The majority. Barring some currently unknown element of the existing language preventing such a move, most schools will see fit to have their spring practices end in a spring game the first week of May. Any long term readers of this site and the others know that I am generally dismissive of the average intelligence within the coaching ranks. However, there are some bright ones and the rest are all copycatting lemmings. There is no logic supporting not moving things back outside of slightly mitigating injury risk to the future season. Coaches will figure out that the QB2 that they don't want transferring due to the QB battle from the spring will have a harder time pulling the transfer trigger without the prospect of immediate playing time. What will be achieved by being the program that goes early anyway? All teams will be actively following the portal irrespective of when they host spring practices. Pushing the timelines back past the decision date for immediate transfer eligibility means that any player locked into a position battle either has to see the competition through or pull the trigger to leave early. May 1 fundamentally skews in favor of the incumbent schools. I'm interested in hearing a non-reaching logic string to counter that premise. The minute I saw the May 1 date as the go-forward, my next thought was "well, just finish spring drills after that date then." I don't know though, maybe logic isn't on my side and I'm missing something obvious. As to a bet, this isn't communist USSR or Portland yet. I cannot force @SydneyCarton to do a damned thing. I'm not sure that dude and @shadow_operative have ever interacted on the boards. My invoking their intersection here, at your instigating, could quite possibly be galactically cataclysmic. The terms of my bet are simple. The loser has to write a realistic letter to Tom Herman, explaining to him the loser's appreciation and admiration of Herman as a visionary whose intelligence and creativity is poorly understood during his time. The winner has editing rights within reason. The correspondence will then be posted on this site or whatever the new version of this site is at the time. Loser has to act serious about his feelings for Fuckface and defend his honor on a new thread here with images of the letter posted. Those remembering the bet from this thread should shut the fuck up while clowns climb over each other to call the losing poster a motherfucker and such.15 points

I was astounded that ~66K voted against the idea that their fellow humans shouldn't be allowed to just camp out wherever they want, trashing public and private spaces, shooting drugs, shitting wherever they please, setting fires, etc. But then some feckless hipster wanders in here without a modicum of coherent thought and starts babbling about dick size and karens and race baiting and it makes more sense now. He's the modal denizen of those darker blue precincts.11 points

Are you fucking kidding me right now? They're solid teams, and people have been badly discounting ULaLa on the football board, but 3-0 is a perfectly reasonable expectation.10 points

These weren’t your typical police in a typical situation. Those were security personnel guarding people who were directly in the line of succession to the Presidency, and the regular cops had lost almost complete control of the Capitol at that point She wasn’t shot because she was rushing into an area with a bunch of interns and staffers. She was going through a fucking barricade setup by people trying to protect Pence and some of the Congressional leaders who were in line to the Presidency. She was a Qanon nut who got it in her head that this was The Great Storm and she had to do her part. This is literally the ultimate scenario of “fuck around and find out” This is up there with trying to rush the President, or trying to break into a restricted area of an Air Force base that has nuclear weapons, or onto a US Navy submarine. It’s a shame her family had to suffer through this, but they should be suing the assholes behind Q and Qanon and 8kun who filled the head of a mentally ill women with delusions.10 points

I've got no opinion about this specific kid but as a counterpoint, most big time college football HC are not exactly famous for their emotional intelligence when it comes to identifying depression and mental health needs of their players. The coaching fraternity isn't exactly a bunch of Ted Lasso's out there making sure everyone is taking the proper time for self-care.9 points

My issue with sarvanaash’s latest bout of whiny pussysquirting on this thread is simply the absurdity of “wishful thinking” being his starting point with Texas going 3-0 to open 2021. Could either Arkansas or Louisiana beat Texas? Sure. That’s been acknowledged on a lot of threads. Neither outcome is far more likely than a Texas win in both games. It’s just disingenuous nonsense. Arkansas will be a better team this year. Second year regime’s generally fair better. They also had injury issues. Is that going to happen at the early days of the season against a more talented Texas team? Seems like a tough row to hoe. Louisiana will be well-coached and they’ll have about half the talent. I worried about this game when I still thought Herman would be at Texas. I’ll view a loss to open the tenure at Texas for Sarkisian to be a complete and unacceptable failure.9 points

