  1. Crazy considering Johansson played like 5 games for us. I meant "crazy" in a good way. And, yes, I know AJ played more than 5 games.
  2. Loss to a lower seed. What do I win?
  3. Paint me shocked. Trooper was a dirty, cheating mofo when at Tennessee. I heard some stuff about him back then.
  4. Beware the Ides of March Barnes.
  5. I liked it. It's kind of a cross between the cheesiness/suspect acting of Scarface and the well acted/well written Narcos. Just about to finish up The Signal. It's a German series w/ 4 episodes. Other than all the plot holes, it's not bad.
  6. 1. Victory 2. We Are Marshall 3. The Sandlot 4. Friday Night Lights 5. The Rookie
  7. Chris Richards was partially responsible for giving up a 96th minute goal to Luton Town just now. It was a last-second ball into the box. His mark scored, though, it could have been a zone mark. I'd be effing furious if I was a CP fan. The mids and forwards were hotdogging it during added time. There was no concern for ball control and/or running the clock. They were too busy doing backheels, trick passes, and trying to score. They ended up turning the ball over, which led to the goal.
  8. Finally caught up. A lot of unlikeable players in this version. The loser tribe had/has a guy that couldn't even remotely back up his mouth, the most useless player of all time, and an Indian dude that may be batshit crazy. Good luck with that.

    Getting old sucks

    My wife and my work wives (the teachers at school) have been bitching at me to quit for years. I play on Sundays, then limp until about Thursday. Just as I'm feeling good again, next game up. Problem is I don't like to exercise. I just like to compete. If I quit soccer, it's not like I'll take up jogging, yoga, or some other form of healthy activity. I'll just get fat. Luckily for me, teaching requires me to be on my feet for 12,000+ steps a day, which helps.

    Getting old sucks

    Yep. I'm still playing soccer after all these years. Metallic knees and all. I can't walk away just yet. First game this past Sunday. I hadn't done a ton of preparation/exercise over the past 3 months, so I was worried about how my body would react. Turns out, it wasn't an issue. I pinched a nerve in my neck the morning of, picking up my soccer bag. On the IR before getting into the car.
  11. You're missing the best part of the paradox. Texas underutilized all this talent v. Texas will suck next year because they lost so much talent.
  12. Too soon. I very distinctly recall listening to that game in some random apartment off Riverside.
  13. I mean, I guess. One game. I get it. But 10 should generally get you a win v a directional school. /Kind of drunk at the Dallas Irish Festival
  14. If it hits his glove going toward the line, then lands 6 inches foul, it's fair. Physics.
  15. Yeah. That was ridiculous. When she was on the far side during the beginning of the 2nd half, Disu was constantly getting mugged. Then on the other end, touch fouls.
  16. I would think so, but (hypothetically; not expectedly) losing the final 3 on our schedule would not be ideal.
  17. I mean, it really is like watching city league, rec ball. No plan. Just hope a couple of players shoot lights out.
  18. Randomly saw this movie with my family just before heading to UT. I didn't really get the movie. At the end, I saw my father cry. The only time in my entire life I've ever seen him cry, and he wasn't some sort of ex-Marine, machismo guy either. He just never shows emotions unless the Cowboys fuck up a game. Turns out, this was essentially his family growing up in the Texas panhandle. Now that I'm older and "get" life more, I completely understand the scene.
