  1. I wonder if FOX is aware there are other Irish singers other than U2?
  2. She makes any game better.
  3. Please note I said person, therefore an independently functioning sentient being. aggy would not be included.
  4. There isn't a person anywhere on this earth that would put any of their facilities in the top 5 in the country. Honestly probably not even in the top 25.
  5. And we haven't even started on the up/down-sides of chemical yet either! For the record I do NOT find the lessened property damage from removing water from the equation to be worth the risk of having no reserves after your initial discharge of the agent. There was a Southwestern Bell facility in the early 90s in, I believe, Waco that was hit by a truck of some sort at a very high rate of speed. After the Halon discharge escaped through the gaping hole in the facility there was no automatic system to suppress the fire. I know my opinion is controversial.
  6. Honestly based on his USC days I could get behind a "Sark THE PLAYA" argument.
  7. I feel like the last decade or so has left us all so beaten down that we are incapable of knowing when we are on an upward trajectory. Maybe we are. Maybe we are being ear fucked. Who knows. Kind of like the dorky guy said on the last episode of The Office. We need a way to know it is the good old days of getting better before they are gone.
  8. To be fair for a wet system or an older dry system removing a head (by hitting it) would cause water to flow to that head. If the system had a preaction interlock you'd have to trip to a smoke to get water to the pipe but I highly doubt any building maintained by state government that isn't brand new or a data center has a preaction system.
  9. That is the most Mack response I've ever heard from someone not named Mack Brown.
  10. Yup and the last several years our Big 12 schedule has been harder than their SEC schedule once you adjust for their automatic L to bama.
  11. So what's the upside to the Ireland game? The NFL I sort of get - there's exposure to the NFL overseas and they are trying to get that guy in London or Mexico City or whatever to want to buy a cowboys jacket and tune in every Sunday when the Cowboys are back in the US of A. College football isn't as accessible overseas outside of streaming platforms. Is the thought here that people in Dublin are suddenly going to become rapid Nebraska fans?
  12. Wide receivers with ice on their hands. That's super ideal.
  13. Wait people still listen to that choad?
  14. This is true of almost all of aggy's so-called big recruits and you have to give Jimbo credit: pumping recruits he knows he can bag to the media is something he's at which he's become a master. When you really look at the numbers, though, it's funny just how mediocre most of the recruits in the their OMG BEST RECRUITING CLASS IN HISTORY are. They were able to use the momentum from bagging overrated players nobody else wanted to actually get a few players other teams were interested in. As much as it pains me to say it....it is a brilliant strategy and really their only option. When you have shit facilities, haven't been relevant in 25 years, aren't selling out your awful stadium, and are a giant question mark both in terms of potential NCAA punishment for NIL violations and very well might be left without a date when the dust settles from conference realignment with our program finally bringing in the Texas-based eyeballs the SEC wants, you do what you have to do.
  15. They'll do both CBS and Fox games if the interest is there and given the other games that weekend you don't really have too many other showdowns. The problem is their tendency to want to spread around Game Day and we also have potential big national interest in our ou, osu, and baylor games. We aren't getting Game Day 4 times in a year so they'll skip at least a few of those games.
  16. "No advise too meaningless"
  17. With the #3 NIL fund shouldn't they, you know, win at some point?
  18. I'm mostly with this analysis. I think ou/baylor is 1-1 and OSU is kryptonite. That said I think bama is a W. they lost the NC last year and lost a bunch of talent. Saban doesn't typically do the whole bravado thing and he's certainly doing that this year. I think he's burnt out and realizes he doesn't have that good of a team so he's trying to do what he can to keep recruiting up and keep the media under the tent with him. Sark also tends to peak early in a season so I see him smashing teeth for the first few games, which includes a W over bama. That said I think the grind of conference play causes some whiffs down the stretch. I'm thinking OSU is an L, one of baylor/ou is an L, and then we drop one or two surprise conference games toward the end of the season to crush our collective spirits. So 8-4, maybe 9-3 heading in to bowl season.
  19. This couldn't be truer. Here's a cool story bro. My wife has a best friend from her undergrad at Brown. We met during grad school. Her friend married an aggy working, at the time somewhere outside of San Marcos. aggy ends up starting some kind of trucking company and starts "making" some kind of industrial metal parts. Fast forward a few decades and I still have to see this hillbilly whenever we are in their current town. His business has done well and they try to portray themselves as respectable and able to hold conversation with us. They've invested heavily in this area too - ranch in the hill country, a plane, a couple ski houses, etc. At the end of the day the guy just isn't that smart - he's a laborer who marshaled other laborers to get to where he is and his inferiority complex burns pretty damn bright when the adults start talking. Telling a truck to go from point A to B and back to A or bending a pipe at a 45 degree angle doesn't require any actual brainpower no matter how much he wants us to believe it does. aggy as a whole are like this and it is an embarrassment that only reinforces our state's redneck image. Just because their university is large they think it is this beacon of intellect and it isn't. They are graduates of a trade school who feel the need to try to equate themselves to intellectuals. Other, smaller, intellectually inferior schools don't feel the need to do this. It's sad for them but damning for the rest of us that call Texas home.
  20. YEAH WHITE TRASH!!!! WE WENT TO SCHOOL FOR 4 YEARS TO BE A LABORER!!!! WHOOOOOOP
  21. I don't have a crystal ball here but I remember a lot of people saying the same thing about Saban when he fizzled at Miami 15 years ago.
  22. Honestly Fisher leaving might have been a blessing for aggy. Once we join the SEC aggy won't bring any TV eyeballs to the conference. AS has been mentioned on here multiple times most SEC teams have their lowest rated conference game against aggy....I think Vanderbilt was the exception a few years ago. I wouldn't be surprised if they get the boot in a few years with some buyout. They will probably be stupid enough to NOT spend that buyout getting rid of expensive but completely mediocre coach and all of us Texas taxpayers will get the benefit of bailing them out. Hopefully the end result though is they end up G5 where a school with their "tradition" belongs.
  23. Wow. This one caught me off guard
