  1. Because he's not our standard and I guess he wanted to do more than slay west campus sorority pussy and do the kickoffs. That seems like a bad idea to me, but it's his life so, whatever.
  2. Bagwell was actually an awesome hitting coach for the 3 months he did it before he decided that he'd rather not live that lifestyle when he could booze it up back home. Came closer to making chicken salad out of chicken shit than any other hitting coach we've ever had.
  3. And that TD last week on the roll right goalie play was absurd. He kept getting deeper when running for a TD was absolutely an option, then he held the ball forever and strung the play out himself, needlessly. I had a great basically all 22 angle on that at the game and was just perplexed by the entire thing- even though it worked out fine. Hes getting better for sure. He also has sooooooo much work to do to get where he needs to be. He does all the things Ewers was shitty at really well. But. It should show how elite Ewers was at things fans don’t consider important that we were as good as we were last 2 years while he was so shitty at some stuff, and we’ve been on balance bad with Arch even with him doing a lot of stuff well.
  4. We ain’t losing to no Vandy especially in ATX. pull yourself together.
  5. False. No way a 10-3 texas gets left out. Especially when one loss is at Ohio state and the other would have to be in the SEC title game
  6. He sort of sucked in the first 2 drives against same (scored TD and didn’t throw incomplete but ball was in wrong spot and/or to the wrong guy, but he played legitimately good after that. He’s going on 10 quarters in a row of pretty solid play. After about 10 quarters of shitty play to open the season.
  7. I saw it. It actually made the Florida game worse for me bc I said arch was fine/good given the context unlike OSU where it felt like he was point shaving. Fixing 1 guy is easier/better than fixing the entire team which was the difference between OSU game and Florida.
  8. It’s at their place. 13.5 is my guess. I mean, yeah. For sure.
  9. They suck. We should win convincingly Texas is 4-2. We need to go 10-2 to make the playoffs. We aren’t losing to these retards. drink some bourbon. Beautiful trip if you want to go. They suck. We will be 5-2 after this week. It’s a 2 game season- at Georgia and aggy at home. We are better than both (I think). We just have to keep getting better against these losers.
  10. Arch was good against Sam. Fine against Florida. Good against OU. I’m no longer super worried about him going full rested like OSU and UTEP. Whatever. We can win a national title with what we saw the last 2 weeks if everyone else is good. What we saw makes me believe he can get to winning bc of him as opposed to in spite of him.
  11. Because we are probably better than them? At least without their QB
  12. I forgot about that TCU game. He was probably worse there than Ok State.
  13. That okie state game Quinn looked like he was point shaving. I think that was the last true road game we’ve lost in conference. Compared to that game I thought Arch looked good. But yeah- on balance Wuinn from the last 2 seasons way better then arch this season so far.
  14. Arch was terrible against OSU and a lot of SJSU and pretty much all of UTEP. He was fine today in the context of how the team go whipped. If he keeps up this progression he will be fine, probably, sometime next year. If this shit OL doesn’t get him killed first.
  15. Well, first I was unconcerned after losing to OSU, then I was lambasted for surrendering after a pretty terrible Week 2 performance. What I witnessed in the swamp today personally was about as bad as I’ve seen Texas physically whipped since that terrible September 11 performance against Arkansas’s in Year 1 of Sark. it’s Texas OU week and we are a cornered animal that’s wounded and desperate. All our goals are still in front of us if we don’t lose another game. This team, as it’s currently configured, could lose somewhere approaching…. Checks schedule… 7 more games. I think the worst part of it was that Arch wasn’t terrible like against OSU and UTEP, there were some calls that were really good (seriously Wingo- you couldn’t do any better than that with a wide open guy 20 yards from you?) but we just got basically physically whipped by a team that’s probably going to lose 7 games and refused to take advantage of the myriad of ways they tried to give the game away to us because their coach is a low grade moron. OU probably sort of sucks especially without their big time transfer QB. If we want to keep this season from being a gigantic smoking crater we are going to have to play eleventy billion percent better than we did today. let’s do it.
  16. King tuck in playoff form. 0-3 with a k.
  17. If I was trading Pena I’d want TOR with no control and less prospects but ok- that might be worth it.
  18. I also had us trading Walker, melton and Mathews and meyers and signing an ace, so… pretty sure if we did all the shit I suggested we’d be set up to be a playoff team and better in years to come. if we trade Pena I’d rather keep Dubon and platoon him and Urias at SS and keep Correa at 3rd. What would you be looking at trading Pena for- a TOR guy in his walk year and a top 100 prospect?
  19. I didn’t even see that. I’d still give him 30/75 as an extension. He gets the Bobby Bonilla treatment if he wants it!
  20. That would only take him through his age 33 season. I don’t think Cubans lie about their age- their med system keeps records. I know people always say this but I think that’s Dominicans that are notorious for that not Cubans.
  21. In his last 11 starts of the year he gave up 24 Earned runs. That’s a tougher pitching environment. He basically takes the ball every 5 days, puts up innings, and is only 30 years old. I would imagine he’s looking for at least 6/150 i just fact checked myself, and Spotrac (feel like they are usually low) says 6/138 and athletic says 7/178 so I’m in the ballpark. I might give that to him. I’d rather do that with him than Framber after that melt down the last 2 months.
  22. You are pretty convinced nobody will value him as a top 5 hitter in the game. He looked like that after he got his hand fixed. I think you are a prisoner of the moment with that and there are absolutely teams that would still value him that way. If there’s not I haven’t seen ANYONE say you move him just to move him. If they said that it would be silly. There’s only one way to find out how the market would value him though. My other suggestion would be to offer him a 30/75 extension. If his maker is really that depressed around the league maybe he’s got the same concerns and would do that deal. of course, all of this suggests you have a medical staff you can trust that isn’t hammered dog shit terrible at their jobs. We don’t, so that’s kind of a problem.
  23. I have ALWAYS said that a managers number 1 job is to not piss off/bum out the team he’s leading and make it a pain to come to work every day. That’s true. I’d be completely opposed to hiring a dickhead that made everyone miserable (looking at you Terry Collin and maybe Jimy Williams). That said, that’s not his only job and he fails basically everything beyond that. The fact that there would be zero interest in him (and that like 5 teams he interviewed with were like- nope) speaks really really loudly.
  24. I mean, depends on the offer. I’d probably trade my wife and kids for the right offer but it would have to be pretty spectacular. I’d trade you to the rangers thread for a half eaten ham Sandwhich. Yordan probably falls somewhere in between. 😛
  25. Espada is such an easy call- if he got fired tomorrow would he have a single interview for head job anywhere? No! then what are you doing having him as your manager if that’s true (and it is) Put another way in the same light: What is it that he brings to the table as a plus guy?
