    If I was Mr. McCoy I'd be pissed. Now(because Bru wants to be Baby Boy) him and his Old lady can't do the freak nasty butt ass naked throughout the whole house.

    Yeah, that has happened all the time since my kid went off to college.

    White Florida gang members try to punish black member with racist tattoo but screw up spelling

    White Florida gang members thought they were forcibly tattooing a horrific slur on a fellow gang member’s neck, but they spelled it wrong.

    The buffoons allegedly covered up a black gang member’s tattoo with the words "F--k you, Niger,” an apparent attempt at a racial slur that ended up referencing a West African country instead.

    Lucian Evans told cops that he and three others were trying to discipline victim Michael Hart for violating gang rules, according to the Miami Herald. Evans, 40, was booked for aggravated battery, armed robbery, second-degree larceny, fraud with a false receipt and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon.

    The incident took place in Salt Springs in Marion County on Jan. 28.

    I would say the vast majority of Texas boosters do not want to cheat and would not encourage it, even if it means falling behind a few former plantation states at football.  It’s just not, traditionally, part of the culture of this place.  Maybe now that Old Austin and the wine and cheese crowd are both diluted out of existence, I am wrong and the ethical culture is gone too.  Or, maybe I totally misread the vibe during my time at the The University and it never existed at all.  I doubt that though. 

    It's hard to call demanding that players remain unpaid in a hundred-million-dollar industry being an ethical culture any more.

    I like the move.  I think more #2 and #3 seeds should do this.  You're in the same spot if you lose game 1 or game 2.  The goal is to win the regional, not the first game.  Save your ace for a potential matchup with the #1 knowing that it reduces your chances of winning game 1.  

    And yeah, if I was Schloss and started Williamson against Cal and lost, I would pitch King in game 2 against Central Connecticut (assuming they lose to Arkansas).  They are one of the worst teams to make the tournament.  I'd hold Lodolo for game 3 (unless Central Conn upsets Arkansas and TCU faces an 0-1 Arkansas in game 2).  If Lodolo never plays, oh well, we tried to win the regional that we probably shouldn't have been in, and Lodolo will have to console himself with being a top 10 pick in the draft.

    I agree, but coaches are notoriously overly risk averse.  I remember the year we rested our ace in the first game against St John's in the Rice regional and lost.  We played some shit team like Sam Houston or someone the next game and started our ace.  We scored 3 in the top of the 1st and still trotted Ruffin out for a 1-2-3 inning.  Then we scored 9 in the top of the second and wasted Ruffin for 7 innings.

    I’m still paying $200+  monthly for Spectrum (3 cable boxes around the house) we only DVR programming from maybe a dozen channels. Am not sure how this streaming stuff works. 

    We do have a 4g wireless router for the tablets and new Samsung smartass 4K TV. I did finally figure out (with Surly help) how to get the Internet on said TV. Did see all those icons for the subscription services, but don’t have a clue how those work or how to pay for them.

    I did think the last five pages of the recruiting/Bru threads were too calm. Let's really step it into overdrive. Let's all satya together.

    ahem: "Whittington is definitely transferring, Bijan is going to Ohio State, we're going to get stuck with Tahj Brooks, every individual bad thing that happens points to programmatic doom trends, we're never getting laid again, the heat death of the earth is imminent."

    Status of our pets' heads?

    That's performance art. Got to be. If she legitimately thinks that spread constitutes dinner I can only hope her husband is equally as stupid. That's the only scenario I can conceive of that doesn't end in tears.

    She must fuck like a banshee.
