  1. All other stats aside, he’s only won one playoff game.
  2. I know it’s been asked, but why didn’t they franchise Greenard?
  3. I got a $100 for the winner of TikTok comments/Mr. I Used to Bench 225 vs ztejas. Let’s get the pot going and make this happen!
  4. Wasn’t talking about you or anything you said.
  5. You can tell her that some guy from the internet said this is a good opportunity for her to learn that she should treat a $600 phone like a $600 phone.
  6. Congrats on the new ride! Highly recommend that you get the bike fitted by a professional bike fitter. Unlike on a mtb, you’ll be in pretty much the same position the duration of your ride. Got an old bike fitted at the start of the pandemic and made a huge difference in comfort and handling.
  7. Dude, we’re taking about aggy. Do you expect them to not fuck this up?
  8. Woom makes legit, lightweight kids bikes. A buddy of mine got one for his son and he loves it. They may be more than you want to spend but worth a look.
  9. All that and they celebrate the wrong success and then get way ahead of themselves. Top recruiting class…WHOOP! Swgacopter, WRTS, Don’t Care Got Jimbo. All these bullshit fake wins, which they assume are a guaranteed ticket to the promised land, but they’re still waiting at the station with their dick in their hands.
  10. Assuming their funds are finite and Jimbo is fired, how do they allocate the remaining football funds (donor and institutional monies)? A high dollar coach, leaving less for NIL; or a lower cost up and comer, leaving more for NIL. Donor fatigue is a real thing when they’re paying $60+million for someone not to coach and the new hire isn’t exciting and motivating their fan base to fund a competitive NIL program. Think that’s why they’re wishcasting an alum like Dan Campbell (?) or someone who ‘gets atm’ who’ll keep the donors happy and the money flowing.
  11. Your math seems off. Saving 50-75 for 4 years equals 200-300 for a down payment. That’s well over 20% on a 375-400 loan. If the target down payment is 20%, why not buy the house when he saves that amount?
  12. Locally, you may also want to check out Austin auction gallery. They’ll be able to give you a range and will take a chunk of the sales price, but it would probably be the best way to move it quick and not get a shit deal.
  13. Contrast this with Jimbo referring to players by their jersey number during Saturday’s post game presser.
  14. Watched jimbos post game presser and a reporter mentioned Miami had 140-something yards after the catch. Jimbo responded with the usual coach speak…tackling better, leverage points, cover better, wrapping up. All the same shit we heard when Texas had the same problem. Looking back, there was never an easy in season fix, and the issues were more talent, scheme, coaching and culture, all things that required multiple seasons and coaching changes to address. Fucking glorious to see Aggie having the same issues.
  15. Really pulling for you, Mac. At the risk of showing my ignorance or pointing out an obvious thing you’ve already done, are there recruiters you can reach out to who can asses to what areas your skill set will translate and push you for jobs in those areas? Also, do you know if the greater Houston partnership has any job search functions or events/mixers? I know some folks who used to work there and can reach out to them if you’re interested.
  16. In the very good but not great chorus. I read Strauss's wiki this morning after seeing the movie last night and think the movie would have been better served by exploring him more. There were references to his past (son of a lowly shoe salesman) but there was a richness and depth to the character that the movie ignored: He didn't go to college; was set to graduate at the top of his high school class, which would have gotten him a free ride, but he got sick and didn't graduate with his class; after he graduated he worked for a few years to save money for college then moved to Europe to serve in the rebuilding after WWI, while there he was offered a job at an investment bank where he made a shit ton of money; he was an active jew and may have resented that Oppenheimer was not a practicing jew; and he was strongly against the sharing of any nuclear technology with our allies.
  17. And also, no one really gives a fuck about a&m. They’ll raise their profile every few years (johnnys heisman, poaching jimbo, the 2022 recruiting class) but they’re just as often laughed at (5-7, jimbos contract, kyler and kyle transferring in the same off season). Ultimately, they only matter to the extent they provide fodder for the national cfb media.
  18. I'd never heard about him until this thread, but did some googling and found an old interview with him. I think George Costanza was channeling this guy when he told Jerry, "just remember, it's not a lie...if you believe it." https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc983406/m1/
  19. That sounds like a potentially and vague bullshit answer. How long with the investigation take place, and what did he mean by getting back to you ASAP (the end of the day or the end of the week)? What will the investigation entail, and is there a district wide procedure for how such incidents are handled or is the principal winging it? Will the coach be suspended/removed from campus during the investigation? Absent him immediately removing the coach from the school, I would contact the superintendent. I would also be concerned about him badmouthing your daughter to her classmates, if he's allowed to remain on campus, and is in fact a groomer.
