  1. i am fine.. it just makes you realize how much shit (within your control and not within your control) has to go right just to get to the precipice of a National Championship Final. beating Alabama away (although this was completely in our control) the spot of the ball by the officials at the UH game Kansas St. going for 2 in OT (and failing) Alabama beating Georgia in the SEC Final weird clock management, series of events, penalties, etc. that gave Texas 50 seconds at our 35 instead of 15 seconds at our own 20, in the semi-final National Championships are rare (for most)
  2. Right? An Ivy League grad should know where to put the apostrophe.
  3. Happy New Year FYI.... 7 straight days of Domestic Cup matches starting tomorrow - all matches televised on ESPN+ FA Cup 3rd round - matches on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday League Cup - Semi-Final, Leg 1 - Tuesday (Middlesbrough v. Chelsea), Wednesday (Liverpool v. Fulham)
  4. I mean in reality, Texas’ National title hopes were done when Brooks tore his ACL vs TCU.
  5. OL at fault for this. Totally shitting the bed. Errors, penalties. Cant get out of our own way.
  6. Norwich 1 - 1 Southampton hard fought point away 4th match in 10 days - 3 wins, 1 draw 18 match unbeaten streak! (haven't lost since Sept 23rd) in 3rd Place - 3 points behind 2nd place Ipswich
  7. oh, let me guess.. Liverpool must be playing.
  8. Good to see Bob hasn’t fixed his jacked up pinky in his retirement. fond memories of it flapping in the breeze while clapping on the OU sidelines.
  9. so mid-season update on the Championship table. Leicester on a record pace (59 points so far) Southampton 5 points away 2nd place. 2 points separates 7 teams from a playoff spot (6th place) the 3 relegated PL teams all with good chance for being promoted back. 22 matches left FYI - all 24 teams play this Friday (3 of them on TV - ESPN+)
  10. Happy Boxing Day, y'all. Southampton 5 - 0 Swansea dominating performance Super Sub Wee Man with 2 goals Edozie is coming good (3 goals in the last 4 matches) Clean Sheet (3 in a row) 10 for / 0 allowed goals in last 3 matches 16 match unbeaten streak! (haven't lost since Sept 23rd) moved up to 3rd place - Ipswich in our sights
  11. My convictions were forged in the crucibles? you know some hateful shit was going to follow that And who talks like that? I don’t know anyone who talks like that I guess they don’t run in my circles
  12. i am guessing they just took a typical wrestling ring dimensions and reduced it by 50%, making the actors look huge. movie magic.
  13. Do you every think this Harvard and Princeton graduate ever reflects on the type of life he leads?
  14. This comes as a poll shows Biden within striking distance of turning Texas blue.
  15. I feel like I have seen half a dozen motion penalties on Philadelphia that have not been called. a lot.
  16. Southampton 4 - 0 Blackburn a clean sheet and 4 goals.. what?! the unbeaten run continues at 14 matches. Well, that was not expected. Despite all that.. 13 points off 1st Place Leicester
  17. I thought i had weird musical tastes in High School (my classmates sure thought i did), but my teenage son is listening to some pretty interesting stuff lately. He texts me youtube links every now and then for me to peruse. Here are 3 recent ones he sent me. Margin for Error, The Field Sweet Trip (which honestly, i should have been listening to 20 years ago)
  18. i enjoyed the 3 episode doc "Love Has Won: The Cult of Mother God" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Has_Won:_The_Cult_of_Mother_God I don't know what it is about cults, but i find them infinitely interesting. People be crazy. That NXIVM documentary a few years back was bonkers.
  19. FSU had been playing terribly, but still winning. You cant know what their team will look like 4 weeks from now. It really should have been easy for the committee. You take the 5 conf champions and look what they have done; not what they might do 4 weeks from now. 3 unbeaten conference champs? Awesome, you are in. the other 2 conference champs have a 1 loss. Hmm, how do we choose who goes between the two? Oh you say they actually played head to head earlier the season? OK. That winner is in. DONE.
  20. the committee watching that abortion last night sealed FSU's fate.
  21. doesnt make sense if metric #1 is : conference champ and undefeated (1 Mich, 2 Wash, 3 FSU) metric#2 being: a 1 loss conference champ (4 Texas, 4 Alabama) metric #3 : head to head (4 Texas)
  22. Jesse Palmer has really been talking Texas up during the game, as the Committee watches this mess. "why schedule games like Alabama if they are not going to matter?"
