  1. That last set of posts is just amazing. The guy blaming some AP poll posting glitch on a “sip” operative made me laugh out loud. That has to be a troll, right? If it wasn’t an aggie, I’d be certain that that post was a troll job.
  2. Good thoughts. The fact that this dude is just scratching the surface of his capabilities is pretty damned exciting.
  3. 1) That one dude seems right regarding McCutcheon not being a take. I like the guy as a prospect, personally. I also liked Chase, who I think is headed to OU. DM is a back burner/slowplay for Banks and Sarkisian while they continue to target higher ranked guys committed elsewhere. I’m not going to be surprised if Jackson is a little irritated with this situation and cycle. 2) The McGuire guy is interesting on two fronts. a) He’s redefining the term “Black Irish”, for sure. b) They must see something they really like besides just his massive size that no doubt gets Flood more excited than it should. They’re running the guy through the program as fast as they can, I think. No redshirt, garbage minutes, no buzz. Parker Livingstone came to Texas to do two things: 1) Slay as much pussy as quickly as possible. 2) Stand on the sidelines of Texas games and cheer on the non-JAGgers getting playing time and making plays. This fucking guy is absolutely crushing it. Good for him.
  4. It’s not the thread, doofus. It’s the actual concept of how forums work. There’s a political forum where boring political comparisons and bad political jokes can be made. You can go there and even use really lame nicknames for the candidates you like or don’t like. It’s apparently a total blast for those so inclined. And then you have everything else here where the rest of us just don’t find it amusing, and it’s almost always divisive. So when you bring it out of that forum, it’s fucking irritating. This isn’t some scenario where you get it and we don’t, or you’re right and none of us can see that. You aren’t smart enough to win here and you do not have high ground. Now get right or get fucked.
  5. You are correct. This is a thread of screenshots from aggie sites and then we all point and laugh in unison. What you seem to obliviously miss is that that’s all this is. No one here wants to read unfunny political shit, dummy. We don’t care what side the content is on, it doesn’t need to be here. So go get fucked by not owning your boring, uncreative bandwidth drain. Negged.
  6. I saw in the box score that Flacco is playing. What happened to Richardson?
  7. You say a lot of stupid shit and you do it at a rapid, voluminous rate. You’re like a shit howitzer, just fucking blasting the board with constant bullshit.
  8. And nether of them have been in my kitchen.
  9. I think this scene was originally in Zelda 2 on Nintendo.
  10. Ummm…. HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!
  11. You guys are out of your fucking minds if you think Wisner resembles Keilan Robinson in the least. Jesus. I’m glad Wisner is in the program and all, and I know Choice thinks he’s got a future in the NFL, but we haven’t seen that yet. And dude isn’t good enough to sit out games if he’s remotely capable of being able to go. I assume his ass is out there today.
  12. Let’s keep the Super Mario universe out of this.
  13. I’ve let my kids taste margaritas when they were little. Never thought twice about it. This kind of anger is bizarre.
  14. Boy, Banks really does have some serious idiot mixed into his DNA. I remember hearing about him accidentally sending a dick pic to the wrong Taylor while he was still married. Hamm, of course, used it in an attempt to blackmail Banks for recruiting information.
  15. We're all posting on a bulletin board/forum. Being here is showing all of our ages.
  16. Which is the 3rd for the season? Anthony tried to come back too soon and he’s a shadow of himself. Anderson was accused of goldbricking and then fully reopened his quad wound. Venables has been flat out lying about Burks and had his hand forced on the report last night. Is he actually done for the year as some of the more respected posters have implied on your boards? I could believe that 4 are done for the year and Farooq is a wildcard in terms of when he returns. The loss of the kicker is comical. Appendicitis saps a lot of strength, too. That’s a wildcard recovery as well.
  17. Ahead of the dawn of NIL, we all debated what it could all mean, and many argued various points about the presence of the bag game in that future era. -Some proclaimed that NIL wouldn’t matter and that the bag game would rage on. -Others said the bag game would disappear forever. -Some of us discussed how dark markets function even when an open market is also present. The latter is what has unfolded. Just like bootlegging moonshine still exists as a thing, the bag game is still around for purpose with those willing to be involved. It’s not prominent, but it can make an appearance if a player or family is connected to someone willing to take a bag in lieu of the right long term answer for the player. This could be a street agent or a trainer or, kind of unbelievably, a high school coach. Many times in the past few years, the stickiness of that character in a recruitment has been melted away if the family can get back to a campus where the coaches can get real about the earning power through NIL and the player’s rights.
  18. This is a dark description, vividly portraying the soulless banality of a niche in corporate America. Only someone who’s lived it could tell it so well.
  19. I don’t know the reality, but I certainly can believe this is the deal. It would fucking piss me off to be a part of that collective, if so. Geoff Ketchum’s fat fucking mouth likely spared us this kind of bullshit with this selfish fat ass and his handler.
  20. I asked myself that question - who is the worst P4 team in the country this season? It’s either UH or Miss State. I guess you could throw Purdue in there potentially. The results weren’t very compelling. There are only a few truly terrible P4 teams this year and Miss State may be the worst of all of them.
  21. Texas isn’t the only team pushing for 9 conference games and you have to assume that wins out. That will put Texas back to 10 P4 games because they’re going to continue to schedule a tough non-con. Supposedly, the one thing Texas really is pushing is ending the FCS bullshit. The networks aren’t fans of those games either. ULM and Kent State aren’t big ratings draws, but they absolutely outperform nonsense like playing Mercer or Furman.
  22. So, just reading tea leaves, it looks like ATM went desperate again when it comes to winning a DT against Texas. The Elk was involved with the Fisher recruiting approach of just going fucking nuts to win any DT or Edge that they could buy and keep away from UGa, LSU and Bama. Forget any other positions, if you land the defensive front guys that everyone covets, then you will surely win titles. I guess we’ll see how it works out, but so far, that approach has been a comical disaster. The biggest part of problem looks like development, or lack thereof. The Elk is a good defensive coach, but he is a dogshit coach when it comes to development.
  23. He’s the DJU of DTs. Some idiot P4 program is absolutely going to shell out more cash and convince themselves that they can fix him.
  24. Something else that is kind of crazy to me is that, all of the sudden, The Elk is listing Enai White on the availability list. He’s not even “out”. He’s listed as “questionable” all of the sudden. Dude has been persona non grata with them since his injury last fall, now he’s in danger of showing up in a game? I’m honestly wondering if the conference didn’t call them out on listing the guy.
