    He's back!

    Also, lol at the "if the sips don't blow out defending national champs Michigan it'll be a long season in Austin." I love this little bit of mental gymnastics. Preemptively diminishing the importance of Texas' hypothetical future wins is an impressive amount of pre-cope. 

    where do they get this shit?  everyone here is excited about the opportunity the big house affords to us, and NO ONE in our camp expects us to win or has this marked as must-win or guaranteed win

    "Elko is officially doing what we thought Jimbo was doing but have since learned otherwise" is just amazing.

    did they think hobbit was officially or unofficially not doing what elk is now officially doing?  that's key....

    also,, going forward, we need to drop the "the" and the "o"

    aggy is singular, plural, etc.etc.

    thus

    there is no longer "the elk" nor is there any longer "elko"

    he is aggy

    he is elk

  3. michigan is not a hostile environment

    texas - aggy (double weird)

    wolverine - tosu (hostile and weird)

    wolverine are us, although it melts their brain to contemplate that we are them

    regardless, a night game up there would have been dope

    i look at it like this

    we get a guaranteed morning game at the shoe which as just posted is the best outcome

    we get fair park at 230 (THE REAL START TIME) a year earlier - and everyone that wants 11am 0u kicks keep your fucking mouths shut don't say a fucking word you are WRONG do not waste the bandwidth embarrassing yourself

    If you're going to take actual practice/play out of the equation, I think you're going to have to include the Marshall U plane crash in 1970, which killed over 70 people. Calling a FIG event "egregious" probably isn't too far off the mark.

    that was an ACCIDENT

    tens of millions of student athletes have flow commercial and will continue to fly commercial

    the wichita state crash was also an ACCIDENT

    going further afield the manchester united crash was an ACCIDENT

    99 was NOT AN ACCIDENT

    99 was not an act of The God of Abraham

    allow me to retort! (/jules)

    from the report with the endorsement stamp of HOMELAND SECURITY:

    SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
    The 1999 Bonfire collapsed due to a number of both physical and organizational factors. Structurally, the collapse was driven by a containment failure in the first stack of logs. Two primary factors caused this failure: the first was excessive internal stresses driven primarily by aggressive wedging of second stack logs into the first stack. The second was inadequate containment strength. The wiring used to tie the logs together provided insufficient binding strength. Also, steel cables, which in recent years had been wrapped around the first stack, were not used in 1999, further reducing containment strength. These two factors – excessive internal stresses and weakened containment strength – combined to cause the collapse.
    The physical failure and causal factors were driven by an organizational failure. This failure, which had its roots in decisions and actions by both students and University officials over many years, created an environment in which a complex and dangerous structure was allowed to be built without adequate physical or engineering controls.  This organizational failure is complex but includes such things as the absence of an appropriate written design or design process, cultural bias impeding risk identification, and the lack of a proactive risk management approach.

    in other words, 99 was not an ACCIDENT

    This is such a common and strange reaction from aggies I meet living and working in Austin.  It's not like it should be any surprise encountering Texas grads in the same city where the university is located-- if you choose to live here you really ought to know what you're getting into.  If encountering Texas grads is going to be a remarkable and unpleasant experience for you, then Austin is probably not the city for you.

    they are statewide infestation

  6. they had to have the first game at home

    just had to have it

    i can hear talkiebird throwing a hissy fit about it

    okay

    in 25, it's the first league game of the season, in austin, at dkr, at night, and no permit to storm the capitol the night before

    and we play every game in austin the same way

    given the historical record, this means 2 of every 6 seasons for them will be over before the end of september and they won't be able to pivot to "next year" when they still have 8 games to play

    Au contraire, my friend.  I’ve seen aggy pay seriously big bucks to look like complete fucktards. 
     

    Case in point: Jimbo Fisher

    teddy demanded and got reform in college football in 1905 to put an end to the violence

    that season, 1905, there were 18 deaths on the field

    wilson continued the reforms in 1909 which dramatically reduced the violence in football

    the first aggy stack and bonfire took place that year so we can use that as the demarcation line

    in the past 115 years, there have been deaths in and around college football programs, the most recent to my knowledge being Jordan McNair at Maryland in 18

    since aggy believe that nut clenching, midnight cross burning and tree killing actually has an effect on the performance of their football team, we are left with no other choice but to conclude that the 12 deaths in 99 are the single most egregious event in the history of college football since 1909

    so let's take death and dismemberment out of the equation and talk about money

    our money

    aggy remain a branch college of The University according to the Constitution of the State of Texas

    they get 1/3rd of the AUF payment from the annual proceeds on PUF assets they don't own and that are not part of their endowment although they claim 100% of the PUF as theirs

    they never paid back the loans to the AD in 07 and 08 despite AUF payments in the $600m-$800m range the last 3-4 years

    so when we remove DEATHS from the equation, the pornographic boomhauer contract easily by a parsec outranks any other fiscal scandal in the history of college football

    A lot of Wilco gets its water from lake Georgetown, which is supplemented with water pumped in from stillhouse hollow.

    Wonder if we could devise a larger system with non-force field lakes such as Whitney, which is currently 100% full. Also Belton is close and 75% full. Obviously this only works if they receive rain when we don’t.

    i already answered this question

    I for one support the idea of a deeper lake that never gets to the water level it might have otherwise achieved.  I bet all those marinas and waterfront homeowners would be thrilled with permanent rocks and random grass for their lakefront view & use.

    every drainage basin east of the brazos is dumping fresh water in the gulf

    capture that excess and move it to the colorado and medina systems at zero cost+ (after the 1-time charge for the infrastructure + maintenance which both together recede to Zero )

    In this part of the world droughts end in floods. The lake will eventually be full again no matter what this summer or next brings. It’s just a matter of the prolonged pain until it happens. Sadly, most of the Austin population is completely oblivious to how this could play out in the very near future.

    95% of austinites require 2.3 seconds to realize the traffic light has turned green

    only south florida surpasses austin driver stupidity

    in other news, i can solve the water needs of the entire state for 100 years with 1 Billion dollars and the following technologies:

    1. solar-driven Archimedes screws

    2. downhill 1% grade aqueducts
