  1. I went through a similar situation when buying my house. Old medical bill sent to the wrong address and had gone to collections. 

    It took a lot of phone calls and dealing with collection agency bullshit. But since the original bill has been sent to the wrong address, the collection agencies completely removed it from my credit after I paid the bill in full. 

    I doubt they will remove it for anything less than full payment and that’s only because it was sent to the wrong address. 

  2. Gave my ticket to a buddy and didn’t go to or watch the game. My takeaway on Shaka Smart basketball is we’re a good team when we shoot 40% or more on threes or someone has a career game. Otherwise we suck. Unfortunately shooting threes isn’t a strength but has become the default offense cause we don’t have an effective offense.

    Appears we have a couple of people on here who have done a mental evaluation on him. Impressive.

    There’s enough people who have followed recruiting long enough to know there is a strong correlation between Shepherd’s behavior during his recruitment (flakiness and manufactured drama) and him not meeting his potential. Still hope we sign him.

    The trend in D-1/FBS football has been towards more parity for 50 years.  Scholarship limits, recruiting regulations, etc.  Any arrangement of this nature would hit that trend like a tsunami.  It would become nearly impossible for new schools to build a program at this level.  I suspect many of the existing FBS schools would drop out as well.

    There's a glut of FBS schools, so I would characterize any schools dropping down a division as a correction.  Are schools like App State, Texas State, North Texas, Coastal Carolina, Liberty best served by being in FBS?

  5. Boring ass basketball and no offensive identity absent a player randomly having a great game. Other than that, we’ve got nothing; there’s no system to fall back on when the shots aren’t falling. The closest thing to a system that we have is lame ass drives to the basket that rarely work because defenders sag off our perimeter players cause we can’t shoot and tons of screens that don’t lead to anything but more screens.

    If Kingsbury has many nfl and colleges interested in hiring him, as reported, it seems unlikely he'd take a position on USC's sinking ship with a head coach who everyone wants to fire and at least 3 new assistants on staff.

    We just went through this with Charlie Strong. Wouldn’t be surprised if Lynn Swann has to hop on a plane to seal the deal with whomever they hire.

    I’ve fallen off the wagon bad. Back up to 227. Meal prep fell apart and I changed my breakfast to a smoothie. The smoothie is great, but I was getting hungry at 10 am and eating a bag of chips with a Diet Coke. Then another Diet Coke at lunch. Got back to a two a day habit. Lunch has been burger and fries or some other combo of that.

    It’s amazing how much diet plays a role in weight. Eating like shit makes me tired too.

    That said - meal planning is back in full swing. I found a good mid morning and mid afternoon snack option. Workouts will start up again Sunday.

    Throw some steel cut oats, coconut oil, protein powder, cacao butter and peanut butter in your smoothies. The fat, protein and complex carbs will make it way more of a meal and lower the glycemic index so you don’t have a mid morning crash.

  8. Going into the season, I’d been out of the loop and hadn’t paid much attention to the team. But there’s a lot to look forward to this year: mitrou-long and Hayes balled out last night. Heap has skills and febres looks like he’ll be at home in the corner.  Plus AJ’s back, and that’s all kinds of awesome. 

    This could be Shaka’s most complete team at Texas. It should be a fun season. 

  9. On my phone, but if you search YouTube for ‘the corrections kettlebell’ there’s a great series of videos on basic kettlebell moves. He does a great job breaking down the swing, which is the basis of many kb exercises. 

    If you want a short, intense workout, Dan John has one where you do 8 double kettlebell front squats and then do 100 ft farmers walk. Do that 8 times in a row without putting the weight down. Then go throw up.

  10. Gen x here (born in 75) And I agree with our man celery. And I’m really not trying to make this a demographic competition but I think folks my age had a little bit more time in the pre internet era to fully appreciate the differences between pre and post internet while still straddling that divide.

    Another huge shift is how much social currency was wrapped up in what bands you listened to. There was real value in turning your friends on to new music. 

  11. Educate me please. Is there really a difference between millennials and gen z? Baby boomers spanned around 20 years, gen x around another 20. Now born in 96 is considered gen z? That seems more of a creation of marketers and half employed writers on jezebel trying to define their own demographic snowflake than something of actual demographic value.
