Character issue rumors came from Georgia.

Banks and Ewers are top 10. Bond first round maybe. That’s not really going out on a limb. We have more talent than we have had in a very long time. Kind of nice.
A buddy who is a big Georgia guy and I were talking today. He laughed about the possibility of Sanders or Milroe getting drafted before Beck and Ewers. Going to be fun to watch.

19 minutes ago, Droopy said:He hit his shoulder and the kicker saw it coming at him and did nothing to brace for the hit. That being said, that kicker has balls of steel to continue to go for the first down knowing he was going to get hammered. Respect.
Csb: I met and worked with Tony (the kicker) for a bit in 2000. He was a good guy and always laughed when telling that story. Said 2 things were going through his mind when he got the pitch: 1) this is gonna hurt and 2) I’m going to kill Field for pitching it to me. Said the play was not supposed to be a pitch, if it wasn’t there for the holder (a wr), he was just supposed to go down. Gave Brackens all the credit in the world for the hit.

I’ll miss the baseball games and absolutely nothing else.
This right here. Everyone always talks about the football aspect, but baseball has been my favorite part.

Really looking forward to this. I re-read Shogun, Tai Pan, Noble House, and Whirlwind (skip King Rat and Gaijin) every few years. I hope the production company follows up with more.

Dusty took over a team in the middle of a scandal. He took the team to the ALCS every year. Went to 2 World Series and won one.
He has left large shoes to fill.
Dusty took over a team in the middle of a made-up “scandal”. Do not ever forget that. He underachieved with the Astros. Just like he has everywhere else.

This must be rectified.
They are probably waiting for the first home game against aggy.

I thought it was an impossible task to do the movie Dr. Sleep. The Shining book and movie had so many differences but I love both. I thought Dr. Sleep did better than it could have hoped for. Had great actors and the people involved did a great job navigating all of the source material and creating a good story. And I loved the part at the Overlook.

Honestly wish he had gone to Philly. Atlanta is where great Longhorns go to be amazing and never get recognized. Screw that town. Truly hope the best for him.

Something that has worked well for me over the years is head to Armadillo Palace (used to go to Kay’s before they sadly closed), have a beer, and grab an uber to the Holiday Inn at La Concha & Kirby. After the show, head back to the Holiday Inn and hit the bar there to enjoy the barrel racers and buckle bunnies. Then grab an uber back to Armadillo.

I went to Stewart and really enjoyed it. Not sure how it is today. My nephew went to La Junta from k-8 and loved it. As mentioned above, if you go to one of the shows and talk with the owner and introduce your son, that normally takes care of any waitlist issues you might have.

If you have any control of it spoetzl, please anybody other than Bun B on Hip Hop Night next year. I’d rather see Tupac’s hologram at this point.
Ha, well, don't be surprised to see both Bun B and Lizzo out there next year, and not necessarily on the 2nd Friday.

HLSR owes Lizzo one after her show got canceled in 2020. They rescheduled Gwen Stefani. Not sure what the issue is here.
Her availability this year.
HLSR has a wish list, and they pay attention to who is charting, who is touring well, etc... They stack rank and start reaching out well in advance. Some bands have standing invitations and work well with the staff. Others are permanently banned. Some bands have tours already booked and can't work around it. Others don't want to perform because of beliefs (such as cruelty to animals - not kidding). Others don't want to perform because they aren't comfortable in the setting (having everyone so far away. It definitely bothers some acts. New stage and other things have helped over the years).
You are always going to see similar acts year over year. Most up-and-comers don't fill up the stadium and/or have the right connections to be invited (and are too big for the Hideout/Wine Garden stages). #1 goal of the show is money. If they are not going to sell out or come close, the show isn't too interested.
The rodeo has spent tons on diversity studies, and is always looking for ways to include all aspects of Houston. The big issue there is that first and foremost, this is a livestock show and rodeo event, and that is not for everyone.
Best thing this year is to head out early on the 11th, grab free drinks at the poultry junior market auction (maybe help out the kids), then wander over and see Turnpike.
And Go Tejano Day is a nightmare for committee members just from the sheer size of the crowd. Best thing to do is sit in a suite and drink tequila all day.*

Tech: “You can’t leave! All of the plants are gonna die! How about a yearly game?”
Texas: “um, yeah, maybe, let’s look into that.”
Tech: “we have a guaranteed agreement!”

Why didn't they just replace Kelly McGillis with Elisabeth Shue?
Well they replaced her character with one admiral’s daughter. Penny Benjamin

Okay but can she not just convey the relevant details instead of turning it into a fucking drawn out English-lit project?
Society is so fucked. And this ordeal is shining a light on a lot of different aspects.
I mean seriously - "a complete accounting" - Christ I weep for our future.
Let us all know what narrative you feel is fair and just. It’s cool if you want to jump to conclusions. You have your opinion in your mind. It’s anti-Houston, that’s ok. Where else did it touch you?
