Not sure how this isn’t in the national news, let alone the texas news but there is a giant fucking wreck on 35 south in Jarrell. @immamac is currently stuck in it. The shit isn’t moving, he’s been stuck for damn near 5 hours and now the roads are iced over completely. Things won’t un freeze there till Friday at this point. This definitely needs attention, there’s a TON of people completely stuck with no way out. Try to get as many eyes on this as possible. There are a lot of people in dire need right now especially as people run out of gas..

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the road to degeneracy.  Without having to reinvent the wheel, and then writing a book about reinventing the wheel, i'll just sprinkle some starter yeast and, like a beautiful acid trip, we'll see where it  takes us....

Why options trading

Leverage.  You can control a lot more stock for $.


Flexibility.  You can play any sentiment - bullish, bearish, neutral - and you can pick and choose the risk-reward!  Instead of just choosing a safe vs risky stock, for any given stock, you can choose how much you want to lever its movement.


Engagement.  Options have an element of time expiration in their construction, which obliges you to stay in (somewhat) active and engaged in the market.



What are options

These are contracts that grants the contract holder the right (but not the obligation) to buy or sell 100 units of stock at an agreed price, before a certain date.


It has these elements: Strike price, Expiration date


Call option - contract holder can buy ABC stock from contract seller.  option buyer "calls" the shares away from sellers' account


Put option - contract holder can sell ABC stock to contract seller.  option buyer "puts" the shares in sellers' account.


Options are tradeable instruments like units of stocks.  For our practical purposes, we don't really worry about the above (yet).  We buy when cheap and sell when high.  Or sell when high and buy when cheap.



How do you price options?  (i.e. what is cheap?)

If you're a nerd, you'd invoke the Black-Scholes equation.  If, like me, you failed 9th grade trig, you can think of it in more simple abstract terms:


options premium = Intrinsic Value + Extrinsic Value = (Strike$-Stock$)+(Volatility*Time)





Take Apple, which is 135$ right now.  How much would you pay to have the right to purchase shares of Apple for $130/share at anytime....

before the end of the week?

Boobs Heupel?
 

They’re going to have to change it to Floppy Top. Or Sloppy Top. 
 

When PJ Fleck went to Minnesota, ESPN did the docu-series “Being PJ Fleck.” They should do one on Heupel called “Becoming Mark Mangino.” He’s well on his way.

Abolish the Fax
Seriously, why is this still a thing? I can think of a dozen ways to send documents or files in a more efficient and workable fashion. Twice this week already I've faced issues with fax machines. My new mortgage company has to fax the form for auto debit but my office fax system isn't working right. I can't get a hold of a human to talk to  for a request to just fucking email it or even snail mail. Now on another deal someone faxed something that isn't legible so I'm having to go through multiple channels to get that person to fucking email it, which I thought was going to happen in the first place. Again, why...the...fuck...do...these...things...still...exist?

My dearest Surly assholes

Hot off the presses it's our newest season of the podcast. Have a listen as @RGBIII and I discuss the firing of Tom Herman, the Hiring of Steve Sarkisian, the Assistant Coaches we are targeting or have already hired and much more!

This thread will serve as a discussion and as general feedback for the podcast. There will be another thread for a "mailbag" on ideas we can incorporate for future episodes. 

Hope you enjoy this as much as we did recording it.

I guess I’ll go ahead and say it: Chris Ash can lick our collective asshole, pack his shit, and head for the state border. 

He was a fucking bum at Rutgers. Just complete trash in every way. He showed up here with his own brand of cronyism and mediocrity by imposing inexperienced trash on the program with the Valai hire. Valai immediately sprinted out and took a hogger-sized dump on the 50 yard line of the Texas program by being worthless as a coach and a nonentity in recruiting. 

Ash delivered vanilla ice cream competence. Nothing special or unique, just gave the defense a vague hint of average. Outside of some time under Meyer while surrounded by other star coaches, Ash has amounted to sad comedy at worst and meh-relevance at best. Hit the fucking bricks, buddy, we’ll take our chances in the open market.

We should not lose coordinators or positions coaches to any schools.  It's time Texas reminds the college football world we have more money than anyone.  If Bama, ND, or UGA is targeting Muschamp, offer him 3.5 mil (1 mil more than Venables) to be the highest paid DC in the country and tell him to give you an answer right then and there.  If you want Jeff Banks, double his salary from Bama.  Make him say no.  We raised all of this money and got turned down by Urban.  Well what's stopping us from buying the country's best coordinators, position coaches, and support staff?  Let Sark manage the offense and let Will manage the defense.  We're going to have to buy our way to success.  I'm done with coaches that need to learn on the job.  Get the best guys, period.  If they say no, make them an offer they can't refuse.  It's time we pull our dick out and show how big it is.  Let's see if other athletic departments, boosters, and schools will shell out the money we will in a pandemic.  Fuck those schools... let's fucking go...

Almost as unceremonious as his past 2 victories to finish off the season, Tom "the turtle" Herman has been removed as the head coach of the Texas Longhorns. 



 



We don't really wish you anything, but to get the hell out of here Tom.
