  1. 4.28 wut?
  2. This is one of my biggest pet peeves. Leaf-blowing has zero value, save maybe keeping sewer grates clean (and that's doubtful). Plus, horrible emissions from the gas-powered variety.
  3. Wife's sister is coming into town with her husband and son, and the son wants to see a UT baseball game. He has hopes of playing college ball. They could use anywhere from 2-4 tix. Anyone not able to make it in for this "early" (Thursday) game 1 and want to unload your tickets?
  4. So is that like a 5W-20 or what?
  5. Do you copy WaPo?
  6. Oh sure, what could go wrong?
  7. I wouldn't go THAT far, but she's definitely one of a kind. Ironically, she's actually very good with a bow and arrow. She tried out for the 2000 Olympic team but didn't make the cut.
  8. While I agree that Goldberg might have disclosed a bit too much of the actual military plans, I absolutely do not blame him for going public with such a huge security gaffe. But Hillary.
  9. The site linked below claims Q1 is defined as: So, the MSU sweep doesn't count (RPI 61), and the LSU series win doesn't count (RPI 38). Ole Miss (RPI 6) counts. Louisville doesn't (RPI 44). I checked a few other games -- nada. RPI calculation and quadrants RPI rankings
  10. Beard and Schloss were special cases -- one is a UT grad and the other is close friends with CDC. There is no analog in the current basketball coaching world, with the possible exception of Royal Ivey.
  11. Good luck? Any top end restaurant is surely booked at this point. I randomly checked Red Ash and the closest available time is Monday at 9:30 PM. Monday, April 7.
  12. This is one of the greatest food board threads ever.
  13. Yeah, at us. "Accidentally."
  14. I have no doubt that there is an abundance of wool to judge in College Station.
  15. I'm sorry, I can't stop laughing.
  16. He has 5.4 million reasons to not be worried about money.
  17. I think the concept of a "blueblood" is shifting. Sure, UNC and Duke aren't gonna sully their reputations with a guy like Beard, just as Texas wouldn't (now). But unless the NIL playing field gets leveled, the "bluebloods" are going to be Texas, Ohio State, Oregon, etc. and more than a few wouldn't think twice about hiring Chris Beard. More to the point, they'd be thrilled to land him.
  18. Well, (a) I don't know that record although I'm sure it's documented on this thread and (b) two different schools with different support structures (and I don't know which one might have the advantage there). But ultimately, I would say it's a small sample size and I'd prefer to look at Miller's record overall when comparing him to Shaka. Shaka wasn't on the list. Beard wasn't on the list. Barnes wasn't on the list. Hurley wasn't gonna move, Oats was very pricey, Otz is married to an Iowa girl, etc. etc. etc.
  19. Who exactly is a "Miller pumper"? Did you think we had a realistic shot to hire Dan Hurley, Jay Wright, Billy Donovan? No? Then who? Oats? Self? Really? Miller isn't particularly exciting, but he knows what he's doing in terms of basketball Xs and Os, and with UT's NIL support I think he stands a real good chance of doing damage.
  20. I didn't even know they had brick and mortar shops.
  21. How do you know who we contacted, much less offered?
  22. If you're so right all the time, why aren't you retired after making huge bank in Vegas instead of bumbling around in central Texas?
