  1. This is absolutely part of the problem, and not just with Sark and Texas. Everyone is dealing with the increased demands, scouting, NIL, and all of that shit. He has to learn to delegate more efficiently. If more assistants are needed, so be it. However, that still does not address the elephant in the room. That elephant being his ability to adapt, especially in game. Exactly. And if these coaches are so fucking "smart" about their sport to the point they get the guru/genius tag, then why the fuck can't they see the forest for the trees? It's a bit fucking ridiculous. Maybe they need an average Joe to help point shit out that the meatheads are seeing. Right? A few coaches do it, and do it well (overall.) Take Andy Reid for example. It's his offense, he's calling the shots, and he's on the sidelines. However, the big difference between having success in that aspect and failure is whom you put in the sky. You have to have top shelf personnel that can make all of those assessments, be able to relay pertinent information, and maybe even suggest a few play options. Or at the very least they should be able to tell the coach what/who/when/where to exploit, and let the coach figure out which part of the playbook to get into. That's not happening here, and if Sark's coaching here next season that is something that needs to be fixed. Either that or let him build the McLaren and then hire a driver. But I guess we can debate that all off-season, but whatever the end result is we'll have plenty to talk about.
  2. The ones with cookies?
  3. I’m treading water at 75k, covered with breathing room at 100k, have been 150k-200k for just shy of the last 15 years.
  4. Be thankful I got something to eat.
  5. This is what I can't grasp on whole. Sark, and other coaches, are supposed to be excellent offensive/defensive type minds, and know all this shit about football. Yet many fail to see the forest for the trees. If Sark were truly an offensive genius, wouldn't he be able to comprehend shit that average Joe's and Jill's understand? The whole square peg round hole thing. You'd think he'd be bright enough to scheme to what his players can do, not what grand plan he had dreamed up. Fall camp should have shown him exactly what he was working with. He would have known more if they had a spring game or better spring camp. So now we get his grand scheme shoved down our throats for consumption, whether we like it or not. We've seen with our own eyes what can happen if he does that (ou), but he keeps insisting on going with shit that's such over-complicated asswater that the players can't get a damn thing going and look like fucking clown shoes. So what gives? It's not just Sark, others have had similar issues. Is it ego? Meathead shit? What keeps a coach that you would think should see the obvious from actually seeing the obvious? Looking back from the first of the year, it's like he's trying to get fired or some shit. It's plain reckless how the off-season has been handled, let alone in-season.
  6. Don't nobody wanna go down on some fruit fly snatch.
  7. Maybe X should quit fucking around and enshittifying their content.
  8. Reminder that 40-man rosters have to be finalized today by 6pm EST to protect them from the Rule 5 draft shit.
  9. There was that one time we helped that one guy with the squirrels chewing the soffit on his house.
  10. kitten +7.5 ? Damn the books needed some money the other way. Take it.
  11. It's all they have.
  12. Oh right, when they were trying to have Christmas dinner. Yeah, it was pretty close to that. For Seamus!!!!!!!!
  13. Yeah, she has shorty syndrome for sure. Rarely wears anything with a heel, or she’d break her neck.
  14. Anyone got any diet coke for those mentos?
  15. This. Fuck it. Have a good time, with good people, and the rest is small potatoes in the grand scheme of things.
  16. I would be interested to hear what one would have to say, absolutely. I've thought about some of those "glue sealants" or similar. Considering, as you say, that they turn into a paper mache like structure, then that becomes a whole different ball of wax. I would have thought they would end up more leathery of a texture, similar to dehydrated fruit/meat. Of course that leads me into the rabbit hole. lol I do think the cayenne would be an easy, non-lethal fix against critters. Just a shake from the bottle over/around/in them should do it, and take maybe 30 seconds. The rest of it, dunno. I may go pluck a few gourds and play around, if I can find anything good. Why? Just for the hell of it. lol
  17. I still can’t help but wonder of there is another step or something you could add to your process that would decrease your mortality rate. Dunno why my mind keeps going there. Starved for a problem to solve, I guess.
  18. Why drink and drive when you can smoke and fly.
