    Do you really believe that Texas Tech is spending more money on football than any other school? 

     

    No i don't.  Hell aggy lights a lot of money on fire too.

    The article was more of a simple reply about who Cody Campbell was and is, with regard to where the Tech money comes from.  You saw that in the post you quoted, right?  Of course you did.

    Will consider allowing continued study of pyrotechnics?  The obnoxious train horns ain't enough?  Also, September Texas grass ain't always so green.  Should be a hard "No!"

     

  3. Just now, RPM said:

    Tell me you've never worked in a kitchen...

    oh spot on I have not.  Never have worked in food service industry in any capacity other than a week of mess duty in the Marines.   LOL.

     

    I was trying to be very respectful in how I framed the questions, but a lot of the banter/ shit talking seems unnecessary.  Then again I have worked in a dairy barn and the Marines, and there is some dialogue there that basically cannot be reproduced.

  4. On S1E7.  The tension/ constant arguing turns me off in the worst way.  Zero chance I would work in that environment without beating the fuck out of someone.  I have had to turn off multiple episodes because I just get put out with the constant mouth running.

    I started Mad Men 3 times before I could get past what a shitbag Don Draper was, and he was still a shitbag towards his family even at that.  The business/ selling scenes carried it for me.  It became one of my favorite alltime shows.

    Are the arguing/ shit talking scenes just what the show is?  I understand the appeal for some other folks.  I just don't need that.  One of my DIL's is a trained chef from the NE, so I really wanted to LIKE this show.  I can't get there.

  5. Why didn't the Empire have any of these droids on the Death Star?  Budget cuts? Too tall?
    They just had the little movie projectors on wheels that were scared of Chewie.

  6. What is the appeal of going back to quarters?  I like the flow of the 2 halves.

    It's not like football where you get the wind or whatever.  Maybe the student section matters, but you're playing at both ends naturally for the game in hoops.

    Also from what I’ve read and heard, Men’s is getting closer to going to 4 quarters. Understandably, their tv deal is larger than women’s so it’s a little more complex for them. 

    asking, not arguing, with the built in TV TO's at the 4 minute intervals, what difference would quarters vs halves make?

    Gray, Diggs, Vasher, Thomas, Ross, Huff, DeAyala, Johnson, Barron, Mukuba and some others you could all argue for at DB. Texas has been called DBU over more than one era in the past. I could have picked a Mount Rushmore for D and made it all DBs. Hell, I left off Tony Brackens and Stoney Clark two of my personal all time favorite Longhorn D players cause hard choices. Like I said in my post, the D one was hard as fuck cause of who I had to leave off. 

    Casey Hampton?

    I would vote against unending idiocy and attacks on humanity except someone on the left acted self righteous on a message board. 

    No. The point is there is a lot of shit changing my mind. And I couldn't be more serious. I already did not vote R in the last 2 Presidential races. 
     

    But then when I talk about it, here come 58 'I told you so's' as if the left's shit is also squared away.

    Im sure you’ll vote accordingly lol

    I'm sure the continual self-righteousness by the left will convince me to change, moreso than the unending idiocy and attack on humanity by the right. 

  11. If you don't believe in gay marriage, then don't engage in it.

    Move the fuck on.  ( towards the idiots attacking it, not this thread.)

    All of this money can’t be coming from one person:

    It is estimated that Texas Tech will pay out $55 million in revenue sharing and NIL across all sports programs in 2025, which is believed to be the highest in the country.

    https://www.si.com/college/texas-tech/football/cbs-sports-55-million-payout-could-put-texas-tech-on-top-of-college-athletics

    It is NOT just one, but there is most definitely a bigger fish than others.  https://www.fanrunradio.com/sports/the-richest-team-in-college-football-just-got-richer
