What about out-of-market for those teams?
Same as usual is my understanding: mlb.tv
The difference on those teams is instead of an RSN, their home games will also be through mlb.tv.
It’s the start of what MLB has been after long-term in getting it all combined under one roof.
How espn is playing into that specifically, in terms of distribution, I dunno how that works yet. I need to read more here in a few.
So whether ESPN is going to be where you go for mlb.tv, or if they mean you can buy it through espn is where I’m uncertain.
Or maybe you’ll be able to link your mlb account and use either the mov app, or the espn app.
What’s more on top of that, I just saw that NBC is getting Sunday night and some other shit. Saw a ticker, have to dig that up.

Where do all former Texas coaches who allegedly have lady and drinking problems go?
FIU?

I bet Jimmy Sexton is thrilled at that prospect.
That statement is absolutely fucking stupid. If a coach gets fired for cause, kiss that payday goodbye. And we're not firing him this round unless there is cause.

The car that made these two, equal-length tire marks had positraction. You can't make these marks without positraction, which was not available on the '64 Buick Skylark!
What about a Plymouth?
How’s it work?

So that’s where our tax dollars have been going.
Brightline West High-Speed Rail Project (Rancho Cucamonga, CA to Las Vegas, NV)
The project you’re referring to is Brightline West, a privately led, 218-mile high-speed rail line (with trains up to ~200 mph) running mostly in the median of Interstate 15. It will connect Rancho Cucamonga (with Metrolink connections to greater Los Angeles) to Las Vegas, with intermediate stops in Apple Valley/Hesperia and Victor Valley.
How come Uncle Elroy gets a train?

I think he is wearing too many hats and possibly has some personal life shit going on, but regardless lacks the time and energy to properly do his job as OC. Or properly do any of his jobs for that matter. Needs to hire a goddamn OC and focus on being the head coach.
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.

Adaptability to the talent on hand is far and away the most important attribute of a good coach imho. The ability to adapt gameplans, to find ways to highlight the players' strengths while diminishing their weaknesses is the surest sign of coaching prowess imho, and it is rare indeed.
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.33 minutes ago, BurgleBro said:The simple aspect of seeing the overall field is something so simple and easy to explain yet I never seen Sark defenders explain why he makes it work down on the ground.
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.

Well I guess we'll find out next year for Day unless the mutual parting of ways occurs. I think he's Mack against Stoops when it comes to Kirby. He'll need a VY type to do it. We struggled against both Clemson and Arizona State last year when we were clearly superior to both. He hardly ever exhibits the killer instinct that's needed outside of OU.
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.
