  1. I never heard of this guy until a few hours ago, so I’m going to go ahead and declare him to be a critical missing piece to the roster who will have a huge impact on the team’s success this year. All joking aside, it seems like every elite college team has an inside bruiser who can play physical down in the box. I’ve been wishing for that for Texas for years. We’ve had a few guys somewhat like that, but if this guy could fill that role it would be huge imo.
  2. I always read that complaint from the CR crowd, but personally I haven’t seen it. Not saying it’s not happening. I just haven’t noticed it. And it’s difficult for me to believe @immamac is doing much of that because he’s politically pretty reasonable. Bob too.
  3. I agree with @immamac. It’s fairly straightforward to figure out what becomes CR and what is just news, for the most part. And while I dislike the maga crowd with the heat of a thousand suns, I don’t want to scroll thru news threads and constantly have to read the same 10-20 posters bitch about the stupidity of the Republican Party. Why not? Because they are doing so many stupid things these days it’s turned into a constant barrage of stupidity. Every fucking day Trump and his staff do something stupid, illegal, or immoral. And people, myself included, just can’t take that misery constantly every day. It’s too depressing. Just keep that shit in a CR thread and it’s manageable.
  4. It’s hard for me to hold parents responsible for not looking deeper into the flood safety procedures of these camps, when just five days ago I made a reservation on the Blanco River in an RV park and never once thought about the flood risk.
  5. Culpable? He’s probably why Finley did it.
  6. Every stupid thing a kid does is a data point about his or her character. Doesn’t necessarily mean they will suck as athletes for their college, but odds are odds.
  7. Did Austin firefighters deploy to Liberty Hill and Georgetown? Because I know for a fact that Round Rock firefighters deployed to Liberty Hill and performed numerous water rescues and evacuations.
  8. I don’t think King George is Rex.
  9. Admit you spent 9 hours crafting your post.
  10. Yes, I mentioned it above somewhere. San Saba is tore up on the east side and the river is still very wide and flowing hard.
  11. San Saba county has a flood warning until 7 pm Tuesday.
  12. Pouring in leander
  13. Just drove thru San Saba. Lots of out of town fire trucks in the area. The San Saba River is swollen big. Floods cut thru on east side of town. And it’s pouring rain a mile east of town. Fortunately it’s moving east.
  14. Do those apps cause the Apple Watch battery to burn down fast? I’m unclear whether it’s turning on the gps, or using gps from the iPhone.
  15. Oh hell no. Scorpio’s the best poster in this site.
  16. Thank you sooo much. This is exactly what I had been trying unsuccessfully to find.
  17. Finally put a poster on ignore that I should have years ago. He’s incredibly unfunny but thinks he is. No more scrolling thru his garbage posts.
  18. Google maps shows 183 closed at the North San Gabriel . Is that not the case?
  19. Good ideas, if I can figure out how to navigate thru 183 or i35 near town. So is 29 still screwed? I can’t find any information.
  20. So we need just a little bit of help. I’m trying to accompany my daughter and grandkids back from the San Angelo area to Round Rock tomorrow. I’m trying to figure out the safest path back, but the problem is that both San Saba and Llano are showing extensive flooding. So I don’t know if it’s clear on 190 east thru San Saba. It seems like 29 thru Llano is toast. Thoughts?
  21. I’m guessing about 50%.
  22. Just had a family member drive from Kingsland to Austin. 71 was fine. 1431 has closed spots.
  23. Does anyone know what’s going on in Liberty Hill? My Son in law is a fireman and has been doing water rescues and evacuations all night. I assume it’s something to do with the north branch of the San Gabriel?
