  1. This happened because of one dipshit driver. I'm sure the group of cyclists were passed by hundreds of cars without incident. The danger came when that dipshit kid decided to fuck with them. If the kid keeps driving, there is no story. The danger was 100% brought on by the driver.
  2. As a sometimes/casual bike rider...Ive ridden to work, concerts, bars, Astros/Dynamo games etc..I don't lump myself in with the tour de Houston types all decked out in race gear or the bike messenger/agro-city riders. I stick to side/neighborhood streets when possible. If there are no cars around, no I don't stop at stop signs. Typically will stop at lights, no matter what. That being said, I'm more concerned with the thousands of people operating 3000-5500 pound machines while looking at their phones. The fact that a thread about a fucking kid running into/over 6 people while fucking with them, has turned into an anti-cycle circle jerk, while not surprising for this place, is a little disappointing.
  3. Been enjoying the Sopranos marathon leading up to this. Man, what great fucking show. I was hoping Tony Blundetto would be in the movie...would love to see who would play Buscemi as a kid.
  4. This. First and last for me. The sound in that place was horrific. I never saw a show there while in school...as someone mentioned up thread, it seems like all the stuff I wanted to see, that wasn't at the Backyardand necessitated a bigger venue, was at Southpark.
  5. I too, like the 11a for OU.
  6. Some of y'all are putting a lot of stock into Pigs 1st half against Rice...and not nearly enough stock into aggy's 3.5 quarters of shit against CU. I think aggy wins because their D is pretty good. But it's gonna be ugly
  7. Just caught up. What a weird deviation from the norm. I dug it though. As an introvert myself, it was good to see them delve into Beard...who is seemingly portrayed as this man-of-few-words, introverted, kind of loner. He's a great character.
  8. Parents met at UT in the early-mid 60's. Dad is originally from Pennsylvania..he got his undergrad and played football at a small school up there. Ended up coming down to Austin for his Masters and eventually his PhD. Mom is from a small ass town in East Texas. After a stint at Tyler Junior college, where she was an Apache Belle...she finished up at UT in Austin. One of my mom's sisters, also a UT grad, had 3 daughters...all went to UT. I was always decked in burnt orange from the time I was a kid...never any doubt where I would end up. I was there mid 90's (James Brown>Ricky)
  9. Yeah...sure it CAN be loud. I've been there for a handful of some of the best crowds: UH-1990 Ricky's Run in 98 WVU- 2012 ND-2016 Those were all awesome. That should be the norm for Texas, not the exception. But, it is what it is.
  10. It's never been scary, and probably never will be a scary place to play. At least not because the fans are loud/raucous. Hell, if Rice score on their first drive, you'll be able to hear a mouse fart in that place.
  11. "Scares ya to death" I'm not going to argue...I don't see their D as being "good". At all. They're giving up 41/game and were beaten on the ground by Arky and through a balanced attack by UH. We'll see...I agree with you about the game plan. I think we cover by halftime, honestly.
  12. That was fucking retarded. I was flipping around and was like WTF?
  13. yeah..oops. Some reason mixed up Majors and Conner (Don't all white OLmen look alike)...and maybe remember hearing some decent things about Conner from practice reports.
  14. I would hope Karic and or Conner could get some time. They showed a little last year. Shame they weren't even given a chance against Ark, given what the fucking starters were doing out there.
  15. Don't let their first half against Arky fool you, Rice is bad. Like, bad bad. I know there is a lot of PTSD around here, but Texas should win convincingly. I'd take Texas -23 or whatever the line is.

    Hook 'em

    I'm in and I'm excited. I know it's Rice, but I think we come out and kick the shit out them....and Tech. And TCU, fuck it. 4-1 going into OU. I'll take it.
  17. What's with this Brian Boitano guy? If he's so great at skating, why doesn't he just play hockey, you know?
  18. I'm over the Arky loss. Redemption tour starts on Sat. Anxious to see what adjustments have been made.
  19. I can't imagine anyone watching that game Saturday and NOT agreeing with giving Casey a shot.
  20. Man, that is a dangerous question round these parts... What time does Scholz's open?
  21. Man...reading that right after watching the 60min special on the FDNY from that day. Oof. Its amazing to me to think of all the individual stories like that. My wife was there that day for work(this was before we met) ...they were in Soho, about 1-1.5 miles from WTC. Being on the ground there was a completely different experience than what most people watched unfold on national television. They met for breakfast at Balthazar and started to sense something was going on. She overheard some other patrons talking about a plane or plane crash. Everyone assumed it was a small Cessna type plane with some idiot behind the controls.
