  1. Keep the wimmens in the kitchen, Butlicker makes it!
  2. Mahomes still can't throw a deep ball for shit.
  3. Goddamn but do the refs love throwing laundry week one of the season.
  4. That DT they picked up for Micah has totally stopped the run by now, right? Right?
  5. Yeah, none of this is that complicated, but it's time to pile on and get the hot take in now to drive views. You had a kid who has never started a big game, going into one of the toughest environments in college football, against one of the best defenses in the country, and had to do it Week 1 with no tune ups. He was nervous and keyed up and so his mechanics went to shit. The hilarious part of all of this is people acting like he played miserably the entire time. Like he threw 4 INTs, fumbled all over the place, got sacked a dozen times, and had no idea what he was doing. In reality, he took care of the ball fairly well, showed his mobility, and was just off on his throws a bit. I've seen much worse performances against much worse teams from plenty of past Longhorn QBs. Including the one we just shipped off to basically be Mr. Irrelevant in the Draft. Arch didn't anoint himself as a generational talent. No one from the team from Sark on down did either, as far as I'm aware. That was all just BS content creation by the sports media. This kid was supposed to come out game one of the season against the defending nat'l champs in their house and look like Prime VY or Cam Newton? Was that the deal? Did either of his uncles look that way back when they were in college? It's been awhile, but I seem to remember both of them being kinda shit for awhile until they got some experience under their belts. We're going to mudhole San Jose St., UTEP, Sam Houston, Florida, the Land Thieves, Kentucky, Miss. St., and Vandy and everyone will be back on the Arch Manning bandwagon. Then the Georgia game will be the true litmus test for where Arch is as a QB. Hopefully by that time Sark has pulled his head out of his ass and figured out how to call plays in the redzone.
  6. It's weird, because it's like Sark doesn't even understand his own personnel or the defenses he's going up against. If you have Tim Tebow or even if this was back in the Henry Melton/Swoopes era, ok maybe. And even Urban was smart enough to start incorporating the jump ball pass when it was obvious ol' Timmy was going to be diving right off center. But Arch ain't that guy. He's more quick than he is powerful. And OSU is kinda strong up the middle. They were last year when they stonewalled us on the same shitty plays. Dude just goes completely brain dead once the team gets near the goal line. It was a problem for him in the NFL, too, and one of the main reasons he got axed from the Falcons. You'd think this genius level offensive mind would have figured it out by now.
  7. Everyone has been flipping out about Arch having a sub-par game, yet I'm really not worried about him in the least. It's Sark's miserable decision making that's been our Achilles heel and it doesn't seem like it's going to get better anytime soon. Take the points or just decide to make some smarter decisions besides run it up the gut repeatedly on the goal line and we win that game easily.
  8. If we end up winning this game after how awful it has been all day on offense? The media shit storm will be insane.
  9. Well, at least we didn't get shut out!
  10. Same ol' Sark. Someone let him know he doesn't have Tim fucking Tebow at QB.
  11. Authoritative runs and short passes. I'm fine with it. Just keep moving the ball.
  12. Honestly, I hope Arch improves in the second half just for his own sanity. It's going to be a hellscape for him on Monday in the sports media world if he continues to play this poorly.
  13. Starting to think this whole narrative about Sark being an offensive playcalling genius and a QB whisperer might just be a load of baloney.
  14. He doesn't look confident in anything right now.
  15. He has good plays? At this point I'd be willing to ask GDGD for his coloring book back.
  16. Good to know our offense is still undisciplined as shit.
  17. Football is back AND Trump might be dead? Be still my beating heart!
  18. Yeah, any spin on this besides Jerry Jones being a fucking idiot is laughable. If you truly wanted to deal Micah, you do it before the Draft when teams have more resources and you can spend the picks pronto. If you're trading away a future HoFer in his prime at one of the most important positions in football, why the fuck are you paying tippy-top dollar for Dak and CeeDee? Are you rebuilding or are you trying to be competitive now? Plus you've got a brand new coach and you've dumped this in his lap a week before the season starts. I'm sure he's thrilled about that. If I was anyone at the top of the Cowboy's org I'd be looking to have Jerry sent to the nursing home and getting power of attorney. Non compos mentis.
  19. Yep. Oleksandr Usyk, the Undisputed Cruiserweight champ turned 2x Undisputed HW champ and widely considered the best boxer on the planet today and an all-time great, is from Crimea. He is their most famous and popular sports person. He reps Ukraine constantly. He runs charities to help victims of the war and to rebuild apartments and the like. Is photoed with Zelenskyy constantly. Had his HW belt brought to the White House when Zelenskyy made his visit and has shown up here to talk to people in Congress. And that dude still speaks Russian and has complicated interview questions in English translated to him in Russian.
  20. Nah, Putin was way ahead of the curve on that one. He had the place torn down before Ukraine could pump it full of drones. https://www.newsweek.com/russia-putin-sochi-palace-1964916
  21. Dude is 38 years old. Just dominated a guy 11 years younger than him who was coming off of three KO wins. Made it look easy. I really think they pissed Usyk off by calling him a liar, a cheat, and a fake Christian while pushing that narrative that the low-blow was actual legal in his and Dubois' first fight. DON'T PUSH THE HORSES! No one left for Usyk to fight, really. Parker is his next mandatory, but Parker doesn't have a chance in hell of winning that fight. Kabayel might be interesting because he stops guys to the body, but I doubt he'd come close, either. Man has really just completed boxing. Top 10 HW of all-time for my money. One of the top P4P fighters in the history of the sport, too. Nobody better in the history of the sport at managing a fight and winning rounds. Phenomenal feet, hands, chin, stamina, heart, and IQ. Only thing he's truly lacking is one-punch KO power, but now that he's bulking up a bit and sitting on his shots, well, you see what he did in this fight. And he does it all on the road!
