  1. Right there with you. I was in Dallas in '94. I think I watched the US/Colombia game at a sports bar; otherwise, I completely ignored the entire thing. Five years later, I'm traveling all over the East Coast to watch US Soccer games.
  2. Hell yeah. Just kidding. I probably shouldn't have used a sexist angle. It's just the stupid hot takes, from random pundits, these days. Like that idiot Doering. Ok, yes, Arch is probably overhyped, but to claim that some scrub transfer from Wash St. is going to win the Heisman is just stupid. Even if he's actually good, the offensive personnel around him isn't. It's a take that nobody will remember when OU goes 5-7 and Mateer gets sacked 7 times a game. Some of these folks are no better or informed than the average texags poster. /early Friday drinking takes
  3. My God. I'm all for equality and all, but can we nip (pun intended) a few of the women off ESPN? Someone by the name of Candy Maldonado (may have gotten the first name wrong) has an article about teams making or not making the playoffs. Of course, Texas is the team that she'd bet on to not make the playoffs. Fine. Cool. I have a couple of worries as well. Namely that Texas could lose at OSU and at GA, and only have room for one more loss to make the playoffs. But, she states that the Texas v aggy game is a coin flip. Fuck's sake.
  4. Seems like a definite repeat, doesn't it?
  5. I think it was one of Burton's bullet points on a previous page.
  6. I enjoyed it in a similar vein to the Taylor Sheridan series'. I gotta say. That's the worst final 5 minutes of a season finale that I've ever seen. "Oops. Sorry I stabbed you in the lung." Monty Python Prison Song
  7. That Doering idiot is still going on about Mateer. Good Lord.
  8. Yep. I became a vegetarian for a day after seeing the rabbit farm scene. But...Whataburger.
  9. Yes! Dark Crystal got me as well. Going back to Wizards, I was all, "Animated characters can be brutally killed? Is that even legal?"
  10. Yep. Again, she may be annoying and some words may need to be said; however, telling her to shut up is a tad much.
  11. I know stress of the situation and all, but I'll never understand why some can't control their behaviors/mouths knowing full well they're being filmed. Kel may be annoying as F, but as a man, you cannot speak to a woman the way Joe does. And yippee. The biggest puss on the show has a Texas tattoo the size of a nerf ball on his leg.
  12. Since we're doing this. Before my time, but as a 5 year-old my mom was kind enough to share the death scene from Darby O'Gille and the Little People. By the age of 8, I snuck downstairs just in time to see the babysitter put on an animated movie. Wizards. First PG13 movie. Dreamscape.
  13. 100% true. That was always perplexing to me when I lived in Knoxville. That is, Vol fans claiming that every other fanbase was/were hillbillies. Hell, their own fight song is about living in the hills and making moonshine.
  14. Opus. It's an A24 movie on HBOMax. Very Midsommer-ish. John Malkovich is in it. 8 out of 10.
  15. Agree. I was disappointed that this year's Tour didn't have a gravel stage (like last year), but this made up for it. I didn't know if the change until watching it today, so it was a pleasant surprise. The final stage - other than the pomp and circumstance - is usually pretty boring to me. I like mountains.
  16. I thought about starting a thread to ask how common this is. The last two funerals I've attended have been sports themed. My cousin's aggy funeral in 2016, which I've written about on here. *Story spoilered below for those that have seen it. Very awkward. Last week's funeral was a friend of mine from Knoxville. I lived there for 20 years before returning to Texas in 2017. Anyway, both funerals requested attendees to honor the sports teams associated with the deceased.
  17. Tl;dr ... OU is poor.
  18. Still pissed at Dad's comment when he joined Barnes at TN. Something about, "This shade of orange is much better than burnt orange.". I know he was playing the crowd, but f that.
  19. Lol. I was just up there this past weekend for a funeral. It was Vol, Dolphin, Magic, and Vikings themed. I had to wear a Vol shirt; however, I donned the Texas hat. Back on task. I'm on one of the Vol boards right now. There's a screenshot of a tweet where someone is stating Nico was one of many that were unhappy. Boo's mom chimed in in agreeance by posting, "Finally! Somebody said it!" What a mess. Lol at Heupel and the Vols. Sorry to my wife, friends, and the cool poster on here.
  20. Lulz. Without knowing about this thread, I just showed my mom the end of Signs and The Sixth Sense. When I read @Parliament's post, my brain got really confused. /wine
  21. It's out somewhere. I got my via my subscription to Dave Campbell's almost a month ago.
  22. I can't believe the two largest DFW sports franchises are run by Jerry Jones and Nico Harrison.
  23. Hits far from home as I'm in Tennessee this weekend.
  24. The trailer also shows 11 in a skin suit for a split second. I think the fun bags are coming out.
  25. Agree. And funny that the trailer has a scene where they're still riding bikes.
