  1. “Sarge” incarnate.
  2. That’s me, dude! 🤘🏼
  3. I have no idea what rep actually gets you, but I AM JUST AS PISSED OFF WE DON'T GET MOAR!!!!!! Also, this class seems to have potential to "Fuck." and I'm very gruntled. 🤘 ps - suck it aggy.
  4. Ok, point taken. Let's consider this as if it was a job offer, because that's basically what it is. There are always going to be candidates that will or won't accept travel as part of the job. Those that won't usually don't apply and if they do are not likely to get out of the travel. A good hiring manager will discuss that part of the position with the candidate before the offer is even made. That being said, it may be a point of contention, but it's a small point and not one that most in line to accept the offer would care about. Ask a 18-22 year old kid if they'd mind traveling around the country doing what they love for the next 3-4 years on someone else's dime and see if they have an issue with it. Let us know what you find out.
  5. She’s a smoke show! 🤘🏼
  6. Holy shit this is funny!! 🤣🤘🏼
  7. Rinse, Repeat. Honestly, as a fan, you kind of have to unless you just completely give in and leave.
  8. This first screenshot made me legit lol, so thanks for that, random 247 poster. The second one that was just a few posts away from the one that made me lol is the chef's kiss of their delusion. Let's break it down... Having a former HC on staff will motivate the current HC to do better. Has this really ever happened? It's possible, but I would expect this to be the exception to the rule. It's not likely that a former HC is going to push the current HC, unless the former HC is young and motivated. We know that in most cases, former HC up in years do not suddenly find that fire they had, particularly when they have plenty of money in the bank. Also, HC's have huge egos and could give a shit what their assistant coach thinks they should do. The former HC will be motivated to get another head coaching position. Actually, most former HC that are in the position that Petrino is in, are just happy to have a job in general. Like one of the posters said, this is a gift if they hire Petrino, and Petrino knows it. Dude will smile all the way to the bank, just like Jimbo is doing. Plus, Petrino is 61 and Kiffin is 47. IT's not that big in the grand scheme, but that is a world of difference in the coaching profession and to recruits. Not sure why everyone is getting their panties in a twist if they hire Petrino. See reasons listed above, but honestly it's because those people realize the implications and writing on the wall. College football is moving at the speed of light, at the moment, and this hire has the potential to keep their program down even longer. I have an aggy buddy that keeps telling me Jimbo understands he HAS to make a change or else. I asked him what the "or else" means since Jimbo doesn't have to do a thing and will still get paid either way, and he says that the people in charge will start to apply pressure. So, I ask what will that do? How would you motivate Jimbo or apply pressure if you were A&M AD? "Well, you just got to tell him... that we have higher expectations for his teams and outcomes." Again though, what is his motivation to do something or better? Reputation, maybe? Crickets.
  9. In most instances it doesn't matter, but sometimes it does, and it's really nice to have it when you need it. There's good reasons some don't make it at more prestigious programs, and sometimes those reasons manifest themselves during trials/negotiations. Back on track. Football is a sport The University of Texas participates in. 😁
  10. I see your point, but will say that this will only be the 2nd film in the series (if it even is a series) and that Jurassic Park shitbox is just another money grab marketing ploy to separate morons from their money. It might be enjoyable to some in the theatre, but I'd only watch if it happened to be on TV. I enjoyed the first 3 movies in that series, but it's a shell of its former self, imo. The reason I'll see this movie in the theatre is Cameron makes a visually appealing film and I've never seen a movie of his and felt cheated.
  11. I'll check it out just based off the world Cameron created in the first film. Pandora is a cool location and has badass inhabitants with interesting flora and fauna. The original movie reminds me of Pocahontas, if that story was about Alien Cat people. It could very well suck and be just like other sequels with terrible dialogue a loose story and shitty production, but Cameron's track records suggests, at the very least, it will be visually stunning to watch. Worth it, imo. I guess it depends on why you go see a movie. Visually stunning movies are great, and if it has a decent story that's just gravy. Marvel shits out some dumb secondary character storyline nobody asks for, but people still go see it. Why? It's entertaining to them. There are a lot of movies I will still watch, knowing full well that it isn't/wasn't the best version that could've been produced. Thor movies come to mind. The first two Thor movies were...something, Thor: Ragnrok had a great story and stopped taking itself so serious which made it a great movie to see and still watch today. The last Thor movie, Thor: Love and Thunder, sucked donkey balls and was nothing but a money grab to profit off of Ragnarok. 4 movies, one watchable over and over, and three I'll never see again. This new Avatar could be the same, but I'll still go see it in the theatre just like the first movie.
  12. Counter Point: Yes, but he's our syphilitic parasite.
  13. Like clockwork.
  14. Working and going out of town is hurting my fandom, but will be rooting on the 'Horns from my "office". 🤘
  15. I’m here for the gangbang. 🖕🏼Fuck England. 🖕🏼 Fuck Baylor. 🖕🏼 I…! I Believe…! I Believe That…! I Believe That We…! I Believe That We Will Win!!!
  16. Maybe his father loved coming to Austin and watching the Longhorns rip their hearts out... in the "Shoe"...at night. Side note, my aggy MIL mae comments all day and night about how Texas had no shot to win let alone stay within 2 TDs in 2005. I cannot tell you how big my smile was when Limas caught that ball. Ear to Ear. 😁 OSU LBs were legit that day though. Toughest three we'd seen in a while.
  17. Opens thread: How's it going fellas...? Closes Thread: Welp, that's about what I thought I'd see.
  18. What an absolute stupid tackle. Such a waste of a game.
  19. Damn, one goal given up and our team starts the kickball bullshit. Settle it down and fucking play!
  20. Narrator: It still didn’t matter. 🤘🏼 Negative Ghostrider. They should continue running the ball down their throats and score 3 more TDs. This tastes as good as beating Iowa St.
  21. I agree and hope we see it Saturday night. I just can't see us winning this game with the D we have on the field. I feel like we can score on them, but I think if we win the game it will be a back and forth, last team with the ball type of game. Here's to upsetting the apple cart! 🤘
  22. Pardon me, and I don't mean to be rude, but are you out of your mind? The Big XII have had the worst refs since it formed in 1996. It's been so bad for so long that opposing fan bases all understand what it means to have Big XII refs at their game. I'm not even talking about 2010 - present, go back to 1996, the early 2000's...Steve Usechek ring any bells?
  23. The funny thing...for about 10 seconds, I believed our conference was dumb enough to do something like this.
  24. Actually, probably a reference to Rick & Morty, specifically Mr. Meeseeks. LOOK AT ME!!!
