    She has been coached into lowering her voice to not sound shrill (I guess) and she stretches out the last word of each line (not always the end of a sentence) whether it is multiple syllables or a single syllable. This absolutely is a learned delivery technique, because no one would ever be tolerated speaking like that growing up, nor hired to keep speaking like that, because a person could never last 5 minutes in an interview with that shit. ”As they move the ba-a-all They are able to pull the opposing defense apar-R-rt. Pulisic has been able to sneak in behind to the back po-o-ost.” This is all delivered with an “Imitate your most boring male high school teacher trying to speak clearly on a day that the teachers’ lounge has run out of coffee.” directive.
  2. I got head during “The Darjeeling Limited”, which I had never seen. Wasn’t even watching it, but when I heard Owen start talking it was really awkward since I’ve known him since elementary school. The Argentine novia wasn’t paying attention, but it kind of was killing the mood. (I may have muted the TV. Or maybe I changed the channel.)
  3. Gibraltar 🇬🇮 is just over half of UT’s enrollment, but that is birth to death bed shit. Why these Gibraltar 🇬🇮 , San Marino 🇸🇲 , Andorra 🇦🇩, Faroe Islands 🇫🇴… small towns are listed as “countries” and compete for a place in the Euros 💶 & World Cup 🏆 competitions is ridiculous. That’s why you have CR7 scoring 2,000 international goals and Lukaku scoring 4 goals in the first half.
  4. The old-timey cars need to be retrofitted as electric cars for next year’s race so that none of them piss out oil on the track right before the race. That colossal fuckup looked like something that I would see in Argentina 🇦🇷 Just a complete clusterfuck of an error that could have easily been prevented. 1) Sharl LaClair 2) Some F1 guy said before the race that “having races in Miami, Las Vegas, and New York were the kind of cities that F1 deserves.” I didn’t know that there was an “Ellis Island” casino. I bet that that place reeks of garlic, bad breath, B.O., and AXE body spray.

  6. 👆Too long & too negative… don’t care how accurate it may be. [Derka’s post] *Let’s agree to call it “his final season of high school eligibility”. Quinn was a red-shirt junior when he hurried back from injury for the playoffs. He turned 18 that spring and should have been graduating, but like VY after we won the national championship, Quinn decided to forego his final year of eligibility to declare that he was ready to get paid. There is no place for facts in this thread!! Of course, those facts don’t include a massively under-thrown ball to Adonai Mitchell who had his defender beaten by 10 feet or more. The pass interference call wiped out the incomplete pass, but that should have been a 50+ yard TD. Ummm… No he wasn’t. If our OL doesn’t hold-the-shit out of the defender, no way does Quinn have the time or space to complete that pass. In fact, he may have suffered a violent hit to his throwing shoulder if our guy hadn’t held their guy, so “screwed out of” is far from the truth. Quinn is 8-1 on the season. Quinn is injured. Quinn continues to improve. Quinn is far from perfect. Quinn is improving before our eyes, but is far from ready for the NFL. Both he and the Surly community would benefit greatly if he returns for another year of improvement.
  7. “TEN WIN STEVE” Knight of the Central Time Zone! Except of course for our second game of the 2024 season. So 33% of our next 3 regular season games. Other than that… 🥸

  9. No you just hush! It depends on the time of day, day of the week, wildfires, construction, presidential visits, mode of transportation, and street fairs.

    The kid with the red card in stoppage time was/is a fucking idiot! Down 0-3 when you need a win and the late game sub goes full 2010 Charles Puyol tackling Arjen Robben and gets a straight red and the announcer is saying “That’s “unfortunate’.”… NO! That’s full-blown regarded! ”Fortune” / “Misfortune” is a bad bounce. This was a fucking dumb as shit decision. Send that fucker home early on a plane by himself. Again, J.P Dellacamera[sic] going on about the 14 minutes of stoppage time and how we should be trying to protect the kids… Look Shit For Brains… There are 14 minutes of stoppage time because the game was stopped for 14 minutes!! 😂 He and that low-voiced woman who turns one-syllable words into 2-3 syllable words could not grasp the basic concept that the kids were NOT playing an extra 14 minutes, but rather were making up the 14 minutes that they DID NOT PLAY while 45 minutes ticked off the clock. If soccer ever realized that simply STOPPING THE CLOCK while tending to injuries, taking water breaks, consulting VAR, celebrating goals before kicking off, and subbing off players, you wouldn’t have idiot announcers moaning about stoppage time and misleading some viewers into thinking that the kids were playing extra minutes.
  11. I think that playing outside the Pacific Time Zone, but living 5 miles from the beach is going to help UCLA recruit better. I’m upbeat about UCLA’s future.
  12. That TE just showing SC defenders who’s the boss. As a proud former UCLA Extension student, this score pleases me. Bruin to the core, I am… when these two teams play.
  13. “Logan Sargeant, the absolute G.O.A.T.” -announcer’s son
  14. My DirecTV Stream says that qualifying is tonight from 1:55am-3:00am CST. 11:55pm-1:00am Local Time
  15. Washington State with 4 TDs less than 18 minutes into the game. DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  16. This game needs a laugh track or piped in crowd noise. It is about as loud as the COVID season.

    Fucking Mexicans are Hondurans’ bitches! Even their Argentine strike, Santi “No Gol” Gimenez!

    I saw a headline that Tico fans were upset that [Player X______(-ez?)] never saw the field. Don’t remember the player’s name, but Costa Rica went on a run to qualify for the 2022 World Cup because they abandoned their old farts and went with their kids. I thought that they had what it would take to be #4 in CONCACAF (behind the 🇺🇸, 🇲🇽, & 🇨🇦) for the next cycle or two.
  19. So you’re holding out hope that they could still go with Urban?
  20. I admire the respect shown here for Hollywood’s original casting methods. The commitment to give what you’ve got to land that role via attention to the pole and providing a hole. Bless women who respect the past. 🍆👌👩🏻‍🦳 💦 ( . )( . )
  21. I think that it was this thread that had screenshots of ags talking about: 1) Turning Longhorn items in Academy stores Upside-Down and/or Backwards on the rack. 2) Wanting to fuck with a dead man’s Longhorn lapel pin at an open casket funeral. Well… Last night I stopped into the Buc-ee’s in Temple on my drive back up to Dallas from the USA 🇺🇸 vs Trinidad & Tobago 🇹🇹 soccer game and wandered upon this: College magnets, except… …apparently two magnets were too intimidating, so… …someone had taken the time to flip the front Texas Longhorn magnets upside down. 🙄 I showed this to my elderly mother (who grew up in the Midwest and didn’t move to Texas until after college and stints in Chicago & NYC) and when she grasped what had happened she said: ”That just shows how inferior they [aggies] feel.”

    Zero shots on goal in the first half. Probably only one real shot off target and another thing that went 20 to 30 FEET over the goal and that was it. Fortunately I was in the 15th row of section 103 behind T&T’s goal in the second half and was like Bob Stoops… …because I had balls flying past me from every direction.
