  1. Great character, brilliant writing, sublime execution by Wendt. RIP, George, you made a lot of people laugh.
  2. She looks like she’s ready to blow, chunks, not bubbles…
  3. I fucking knew the “we were treated unfairly, Liberty was too good” narrative was coming. Like clockwork. It’s the playoffs, expect everyone to have something, besides the fact you supposedly have the best team in America, and are playing at home.
  4. Poor directing (camera switching) is my biggest technical beef. It may seem like bad camera work, but those guys are instructed to pan to their next shot immediately after they get their principal shot/the “play” concludes. It’s the director’s job to switch the cameras appropriately. And they do an especially shitty job of that on the SEC Network’s + channels. They are also really late switching from an iso of the pitcher or batter to the action of the play. Very amateurish, a byproduct of so many games being telecast, the available pool of professionals is diluted.
  5. Does anyone know the name of the color commentator (and be willing to post it)?
  6. You’re not thinking of Darnell Washington from just three years ago? Bowers was the receiver, Washington was the guy with his own zip code.
  7. That’s a good question, so I went to Wikipedia. Nothing new on the resume, but it did have this bit of weirdness: Personal life Herman is a member of Mensa International. He and his wife, Michelle, have a daughter, Priya, and two sons, Maddock and Herman the Frog [2]
  8. I tried to find one of those six year old, multi page threads, but I think this guy actually enrolled here before the birth of Surly. Anyway, he’s finally medically retired, and probably qualify for SS. Always thought he was a gamer. Good luck, Cam. Rising was pushed into a table at the Gatorade station on the Baylor sideline in the first half of their September matchup. He didn’t return to the game. Rising returned in October and started a loss against Arizona State, but suffered a leg injury that ultimately sidelined him for the rest of the season. Rising’s college career was marred by injuries. He redshirted at Texas in 2018 and redshirted at Utah the following season. In 2020, he started against USC and then suffered a season-ending shoulder injury. In 2021, Rising became the Utes’ starting quarterback in the third game of the season. He threw for 20 TDs over 13 games with just five interceptions. The next year, Rising was the team’s undisputed starter and completed 65% of his passes for 3,034 yards and 26 TDs with just eight interceptions. However, he suffered a devastating knee injury in the Rose Bowl against Penn State.
  9. That’s a LaAllan Clark eval/relationship. Must not be such a “hard commit” to Alabama after all.
  10. With all due respect, Wolk literally credited Sarkisian as being a top “developer.”
  11. Mook with no pants at Met Gala
  12. I must be having one of those Mandela effect moments because I seem to recall adding a backup QB transfer several months ago (who had a lot of experience at lower levels) who was obviously coming in hopes to become the next Milwee. But I don’t see anyone like that on the roster. Found it, C.J. Rogers, from January. He was a preferred walk on, so if he did indeed transfer here, that may be why he doesn’t appear on the 2025 roster. https://www.si.com/college/texas/football/transfer-qb-cj-rogers-commits-to-texas-longhorns-for-2025-season-01jgs49d9hhn
  13. I happen to know Walte464 is the ghost of Joe Jamail, so taunt at your own peril.
  14. It was worse than that earlier, I think about eight topics in a row…
  15. I’ve had the trots before, but I never celebrated it.
  16. I seem to recall Michael Kern was our actual punter, not sure how much Ratliff even played.
  17. He’ll be back next year, but as a fan after completing his first spring at Texas. Don’t be kreul.
  18. You seemingly dropped a reference to this on the (god forbid) Football board earlier today. Any time frame you can share?
  19. Shannon Terry probably laughs himself silly whenever he hears the word “Yahoo!” And I wonder what the relationship is now between Terry and Burton. The Burton/IT split of 12/23 was bizarre.
  20. Spider is clearly someone trying to up the site’s post numbers.
  21. I know you’re not being facious, but I am now interested to know what happens when you are being facious.
  22. Raising Arizona, a classic. Watch it. Nathan Arizona, Sr. was played by Trey Wilson, who sadly died at only 40 (he seemed older), and whose stepson Eric attended Texas back in the early 80’s.
  23. I haven’t really checked in on OTF in months but I just dropped by and saw news of a women’s basketball transfer. I saw some posters wonder about the player’s three point shooting prowess, and stats would indicate middling at best, not great, and this was discussed. Then other posters weighed in to chide anyone for having the gall to doubt Vic and his decisions. It’s a fucking message board. No one ripped the transfer. I guess you shouldn’t even discuss statistics. I’m technically an old, but at least I’m not one of those stick up my ass olds.