Awesome ratsnake SurlyBDR. Well, it was a very active day out in the Katy Prairie. I figured it would be a good day to go with all the rain that we had, but wasn't expecting all the flooding. It was cool to sit in my truck and look out at the clear water on the gravel road and see tons of crawfish, birds, snakes and large fish. In total I saw 14 snakes, 6 different species, one of which was a "lifer" (first time catching one). When I got there, I saw a couple of Ribbon Snakes, a Dekay's Brown Snake, some sort of Nerodia (I think a plain bellied watersnake) and a nice looking Broad Banded watersnake swam across the road in front of me. Homesickhorn and his son were on their way to meet me, so while I waited I just went back and forth on Snek Road. On one end I saved a couple of turtles from being roadkill. On the second one I noticed it had a leach on it. I don't recall ever seeing a leach growing up in the NW burbs of Houston. Turns out it is a Turtle Leach and only likes their blood. I started to head back to the beginning of the road to meet up with Homesick and came across a nice Texas Ratsnake. Maybe 3.5' long. He wasn't too fond of me. Then a little further down the road, after a watersnake tried to get up in my wheel well, I caught this Ribbon Snake and decided to hold onto it to show Homesick's son... After meeting up with them, we turned around and headed down the road. Within a few minutes we see a ribbon swimming and as we stop to show his son, Homesick spots another Dekay's Brown swimming next to the truck. A second later while we are looking at the snakes, a big fat Tilapia (we think it was) swims his ass across the road right in front of us. The water was barely deep enough. We head down the road and come to a dry patch on the road and see a snake. From afar I thought it was a big Ribbon Snake. We jump out and I grab it and discover it is a Graham's Crayfish Snake. First one I have ever caught or even seen live in person. We were stoked. We all needed to head out, Homesick lead the way... A ways down the road, I see him swerve to avoid something, and it turns out to be a Cottonmouth. Not but 25 yards away I saw a second one. Both were juveniles. here was the first one... Not but maybe another mile up the road, at a stop sign I come across this little shit. Really, I sat it on the bedcover and it shat itself and rolled around in it. Glad I was wearing gloves. First Hognose of the year...9 points

So tired of hearing the “I’m fiscally conservative and socially liberal” bullshit. Just admit that you’re just an asshole. And go fuck yourself with your both sides bullshit. Republicans are now a fascist cult worshipping a limp orange 7 times bankrupt god.8 points

Getting back to the topic, I don't think "wokeness" is a problem. Dems won both senate seats in Georgia and Biden won by 7 million. That doesn't sound like a "woke' problem to me. If people want to say Latinx instead of Hispanic, who gives a shit. You think wokeness is a major problem or is the party with insurrectionists, radical right wing politicians in Congress, and who think a free and fair election was sToLeN fRoM tRuMp is the major problem. Dems don't have a "wokeness problem." They have a radical Republican problem. Dems have always had a problem controlling a message and instead letting radical Republicans control the message instead. It doesn't help that Fox News is radicalizing people left and right as well. I also find it funny that radical Republicans go out of their way to use the term "woke" all the time--cruz and cotton seem to use it the most. I just want to ask them what they think "woke" means and what specifically are they against? I also want to ask them why they use that word when no one uses that word anymore.8 points

I don't know if they know it's fake or believe it's real. I do know that they aren't interested in any facts that prove that what they believe isn't real, though. I've told this story before, but my mother used to send me the FW:FW:FW:FW:FW: emails. I started replying all to every one of them with a link that showed that the story she was sending me was created in a bullshit factory. She did not quit sending out those FW:FW:FW:FW emails to a 100 people, she just quit sending them to me. I changed exactly 0 of her opinions because I fact checked the BS she was sending out. I doubt I changed the opinion of anyone else she was sending that stuff to as well. The last time we talked, I told her that the insurrection completely changed my outlook on the BS I'd been hearing from my whole family for the last 20 years, and while before I humored them or changed the subject, or had successfully gotten some of them not to talk about it in front of me anymore, I was now in a place where I already know what the family thinks, and I'm struggling to find a way to care about people so fundamentally opposed to what the US stands for that they would be willing to throw away our democracy over a fucking con man. Since I hadn't figured that out yet, that's the reason she hasn't been hearing from me. She's on notice that she needs to do some thinking about whether her believing lies is more important than maintaining a good relationship with me. Thats was a few weeks ago and I haven't talked to her again since then, so I guess I have my answer.8 points

