  1. And a lot can be gleaned by seeing who doesn’t rep a post.
  2. Godspeed, Robbie, and thanks for the tunes.
  3. Been binging on King Crimson. Early use of the Mellotron.
  4. Atlanta. I thought about going with the Dodgers, but fuck them.
  5. A man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do.
  6. You’ve done this before.
  7. Aaaaahhhhh!!!!!!

  10. I think of it as ‘corps values’ since that’s where all the fucking looney crazy shit that is aggy emanated.
  11. If you looked up ‘nose for the ball’ in the dictionary, there’d be a picture of Chuck Howley.
  12. I don’t get it.
  13. Playing for love of country is a component of motivation, inspiration, and ambition to win. Congrats, Sweden.
  14. Of course, you did.
  15. A team has to be on the same page if you’re going to win at the highest level. When half the players sing the national anthem and half the team stands there like statues, there’s a clear lack of unity which manifested itself in a disappointing performance.
  16. Now that their season is over, the players can use the down time to learn the words to the national anthem.
  17. Soooo, when the great majority of my buddies went to college in the early 70’s, their moms turned their bedrooms into guest bedrooms. Translated that meant all their shit had been taken out to the curb/thrown away (without their knowledge) and when they came home there was nada. On the other hand, my mom called me my freshman year at UT, told me she was turning my bedroom into a guest bedroom, and if there was anything I wanted in that room, I should come that weekend and get it. Thanks to mom, I still have my baseball card collection including Don Nottebart, Bob Aspromonte, Johnny Temple, Carl Warwick, and Turk Farrell cards with the Colt .45’s and a 1965 Houston Astros card of Jimmy Wynn. So, I’ve got that going for me.
  18. Was at the no hitter in the summer of ‘67 w/Don Wilson on the mound (yes, I’m old). It was the first no hitter in the Astrodome. And fuck Mike Fiers.
  19. A&M faces accusations of sex discrimination, retaliation at Qatar campus Dr. Sheela Athreya files a lawsuit against Texas A&M University, alleging a hostile climate for women faculty at its campus in Qatar. Dr. Sheela Athreya, a professor in the Department of Anthropology at Texas A&M’s College of Arts and Sciences, has taken legal action against Texas A&M University, alleging sex discrimination and retaliation at the university’s Qatar campus.(Texas A&M photo) By Rusty Surette Published: Aug. 1, 2023 at 9:43 PM CDT|Updated: 13 hours ago COLLEGE STATION, Texas (KBTX) - Dr. Sheela Athreya, a professor in the Department of Anthropology at Texas A&M’s College of Arts and Sciences, has taken legal action against Texas A&M University, alleging sex discrimination and retaliation at the university’s Qatar campus. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas on July 6, 2023, highlights a series of alleged incidents involving the campus’s treatment of women faculty. According to the complaint filed in the Southern District of Texas – Houston Division, Dr. Athreya, was actively recruited by the Liberal Arts Program Chair at the Qatar campus. The Program Chair wanted her to teach a core curriculum course there, a required course for graduation, and wanted the campus to have more women faculty. At the time her contract began, Dr. Athreya alleges she was “the only woman serving at TAMUQ from the main campus, the only woman with tenure, only one of two women in research-engaged positions promoted past assistant professor and one of only four women in a research engaged position at any rank. Her attorneys at Wiley Walsh, Wiley Wheeler, and Rob Wiley, P.C. says eight days after Dr. Athreya arrived in Doha with her family, the Dean told the Liberal Arts Program Chair that her contract would not be renewed though he had never met Dr. Athreya. “The reasons for the non-renewal, based on the pleadings, were so unsatisfactory that the Program Chair filed a complaint of sex discrimination against the Dean,” said attorneys in a news release shared on Monday. This is not the first time there have been complaints of sexism at the TAMUQ campus and against its Dean per the filing. Based on one witness statement quoted in the complaint, the Dean “makes women feel uncomfortable and unsupported. Eleven or twelve female faculty have left since his arrival and five or six specifically due to Dean Malavé's treatment.” Dr. Athreya states that she is filing this lawsuit “to hold accountable the individuals who create a hostile climate for women, as well as those who shield them; because accountability is essential for change.” Texas A&M University did not respond to a request for comment on this story. Dr. Athreya’s lawsuit was filed the week prior to Dr. Kathleen McElroy’s employment fallout inside the journalism program at Texas A&M University’s flagship campus in College Station. On Sunday, the Board of Regents authorized negotiations for a potential settlement of claims by McElroy, and directed a quick and thorough investigation, with the intention of releasing the findings to the public ….And the hits keep on coming for aggy….
  20. This tune goes out to Framber “No No” Valdez
