Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
Weird considering he gave up 1 touchdown and just over 200 yards for the entire year. I'm sure you're right, though.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
I mean, this is just wrong. He graded out at 90.3 with PFF, 3rd highest for a CB (Jahdae was first at 90.9). Tied for 9th in passer rating allowed, 4th for INTs. Passed the eye test with some awesome plays and did it all while basically only coming off of the field for special teams. Colorado and Deion are annoying but Hunter was pretty great on both sides of the ball.

Neil Diamond in the red shirt. Neil Young in the white next to Joni.

Foo Fighters or The Killers?
I'm honestly trying to follow what you are saying here, but I'm at a loss. What about this music/performance is hitting you as limp and passive exactly? You may think it sucks or isn't what you respond to in music, but that just feels like a bizarre way to describe it.

Foo Fighters or The Killers?
He's the one Who likes all our pretty songs And he likes to sing along And he likes to shoot his gun But he don't know what it means You're right I didn't, I was like 7 when Kurt died. I've seen Modest Mouse live lots of times though and I wouldn't consider them limp, passive, or wimpy either. I'm not a Nirvana hater by any means, I was just using G650's framing. It seems like he was identifying when popular rock bands started being more openly disaffected and vulnerable. If that shift did happen, it had to have started when Nirvana was the biggest band in the world in the early 90s, well before the time period he was identifying.

Foo Fighters or The Killers?
I'm trying not to take the bait with the generational culture war part of this post, but taking your premise at face value, wouldn't Nirvana be the first big band that was "arresting in their wimpiness"?

Foo Fighters or The Killers?
Take it FWIW, but as a data point for who has the “biggest song” and more relevance to the current landscape, the Killers most played song on Spotify has over 1 billion more streams than the Foo’s. And over 6 million more monthly listeners.

This seems to be the consensus I’m reading. I read somebody call him the most “complete prospect” in a generation, because his offensive game is much more refined at this point than Wemby’s and he’s a good defender, especially as a help side guy. Wemby has a higher ceiling, mainly because he has a higher ceiling than everyone. Another thing to consider with Flagg is he just turned 18, he reclassified to go to Duke a year early. Which makes him holding his own last summer in workouts with the men’s national team even more impressive, he was a 17 year old kid.

Yeah, that would make sense for everyone

2025 NBA Draft - Gag for Flagg
Not sure if that logic tracks, if he opts in he rehabs for most of next season making $44 million dollars. How many franchises are going to pay a 33 year old guard anywhere near that to not play next season? I understand opting out gives him the opportunity to get those guaranteed years on the back end at a big number, but I just don’t think the market is going to be there for him to turn down the $44 mil. Probably makes more sense to opt in, take his time with his rehab, and be healthy enough to secure one last big contract with his play next year once he returns

2025 NBA Draft - Gag for Flagg
They can’t contend right now without some kind of creator until Kyrie gets back, assuming we even see him next year and he’s the same. Front court is pretty loaded now though so there is certainly a move or two to be made

Bill Belichick Rides Again: Hired at North Carolina to build NIL NFL Factory
“While Jordon Hudson is not an employee at the University or Carolina Athletics…” Yeah, the very first sentence of their defense of her makes it clear that she doesn’t work for them. Pretty telling, UNC basically had to deny the story but that messaging is not a coincidence.

The 2025 Oscars
A few weeks ago my father in law and his wife were in town and my girls (7 and 4) wanted to have a movie night. After some negotiation we landed on Flow as something everyone may be able to tolerate. So some back story, FIL is pretty deaf and English isn’t his first language. Following movies can be tough for him and he usually kind of just checks out and looks at his phone. His wife is much younger and kind of dumb with the attention span of a kid. My actual kids also have attention spans of a kid. The entire crew was totally locked in, from the 75 year to the 4 year old. To have storytelling be that clear and engaging without a single line of dialogue is so cool to me, it’s literally movie magic.

2025 S Jonah Williams
Sort of, not sure how much of a choice it was. He was buried on the depth chart at QB and had moved to TE by the time he quit football. If we wanted to play professional sports baseball was pretty clearly the path.

New Bon Iver is fucking great. Day One and I’ll be There are the standouts to me, but I think I’ll be wearing this thing out for the next few months. Only question is whether I’ll ever listen to the Sable songs or just start at Fable every time
