  1. If Texas won out and OU beat Bama, would Texas get into Sec championship game against a@m, or does ole miss also have to lose?
  2. What is the sec championship game situation? If OU beats Alabama, and Texas wins out, Ole Miss has to lose?
  3. That’s really interesting, because in the draft they talked about him as an off-guard and not a pg. If he can play the point that would be huge. I missed the first few games of the season because I hadn’t bought the regional sports package yet. I was waiting to see how much they improved.
  4. I think this coach must have some unique ideas about how to win.
  5. One way to interpret this is as a threat to Texas for the future. The other way to interpret this is as a golden hilarious future as we watch A&M rinse and repeat the Jimbo experience.
  6. I had quit watching the Spurs much in the last few years because of the re-build. This year I’ve been all-in on them. Here are some random observations about this team: 1. They lack another important power forward. They need to create more balance, and have better D down in the lane. 2. Fox was a terrible get, at the price he costs. He’s a good but not great player. He’s also too limited on defense. We need to see more of Harper but I thought he wasn’t capable of playing the point? If not, then this team will never reach the promised land with Fox at point. 3. They don’t have enough pure scorers who can create their own shot. Vassell and Castle are being relied on too much. They need one more strong scorer who can provide instant offense, especially down the stretch. 4. They hustle, but their defense isn’t good enough. They get beat by back cuts all the time. 5. Johnson is just too frustrating. A ton of hustle but too many mistakes. Hopefully Castle’s mistakes drop as he gets more experience/better. 6. Barnes is an ok complementary player but has limited value. This team is 2-3 players away from really competing, primarily because of the lack of offense, defense, and excellent pg play.
  7. Fox isn’t worth anywhere near what he’s getting paid.
  8. I spent 25 years starting or joining tech startups building the most advanced technologies. I was competing against every smart ass on the planet, including brainiacs from MIT, Europe and Asia. I could have made as much money, or more, with way less stress, by learning how to repair an AC unit and creating a AC company in Austin. Or doing construction. I know a lot of people with average to below average intelligence who made a fortune by competing in markets full of regards.
  9. I’m dying to get into some sort of business agreement with you, that then goes south. I’ll own your house someday.
  10. I think this is the most pathetic photo I’ve ever seen.
  11. Between this stupid change and the micro entry bar for typing in websites, Apple has lost their mind. A bunch of morons.
  12. I don’t understand what they are doing. It now completely screws up the whole typing process. You can’t highlight text without hitting the check button and then going back in. Its absolutely asinine.
  13. My config is an iPhone 12 mini. The browser is Safari. When I type from Chrome, no issue. So looks like a Safari specific issue.
  14. I don’t even know acc had a football team.
  15. This frustration with the Mavs doesn’t stop at Nico. You have someone with a mind boggling amount of money that doesn’t care about you as a fan, doesn’t care about a lot of people in this country, and only wants to get more, more, more money. They want to fully control your life, and take as much as they possibly can from you. Until Americans realize this and start responding accordingly, nothing will get better, only worse. Tickets to downstairs NBA tickets of a regular season game in decent seating areas already cost $400+ per seat. The days of the average American taking their kids to a ball game are over. And it will continue to get worse over the next decade until 85%+ of the population can’t go to sporting events. That’s where it’s headed. But ya, Nico does suck and it’s good he’s gone. But he’s only a small part of the problem.
  16. Bozo has the mistaken view that pointing out the true reality of a situation is somehow nothing more than a Republican talking point. That logic is so flawed it’s mind bottling. These are two different topics.
  17. You’re living in a fantasy world.
  18. The optimism about the 2026 midterms is wrong, imo. The 2025 election success was in areas with a significant bent towards Democrats. Next year, the incompetency of the Democrats in messaging and actions will not win them enough votes to matter.
  19. Jesus would someone cut off Perdue’s mike? I’m not ready for my NyQuil yet.
  20. Dude. They are like $30. Buy 10.
