  1. I don’t understand their college football business model or content creation. Rece Davis hosted the biggest BIg Ten honk Dan Wetzel on his show today, and of course Dan spent the full 22 minutes blowing fOSU and Oregon. ESPN will not, checks notes, broadcast a single Big Ten regular season game this year. ESPN went out of their way to hire Wetzel away from Yahoo Sports. I can understand keeping your powder dry to buy RedZone and the NFL Network, but why the hell are they spending money on “talent” like Wetzel that they’ll never use?
  2. The sneak peak looked amazing. Tomorrow night should be interesting.
  3. MLB rule that they had to send a prospect back to the Twins? Why did the Padres want to deal Cease if they’re buyers? It feels like they were bullshitting the Astros all day and trying to fool Dana into dealing Brice.
  4. Jesus has 2 more years of club control. Nice.
  5. Sanchez and Smith are too talented for a platoon right? I’ll agree Cam has played a lot of baseball and needs some days off.
  6. Lagway’s orthopedic surgeon.
  7. So they think Yordan is coming back right? They need a lot more pop than Urias.
  8. Whomever cooked up Correa-Astros rumors for clicks is a fucking genius.
  9. Rewatching the 2024 LSU-Florida on SECN. Lacy is every other LSU highlight. Only at LSU could the following happen and absolutely no one talks about it. - Lacy goes from first round draft pick to a wanted man after killing a 78 year old man in a car accident and leaving the scene. - Commits suicide during a police chase in Houston. Why wasn’t this the biggest SEC story of the offseason? Can you imagine if this happened at fOSU, Texas, or Saban Era Bama?
  10. Wow. Maybe the darkest episode yet. That was Apocalypse Now of IASIP.
  11. Yep. Javier is a borderline 2, and Spaghetti was pitching the best on the team before he broke his hand. He’s at worst an above league average 3.
  12. Correct. Doering said LSU - Georgia in Atlanta. They gave him shit about not picking OU to win the conference because of his man crush on Mateer. He replied with “oh I have OU in the CFP. A&M too.”
  13. Doering just predicted OU and aggy will make the CFP. Georgia - LSU in the conference championship. The guy either hates Texas or he’s dumber than a bag of hammers.
  14. Hope so. Not sure he has the wheels.
  15. Who’s the Golden this year? I dont think there is one. That’s the ceiling on the offense. I think Arch’s legs will solve most of our redzone issues. The defense doesn’t have a ceiling in my opinion.
  16. What’s the price tag for Suarez? I’d guess Matthews + our top pitching prospect. It’d only worth it if we hang another banner.
  17. The SEC Now crew is pretty rough. Doering and Stinchcomb probably require a nurse to feed them after broadcasts. They make Desmond sound like a brain surgeon. Roman Harper is better, but he can only speak intelligently on 1 subject. Alabama DB’s. Dari is a good host, but he doesn’t really pontificate. He feeds the guys lead ins and they talk over graphics that cost $1.25 to generate. While I like SEC Storied, and True South has its moments, SECN original programming is dogshit. I wish they’d just rerun SEC games from last year on a 24 hour loop.
  18. I think Nagy and Stephenson are firmly entrenched. The NFL already told Nagy no thanks, and Stephenson very publicly failed in the private sector. Their employment options outside of OU Athletics would probably consist of running an offshore crypto mine.
  19. Best beef sausage in Houston? I’m talking City Market in Luling style.
  20. Not a great experience with Pizarro’s delivery recently. I guess I live too close in, so they told me I was out of their delivery area. The guy on the phone was real curt and told me to use favor. So I order it from Favor, and of course it’s like $10 cheaper than ordering directly from the restaurant. The delivery driver was all over it, but the pizza was cold when it arrived. It was good though. Neapolitan pie with ricotta and meatballs. I don’t think Neapolitan pies travel well. Better done in next time.
  21. They jump the shark about once a quarter, but this is worse than the Lebowski robe.
  22. Are there any shades that don’t fog up when you leave the car for outside? My Ray Bans fog up so bad I have to pull them off to se anything.
  23. RE: Baxter I think we’ll be fine. He’d be nice to have against fOSU and Florida. I hope he’s back by OU, but Gibson probably gives Texas 85% of what Baxter does.
  24. Better than Bradley Beal is not a high bar to clear.
