  1. It's to the point we just need to stop blitzing. Because they can hold blatantly to prevent a sack and never worry about actually getting it called. It's unbelievable.
  2. Another hold. Every single fucking dropback
  3. At some point your players have to execute against a light front. That's not a matchup we should be losing. Period. We aren't playing fucking Georgia.
  4. Yeah, I think he got too conservative in the 2nd quarter for sure. I mean we don't want a pick obviously but at some point have to trust your arm and your receviers to make a play. We are infinitely more talented in that matchup.
  5. Our fans have always been morons. Water is wet. You want to bitch about the fake FG call, sure fair game. But "Sark" isn't the one that stalled our O. Our IOL are playing like absolute shit getting no push against a light front we should absolutely be able to run against and QE is playing way too fucking conservative.
  6. This defense can't execute for shit. Make a fucking play.
  7. Another missed hold
  8. I always forget how many fucking morons are on this board. Then I read a game thread. Do you dumbasses really think Sark is "calling" a check down? JFC
  9. WTF was that secondary.
  10. I wouldn't mind giving him a series with the 1's right now.
  11. Now let's get a turnover.
  12. I mean considering what happened last time we played at this glorified HS stadium, I'm going to go ahead and say it's safe to blame UH fucking us.
  13. Seriously. Who could bitch about that drive. Great opening script. Great 4th down play call. Now let's get a 3 and out
  14. Like that play call.
  15. I'm guessing it isn't a close out game was a big reason. If we won last night, ticket prices would be much higher as you have a chance to see them win the AL. No chance of that now. And losing always causes ticket prices to drop. It's a Dallas sports down phenomenon across Mavs/Rangers/Stars playoffs I've noticed. Tix fluctuate dramatically based on prior outcome. That 2011 NBA finals was case and point. We tie it 1-1 and tix to home game 3 were insane. I had $800 cash for 2 and couldn't get in the door. Then we lost that and I got decent seats for under $200 each for game 4. We win that and game 5 (at 2-2) was the craziest Mavs ticket market I've ever seen. I had a good lower single already in hand I could have flipped for a ton. Yet here we are in same position and prices fell off a cliff. All about perceived momentum
  16. I don't think I've been to that J Gilligans since the Texas/Nebraska Big 12 Championship Game but may hit that up. Thx for reminder.
  17. Yeah, i'm thinking about grabbing lunch somewhere in Arlington that is not Texas Live. I see a Marianos relatively close by (which, at least the Dallas location is solid). Any other suggestions?
  18. Yep - I bought extras but there was miscommunication in our group and we overbought and sold for 1/2 price. Doesn't help that it's an afternoon game obviously.
  19. Yeah, the ticket market completely tanked overnight after the last 2 games. On one hand, that's insane considering it's 2-2 with Verlander/Montgomery today (and like most pro sports towns, this area has always been fair weather and outcome of game prior in any playoff series dictates ticket prices), but that being said, I'm sure a lot of people that shelled out big money the last 2 nights aren't inclined to do it again. Ticket prices aside, I forgot what a pain in the ass it is to get there on a weekday with traffic and to get out of there when it's a sold out game. I didn't get home until pretty damn late last night. It was great to be at the ballpark with the roof open, it makes for a significantly better experience in that stadium IMO (which I'm still not a fan of) but with the way the game went, not much to get excited about.
  20. Finally! Have been wanting to experience the stadium without a roof the way baseball is supposed to be played (although I'll never bitch in August). I went to a game in April or early May in the '22 season with perfect weather and it was closed for some reason. And perfect weather last night it was closed. Glad we are opening it up tonight.
  21. What are the odds of him making it the rest of the season? Was watching that game as well thinking no chance. Seems like eventually he's going to get hit in the wrong spot. Hell, I texted my aggy friend during the Arkie game that Jimbo should be fired "for cause" for allowing so many designed runs knowing you have shit behind him at QB. But yeah, that kid is tough getting up time and time again.
  22. Bad timing for Mizzou to actually look like a relevant program. Would certainly rather him go there than a traditional power.

    I haven't been in a few months, but per emails I've been getting, it doesn't seem like lines have been as long on Thursdays and Fridays. I don't think there is anything really in lake highlands worth spending money on that I've found. I've only tried One90 once, and it was ok, but it's not that much closer than Cattleack from my location. Maybe I should give it another try though.
  24. I don't think it was as much getting guys work to keep them sharp, rather, that's what we have in the pen if we aren't using Sborz/Chapman/Leclerc. We've been extremely fortunate to play with the lead the entire playoffs generally with starters going deep. Last night is what it looks like when that doesn't happen. I'm pretty jealous of the stros relief options. I texted a buddy at the game right before first pitch I felt like we would need 8 or 9 runs to win last night and unfortunately I was right. Our bats haven't come out and taken over a game yet. Hopefully we see something resembling that tonight. Semien and Seager in particular have got to get it going.
