  1. I’ve been told with authority by an internet poster that isn’t at all unhinged that softball pitchers have unlimited bullets. Fatigue isn’t a thing.
  2. I think Mike White fucked Great Hornsby’s wife, and then fucked Great Hornsby.
  3. Thats stupid. tk was shaky in the first inning last night. Most guys are shaky when they get in. Mac was tonight. I don’t want to bring in a new pitcher with the bases fucking loaded.
  4. Fuck this bitch. Plunk her.
  5. Delayed to 750 due to weather
  6. I don’t follow mlb. But I wanted to punch his face on her IG. I’m sure that wasn’t jealousy, however.
  7. "This girl isn't Livvy Dunne" - SydneyCarton in his original post "Hey, that girl isn't close to Livvy Dunne." - Helobious, ever the fucking idiot. We're all glad you felt the need to type all that out in agreement, although now the fact you agree with me haunts me. If you had read my post, you'd see me compare her to former UT player Lauren Burke, who demonstrably had a fuck ton of corporate sponsorships while playing Softball for Texas in Austin. The post is as much about the availability of corporate money in Austin for attractive softball players. It has nothing to do with Livvy Dunne, other than saying "she's not livvy dunne" in the first part of the post, you fucking stupid non-reading fuck. I'm glad you had to look her up, despite me literally including a picture in the post. Are you fucking blind too?
  8. Yes you are. It's the illustration. First off, you're completely mistaken at the idea that "funds are separate from football." Texas One Fund handles a ton of NIL for all the different sports, while football is certainly prioritized, guess what, unless that money is designated to a specific sport, it's going to football first and foremost. Additionally, the funds come from Boosters. Period. A guy who gave his maximum amount for the year has given his maximum amount. The "Just ask someone else" Fallacy is just that, because OU is already going around whining about how fucking poor they are, and how they can't compete. Period. It's not because they're sitting on a ton of funds and the athletic department just hasn't asked for more money the right way. But you're really missing the actual point. You can speculate their booster and NIL funds all you want, and you can apply whatever logic you want to the situation, but that is completely IMMATERIAL to the perception that recruits have...which is "You found million dollars for a softball player, but you won't find market value for my son?" It doesn't matter the circumstances, the reality, just like it doesn't matter that our football NIL roster didn't cost 45 million dollars...Kirk Bohls said it, and now the perception is the reality, and we have to deal with it. And that narrative would be a problem for OU.
  9. You're deliberately not acknowledging the point.
  10. Let me illustrate even easier for JS1: "You paid a softball player 1 million dollars, but you're telling me you can't pay a million dollars for my 5 star QB kid? Well ok." And we should be cheering for it to happen. That being said it's apparently all for 'naught.
  11. Pickens can come to Texas and earn half a million on fucking instagram endorsements. She's not Livvy Dunne, but she's fucking smoking hot. I bet she could easily make Lauren Burke money, and she had a fucking assload of sponsorships while at UT. She had an athleisure company paying her, an energy drink company paying her, and apparently Qualcomm technologies. H&R Block. Lifesum. Listen, I'm just scrolling through her instagram at this point, for you guys, because it was extremely painful to learn that Lauren Burke is now married to some chode and pregnant. I make this sacrifice for you, surly. Anyway, the point is, Pickens is hot enough to get a good fucking chunk of corporate money in Austin. More than pretty much any other city, I'd wager.
  12. Who is this HuttNuts character stanning for Satya in your rep?
  13. Funny. I had complete certainty that no one was going to step up on the UT side. Honestly I'm surprised that Clark Field Collective and some others also showed up. Sort of.
  14. I’d have to see the street. They said it was a 4 lane road man. My cul de sac is right off a busy 4 lane road that frequently has 18 wheelers barrelling down it, and a small median with trees, and no lights for at least a mile. If a kid jumped out behind one of those, I can easily see someone not being able to stop in time. and the article said “the 10 year old tried to hold him back.” To me that screams the car was fairly close.
  15. And it’s punitive by people with no perceivable vested emotional interest in the outcome. What do the police gain here? Im not saying I’d let my seven year old walk 2 blocks alone. But I’d probably consider it with a 10 year old if he was responsible. I used to ride my bike to and from elementary school that had to be 3 miles away when I was 10. I rode bikes around my neighborhood from 7-12. I walked home from middle school every day. That’s hardly a far cry from this. The parents of every latchkey kid posting here would have been toast.
  16. I will probably give those a spin, but I must say, they remind me of these from my childhood and they sucked hard:
  17. I mean, I wasn't going to lose sleep over it. Just curious if the dude would defend the position that watching Tuesday games for Texas wasn't a fucking drink-inducing affair for many of us.
  18. The ole' Breathless Mahoney. In related news, Dickless Baloney would be a good nickname name for Mike Elko.
  19. Why's ole' rex negging you on this one? The team had a great year, but more than a handful of Tuesday losses, and many of their games were fucking nail-biters? Why wouldn't I have to drive through that?
  20. Lol. You guys think Elon is trying to win people back, or doing an about face for his companies. He's literally bitching about a spending bill being too full of pork, which is a hardline R position. He's basically just parroting his DOGE position of "cut cut cut." He's not winning anyone back with that, he's just being the same tone-deaf consistent twat he's been for awhile.
  21. We’re not going to win ‘em all. But we’re going to make them all pay for ‘em.
