  1. I checked our fridges and freezers last night.  Freezers are actually holding up, although tonight, I'm bagging up anything worth saving and taking it to my dad's to put in his extra freezer space.
    Fridges are already a total loss.  There are a few things in there (jellies, sauces) that can handle not being refrigerated for a few days, but everything else -- adios.  And of course, trash pickup was....yesterday.  So, will have that rank shit in the trash for a week.  And all-in-all, that will be our "big loss," so counting our blessings.
    Yeah, that's the double kick to the nuts.

    No power and $300+ of groceries that we never ate.

    Still no trucks in our part of 31. Not a word from AE.

    I get it, the work is tough and time consuming, but I'd like to know where we are in line so I can plan. I think we were one of the first to lose power late Tuesday/ early wed.

    I'm also keeping an eye on PECs outage map and watching that thing make more progress than AE.
  2. Just seems like they could've followed the first and second round models and split regional semis between Thurs and Friday and regional finals on Sat/ Sunday. Or at least put us in the evening on LHN.

    How many more viewers does a 2pm game on espn2 get vs the viewers of a primetime game on LHN?

  3. Right before tipoff I was worried about the crowd. The pic is just before they announced the starting lineups. It got better. Great time tonight and I have a few thoughts for later but now it’s time for a celebratory cocktail or 2 downtown.

    I think all the people that sit in those empty seats in your picture are just 100 feet back in the club that's right behind those sections. The seats fill in quick because those people don't have far to go before tip.
  4. Late in the first half the Texas fans by the band were in the RGV coach’s head calling him “Humpty Dumpty”. He came WAY out on the court during the game IN PROGRESS and started yelling at the fans. They egged him on and I thought he was going into the stands.

    Early in the first half we were about to shoot free throws so it was getting real quiet and their coach yells something to one of his players. It was absolutely silent and one of those students yells "shut up coach!"

    At halftime when RGV was headed to the locker room their coach was headed towards the students and not to the locker room and just jawing at those students. They were giving it right back.
  5. They claimed they reviewed it when they said "oh never mind Texas didn't take a timeout". BUT I have yet to see any video evidence of Kevin Mar actually going over to the little bullshit screen they set up to review stuff.
    Yup. The White Hat said they were reviewing the play, but I think he meant "we were going over the play with sark"
