  1. Seems like a pretty solid plan. We should let Sark know.
  2. I am confident I've gotten to the bottom of the issue. I know exactly how to alleviate your problems. 💯
  3. Not only that he's got directly family that played QB in the NFL fairly recently, where hating on a QB is absolutely worse than any college including Texas. That's a support system that almost no QB has ever had prior. Add that to a logical, methodic process which was clearly strongly supported by his family and it puts Arch in a fantastic place. Sark, his team, his friends outside the team, family and access to any mental health assistance he could possibly want is frankly a dream for a college QB. Arch is 100% aware, as are his family of the certainty, not possibility, but guaranteed slams in the media and select fans the first time he falters or takes even a minor mistake. Being mentally aware and prepared in advance by family who know exactly what it will feel like is an advantage that many of us can't even fully understand. How many people have a family member in a public position that can prep them for success and the aftermath of failure in their chosen fields. That did the exact same job. A few coaches and politicians is all I can come up with that have experienced that reality.
  4. I only watched the Texas v Vandy and Texas v aggie ones. 5 and 6 iirc. Besides the aggie fail joy, it gives a bit of the flavor of the coaches and team. Of what I saw Beamer seems the most level headed and relatable of all of them. Also, his wife is pretty damn hot. Lebby felt like he was in way over his head but the team results certainly had a part in that. Lea came off as very good at maintaining a game face and competent coach but it felt like there was some shit brewing below. Elk came off, far and away, as the biggest choade, to no one's suprise here. Pavia came off as an entitled POS. They absolutely glossed over the complete drubbing aggie took in the tackle box. Really only showing the 2 turn overs and I think both Texas TDs. However, its clear Texas AD said hard pass as there was zero Texas engagement on the series. Georgia and Bama seemed the same but I didnt watch them all.
  5. Not only that, but the assumption that it's easy to "talk yourself into" aggie being a dark horse candidate in the SEC??? Not if you have paid any attention to them or their results/performance at any point for say... the past 10-100 years.
  6. Taurean York first bitching about Texas coaching staff not giving him time of day was the first highlight. Particularly, after they flew a helicopter to Temple and his coach asked him to sit in the office while his team mate was recruited seems questionable all around. Then the old fat white lady gushing on York for having "sacked both quarterbacks" after the loss was extremely aggie. Elko came off as an absolute dick, but you could tell he was throwing in some "I relate to these players" shtick for the cameras at a couple of points.
  7. She's walking, sadly sooner rather than later. Coffee zilla is killing it. 🤬
  8. Heathers, Drug Store Cowboy, Say Anything, War of the Roses and Sex, Lies, Video Tape are some great sleepers from 1989. "Greetings and Salutations" I used that line for the better part of a decade.
  9. I brought up Krull on the recruiting thread in regards to Kreul about 2 days ago. Krull is umm.. a cult classic but it's not um... great.
  10. Hits way, way too close to home.
  11. I dunno man. I'm gonna end up watching some of these movies over and over. 1994 is really hard to argue against. Forest Gump, Shawshank, The Professional, Clerks, Pulp Fiction, NBK, Ace Ventura, Dumb and Dumber and The Crow is a really great, broad selection that I've already gotten a lot of mileage out of prior. 1971 has a lot to offer 1999 is selected by a lot of people. Fight Club, The Matrix, American Beauty, The Green Mile, Being John Malkovich, Man on the Moom, Office Space, Boone Dock Saints, Galaxy Quest, Phantom Menance, Austin Powers and Bicentennial Man are all very re-watchable. I think I'm torn between 1994 and 1999.
  12. Not Murican' nor manly enough for aggie.
  13. Sure, but wait until we pull in our girl friends.
  14. I truly hope you're wrong but put near zero faith in that hope. I could just copy and paste that quote from Ron Filipokowski for what is likely to happen if she walks. "I have no idea. That's not my area. It happens all the time. You need to ask whoever runs that department." Like a fucking produce worker at a grocery store when you ask them where to find spices.
  15. Agree that injuries in 2024 and 2025 seriously hurt his draft stock, but performance, even if while hurt, also factors in to the equation. Agree that getting him that late and making the 53 would be a huge win for Quinn and the Dolphins. I really don't see him getting a ton of snaps in 2025 at QB3 so injury is obviously less likely. However, given health issues ahead of him certainly not impossible.
  16. We all know that's a silly request.
  17. Zero shade on Quinn, I'm honestly curious if 3 out 14 QBs drafted in a given year meeting expectations is low, average or high. This Fox piece reports: (63.9 percent) were more of a "miss" than a "hit." From 1st round draft picks. My lazy searching ass didn't find anything for ALL QBs but 3 out of 14 in 2025 draft is 21.4% which given 36.1% is the success rate of 1st rounder seems pretty on target.
  18. :::Sigh::: Don't know why I even bother trying here anymore.
  19. Well, I apologize but at least I recalled which article of clothing you preferred for your later snack storage if not the precise location.
  20. Gonna have to belay that request until Arch has (a) son(s) and you forgot Colts understandably unnamed son.
  21. My personal favorite loss for aggie is this one: I was with @immamac and later after watching the game above in a bar went to watch this one: In all, a glorious day all around despite losing $50 when I took the aggies to win on straight bet with Immamac in the 3rd aggie up 35-17. Also, I sat with Huskers at the game. If you can't appreciate that sort of day, we can’t be friends.
  22. You're confusing him with @immamac Pretty sure @Brisketexan wears his leftovers on his sleeve.
