Spurs 2025 Off Season Thread - Popping Off
In total I’ve lived here almost half my life, including the past 12 years in a row. So I think I know what I’m talking about. The vast majority of people here don’t give a shit about basketball or the spurs, especially with how bad they are now. Most people will say their favorite team is the spurs but they don’t go to or watch the games, or follow the team. Nowadays if I see a guy with a spurs tat or a bunch of spurs gear my first thought is he’s an orejon, not a big spurs fan. Their connection with the city is gone and the France and Austin shit sealed it.

Spurs 2025 Off Season Thread - Popping Off
Us taxpayers are. Tourism is down and dying by the day, yet we say we’re going to fund this with a tourism tax? What if the money doesn’t come as fast as expected? The spurs have no obligation to pay anything for this despite what they say. The fact that they don’t want an independent analysis done on this says everything. It’s well known that taxpayers never make their money back financing new stadiums, we’re the ones that will get fucked. Several economists have laughed at the gaudy projections the spurs have put out. It’s not happenening, they’re not even a good team and the fan support is as low as I’ve ever seen in my time here. They can go to Austin for all we care.

Anyone else watching the city council meeting? Revolving door of people speaking out against the new arena. Couple that with all the online chatter, I think political suicide for the mayor would be letting this deal happen. No one wants to pay more in taxes so billionaires can get a free arena. If the spurs want to leave they can leave.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Alabama, probably the most consistently good CFB program of all time after Ohio State, is now done for. Got it. I had my doubts on Debauer but that recruiting ranking doesn’t lie. They’re still well above us in terms of a place top recruits want to play.

B1G catch all thread
Nebraska is getting a lot of buzz this off-season from CFB YouTubers and redditors, not necessarily for this season but as a program of the future. It really seems like they’re primed to become a giant again in the NIL and expanded playoff era. Solid showing this year should get it rolling.

Go to any in the valley and see if you still believe that. If you want better pizza down there you need to go to an actual pizza spot. I imagine among fast food pizza up here it’s also at the top. I’m not saying it’s Dough or Il Forno or Fralos. But is it better than Pizza Hut, Dominos, Cicis, and Little Caesars? Yes.

Judge just hit homer #40. Crazy given how many games he’s missed this year.

2025 Little League World Series
Unreal Hawaii fucking lost. Also, today I learned that Honolulu Little League is literally the only little league in Honolulu. It covers the entire city of 350k people. No wonder they always do so good.

Unironically really fucking good pizza. RGV people know.

The place off 35 by the horsetracks? I pass it often and I’ve never seen one customer there. Surprised it hasn’t closed.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
In my defense, this is what I was basing it on. It only lists 1 offer as well. I had no idea he was the top player in the state. Still, getting the top in state player once in 25 years is abysmal. I guess growing up there you would want to see some place different for college but damn.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
He wasn’t a top recruit at all, he was par for the course for who they usually sign. He just turned out to be really good

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
It’s kind of amazing Hawaii has never gotten even just one top recruit from there to play for them, ever. Even Houston got Ed Oliver.

The Yogurt Shop Murders: HBO Max
I saw the first episode of this and thought it was decent, haven’t seen anything in here to make me want to keep watching. Which is disappointing, I had high hopes because HBO has made some amazing docs

This was so much better when it was a 16 team tourney

He actually did go to NC as a freshman, then transferred and started at burleson as a sophomore, to now transferring back to NC as a junior. Isn’t it European soccer where teams loan out their younger players to lesser teams for more playing experience? Gates is revolutionizing HS football.

Typical UIL bullshit. I already had a write up for him in my Helo’s Homies note and now I need to replace him with someone

I was just thinking how mild the summer has been here too. We’ve only hit 100 a dozen or so days.

Tell me about Texas Tech
I remember watching this on TV as a kid when it happened. Interesting playcall. “Just chuck a 40 yard rainbow bomb towards the DB punt returner. They’ll never see it coming”.

The current SB success rate is like 80%. If more people try it and it ends up going down to like 70% that still seems well worth it.

SA pretty much only has Mexican-Americans. They were born and raised there and even their grandparents were for the most part. There’s some Mexicans but not many. Holy shit at thinking mi Tierra or the mercado resemble anything in Mexico. Houston on the other hand has far more people actually from Mexico, and you’ll find way more Spanish speakers over there as well.
