Brenham isn’t that far from HTown but what the fuck happened here? Intentional as well.
Some trucker got pissed off? Any of the help truckers know this trucker?
Wow. I'm familiar with that area, and nothing that crazy happens very often there.

I've not been to the Houston campus. But is it any worse than the area around Reckling? I never felt unsafe as a younger man but I would not ask/expect my GF to walk with me in those areas to a game.
The Rice University campus is patrolled by the Rice University PD and most of the exterior area that borders the Rice campus is heavily and safely patrolled by the West University Place Police Department (and not Houston PD), since West University Place is its own incorporated city that exists separate from the city of Houston, even though it's surrounded by Houston.
Even before the decades where the mc-mansions started appearing across West U, West U was a safe place to walk the streets at night by yourself.

Park in a garage downtown and ride the train. If that scares you then you probably should just hunker down in your house
I grew up there. Double No.

Nope!

At the corner of Elgin Street & Cullen Blvd?
They can gentrify the surrounding area all they want, but the same thieves tool around that whole area looking for marks.
Nah, I like my car, and prefer to not have it stolen.

I hadn't heard anyone say it yet on a broadcast, no.

Celebrating xbh and energizing the dugout is objectively good. The idea that this is some new thing that has the potential to start fights is udderly regarded
It's not new; I never said it was new.
I've already seen shortstops and 2nd-basemen try to stop it even in past years, so it's only a matter of time.

Call me an old fart, because I am, but I am not fond of the various choreographed moves when a batter reaches 2nd, either side.
Yep, it's Shit. Outlaw it.
They do it so that if they make the regionals/super-regionals/CWS they can do it for the ESPN/Sportscenter hoopla and claim they were doing all season (so they only do it for months so they can do it in the playoffs).
It's CRINGE, and I remember in '86 when Astros reliever Charlie Kerfeld, after making batters hit weak grounders to the mound, would field the grounders and used to point at the batters and talk shit before tossing the ball to first.
But since the weak NCAA won't even get rid of the fucking multiple Vandy whistlers, I don't expect this cringe second-base shit to end.
Maybe it'll end when there's a half-dozen bench-clearing brawls in a short time as a result of it-- won't that be something to see! Lulz.

HOW ARE THEY GOING TO DRIVE FROM SAN MARCOS TO AUSTIN IN TIME TO START THE GAME AT 7?
And still jump the line for quickies with South Austin's mom first, for that matter? Lulz.

I will bet my "game not on espn+ radio only" wager on that not being correct.
I haven't heard Craig or Ty say anything about it one way or another yet. Lulz.

Just read on 'hub forums that the regularly scheduled game will only be 7 innings in length tonight.

I think I am reading where the finish to game 1 will be on ESPN+ with the normal LHN broadcast for the second game?
Source?
If you look at the graphic, it says LHN.Why would they put LHN in there, then?

The moon's orbit is elliptical and not constant so the distance from the moon to the earth is what determines whether it is a total eclipse or just an annular eclipse. If the moon is too far away the apparent size of the disc is too small to entirely cover up the sun even if it passes directly in front of it, which makes an annular eclipse. The moon needs to be closer to the earth and appear bigger for it to be a total eclipse.
The earth's orbit around the sub is also elliptical and the distance from the earth to the sun and the apparent size of the sun also varies a little bit and also factors into this determination, but the distance to the moon is the main determinant.
Fun fact that I read recently: the moon is slowly moving away from the earth which means that the occurrences when it is big enough to completely cover the sun are gradually getting fewer. Several million years ago in the past there were many more total eclipses and fewer annular eclipses than today. Eventually - like 600 million years from now - the moon will be far enough away that total eclipses will no longer be possible and we will then only have annular eclipses.
Feh.
The moon wanders out a little in its orbit sometimes, and sometimes wanders a little closer in its orbit. I doubt it'll wander out that far without outside forces causing it.
It seems more likely in that amount of time that some other cataclysmic event (another bombardment period, comet/asteroid strike, one of the other planets gets damaged from the same things and sends out debris to cause bombardment here, etc.) happens first before that theory gets a chance to happen.
Besides, if the Earth gets a gamma-ray burst from any black holes aimed at us, we'll be gone so quick that no one will be left to care what happens in 600 million years. So don't worry about it. Lulz.
