  1. There’s a few good things on there but most of the stuff I’d like to watch you’d have to pay extra for the showtime package. Already have too many streaming services. I said no thanks when my subscription expired in January
  2. Are we gonna pretend like Bosom Buddies never happened?
  3. I don’t like ANYBODY enough to loan them thousands of dollars to get their family heirlooms out of estate sales. I’d be curious to see how many people he has to approach with these stories before he gets a bite.
  4. The tourist was on hbo max a couple of years ago.
  5. Completely agree with the essay being a huge component. My daughter had great grades, great ACT score and good SAT score… and so did many of her cohort that didn’t get in. Her essay set her apart in my opinion. She originally wrote a very serious essay that was extremely dry and uninteresting. Her college counselors, college consultant and I helped her revise it numerous times and it was still just uninteresting and nothing special. One night after about the 10th revision, she just said, “I hate this essay” and scraped it. She and her sister were sitting on the couch brainstorming ideas and she jokingly said “I’m gonna write my essay about the Rock”. She went in her room and wrote a hysterical essay about the Rock and his influence on her. She sent it to her counselor and consultant who loved it. Only had 1 revision and sent it in. The point is: don’t write what you think they want to hear. Write about what you love.
  6. You might be surprised about what grants and financial aid your daughter may be eligible for. I would consider us upper class and my daughter got financial aid or grants at almost every school she applied to (with the exception of Santa Clara and Villanova I believe). That being said, you can’t beat the value of a state school (Texas tuition, room and board is about equivalent to Dallas private high schools).
  7. My tier of Hulu does this too. I preferentially look for stuff on other services because it’s such a nuisance
  8. If this relatively unknown dude can sell himself to Sark and CDC then he should be able to sell himself to recruits and their parents…. Kinda like how Franklin wants his assistants to have hot girlfriends because they have confidence and can sell themselves well.
  9. Did he have accomplices or making that shit up? I can see why the cops were skeptical. The story is crazy, the 911 call had no urgency to it. The security footage of the girl walking home was odd, looked like she was walking into her house after a trip to the grocery store, not scared for her life. That being said, cops were assholes for going public and shitting all over then on national TV. Looks like they got caught up in Gone Girl, not the victims.
  10. The Tolkien guy blew 2 point blank shots
  11. Is this Polynesian bowl live? Says Simmons and Gibson are in the roster but haven’t see them play. Are they playing even though they’re early enrollees? Saw Baker in the game earlier. OU guy Stone playing well.
  12. Don’t get me wrong- I love Ford and think he was a great, steady leader at LB but I feel like he dropped off a little from last year and didn’t make as many great plays as he did when he was a junior. I’m hoping there will be no significant drop off next year.
  13. At least Romo was likable. Everything Dak does annoys the shit out of be. Especially the “here we go” schtick and the stupid pregame stretches he does.
  14. Golden already seems like a good locker room guy and he hasn’t even started school yet.
  15. I go back and forth between rooting for the cowboys to win a superbowl and hoping Jerry doesn’t win shit for the rest of his miserable life.
  16. Graduated the same year and have the same hat. The number of people who “get it” is few and far between these days.
  17. Is Sark’s extension done? I’d imagine the only reason he hasn’t come out and said he’s not going anywhere is because they’re still hammering out details and negotiating money. Wish they’d hurry up and get this done so we can all relax and laugh at the rest of the college football world scrambling.
  18. If he goes aggy we don’t have to worry about him hurting us in the near future like we would if he’s at Bama or Auburn. Look at Stewart and Demas.
  19. I think that a lot of sites not giving Sark odds for potential replacement suggests that our program is getting up there with Georgia (and Kirby Smart who no one is mentioning either even though he’s from the Saban coaching tree too). Sark has worked too hard to get us (and himself) where we are to bail now.
  20. Kelly is such a cocksucker. Why would anyone want to work for him??
  21. Don’t get the love for Ohio State. They looked terrible against Michigan and overwhelmed agsinst a good but not great Missouri team. Ohio State, Penn State and Iowa and offensively challenged.