I once thought like this, and understand where it comes from. Lower taxes and less regulations sounds good. It sounds responsible. it makes sense. Why wouldn’t I want to keep more money? Who likes red tape? In layman terms, spending beyond ones means is irresponsible. I have to balance my checkbook, so should the government. The reality is this viewpoint is a fallacy. Why? There are no fiscally conservative political parties. Bill Clinton might be considered the only “fiscally conservative” President in the past 100 years, but that was a bit of luck. He had control of Congress the first 2 years and passed a big stimulus and raised taxes on the rich (what Biden is trying to do now), but then Republicans had control the last 6 years so he couldn’t spend anymore. This one time stimulus preceded and helped usher in the tech boom economy and with high taxes on the rich, led to a surplus. His repeal of glass-steagall led to the Great Recession in 2008. Because regulations are created for good reason. We don’t allow chop blocks in football because it leads to injury. The Glass-Steagall act of 1933 prohibited banks from investing in risky securities (like sub-prime mortgages) because we didn’t want the banks to fail from being greedy assholes and cause the Great Depression again. And of course, history repeated itself. Unlike last time, thankfully smart fiscal policy people stepped in and the public bailed out the banking system. there are a million more example why regulations are a good thing. Don’t get me wrong, some regulations need to be more efficient, or modified or overhauled. A fiscally responsible policy means high taxes and cut spending. No political party believes in both of those. I’m not saying it’s not a good policy, it should be implemented at times, but when people say I’m “fiscally conservative” they usually mean cut spending and lower taxes, which just increases debt, and is not actually fiscally responsible.7 points

Talked the wife into converting our very sparsely used family room into a bar. Surprised the shit out of me when she said yes, only cost me a new living room set. Always a hidden agenda. But so far, the room is coming together quite nicely. Just waiting on a media cabinet for under the tv and a bar that’s coming mid June.7 points

This. There are some, indeed, who are "experiencing homelessness". I've met them, cooked for them, clothed them, washed dishes for them, etc. Then there are a bunch of others who are simple fucksticks who prey and thrive off of guilt. They are shit stains. They are aggressive. They are the ramoras of society and the one thing they shouldn't be is coddled and felt sorry for. They aren't experiencing homelessness, they strive for it. ATX has been a big, fat hunting ground for them courtesy of other shit stains - the enablers. They'll be here in just a minute to emote over this post.7 points

Y'know, Cabo Steve more or less rightly gets a lot of barfback on this, but "Li'l Casar" is the main culprit in this shitbag (now turbo-flushed) ordinance. It was he in June 2019 who wanted to ramrod this thing through, despite some councilmembers' hesitancy, wanting to postpone the vote for at least 2-3 months to study more solutions. But Li'l Casar wouldn't have any of it. He pushed it up for a vote, and in typical Casar fashion, pontificated while blaming it on leaders who, uh, had nothing to do with it in the first place. From Austin Chronicle, June 28, '19: https://www.austinchronicle.com/news/2019-06-28/council-dials-back-laws-targeting-homeless/ | "A stain on my conscience." Aww, how poetic. Sounds like Fitlump from the other side of the aisle. Sanctimonious crap. You don't think like I think? You are morally inferior to me! Bow to my moral GREATNESS! Blow it out your ass. Anyway Adler's getting all the shit, but it was Casar who steamrolled this thing in and the only comment he has so far is a blah blah blah roto-tweet on "we all want to get people into homes." Duh. He needs to be called out onto the carpet, too. Greggy, that's not why people shot your little prop down; it was because they're sick and tired of the dirt, repulsive manners (remember when Greggy said it'll all be good, y'know, because aggressive panhandling (and assaulting people) is still illegal, and y'know the police will serve justice! (I had a good laugh at that one). But the biggest irony is the jackass that rammed this through and croaked about "needing to fix it" hasn't fixed shit. And all he could muster is some halfass tweet in the face of burying his activist ideas into the shit that's found in many areas now in Austin. And This from 2019, AAS: https://www.statesman.com/news/20190621/city-council-rescinds-measures-that-critics-say-criminalize-homelessness Again, Casar, sponsored this... While Adler went along for the love-ride. Also, I love how he repeats the mantra at the time... "We haven't fixed everything yet." Nor ever did. My point is that Casar is a power-hungry faux saint - that his moral stances are the right ones, and there is no room for disagreement. And if he has to shanghai the entire city to see his views manifest, well, that's just a product of the morally inferior either suffering necessarily to eventually make life fantastic, or the morally superior knowing how everyone else should act. Even in this loss of his little experiment all he could muster was a clouded, self-egotistic filter which was another misrepresentation of why this idiotic ordinance went down in flames. But he'll be back espousing another self-aggrandizing intolerant project soon, so he won't fail to deliver soon. There are two kinds of homeless people: those who need help and those who need a kick in the nuts. I wish every day (especially when I drive by one of Casar's beautiful campsites) that both would get their just desserts. But Casar did nothing, nothing with that dumbass ordinance except make himself feel better that his little utopian view of the world could happen. And now its 10X worse than it ever was. Casar for Mayor!!!6 points
