I don't know much about this stuff but I think the reason my payment isn't going through is because I'm on my Surface Pro using the Edge browser. When I get back home, I'll try logging in from Chrome and see if that works.

Well, I tried to pay through both paypal and through card direct and received an unable to log in through Paypal and error paying on the credit card. There's no real error message/code to send so I'll just hang around a bit until you guys have that figured out.

I think Texas could push back on showing high school games. It feels like Deloss totally rolled over on that one and didn't even try to fight.
Non football wise, in the last few years, the network has missed out on preseason basketball games that had a lot of interest. In addition, there doesn't seem to be any interest in showing spring sports outside of softball and baseball. Baseball should be shown live whenever possible and never be taken off the air for a blowout softball game. I'd rather watch some swim meets than another repeat of Texas-USC. I do think they do a good job on volleyball. Not sure about soccer, I can barely stomach watching that.
In football, Lowell Gallindo sucks as a host and as the "go to" host, he's a fucking dork Find another Kaylee Hartung and when they move up, find another one. Don't go back to the dork. I'd like to see a lot more buildup towards the upcoming opponents in football each week. This is a dumb example, but I would talk up every football opponent as being a huge threat to us (a la Mack Brown or Lou Holtz) and focus on key match ups with a really good player or two of the other team. Texas is a knowledgeable football state and there could be a show with a focus on actual X's and O's each week. I'm sure there are a lot more ideas out there that people more qualified than me could emphasize but those are just a few off the top of my head.

Random thought.
Longhorn Network hasn't been what I wanted it to be. This guy, if he has the time, could make that happen. A combination of is being good again in football and him putting some time into the network could make that the weapon I thought it could be.

The nail in the tire or Hamm's story?

Sometimes when I read these aggy threads, I kind of feel as though I’m laughing at the autistic kid in the back of the cafeteria that’s repeatedly hitting himself in the head with a full Coke bottle. Anybody ever felt that way before? And if so how did you get past it?
Aggy isn't the autistic kid in the back of the cafeteria. It's the dork who always tries to fit in with the cool kids. He talks about what a badass his navy seal older brother is (his brother really works on a ferry boat). It's the guy at the table, who when the other guys start talking about their girlfriends, he starts talking about his girlfriend who "goes to another school." It's the guy who claims he will fight someone and kick their ass but is nowhere to be seen when that opportunity arises. Aggy is not autistic. He's just a dork who tries too hard to fit in.

I've seen that movie before, everything about it sucks until the last minute or so. Killer ending though..
lulz. I can only watch the last drive of that game. We were so f'ing inept that only the aggy in them prevented them from running away with it. Hell of a defensive job by them in that last drive.

Koppe drank more than a trivial amount of booze last night.

Since they don't want to play us, we should agree and quit talking about it. I'll continue to enjoy beating them in post season sports. Glad we could agree.

There are and will be plenty of tickets.
Personally, I wouldn't stay in Georgetown. You can walk places but you won't have good access to the Metro lines. Might want to consider staying in Dupont Circle or even closer to the White House for more walkability to touristy stuff.

In 3 years at A&M this is who Beaty helped A&M land as the primary or secondary recruiter:
Myles Garrett (#2 national recruit)
Speedy Noil (#10 national recruit)
RSJ (#24 national recruit)
Nick Harvey (#60 national recruit)
Frank Iheanacho (#88 national recruit)
Sebastian Larue (#144 national recruit)
Kam Miles (#146 national recruit)
Laquvionte Gonzalez (#156 national recruit)
Daeshon Hall (#177 composite recruit)
Ishmael Wilson (#215 composite recruit)
Kenny Hill (#241 composite recruit)
Nobody in state wants to see Beaty as a position coach at Texas. He will be a problem on the recruiting trail.
Not only can he recruit, he can actually coach our receivers to block. I'd love to have him as WR coach.

+ rep for follow through. Glad you didn't get your pecker shoved on a hot stove.

I'd damn sure rather him tweet his homework than a quote like, "we ain't come to play school."

Mainly, that it is trying too hard to recreate Shaggy instead of creating its own identity.
This is an interesting take. I think one of the differences is that there are a bunch of posters missing and there is not really anything, right now, drawing in new visitors. I'm assuming football season may change some of that, but it's going to take some creative and talented posters to bring that kind of draw again. Some of the most creative/talented posters on shaggy aren't posting the same kind of content that they did in the past. My opinion isn't that it is trying to hard, the content is just not what it was.
You could also argue since Shaggy was torn away, that Surly is supposed to be a replacement. Why should it have its own identity?
And since none of that is really about Tapa, I'll post a Tapa comment here. I never use it anymore because the mobile version of this site is easier to use. For the folks who posted lots of gifs and pics, that's probably not true, but as someone who mostly lurks, I hate the way Tapa works now for Surly compared to the way it worked on Shaggy.
It's time to monetize, the question is how?
in Please do this better?
