These owners made a bunch of bad decisions in the transfer market and now they'll end up sacking a fairly quality manager because they have no other option to keep fans hopeful. It's really hard to see any sort of path out of the woods that isn't 3+ seasons away.

This fucking team. I swear. They are just allergic to any kind of prosperity.

Neighbor has the Sinatra. It’s unremarkable. I’d pass on all three, but the MWND is probably the best combo of good product at a price that’s not terribly out of line.

The JD pick is about $20 higher than MSRP and the Kentucky Spirit pick is $15 higher.
So? Inflation has been high and everything is more expensive in general. Not to mention that liquor stores know that whiskey demand is showing no signs of slowing down. Which is something you validated by still buying at those prices. -
How is $75 cute? Because it’s not a round number? Would you feel better if they charged $80?

Speaking of our amazing owners, looks like they made another outstanding hire:
https://theathletic.com/5251686/2024/02/05/todd-kline-tottenham-chelsea/
Tottenham Hotspur’s chief commercial officer Todd Kline has resigned from his post and, after a period of gardening leave, will join Chelsea.
Kline joined Spurs three years ago, with one of his main aims to secure naming rights for the stadium. As the “About Me” section of his LinkedIn page says: “Tottenham have appointed a former NFL executive as the club’s first chief commercial officer to aid the search for a lucrative naming-rights partner for their stadium.”
He leaves with that not having happened, and on Monday morning Spurs put a statement on their website saying: “Todd Kline has resigned from his post at the club and has been placed on a period of garden leave with immediate effect.”
Kline instantly set about raising standards after being appointed, but a number of members of the commercial department left following his arrival. Some left without jobs to go to, and as The Athletic reported last year, there were question marks about his leadership.
Kline’s new role at Chelsea has not yet been confirmed but it will be a senior position within the business operations.[/spolier]

The faces of the fans at The Bridge say it all.

2 minutes ago, closetojumping said:
Downs’ agent was negotiating with Ohio State before he ever entered the portal. Georgia got involved. Texas is being mentioned as a negotiating tactic. I don’t think Texas is working on this one. Maybe something is happening late with Texas, but I doubt it.
Expect Texas to be mentioned in every high profile portal situation, but don’t take anything seriously unless a player actually visits.
That exact strategy has been de rigueur in European Soccer transfer negotiations for the last decade plus. Come to think of it, the combination of NIL and the transfer portal is pushing college football squarely into a transfer market operating model, except that teams are getting no financial upside when star players move on.

If true, seems a little underwhelming when the $9.95 reports have been "a hire on the level of a Bo Davis".
Yeah. It’s so unlike that crowd to hype things up.- 1

No but it was funny because you're being absurd.
If not wanting to join in on the circle jerk of hyperbole makes me absurd then I’ll wear that label with honor.
Golden and Bond are great gets from the portal but it’s pretty dumb to jump to saying that they will be at least as good as who we’re losing. I get that this is the time of year where we pound our chest and make bold proclamations about reloading, but it almost never works out that way.- 2

Right. I really cannot think of a time Bond made a big catch on a big stage.
Right. That’s exactly what I said. -
Golden and Bond are not “potential”. Unless your definition of potential is just that they haven’t don’t it in a Texas uniform yet.
Neither of them have done what Adonai did on the largest of stages. Of course very few have, as that’s a very high bar.- 1

So for the poster who wondered if we would ever field a three receiver group as good as this year- the answer is yes. Next year we will have a top three to match or exceed 2023.
I’d tap the brakes with that sort of unbridled optimism. They have the potential to match, but significantly less skins on the wall heading into 2024.- 3

I found calling in for your grades to be a more traumatic experience than registering.
This grade has not been reported.- 1

It never ceases to surprise me that people here somehow think they are going to be able to get Derka to change his mind on something. It’s the definition of insanity. The only way to put out a fire is to take away its oxygen, yet most of you fuckers seem to want to throw gasoline on it.

You couldn't even get into Texas you shitbag, and this was back when it was easy to get into Texas. Go fucking find another fanbase to annoy, maybe the University of Phoenix is more your style
No shit. Hold yourself to the same standards you put on our student athletes and maybe you’d have made something out of your pathetic life. This place was infinitely better when you were gone, and a giant fuck you to anyone that pined for this shit bag to come back and post more garbage.- 2

Shut the fuck up
Co-sign. Just a shitty shitty post in light of the circumstances. But that’s always been his MO, so color me not surprised in the least bit.
I mean this with all sincerity. Go fuck yourself, Derka.- 5

The offensive performance was not significantly better. We just got worked on both sides of the ball.
Any and all questions and criticisms of Gideon and Jospeh are absolutely more than warranted. We have some of the most suspect DB play of anyone in the top 10.- 2

The illegal block call against Watts was a first for me, and I’ve been watching this sport for more than 30 years. It may not have been hugely consequential but the fact that it happened at all has to make you wonder.

I bowl in the 8:30p Monday night league at Highland. Pretty chill group of people and Sue is a great league secretary. Not sure how to go about getting set with a team as a single but there are also substitute or alternate options you could look at.
I’m still wondering what the plan is for the North side once Highland’s lease is up next November. I’d hate to lose access to a nice big house on this side of town. Hopefully they have a plan in the works. -
Imagine having a few days off from work and your best idea for how to spend them is inside of a tent at a strip mall. I cannot comprehend that in the slightest.

That’s fucking pathetic. How sad does your life have to be for that to be worth the time?
