Butt Fumble Guy in Critical Condition
Sanchez is married to Perry Mattfeld (yeah, she’s easy on the eyes) and has dated Eva Longoria, Kate Upton, and Jamie-Lynn Sigler. I guess being fit, rich, famous, and somewhat articulate has benefits. That said, what a moron. I sure would not mind being an Eskimo brother, though.

Texas vs. Florida- 2:30pm on ESPN
That last drive was just incredibe. Manning sacked, loses helmet and 10 seconds. Caldwell hits a 26 yard strike, and we benefit from a 15 yard penalty. Manning evades a sack and throws a 40 yard near interception. Manning sacked. I'll stop short of "Caldwell should starts", but Manning's pocket presence and decision making is not very good at all. Just succeeding making normal throws makes this entire offense look better. In that one play - and the handful of plays we've seen of him this year, he has a bit more pocket presence - and less panic - than Manning. Edited to add: the OL did not look as shitty on that one play from Caldwell - which is a subset of my point about "entire offense."

She is a legitimate reporter for the local Fox affiliate, so I am tending to believe it is vetted. This might indicate that Sanchez could be charged.

Indy news and police info shows they responded to a "shots fired" call at a downtown bar and saw 2 injured people: 1 w/ stab wounds; 1 with signs of a physical altercation. No names mentioned, but time and place are consistent with the Sanchez information. Occurred outside/near a bar called Loughmillers, which is between the downtown Westin and Marriott. Walking distance to JW Marriott and Hyatt - across the street from Indiana capital building. Angela Ganote, of Indy Fox89, Tweet content:

Austin ISD School Consolidation
Found an interesting link (Excel file) at the comptroller's site. It is claimed to be the "top 10 taxpayers" for each ISD. Rank, property, valuation. Is this the property value or the value of the property they pay taxes on? I am confused by UT being on the list, as I thought they were tax exempt. Perhaps it is for property owned that is not part of the education arm. Another note: 110 E 2nd Series = JW Marriott. Presently, Jack Olson is representing them in a suit against Travis CAD. He's attorney of record for several suits against Travis CAD. AISD: Eanes: Pecos: Reeves county (#1 and #2 redacted ? - TPL and another?): Ward County:

Austin ISD School Consolidation
The entire thing is enraging. My kids went to RRISD schools and one now teaches at an AISD school. RRISD had similar recapture problems, but nowhere near what AISD is dealing with. Using the 2022-2023 numbers, AISD, Eanes, and RRISD sent $12k, $15k, and $2.5k - per enrollee - to recapture. HISD sent $1.5k per enrollee. Leaving $100mm-$200mm with AISD would enable repairs, teacher comp, etc. that would enhance the quality of the district and, perhaps, mitigate the student migration to private schools. It might actually encourage folks to move into AISD. One (of the many) problems with folks trying to solve these problems is that they overindex on catchy words like "efficiency." First, seek effectiveness; then seek efficiency. Taking something that runs poorly and seeking efficiency ignores the fundamental problems of the system.

AISD has a webpage covering recapture. Some "highlights": In FY2024-25, Austin ISD's estimated recapture payment is $821 million. This reflects a nearly a 400 percent increase in recapture when compared to payment made in FY2014-15. In FY2022-23, Austin ISD paid $624.5 million more in Recapture Payments than the second highest Texas School District. Austin ISD continues to be the largest payer into the state finance system. In FY2022-23, Austin ISD paid $323.2 million more in recapture than the top 10 recapture paying Region 13 Districts combined.

Curious, I searched Bell and Holstein. Most of Bell's coaching gigs - before Pitt - were as a subordinate to his father, Kerwin Bell. Looks like Hostein is being benched in favor of freshman Heintschel. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/46484036/sources-pitt-start-freshman-qb-mason-heintschel-vs-bc

Texas Recruiting Notes 2027: I remember watching his dad play
Fwiw https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_of_American_Universities Texas, Texas A&M, and Rice are the only AAU universities in Texas. Forbes rankings has Trinity, SMU, Houston, TCU, and UTD ahead of TTU. USNews: Baylor, SMU, TCU, UTD, Houston I guess he could give TTU $100mm to money whip a stellar faculty and spend another $100mm to bribe the AAU committee members.

Bad defense. Dumb defense.- Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
Everyone loves a redemption story, especially when the redeemed is high-class, high-integrity individual. Of course, none of that applies to Petrino. They'd have been better off promoting another, more junior, staffer.- NFL Week 4
I thought the same thing. A quick google search indicates she's struggling with migraines. It does sound like she has some sort of neurological issue. /not a doctor.- NFL Week 4
Agree. The Metcalf acquisition was strong: 2nd +7th for Metcalfe + 6th. And traded Pickens + 2027 6th for 2026 3rd and 2027 5th. The 2026 3rd will likely be a top-70 pick. They did have to pay Metcalf 5/150 with $80mm guaranteed. But he is relatively low risk for such a highly capable receiver. The Steelers' defense tends to struggle in the 4th quarter. Need to be up by 2+ TDs for a safe win - Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
