  1. Yeah, definitely wasn't expecting this level of pitching, and Wong, Duran, Abreu, and O'Neill are all performing better than I expected. Even Rafaela and Hamilton have stepped in for Story better than anticipated. It's a fun team to root for.
  2. Hopefully it's a shorter non-surgical separation. Not with our luck though.
  3. Daughter's boyfriend confirmed. They can't charge a fiancé and a fiancée for the same crime...
  4. I'm not a lawyer, but know that in VAWA terms, family member is a super broad term that would distinguishes something like this hypothetical from a random act of violence against someone off the street.
  5. IIRC, super cell's parent company is Chinese. Edit: supercell is Finnish; parent company tencent games is a holding company headquartered in China.
  6. Not sure this is the right spot for this, but I felt the need to share with a bunch of assholes. She would have loved it here. She was 91, and just diagnosed with covid within the last week. She wasn't doing so well for the last couple months though. She was cajun, from New Iberia, and the last generation in my family to grow up speaking French. She gave me my first beer, first oyster, and was sitting next to me in what i think was my first memory (a john boat bayou ride with alligators going under us from one side of the shore and up onto the other). She once tackled me and covered me up when i stumbled on a yellow jacket nest. She was stung 17 times, but I never was. When I was accepted into UT, she gave me this burnt orange mold of a hand doing the hook 'em horns that had to be 30 years old at that point. She was so fucking happy for me. As a father of daughters, i can only pray that I've prepared them to live their lives as she has. I'd be honored for them to have her integrity and work ethic, love and tenacity. As I'm sitting here drinking rye, listening to "I Feel Like Hank Williams Tonight" on repeat, and crying my eyes out, I'm trying to push myself into being thankful for the time I had and all the wonderful gifts she's given me, but fuck I'm sad. Here's to you meemaw. If I happen to end up in the same afterlife as you, we're making gumbo and dirty rice and drinking wine in your kitchen for eternity, all day every day.
  7. Then you'd be a better poster and not a tard
  8. You're fucking tarded to use that as your reason for why Sark is tarded.
  9. If the PAC drops to eight, I'd think it's because they're intending to pick up games, not just replace what they have with home and homes via the alliance. They already do a lot of bigger home and home games. They'll replace these with alliance games over time, and also add SDSUs of the world for the extra game to sell.
  10. I appreciate your point of view, and agree with a lot of it. I just don't see UT making the effort to bolster Tech via athletics. It may hinge on an 8 or 9 game schedule. 8, and maybe we could commit to a home and home with Tech. 9, with needing 2/3 to be home games, definitely not. Otherwise, there's not enough money, exposure, or recruiting impact in Lubbock to make it worth while, right or wrong.
  11. Everyone would resist a 10 game conference schedule. TV is great, but pales in comparison to the revenue of half a home game per year.
  12. It wasn't my first, but first I can remember and speak to is 1992 houston. The loudest I've ever heard DKR.
  13. I think it was the opposite. Aggy got a talking to Friday night/ Saturday morning, and looch got his marching orders to support it. .
  14. Now we're talking... DKR always was and always will be Texan.
  15. This is 2020, right? I would guess those numbers are fucked up for that game. Texas/OU was that day and went into quadruple overtime on FOX. I don't remember, but I'm guessing we bled into their timeslot, and whatever data is being used on the chart isn't sophisticated enough to know their game wasn't the one being shown when data was being collected.
