  1. She's awesome. If y'all knew much about @Jameslaw121 and me, you'd find it amazing that we both have wonderful wives who have stuck with us. Like most of Surly, we're def pains in the ass.
  2. Dammit. For some reason I've had the theme song stuck in my head today. Finally gone, then I see this thread. Thanks.
  3. Traveling peeps to TX/OU that plan on taking the train... Do NOT travel through downtown. Park in one of the stations south of the fair. My son and I walked right on the mostly empty train, got to our car, then drove to Rowlett within an hour of leaving the fair. Walked by hordes of folks trying to get on the northbound trains.
  4. Lol. I was waiting to catch up on the Giro before posting about how boring it was. Disclaimer: I slept through all the drama of Stage 16. Stage 20 made up for all the ennui. Amazing job by Yates.
  5. Lol from both Dad and me.
  6. I don't get why our wing players are always marked, but the Swiss are receiving passes on the wing with 20 yards of space. And there's absolutely no pressure on the passer.
  7. Lulz. Half the field players benched.
  8. Golden Girls reruns?
  9. Arfsten still dangering young children in the stands with his shot.
  10. Wow. Arfsten got beat 3 times on that play. And 8 million dollar Turner.
  11. How bout we all just stand around and watch the Swiss score. Is that the game plan?
  12. Yay team.
  13. Aaronseon brothers starting.
  14. Great. We suck and can't get along. Pochettino is all, "I've made a huge mistake".
  15. I don't know how they deal with that heat. I'm pretty active and tend to somewhat overdo it when playing sports, cycling, working in the yard, etc... But, I walk right into a cold shower and AC. I can't imagine getting that hot, then just sitting in it. Props to Trish and Laura. It's one thing to tough shit out. But, when you add in pain and injuries and still want to stay - pretty impressive.
  16. Very well stated. This is one reason why I think Phil Steele is still worth the price. (As I noted, I'm just a creature of habit in buying the other mags.) I first noticed, what you are speaking to, with Dave Campbells several years ago. They always have a section containing the "best" college players in Texas. They go out of their way to ensure that every team in the state has at least one player listed. It got really ridiculous about 4 years ago when they had North Texas and UTSA (going off memory; could be off) with more on the state 1st and 2nd team than Texas or aggy. One thing the mags aren't handling very well is the portal. They don't seem to know how to account for starters lost v. starters gained from the portal. In the past, a returning starter was bolded, and it was obvious if this was going to be a major or minor loss. Now, they're just bolding returning starters coming back to the same team. There is no accounting for improvement from the portal other than the occasional blurb re: one or two incoming players. Tech, for example, looks like shit per the current format but most agree they've upgraded their roster.
  17. I don't think we're going to win the World Cup next year.
  18. We seem to have several of those.
  19. I'm cool with a tad less skill and more heart. Served us well until the mid 2010's.
  20. Thx. No idea what's going on. My guide has pregame until kickoff at 3:10. Turn it on and I've missed the goal and the first ten mins.
  21. Is she supposed to float and tag from the air? Wtf?
  22. I'm not watching Ng this creepy cow's yogurt.
  23. Oh, never mind. It's God awful Beth Mowins. Makes sense now.
  24. Casual fan here. Go Horns. Question. Does ESPN really, really want Tech to win? I've never seen a team up 7 so completely ignored. More shots of Tech's million dollar pitcher please. Can't get enough of those.
  25. Speaking of, I was wondering why nobody spoke of killing a kangaroo on this season's Last One Standing. I was under the impression that they were basically considered large rats in Australia. Quick search shows only specific hunters with a specific license can hunt them.
