  1. They've called them that since Herman, at least (when I first really started paying attention to their social media).
  2. Eh, it's wednesday. Let me know how he's feeling tomorrow. Friday.
  3. "But when will he be back?" "Doc has given him 2 weeks." "oh, good." "...to live."
  4. So I'm not a big Galindo fan, but I thought saying "Bijan Johnson" was an intentional attempt at creating something off of the combo of Johnson and Bijan (Johnson handing the ball off to Bijan off the direct snap). I mean I don't like it or anything, but I feel that is something Galindo would attempt in that situation.
  5. Since the whole "day to day" thing last Monday I've felt we were probably talking a two game injury for him vs. anything close to 6, but seeing him out there Saturday made me feel a bit better about his chances this week. Not that he was suited up, that could always be gamesmanship, but the running and warm-ups weren't some half-assed bullshit with that injury. But still, he can go out there this past Saturday, whip it around a little, run around, and come in the training room Sunday feeling like he was hit by a train, and then we have a setback. So no, it's not entirely obvious he'd be playing this week based on what we saw this past Saturday alone, but we haven't heard of any setbacks so I've been feeling better about this week. And now CTJ putting things the way he did has me feeling even better.
  6. Not sure I 100% blame them watching Card out there. I think Ewers lifts that line quite a bit.
  7. A trap game is a game most people believe you should win, and mostly easily. That wasn't Bama, and it's not going to be OU, Okie Steak or Baylor.
  8. Figured they would. Both suited up Saturday. Ewers being described by Sark day to day. The way he was running Saturday before the game.
  9. And what if targeting isn't called, going from 3rd and 8 to 1st and 10 with a fresh set of downs for UTSA? That maybe gives Texas an extra drive. Maybe Texas scores, and we're NOT 21 points better because we're actually 24 or 28 points better!?
  10. Personally I believed that Bama was the trap game, in anticipation for what UTSA was a'gunna be bringing. Maybe I was right. Maybe I was Memphis.
  11. In the overall scheme of things, that really shouldn't matter. Gimpy Card's not our starting QB. Non-Gimpy Card is not our starting QB. We move on to Tech
  12. I mean imagine the score if Bijan doesn't flip from Ohio State!!!!!!

    Speaking of Lonesome Dove.... your QB:
  14. I've done the quick 6-7 day one. Forget my recipe, but it was only salt and coarse black pepper. Cured in fridge inside of two gallon bag. Flipped over every day. Smoked over pecan with a tick of mesquite. Was great.
  15. I can't find it, but when I first started reading shaggy this one old fella got mad at the mom jokes. Went on about how his mother died and was a great woman and that he didn't appreciate those types of jokes, and that his mom was a nurse who helped develop some of the course material for the UT nursing program or something. In true Shaggy/Surly fashion, the next reply was: "your mom nursed my cock last night." and I nearly died. I laugh at it to this day.
  16. Yah, quick google search shows sTrain is muscle/tendon related, sPrain being the ligament. I just remember a radio host I listened to who's an ex football player ranting about sprain vs. tear a few times, so hey I finally knew something.
  17. Absolutely. Normally "sprain" involves a small tear or stretching of the ligament, but it's definitely damage. Unless he was thinking "strain," which is not the case here.
  18. Apparently it was released last year on 09/21 siap, I'm on last page and don't see it:
  19. I would guess something more around two weeks on Sark saying he's "day to day" alone, based on what "day to day" normally means, plus the reports of Card/Wright taking the reps. But I'm still getting used to Sark-Speak. Day to Day doesn't literally mean he can be okay tomorrow in every case, but more that they're really not sure of a minimum time. It would normally suggest to me it's a lot about the uncertainty of pain management, healing time, further injury etc.. NFL guys labeled day to day immediately after a game might play that week, or it might be a couple of weeks. Just depends if they can get through a practice that week without any major complications that day and the next etc... Rarely does an important player labeled "Day to day" go beyond three weeks unless there is a major setback. By reports, it for sure wouldn't be this week. Official news between here and next Monday's press conference could shed some more light, hopefully.

    About 20% into Lonesome Dove. Read Dead Man's Walk and Comanche Moon first, so the "differences" in the past are interesting. I made laughing tears reading the part about the creation of the Hat Creek sign. A book has never done that to me.
