  1. I was just so happy to see Albert Brooks on the show. Nice tribute to Bob.
  2. ESPN2 has been choppy all day on my Uverse— it looked the same way during the Euro broadcast earlier. Seems better when I use the ESPN app on my Roku.
  3. Has anyone else noticed that this new Bally Sports broadcast doesn't show batter stats on even a semi-regular basis? They have this fucking ridiculous ticker at the bottom of the screen and it does show stats during the batter's first AB of the game-- but after that, NADA (but I certainly know what time the LA Kings and San Jose Sharks are dropping the puck). There's a pitch count tracker throughout and it will tell me the current batter is 1-3 tonight, but you never see an average or any other stats after that first AB. I've checked out other regional Bally broadcasts on my MLB subscription and they all have a chyron that shows average, RBIs, HRs etc throughout the game-- you know, the usual shit we see every time a batter comes to the plate on every baseball broadcast since 1960. This is driving me nuts. Yes, I know I can pull it up on my fucking phone in real time. But I shouldn't have to do that. It should be on my screen, just like it is for all the fuckheads who watch the Twins on Bally Sports Minnesota and the Astros on Bally Sports Trashcan. I suppose one could argue that maybe the Ranger organization doesn't WANT you to see Joey Gallo's current batting average...but c'mon, man.
  4. Greg Brown retweeted the staff tweet. Hmmmmm...
  5. Yay! I can watch Texas hoops again! I've been following games on my phone for 4 years because I haven't been able to stomach actually watching us play.
  6. I was there in 2004. An 8-year-old told me to fuck off. I enjoyed the victory.

    These are all original pressings. I never did get my hands on a good copy of "Rid of Me," unfortunately. PJ is easily my favorite artist of the '90s.
  8. This commitment makes me really happy. My nephew was a senior DB for Flower Mound during the 2019 season so I attended all of the games, and Auburn has a really strong leg. He's also a really nice kid.
  9. That 22-point loss to a decent-but-not-great Xavier team didn't do them any favors, but they have played very well since then.
  10. "Chug-a-lug, pooh bear!"
  11. What the ACTUAL fuck??!!!???
  12. Holy shit.
  13. Do you not realize that Dallas is wearing the road jersey they used from 1980 through the late 90s? They had a blue one too, but this was the primary road option.
  14. My two favorite teams are Texas and UCLA. Fuck my life.
  15. Holy shit. That's all I can say. HOLY SHIT.
  16. And to grab some fries with gravy and cheese from The O!

  18. Yeah, I was happy to see this today. Had to hook up an old Chromecast to watch some U.S. Open on the big screen this weekend and I'm glad I won't have to mess with that in the future. I'll probably shell out the $5 now just for the Premier League games. And yes, hoping HBO Max follows suit in the near future-- they have to cave eventually, right?
  19. Colt survived the final cut-down today and is officially the Giants' backup QB. https://www.giants.com/news/giants-roster-2020-nfl-season-new-york-announce-53-man-roster-joe-judge
  20. I'm sorry, but these are for smuggling booze INTO the stadium. If you then choose to use them as a means to empty your bladder during the game, be my guest.
  21. I knew when I paid for the tickets in April that I'd never get to use them-- just wanted to keep my seating priority. I've had my seats for 30 years and I'm not about to quit now, but there's no way my 53-year-old double-cancer-survivor ass is going to a game until it's safe to do so. I love football, but my immune system is a shitstorm and I'm not an idiot. My answer to the survey was a solid "I will not be attending," and UT's response basically said "You're down as a no and if you change your mind, you need to call us ASAP." I was also told I'll get a call in mid-August about my refund options. Of course I will let them keep my Foundation donation, but I'm gonna want that $2000 for tix back. I do appreciate that UT is offering a refund as an option and not just a credit-- I imagine that many other organizations/schools will not be doing so.
  22. Hence the asterisk.
  23. Sorry, I see this info is on the 20/21 thread. I looked for one but didn't see it. Anyway, cool to playing Nova again.
