  1. Great input. I will stick to HEB $7 Wednesday sushi for the kids! When it's open.
  2. The Rice Box on Morningside? Oh yeah. That looks like something they would enjoy.
  3. Don't really need "kid friendly". The boys are pretty sophisticated when it comes to food : ) I looked at Lucille's but that's another one that closes early on Sunday. I'll look at Gypsy and Late. Thanks again guys!
  4. Thanks again! I don't know Houston, so I didn't realize what the Museum District had to offer. After doing some google map exploring, I decided on that area. Paying less for a room at Hotel Zaza then I would downtown. Doesn't look like a long Uber to Toyota Center. Sunday the family can walk around that whole museum and park area. Boys(10 and 12) and my wife will love the Museum of Natural History, which is opened Sunday. Then we can hang out by the pool when I get back from coaching. Looking forward to a little vacation since this summer was so hectic. Looking at Sunday dinner plans. Thoughts on MF Sushi or Fia's Pizza? Any other recommendations for that area on a Sunday? Grangers looks a little fancy. Lien's Viet Kitchen caught my eye, but they close early on Sunday.
  5. Great feedback. Since I'm leaving the fam for most of Sunday, I want them to have something to do. I like the location since we can walk to the show Saturday night. I just want them to have something to do on Sunday without driving. Discovery Green looks neat, but I don't see anything on the calendar for Sept 21st. Hilton is right there also as is Embassy Suites. Would I better off staying somewhere else and then we just Uber to and from concert? My boys would probably appreciate the Museum of Natural History, and that is opened on Sunday. Hotel ZaZa has some rooms available. Sound like a better plan?
  6. yikes... damn. Thank you both for the input. I'm wondering if a Sunday in late September might be a little more tolerable? Just seems so convenient.
  7. Taking family to a concert at Toyota Center on a Saturday night, then have water polo stuff all day up in CFISD the next day. Rather then make the family come with me and wait around all day for me, I thought we make it a little vacation and make it two nights. Is the Marriot Marquis worth it for the lazy river and pool for the kids (10 and 12). I figure they can hang at the hotel all day Sunday, then when I get done we could do something as a family that night. Astros are at home that night so that's a possibility. Then Space Museum on Monday before heading back to SA. So, Marriot Marquis for the location and stuff to do? Looks like the only driving i would need to do is for my coaching on Sunday and departure on Monday. What other property has a nice outdoor pool?
  8. I'm looking forward to it. Spent some time playing Hell Let Loose to get away from some of the COD crap. Wish I had discovered that game earlier.
  9. Go Green! Started my Michigan State Masters of Applied Sports Sciences program this week.
  10. Jesus. Keep driving for the win or a tie. Dumb
  11. Coach is stupid
  12. No, we cant be spending that money on those things. Jesus...
  13. Heading up to Round Rock tomorrow morning. Is he still playing? If so, come say hello. We play RR at 10:00 and 11:00.
  14. Which team if you don't mind me asking? My Girls team has been to our Regional Final three years in a row. We are rebuilding this year, but still played well enough to play in Gold.
  15. We played them. Your game against Bridgeland was good. I was scouting you all for that and I could tell Stratford was the one team that probably should have been in the Gold division. I think y'all were in the strongest boys bracket to start. My boys are small and young, so I knew it was going to be an uphill battle.
  16. You really don't, and your posts on this forum have shown that. I'm glad you take part here as a SA resident as you should. I mean that sincerely. But man your takes, from culture, to food, to sports, have been pretty bad. I don't know what you have been doing for these 12 years, but it sounds like you have done everything you can to not embrace this city. Are you here by choice? I'm guessing no. It sounds like wherever you live, you stay close to home, and don't venture out much. And if you do, it's never to try something new and unique.
  17. And all the loud online voices sound just as misinformed as Helo. Who is paying more taxes?
  18. I watched. Plenty of support. So many who “claimed” they just want to slow it down were already wearing No Project Marvel. lol.
  19. Still playing for Stratford? They were down at our tournament this past weekend.
  20. Fair enough. Honestly, I haven't been to many of the more modern domes, so my perspective isn't well rounded
  21. Just curious, How often have you been to the Alamodome? What do you mean by structural shortcomings? The city isn't getting an NFL team and there is no need to make that a focal point of upgrading. I've been a season ticket holder for UTSA games since Day 1. They have done some slow upgrades, and every time it's an improvement. I get the sense that it's always been the popular thing to bash the dome, since it has always been "different", but games there are great, and there isn't a bad seat in the house.
  22. Hoping for the best. Always liked Battlefield more than COD
  23. Yeah, just out back in the narrow area with a stage I think. Long time ago....
