  1. I get what you said about teachers, but am laughing because that's the opposite of me. Believe it or not, the jury I served on was commandeered by two flight attendants fitting that description.
  2. If he's a new hire, then he probably doesn't have union insurance. I'm not entirely sure how this works in most fields, but teachers are encouraged to join a union to have coverage if sued. I don't do politics, so I joined an apolitical union precisely for protection.
  3. Good. I'm a teacher. I don't want to be picked. Don't get me wrong. I'm all about doing my part. It's just that I called in to criminal court, and I don't want to see pics of murder scenes or hurt children.
  4. Yep. This is a good one. I think back to when I was a kid and my parents were, say, 31 and 30. (Would have put me at 8 years old.) Anything that came out of their mouths was completely unquestioned. Didn't matter the topic, perspective, or context. It had to be absolutely 100% correct. I'm older than them now. I can't believe anyone listens to anything I say. I have no idea what's going on half the time.
  5. 0-1 in elementary school. I smarted off to a kid much bigger than me. My friends warned me, but I didn't listen. Took two punches in in like 1/10 of a second. Proud to say I didn't back down or cry. 10 minutes later we were friends, playing football. 2-0 in middle school. 0-0-1 in college. I got into a braw on the intramural brother fields. Some dude dude from Sigma Chi (I think) spiked a ball on my friend's head, I punched him, and the benches cleared. They did an all-call over the intercom to get all the other field refs to break up the brawl.
  6. Since this is now the Golden Corral thread, I'll add my own .2 cents. We used to eat there once a week ... AND in Knoxville. My oldest son has a few food allergies which made this place the ideal as he was actually able to get more than one type of food. It's not that bad. I'd rather deal with fat rednecks over the snobs in Uptown (Dallas). I did pass on the chocolate tower, though.
  7. No idea why, but I'm still laughing at this 5 mins later. I'm doing the "buy some gold/silver" each month plan as well. Right now, I'm mainly stacking 1 oz silver coins.
  8. Just a request. Can we just get up 23 midway through the 4th, then allow two trash scores in the last 5 mins please?
  9. He may not have meant to, but I see it another way. He's managing to trash Dumbo and aggy in one sentence. He's built a championship roster and can barely get his team above .500. And, Only Dumbo's snake oil and past glory can get players to actually acknowledge College Station.
  10. Anyone got a link to stream?
  11. Sure would be nice to not have bitch ass spectrum right now. Keep posting. I guess I'll follow via the comments.
  12. Yep. They're daring you to throw it short. Of course, dumbass did.
  13. Stupid fucking QB and coach.
  14. I get your point, but I still think kicking it deep after being up 20 may have been the straw. Stop them there, don't get screwed by the refs, and we're fine in the 2nd. Granted, it's all hypothetical, so you prob have a better argument.
  15. My issue with the call was less with the eventual final score and more with giving KSt momentum. They were down and dead at that point. You give them a glimmer of hope, you end up in OT games.
  16. Tha fuck does TX and Dallas always run routes short of the marker?
  17. Well said. Isn't it amazing that Texas has 2-3 possible future NFL 1st day picks on the d-line, but Big12 teams never hold? I mean, we must be going up against Larry Allen, Anthony Munoz, Bruce Matthews, Mark Stepnoski, and Joe Thomas each week.
  18. I was too much of a pussy to watch live, so I was watching ESPN Gamecast. Was the holding by Texas on the FG drive bad? I saw folks bitching on the thread, but didn't see the play. To add, legit or not, I did find it humorous that the refs finally see a hold when it screws TX on a potential game-winning drive.
  19. I did the same. I watched the ESPN Gamecast. Funny side note that I didn't want to jinx TX by posting at the time... Gamecast had Texas with a 100% chance of winning at the end of regulation.
  20. And LOL. I'm watching the end of the aggy game. They lost as flukily as we won. There were two plays on Ole Miss's last drive in which the QBs arm was hit, causing the ball to float 30 feet in the air for anyone to catch. The 2nd ended up being a PI on aggy.
  21. Good job PK. Great 2nd half defense.
  22. holding goddmmit
  23. Let it fucking roll a bit idiot.
