  1. This thread is off topic like a motherfucker.
  2. Wtf does all this stupid ass “poor people suck, rich people are awesome” shit have to do with inflation again?
  3. I ignore a shitload of people and have had him on ignore in the past, but inevitably any thread he posts on then turns into pages of ignored comments with no actual content. It’s annoying as fuck. Fatty in the fishing thread is solid. Fatty in the gun nut thread is fine, although I don’t go in there. Fatty in CR is stupid as fuck, but the CR is a place where you’re kind of expecting to have to read through a bunch of stupid embarrassing shit, so he’s not alone. But this thread (at some points) has held some quality discussion and it’s annoying as fuck to have him wade in here and force me to click thru his absolute stupidity.
  4. @fattyflattieeverything you’ve said in this thread during the last 2 pages is stupid as fuck and I’m embarrassed for you. Is there any way you can not post on this thread anymore?
  5. Spoiler alert: those dudes aren’t as educated as you think they are. Bachelor degrees from A&M don’t mean shit.
  6. Any body got insight into the cause of the spread between PPI and CPI and when/if the gap is expected to close? PPI seems to be where it needs to be for rates to chill but Fed reacts to CPI afaik.
  7. Default probably gets unemployment high enough to warrant rate cuts within a months time. Default would be crazy and I’d bet against it but nothing about US politics shocks me anymore. US economic downside possibilities, next 30 days: Avian flu, debt ceiling broken, Ukrainian offensive failing Upside possibilities: Long term debt ceiling agreement, Ukrainian breakthrough
  8. The Fed has shown that they ignore everything except unemployment and inflation, which is their mandate. Their inflation target is 3% and the numbers are still coming in higher than that, while unemployment remains at historic lows. I will be very surprised if they don’t raise again next meeting, and keep raising 0.25% at a time until the YoY CPI comes in under 4%.
  9. Those dudes were WAY too cool about that. Fine if you want act cool to diffuse the situation while a guy is pointing a gun at you after firing at you, but if those dudes didn’t call the cops on that piece of shit they are doing society a great disservice.
  10. Looks awesome
  11. Returning (7): Disu, Hunter*, Cunningham, Anamekwe, Perryman, Bott, Clark Out (6): Carr, Rice, Allen, Bishop, Morris, Brumbaugh In (7): Abmas, Weaver, Sellers*, Rodman*, Onyemi, Shedrick, Prince G Hunter/Sellers/Prince G Abmas/Weaver/Perryman F Rodman/Anamekwe F Disu/Cunningham/Clark F Shedrick/Onyemi/Bott Thats a big lineup short on ball distributors but is a deep talented team that would score a lot and be good on defense.
  12. Whitley and Dubin are both injured as well down in the minors. Brutal.
  13. Starters: Hunter, Abmas, Cunningham, Disu, Shedrick Bench: Weaver, TBD transfer guard who is not on the radar yet, Anamekwe, Onyemi Walk-on’s: Prince, Perryman, Bott, Clark
  14. https://www.si.com/college/texas/mens-basketball/longhorns-chris-beard-jackson-prince-walk-on-commit-recruit-big-12
  15. Returning (6): Disu, Cunningham, Anamekwe, Perryman, Bott, Clark Out (6): Carr, Rice, Allen, Bishop, Morris, Brumbaugh In (5): Abmas, Weaver, Onyemi, Shedrick, Prince TBD (2): Hunter, Mitchell If we get Hunter and Mitchell back, this should be a Sweet 16 team. Up to 4 scholarships left.
  16. In some pretty damned risky territory. We have 5 scholarship players committed, and one of those guys (Anamekwe) projects as a pure bench/complimentary piece. To be a projected Sweet 16 team, we have to add at least 2 premium talents plus another 2 solid contributors. Sure, the 9 player roster posted above looks pretty good. But that would basically mean getting 90% of the talent we are hoping for. Shit is scary. Losing Holland was fucked.
  17. It’s gonna be France and it looks like it’ll only be for 1 start.
  18. I have no faith that they won’t change their policy, but I have been grandfathered into my donation level ($0) since I became a season ticket holder in 2007. My seats now require a $500/seat donation for people just starting out. So in theory buying sooner locks in your donation price so the only price increases would be for the actual ticket prices. But like I said it would not surprise me at all if they tell me to get fucked next season unless I donate the current required amount; they’ve shown they don’t actually gaf about loyalty. Which sucks but I understand.
  19. If they get Weaver and Hunter they will only add 2 more players, likely one defensive minded reserve G who ideally can also handle the ball, and one swing player; Mitchell would be ideal for that 2nd spot. They have 4 walk-ons already lined up so that would make 14 players on the roster. G Hunter*/TBD* G Abmas/Weaver*/Prince G Mitchell*/Anamekwe/Perryman F Disu/Cunningham/Bott F Shedrick/Holland/Clark That roster is arguably as good as the one that just went to the EE.
  20. Just about time for all them silly fucks who were talking shit about Julks, Meyers, Dubon, and Maton to step up and take their medicine.
  21. Of course. Just trying to see my way thru to the possibility of fielding a team close to as talented as this year’s.
  22. Ok, so: Returning (8): Hunter*, Disu, Mitchell*, Cunningham, Anamekwe, Perryman, Clark, Bott Out (6): Carr, Allen, Rice, Bishop, Morris, Brumbaugh In (6): Abmas*, Holland, Weaver*, Shedrick, TBD*, Prince
  23. Disu, Mitchell, Holland, Shedrick, and Cunningham would be on par or better than last season’s forwards. Add Hunter, Abmas, and another quality guard, and Sweet 16 would be a totally reasonable expectation.
  24. Comparing to last year’s roster and assuming we get Abmas and Hunter, I think they’d still be looking for 2 more players (1 backup PG and 1 role player with some size) to account for 30-35 minutes and 10-15 points per game. I am hopeful that Anamekwe can be the 7th or 8th man.
  25. It’ll be interesting to see how they handle the OF. They have 6 guys who seemingly deserve to play everyday and only 4 everyday spots. But who knows how McCormicks injury will affect him, and Meyers is playing very well right now.
