So, this was one of the worst days of my life. took my dad (who has a tbi and really wanted to go and was exited about it) Got stuck in traffic- he shit his pants - I tried to clean him up in the bathroom at the parking garage we got to and there was no garbage can or paper towels, he got the shit from his diaper all over himself and his shorts, refused to go home because he wanted to go to the game- walked around with feces all over his clothes, got him in his seat- went to 4 different shops until I found a pair of sweat shorts, came back up, cleaned him up in the bathroom, threw up, he walked out naked because he got scared I left him in the stall when I said “stay here I need more paper towels” then we got back to our seats and he said let’s go. With 6 minutes left in the 2nd quarter. the sights and smells and the like will be nightmare fuel (literally) for me that I will dream about for months and years I bet, but the worst part, by far, was seeing him just not get it and not able to handle basics in life or enjoy the game. When we pulled into the driveway he told me sorry for ruining your day. I was like dad- you didn’t ruin anything and I love you. Man’s taken me to at least 100 games and he remembers almost none of it. And my poor mom lives this 24/7. as bad as I guess we played I’m going to take solace in this not being the shit Sandwhich on top of a truly miserable day finishing with a loss. We are basically in survive and advance mode and although we were terrible it probably doesn’t matter. But, we probably have another loss or two coming our way, especially if Quinn is out.60 points

I missed the 8th while getting the kids ready for bed, but was able to see the TV for most of the 9th. Me: OH WOW! They got 2 on and Altuve is coming up to bat!! 4 year old: Is he the good hitter? Me: Yes, a very good hitter! 4 yo: Oh I hope he hits it very good then! ... Me: OH MY GOSH HE DID IT! AGAIN!!! HAHAHA *jumps around excitedly with kid in my arms* 4yo: So the Astros are winning now? Me: Yeah they are up 5-4! 4yo: So the bad guys are losing now? Me: Yes that's right! 4 yo: Oh because he's a very good hitter! Me: YES! 2 year old throughout this exchange: GO ASH-STROS! GO ASH-STROS! GO ASH-STROS! GO ASH-STROS! Fun times, still unbelievable it finished that way. I have a video clip of this I'm gonna save and share it with them when they are older and the Astros are on their way to their 12th World Series.17 points

My threads all suck and last about a day. I know that. I know someone will point out that this might fit on another thread. I don't care. I'm going full TexAgs here and starting a new thread for an unoriginal thought. But, Kicking a field goal is not "settling" for anything. It's scoring three points. Three points often come in handy. After today's ill-advised fake FG, I couldn't stop from doing the math and judging momentum. We'd have been leading at halftime. We'd have had a ten point lead at the end. Houston would have been down 24-0 having failed to stop us from scoring on four possessions. It would be looking hopeless. 28-0 might have seemed a little more hopeless, but the risk was not worth the reward. Sportscasters, very imaginitive people with fine minds, seize on a phrase like "they'll have to settle for the field goal" no matter the context. If some team is inside the five, first and goal, then yes, it is a victory for the defense at that point to prevent a touchdown. It's real tough football and deserves praise. But, even then, the offense still got three points. Points is good. Points early in the game hold untold value for the latest minutes of the game. Sark isn't the only one to do this. Herman's "I hate field goals" was almost as irritating as him letting it be known he was a member of Mensa. KICK THE FIELD GOAL. Your team gets to celebrate. The band plays the fight song. The fans applaud and hug. It's a tactical victory for you. It's a tactical defeat for the defenders. I hope Sark learns. I think he's a great coach with things to learn. We're a team with some weak spots. We need an edge rush. We need a few pieces in the secondary. We need this QB or another one to be more of a killer. I'm guessing we see Ewers here next year. I only hope it's a good thing.16 points

We are 6–1 with the easier half of the schedule on the books. Prior to the season, I thought this was a 9-3 team if we played well. I think we’ll end up 10-2 which will be the best season for us in damn head 14 years. This win sucked but I’ll take it. I’ve suffered enough shitty losses and seasons so I’m going to enjoy the fuck out this win. Hook ‘em.15 points

Posts like this crack me up. Texas almost lost to a really bad football team today. Holgo will likely get fired after this season and they aren’t making a bowl. This would have been an unthinkable loss, especially after being up 21-0 in the 1H.14 points

If its any consolation, I bet at least half a dozen Surly posters (and Sark) did the same. But fuck man, good on ya for taking care of your old man. Seriously.14 points

that spot saved our bacon, but literally on 2 of the massive Houston plays (the 2nd TD and the 50+ yard catch run + PF penalty) Burke was literally held from behind by both hands and then tackled 1 yard from the QB and the only dude in the backfield, no call, and our left edge rusher was being both held, and hands to the face'd which kept us from getting real pressure. BOTH of those plays should have been called back and neither were. so that spot is what makes up for all that bullshit14 points

Why are so many people complaining about Ewers play today? JFC this place is fucking weird. Pretty sure he didn't throw 3 pick sixes to let Houston back in it. He played solid, started out great and didn't get much help. His biggest mistake was trying to take on defenders trying to pick up a first down resulting in him getting hurt and yet so many in here want to burn him at the cross. Get a life pussies.13 points

They were supposedly pissed off coming into the game. Too bad our pussy ass coach took his foot off the throttle like he always does and let Houston back in the game.12 points

Flynn’s military service, and especially his terminal rank, brand him among the top evil doers of election liars and insurrectionists. That the military has not sought to discipline him itself unsettles the fuck out of me. It also disturbs that someone can rise to the level of general while having such a flawed understanding of their oath, and of their duty, not to mention their professed religion. His death cannot come soon enough.12 points

This. The angle they kept showing on tv was from behind the play. The only way you could tell from replay if he got the first is if you had a view down the line. Fuck those clowns Brando and Tillman for their anti Texas bullshit all game long.11 points

It has to be said—this is a bad game between two pretty mediocre offenses. And I really appreciate Joel Klatt trying to dress this up, but it is just wildly unentertaining.11 points

Nothing about what I’ve seen from MM provides me confidence as a fan. It’s clear that he’s confident in himself, and that he has an absolute howitzer for an arm. Beyond that, what’s on the film is incomplete at best. The one pass he missed today is one Quinn makes in his sleep. Murphy threw a 4 seamer and I think it would have been a tough catch even if it were on target. Obviously it definitely wasn’t. I’m not writing him off, but I am completely puzzled by the coalition of fans that are convinced he’s ready to fuck shit up.10 points

Oh yeah, i knew what tbi is. My grandpa didnt have a tbi, but he had alzheimer's and basically reverted into being an infant again. My own dad had to do the kind of stuff you describe, it was simultaneously devastating and beautiful to watch. Obviously its so sad what is going on, but seeing a son love and protect and take care of their father just like their father did to them when they were young and vulnerable is witnessing what makes humans special. That you are there for your dad now is evidence that he was a good man in how he raised you. Im sure your mom is incredibly proud of you, and she should be. One thing to remember: you dont need higher level brain function to understand and feel love. Even dogs can understand love. Your dad 100% can feel your love to him, and im sure it means everything.10 points

How about Jon Singleton? Shortened a promising career because he likes smoking pot too much. Gets back to the MLB after years away, and in his first post season at bat, pinch hitting, gets the all important walk in the 9th. It could end up as his only playoff appearance. even the call to pinch hit Diaz for Pena was unexpected. I expected Pena to hit and THEN pinch hit Diaz for Maldonado. Why not switch it up, and take out the struggling reigning WS MVP. The easy coaching decision was to play it safe but why give Texas what was expected.10 points
