  1. Inside Texas does a great job. Those guys have earned the trust of the program by working really hard and not fucking things up like Ketchum and FCB love to do regularly. I hope Bobby gets the recognition he deserves one day, because he has made a significant impact on Texas football for the better. Eric is a good dude, and I'd have a lot bigger bank account if I worked as hard as Gerry.
  2. He's been terrible at 3rd base all year, but the non challenge with Hodo is beyond explanation. Especially considering he had a great view.
  3. Anyone else pay for the ad free segments on Overcast? I pay 10 bucks a month for the OMG segments, I've always hoped that kind of thing would buoy the station but maybe its doing the opposite by showing which shows/segments actually drive non ad related revenue? The idea of the Ticket starting to circle the drain has officially depressed me at least until lunch. Its such a strange phenomenon and its not easily explained why they have this loyal following. The musers are starting to lose their fastball and I think Ive just been in denial. It seems to me Gordo is interested in discussing deeper topics and wading into politics, and I actually think he can connect with an audience there. It's just not why I listen. My job and my life are plenty complicated and serious, I go to the ticket for an escape from all of that. But I think thats Gordo's whole point when he says entertainers get pigeon holed, they have these creative minds that want to explore new things but their audience just yells for more fake jerry and breast feeding bits.
  4. I think Sark got to let his nuts hang on this one from a football and numbers standpoint. Scouts already compare Addison to Devonta Smith. Like you said, from what it sounds like to me if Addison chooses USC it’s because he wants to team up with Williams. I think Sark beat Riley in the head coaching matchup.
  5. Perception and reality are starting to crash into each other on this NIL stuff. The numbers being thrown around for guys like Addison are way overblown. It’s very difficult to get money together in a timely fashion for these one off situations that pop up. Riley had some business backed NIL deals lined up for Addison. What he didn’t understand is that Austin absolutely plays in the same space as LA on that front. (Lambo being a prime example). However, he overestimated his ability to get $$$ on top of that from his donors. Im told our situation has more to offer. If he chooses USC, it will be football related, not other stuff
  6. It’s not about credit. I’ve just put enough of my own time and money into this stuff, that I’m going to respond when someone is saying I haven’t done anything. And on the topic of credit, I’ve spent a portion of that time recently singing y’all’s gospel, and have gone out of my way to applaud not just your efforts and the merit of your structure, but the smart direction it’s going to push the future of the sport. What set me off, is comments like “at this point you’re just stupid if you’re not compliant”. Or “you can’t buy a championship.” Or having the ignorance to defend Plonsky at all. Those just aren’t true statements, and mixed with yesterdays Plonsky stuff and a healthy hangover, I made the mistake of trying to defend what shouldn’t even be discussed on here. I admire you and CTJ a ton. The team Plonsky chuds can eat a dick though.
  7. Done, but a bunch of it is quoted.
  8. Casey Appleblack made me laugh so hard my wife asked me if I took a gummy. The absurdity of defending that guy is so over the top that I actually appreciate the novelty of it.
  9. College football is just a battle of resources. That’s a battle we can win, and I would take great pleasure in seeing us do so.
  10. It’s CFC that’s on it. You’d know better than me if they’re capable of matching but I was just told by a mutual friend that we are indeed in the mix.
  11. Was just told the staff has been way ahead on this one thanks to Marion. We are in the mix boys.
