Texas Offseason 2025 - Archmania Is Upon Us
Overshown was on The Ticket this morning. Such a great guy. Said Arch looks incredible and is a national championship quality QB. Said the team looks great. If our OL performs this team can be really really good.

I'll Admit It -- I Watched the Friends Reunion and Really Enjoyed It.
Your assessment is level headed and reasonable. There are, however, a billion people who go insane over the show.

All Hail Pork thread
Question for folks experienced with cooking pork shoulder. We don't cook a pork butt or shoulder very often but when we opened the package today, there's a pretty strong smell. I vaguely remember this being typical for opening up pork butt or pork shoulder packages, but I'm a bit concerned maybe the meat has gone bad? It looks normal red, no gray, and the smell does seem to dissipate after awhile. That's just the packaged smell, right? I think I had this concern the last few times I fixed carnitas, but I can't recall.

I'll Admit It -- I Watched the Friends Reunion and Really Enjoyed It.
Channel surfed by an episode of Friends and it confirmed my thesis that it’s the most over-rated show in TV history, and Gordon Keith backs me up on this so there’s no point in arguing over it. It’s science.

OU Recruiting 2023: Blowing and Going
Wow. This is incredible. It also shows how the ranking services don’t know shit about fuck, although lack of development may be partially to blame here.

All Encompassing Investment and Financial Planning Thread for the Surly 99.5%
Its really ridiculous. You go to all this trouble to save on taxes, only to just give it all up to a financial planner who basically has the right professional software to do the analysis correctly. None of the consumer software products are good enough.

Getting old sucks
I went back to Dallas to visit old friends. I now believe that there are no more natural knees, shoulders, or hips in existence in the bodies of anyone over 60.

Dang sorry to hear that about your health. It also sounds like there is potentially really an honesty issue with the recruit. Maybe it’ll work out. Teens are often immature.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
Why wouldn’t a recruit shop an offer? They could be doing it for a few good reasons. First, they may want to flesh out whether Texas’ offer is truly best and final, in the hopes of having Texas move up. Second, they want to see how much more they could make elsewhere. That then allows them to make an informed decision. Even if a recruit is locked in to Texas, it makes sense to still do a check on the market. Poster’s angst is stupid, unless the recruit is lying to Texas.

How in the hell has the Netflix show Tires not been brought up in this thread. It’s a very refreshing funny show. It’s stupid humor but funny.

Texas A&M Recruiting 2026: The World's Drunkest Elk
Holy shit this is a great post. Every year I have some vague notion that surely A&M has to be good, and then posts like this insert reality into my brain. Amazing.

The other thing about Mike Leach that some forget is the fact he installed the offense at OU that won the national champsionship for them in 2000 under Mangino as OC, and led to their Big 12 success for so many years.

All Encompassing Investment and Financial Planning Thread for the Surly 99.5%
Bump. Still trying to find a financial advisor that is highly competent in tax optimization during retirement using Roth conversions and optimized spending plans, taking into account IMRAA, net investment tax, Roth seasoning rules, etc. Most of the advisors I've been exposed to either operate only under an all-inclusive AUM fee for total financial planning (which we don't need today; maybe down the line yes), or are not particularly sharp enough to really understand the complexities of the tax planning.

Based on imammac’s posts there’s a decent chance he’s banging his HR person.

I dated a co-worker. We just celebrated our 36th wedding anniversary, she’s hot as hell, has a heart of gold, and I out kicked my coverage by about three counties. It can work.

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
A hypothetical. If Elon’s creation of the American Party were to cause the Republicans to lose the Presidency in 3.5 years to either a Democrat or American Party candidate (you won’t know until Election Day) would you contribute to and support the American Party?

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen
I always used to feel that the recruit ranking services had a state of Texas bias and maybe to a small extent a UT bias, solely because of the location of some of the early creators of these services. However, if you look at the talent Texas is pulling in these days from other states, it seems like they really are getting the “better” 4 and 5 star players, as opposed to those who were rated 4 or 5 stars but had some questions about them. Herman’s 3rd ranked class was full of pretenders.
