2025 NFL Draft
If the Steelers aren't interested in Sanders or Dart and don't see a viable free agent QB, I wonder if they'd take on some of Kirk Cousins contract. Also wonder if Atlanta would actually give up draft capital to make it happen. Atlanta has already said it would eat $17.5 of the $37.5M guaranteed, but most teams want them to eat closer to $27. Something like Atlanta sends Cousins and #15 pick to Pittsburgh for #21 pick and Falcons only eat $20M of the Cousins contract. [/fan fiction]

Texas Offseason 2025 - Archmania Is Upon Us
5 on an AP test counted as an A (4.0), 4 was a B, 3 was a C (but you could just accept it as no-grade credit on the 3 and 4 scores). Rolling in with 15+ hours of 4.0 was a nice buffer.

RIP, Ron Franklin
https://youtu.be/1ZaWvk6j0hk Mike’s senility may have started with “What’s Britney doing with her life?!” Patrick and Franklin were peak NCAA football broadcasting. Patrick’s Sunday Night Football crew was also great to watch, even with Theisman as the third wheel.

Definitely should reboot his hairstyle at the same time as his kicking career.

So excited to go to the SEC with these Tennessee assholes
Today I was shocked to learn that schools such as Texas, Michigan, and Florida were forced to disband their world class research programs in science, engineering, and medicine to afford football players’ NIL and field competitive teams.

17 year old stabbed to death by another 17 year old at Frisco track meet
He likes wine, he likes 69, and he’s here to party and threadshit.

2025 NFL Draft
Yeah. He should’ve came out last year when he still was viewed as high talent and potential, and may have been given benefit of the doubt due to injuries. The more he played in college and put on tape, the more “he is who he is.” If he transferred for 2025 and had another good but not great year, he’d land himself in 6th round 2026 territory.

Study: Consistent use of ADHD meds may stunt growth
My 7 year old displays ADHD and hyperactivity symptoms constantly. We have a soft ban on red and blue dyes and it was a night and day difference. If he “accidentally” gets dye via postgame sports drink or birthday cupcake, his ADHD-ish behavior comes back in hours and takes a couple days to get out of his system.

We may not have had SEC bag men handing out cash in $10k increments, but there were always Texas players driving new cars (Tahoe my Tahoe) and living in apartments a lot nicer than they could afford on their athlete stipend, at least in the late Mack, Charlie, Herman eras.

Thread of Belt Tightening
I looked at Mint (uses T-Mobile towers), Visible (uses Verizon towers) and Cricket (uses AT&T). We found a good promo rate for new customers on Mint and did a 3 month contract to try it out. So far, so good and wish we’d locked in the 12 months of unlimited data at $15+tax. It’s about to jump to $30 unless we get another promo to renew. I might give Visible a try and come back to Mint later as a “new” customer.

Are you going to get a better player than Cam with a conditional first round pick? I think he needs more coaching and PT but has undeniable talent.

I also think corking is more about this (bat compression, trampoline effect) than weight reduction. My point of reference is ridiculous youth baseball world, but some hitters swing better with end loaded, and others with balanced barrel. Moving center of gravity lower can help initial acceleration, and the wider sweet spot for those hitters ensures more likely hitting the baseball's center of mass at a lower point on the barrel. Traditional end loaded design is advantageous for hitters that have no problem whipping the barrel around and creating more angular momentum towards the end of the bat (higher mass and velocity, more boom).

Yeah, either they want flexibility if the best available they have rated significantly higher than the best OL on the board, or they are trying to play mind games and make other teams think they may not go OL, so that one of their top 3 OL falls to them (then they cut one or more of these non-guaranteed contract FAs).- 2025 Celebrity Death Pool
He listed his primary residence for sale about a year ago. I don’t know if it was related to an illness or not.- 2025 Celebrity Death Pool
I went to middle school with one of his daughters so this hits close to (my former) home. I met him a handful of times, and he was always as nice, light hearted, and joking as he came off in his grill infomercials. RIP champ.- 2025 youth baseball and all it entails...
Coach interference. Runner is out. 🤣 Agree on batting order. Spreading out your strong and weak hitters is key to keep it moving. - Houston Astros 2025 Season Thread
