  1. That's a college town, of course. The state overall is certainly still Trumpkin ruled.
  2. I've thought several times that two bumper stickers need to be made and plastered everywhere. JESUS WAS AN UNDOCUMENTED BROWN IMMIGRANT TRUMP WOULD ARREST AND DEPORT JESUS
  3. I see you married way out of your league like all competent Texans. Welcome to the club.
  4. Half of our hits were on the last two pitches of the game.
  5. Altootblan It's not an Astros week without one
  6. p.s. it's been true for 30 years and remains true that betting on the team with a more western longitude in the NCAA baseball tournament is a long-term money-making play.
  7. The overrating of the east (yes including the SEC) is once again being made clear. The RPI vastly overrates the more interconnected east as Boyd Nation has shown but even his ISR suffers from the same issue to a much lesser degree. And yet some didn't want to listen when I said that barring any teams who finished in the lower half of their conference (or sub-.500) from the tournament was the right thing to do. Again, if you have proven to the best of our ability to know that you aren't even in the top half of your regional subset of teams YOU DO NOT BELONG IN A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT.
  8. That's what I was thinking. Let's sign their kids but don't even think about redshirting them. Play them before their knees explode.
  9. Agreed. Scores belong on glasses (not cups) like the 1960s football titles. Ha
  10. After all the wailing and gnashing of teeth we wake up on June 7th and the Astros are in first place by 2.5 games with the third best record in the AL at 35-28. Start of play on 6/7/24 we were 28-35 in third place, 7.5 games out.
  11. I wouldn't say it's nice. He's still a dipshit.
  12. I assume Trump followed up with "Exactly."
  13. Good lord I can't wait to see these last two posts interact. I want to see Diaz watch a screen say that the ball was 6.8 inches outside.
  14. It's June and 25% of their wins have come in the past 48 hours. It's a great tweet.
  15. If you only look at the current series and project out to the rest of the season, they are on pace to finish 112-50.
  16. Y'all are too kind. When someone tells you they're an idiot, believe them.
  17. Awesome. Thought about joining the thread but just before I started composing my post Henry gave us the lead and I wasn't about to change any mojo. Then watched the 7th on my phone as my son drove us home from his scrimmage. He has a permit and hasn't been driving long so it was the first time I wasn't nervous about his driving because I had something more important to worry about.
  18. 2:01 complete game win?
  19. Lol as if anyone needed any more proof of the incestuous SEC/ESPN relationship that has created the shitshow, Sankey presents "proof" using 5 metrics, 4 of which are published by ESPN using unpublished algorithms.
  20. This current scoreline validates my earlier arguments about not letting in bottom half conference teams into a national championship tournament. Therefore we can consider the argument closed, I have won, and any changes to this score and any future scores are irrelevant.
  21. Target is being boycotted because they immediately announced a rollback of their DEI program. Which was amazingly tone deaf because they had greatly benefited from customer behavior after being a leader on social causes before. But I think net-net shopping at Target instead of Amazon for an item isn't something you should feel bad about.
