busy” so talk with your kiddo about how to manage and make best use of time.
  12. The other thing about Mike Leach that some forget is the fact he installed the offense at OU that won the national champsionship for them in 2000 under Mangino as OC, and led to their Big 12 success for so many years.
  13. Great, now I have Paul Simon circulating in my brain…
  14. What’s cool to me is NEARLY every event Scottie has played in the last two years every player is cognizant of him and where he is on the leaderboard. That’s dominance 🤘🏼Would love to also see Speith have a resurgence. At some point. Scottie is just next level.
  15. Astros 25 mid season recap. Some highlights, some extreme lowlights Exciting new comers, some we wished they never came. Injuries, trades baffling personnel decisions, lineups that are beyond ridiculous. Fanbase that is now opining over Drayton Mclane and Jose Abreu…. Death threats, suicide watches this is the fan base we have always been. Go Stros…. at this point just make it entertaining losing first place is gonna hurt. Just don’t lose the lead to the suck ass Mariners or Rangers
  16. Fun thread, kudos for starting it. Judkins was viewed as a cancer or at least a prick and they did not work to retain him. Kiffin said good riddance on twitter. You can like Finkley and Crawford all you want, but they were not guys we tried to retain. They were flawed players who were never going to be anything here other than a teeener and a special teams demon. Terrence Brooks sucked and it did not hurt to lose him. The guy and his dad came to Texas asking for more money and we laughed and said good luck. He’d already lost his starting job to Muhammad by the end of his last season. in regards to the overall conversation, I think damn near every guy we’ve gotten was someone the other team wanted to retain. Ok, maybe not all of them. Norton and the other DT two years ago who sucked, but Norton ended up being a great pickup. Watson from Syracuse, Brevard, Endries, Matthew Golden, Isiah Bond, even Duke Catalon, all were viewed as big time gets to varying degrees as well as all the other folks mentioned.
  17. Next one on the 90s Essentials. Is this inappropriate to watch with your 17 year old child, maybe. I saw it when I was 18. The 4K really shows off a lot of the gory details like the aftermath of Stuck In The Middle With You. The 4K steelbook is fairly amusing.
  18. Ya I'm tired of rolling this dog shit line up out.
  19. Maybe he meant to say “Cooper’s,” as in BBQ.
  20. I don't recall every guy who's on LIV now, but right now this is what I see on the leaderboard Hatton -5 (tied for 8th) DJ - 3 (tied for 24th) Bryson, Rahm -2 (tied for 32nd) Sergio, Westwood E (tied for 51st) Mickelson +1 (tied for 59th)
  21. Lots of birdies out there. Scottie is going to have to play well to maintain his lead.
  22. Thanks for the insight on Rogan. At 20 minutes, he hadn't even woken up, but at the half hour mark he started engaging, and I see the appeal of the long form interview. Ultimately, Rogan was agreeable, but he threw out some really broad and silly generalizations. I think Talarico may be too good and kind of this political world. I was a bit disappointed that he didn't push back on a few issues. He just seemed to accept Rogan's statements that cancel culture should be blamed exclusively on the left and that the Dems are anti-patriotism and anti-male. But maybe that's just Rogan being engaging and Talarico trying to set an example so more left-wing folks go on the show. To that extent, Talarico was fantastic.
