  1. Meh. The Kings would be up 15 on OKC right now.
  2. Lol get back on D Chet you fucking dweeb.
  3. Is, um, is Megan also at the game?
  4. Not driving to the fucking airport?
  5. Just saw this one. Guessing most of you are already familiar with the stat. Randy Johnson had 212 career games with 10 KS. No other left-hander has 200. How many other left-handers have 100?
  6. ? He's saying that Earl could have easily gotten stuck playing cornerback but got an opportunity to play safety and the rest is history.
  7. What about RE-introductions?
  8. Earl Thomas is the best DB to ever play at Texas. He doesn't have the same accolades as the other guys because he only played 2 seasons and left early. These debates generally boil down to how much you weigh what they did at Texas vs. what they did as pros.

    I'm not sure I know what you're looking for but I would love to participate. Something like this maybe?
  10. If I can play a little (or a lot) Devil's advocate... These weren't comps. These were friendlies. In the first one I thought outside of Cardoso being a fucking jackass we probably outplayed Turkey. In the second one we got completely embarrassed but I would have believed that based on the dogshit XI we started the game with. In both games we played a lot of guys that both have no business being on the pitch for us in '26 and also will not be on the pitch for us in '26. There appears to be an overall give a shit/play for the shirt issue but I don't know how much of that is the coach and how much of that is the players. Poch's back is against the wall. He has had a few windows now to experiment with shit and throw a bunch of stuff at the drawing board. I hope that is what he has been doing and he has maybe figured something out - because there is a good XI somewhere in this pool that he has available to him for the Gold Cup. That said... I don't like the overall attitude. I don't like how guys that we are calling up are showing up for our country. Guys like Tillman and Cardoso are straight up embarassing the shirt. I'm not sure I like the coach. Then again - all most of you did for years was ask for the coach to be fired thinking it would fix everything - while I repeatedly highlighted how ass our back 4 and lack of depth there was. I want to see what we do in the Gold Cup. After that - if we look like this same level of dick - I'll freak out with the rest of you and the best of you. But - I think there's a chance that we come out and look pretty fucking good. I'm just not gonna give up quite yet. I'm probably not going to give up until Pulisic and McKennie and Adams and Antonee are out there for a full 90' and we get sent home from our own World Cup. These are my fucking guys and I refuse to believe that we're this bad.
  11. I'm just saying compared to guys that play on the PGA Tour full time his stats/numbers are going to be very noisy. Due to sample size, different events etc. I'm not saying he's actually a more accurate driver - just that I don't really trust some of that stuff for Bryson the way I would trust it comparing two PGA guys. I mean he may be worse than what that data shows for all I know.
  12. Fuck yeah you do. He's good for the game. That video was awesome. The kids and casual fans fucking adore him. Maybe most of them are idiots; YMMV. It feels like we have more personalities and stud players right now than we've had in a really long time. The Tiger era was kind of its own thing where you had everyone always behind one guy. Post that you had stars like Rory or Spieth or DJ or Brooks but they never seemed to overlap in a way that really raised the stakes or drama level. It never seemed to really coalesce or gain much momentum pitting any of them against each other. Now it feels like there is real shit on the line during every major - in a way that probably hasn't been felt since like the 70s. Rory is officially a megastar post his Masters win but Scottie is trying to be the next Tiger, basically, and steal his thunder. And yet Bryson is probably more popular than either and keeps trying to throw a wrench in shit. Not to mention all of the other awesome players. Idk. Feels like a super fun time for golf. We just need to get them all back on the same tour.
  13. That's disingenuous. He only plays majors. And even if he is - being longer is typically better than being more accurate.
  14. I just think it's cool as fuck that he posted a full round like this and we can debate it 😂 You're probably right about hitting on to the green but he also left some putts short. Idk if he's more comfortable on a 10 or 14 vs. the field. I think if you're BDC you need either good iron play and good putting or great one or the other. He's always going to be a menace off the tee unless he's just whiffing shit. Yeah he needs to come back. He was winning a bunch before he left.
  15. I would feel more clueless if I didn't think there's a bit of a top echelon right now. Scottie has 2 since the start of last year. X has 2. Bryson has 1 and flirted with a couple others. Rory has his, obviously, and flirted with the US Open last year. I just don't see a weird winner this week. Unless you think someone like Aberg is weird.
  16. Watching it right now and soft or not it's cold and windy in the vid. Also not sure that greens being slower/faster really bug someone like him.
  17. His content in general is pretty awesome. I obviously love the guy and root for him hard but a lot of that is just association. I get why people don't like him and even for me he can still be a little off-putting sometimes. That said - he seems like a good dude that cares about the game and the fans and as much as any other player he works his fucking ass off. Think this is going to be an interesting week. You can't not like Scottie. I also think the Rory stuff has swung so far in one direction that I wouldn't be surprised if he's like a shot off the lead thru 36. Seems like a fucky setup that could produce an interesting leaderboard.
  18. I'm hearing a lot of other sports mentioned but if Texas would have just won the national title in football no one would give a shit about any of this anyways.
  19. We all get laid?
  20. Pretty much the same. They're both pussies that don't take well to the weight of the shirt (which might weigh a little more if we got rid of the fucking rainbow numbers). Tolkin seems like he gives a shit but he's just not a very good player. Agyameng basically the same. Luna is awesome. McGlynn has promise. We need more dirtbags that actually give a shit. For everyone talking shit about CP he fits that mold and doesn't let being a Euro star detract from it. We have no back 4. The closest to it is if we can patchwork something together with Jedi, Dest and Adams all healthy but we have a better chance of Selena Gomez giving me a handjob. Not sure we really have a keeper. The pool is a mess. The chemistry feels like a mess. Our health - like always - is a mess. I think my only hope coming out of this is that Poch knows who doesn't want it and who he can't play in '26. But that's probably wishful thinking. We'll see how the Gold Cup goes, I guess.
  21. The last time we lost 4 straight was 2007.
  22. Forget allowing 4 goals - 0 shots on goal is fucking embarassing.
  23. I'd be cool if I never saw Tillman play another game for us.
  24. I'll tune in for Luna. I say that then I see whatever that was from Agyemang. We look intent on embarassing ourselves for the full 90.
