  1. I got sidetracked and didn't finish reading all the responses, but 2 things I'd absolutely do.

    1.  Help her find a private teacher that she enjoys working with.  She'll lose interest if she ends up with a teacher she doesn't like working with.  Don't be afraid to try more than one if you need to to keep her excited.

    2.  Encourage her love of music in general.  As an example, let her pick music for y'all to listen to while you eat dinner, encourage her to expand her musical horizons when she's picking, and talk about the music with her when you hear a song you especially like or don't like and encourage her to develop her own opinions about all kinds of music as well.

    If you do those 2 things, you'll help her instill a life long love of music and a new level of discipline to pick up new skills, even if she eventually decides that playing music isn't for her any longer.

    This is wrong, good or bad posts from forums. If one particular player being called out doesn’t see it, friends or teammates will forward it to them. And I know this from a younger brother of a great d1 player that is friends with my kiddo. They see it.

    Way back in the day, this would've been when the AAS was still running a message board, I did some work on a fan site and what I did was tape all the games, then used a video capture thingy connected to my vcr and my computer to put shitty little clips up of game highlights.  There was one game that was super shitty and we lost, and I updated that I wasn't planning to make videos for that game unless I got a bunch of requests from the readers.  I only got 1 request, but it was from Ricky Williams, or at least someone who had access to his utexas email address.  Even back then, the players were looking at this stuff.

    They would shelve him in a New York second if they could get a stud QB1 from the portal.

    I’m confused. Liucci very clearly said that Weigman is that guy.

    He is that guy.  He's just now that guy for Cougar High.

    Tied for 10th in receiving TDs all time at A&M. "Good riddance".

    I mean on the one hand that's pretty hilarious, but on the other Sideshow Bert can't leave fast enough for my liking and he is #1 in FG's for Texas all time.  I didn't watch enough of aggy this year to know if they were dealing with a Bert situation or just a sour grapes situation here.

  5. Given the choice of jerking off or fucking with a condominium, what sane person says “nah, I’ll just fuck my hand.”  Also, in sooner land can one be impregnated orally? That seems like another obvious choice. And that’s not even acknowledging the butt stuff….

    The slowest 95 yard touchdown run I think I've ever seen.  I thought when I saw the highlight on ESPN that they were showing it in slow motion until I unmuted it and realized, actually no, they put the slow kids out to play today.  Jesus.

    Also, BWAHAHAHAHA at OU fucking this up AND that sooner gut screen shot.  That needs to get a lot of airplay on this board going into next season.

    I've given up hope on the band being featured in-game/during timeouts, but at least they aren't doing a billion ad reads like the old days or have an annoying "in-game host". 

    I went to my first game in probably a decade this season.  First row of WUD in an afternoon game so the sun was behind us and gone by the middle of the second quarter.  That rocked.  The ads have basically disappeared, that rocked as well.  What I did notice is that they completely filled every second with noise still, leaving no room for the crowd or the band to get involved.  The only time you could hear the band doing band things in important moments was when it was a fucking recording of the band near half time because the band had already left their seats to get ready for halftime.  WTF.  I can't hear the band play Texas Fight live after a big play because of all the piped in music, but I can hear them clear as day when it's a recording.  I don't get it.

    That being said, I fucking LOVED the environment for the game.  It was relatively loud even though it was just Kentucky.  I wasn't absolutely bombarded with ads.  I got to drink as many beers as I wanted.  The environment around the stadium was even way way better than it used to be.  Gotta give CDC props for drastically improving a product that was so bad I had resigned myself to never wanting to go again.  We had enough fun I may actually think about season tickets again.

    I'm glad someone remembered the lesbians who post here and didn't have to stretch into the past for some forgotten homosexual baseball fan to put on Surly Queer Rushmore! (Not actually mad)

    But I would put troph on before myself out of deference to her much longer active-posting history, whereas I lurked for many years dating back to Shaggy's early days.

    To be fair, I was trying to keep it to the gays, wasn't sure how the lesbians would be to be thrown into that bucket.  It's why I didn't mention Troph either, but for my money, I'd put you both way up there on the mafia rushmoar.

    That was too gay, even for me.

    100%.  And I was there for all of it.

    You 3 must be on the Gay Surly Mount (heh) Rushmore -- who's #4?

    Going back a ways but, Carr Throws Far.  There was also a guy that used to post a lot in the baseball forum, but I can't remember his handle anymore.

    LOL. Saw this in the bonfire thread on Texags. Tangentially related.

    Hate to hear about the burn ban. Any idea on a make up date?

     

    IIRC, the last time Burn was postponed, it was held on MLK weekend.

    So let’s get a bunch of white people together and light a giant fire on MLK weekend. No one will think that’s odd.

    never change, aggy!

    Is that the year someone lost (Miami maybe?) moments before The Big XII title game kicked opening the door for Texas to clinch National Championship Game with a win and they didn’t seize the opportunity?

    Tennessee was the team. I was drunk off my ass and flying high for the first half of  that game, the losing the MNC appearance possibility and then sitting for an hour and a half in the Cowboys parking lot trying to get out brought me all the way back to earth.
