  1. Played Princeville in Hawaii with FIL and uncles. Lost 21 balls due to the high winds and my general shitty golf skills. Apologized to my playing partners and vowed to play much better on day 2. The next day I lost 22 balls.

  2. Sad news. While I’m a Longhorn, my dad went to Kansas and played basketball there as a freshman. If he were alive today he would be ashamed. It sad to see so many people cheat to achieve goals. The 14 straight Big 12 titles was a great story...but it’s not anymore. Eff ‘em.

  3. With the events yesterday, I’m struggling to figure out the real state of the investigation. I don’t share the viewpoint that today Trump is cooked. It seems like he’s done a great job of avoiding getting his hands dirty, with people all around him doing the things that can draw charges.

    If so, then Mueller is playing his last potential card to get Trump - hope that Manafort, Flynn, Cohen, etc. all tell the same story that brings down Trump. Without multiple corroborated testimonies, there won’t be clear enough evidence of guilt. Trump will skate.

  4. Herman has praised Warehime's recruiting abilities. 
    I don't think Mehringer has a redeeming quality. I get the feeling he's an ass kisser and knows how to navigate staff politics. We've all worked with somebody like this and marveled at how they've kept their jobs for so long. 

    Sometimes really smart people don’t hire great talent because they think they have all the answers and just need warm bodies to execute their plans. Hope that isn’t the case here. Obviously Orlando is an incredible hire.
  5. Haha, a friend of mine is the owner/publisher of a USC recruiting sight...he missed on only one recruit he had projected to USC, a kid who was undecided till the morning of signing day.  It's posted on his site, Levi Jones told him Texas was where De'Gabriel was going to comitt to a month ago.
    Don't believe me? My twitter account is under the same name, and I promote his site.  Scott is really connected to California recruits.

    I’m intrigued. In multiple ways.
  6. The wife pointed out that the Rangers play the Astros today. I said (mistakenly) that i wasn’t sure whether Opening Day had occurred yet. She was quiet for a minute, then said “so they’re just having a little get together?” Yes ladies and gentlemen, Spring Training is now called “a little get together”.

     

    Edit-of course I also can’t believe I didn’t realize the regular season ha started. That’s how far baseball has slipped on my priority list.

  7. I highly recommend everyone adopt the delusional unwarranted mindset that I am applying to the b-ball team for next year - Texas will be great and make the sweet sixteen. That way you don’t have to face reality for a whole off-season. Works well for all sports, in fact.
