  1. How in the hell can this team look this bad and still be within 3?
  2. He’s the only player on this roster worth having once Dosu leaves. Or, Terry is not developing. Not sure which.
  3. Well who assembled this team? None of the transfers have lived up to the billing, at all.
  4. At some point you have to wonder whether we just have a roster of terrible players. I think Disu has so much on his back because everyone else pretty much sucks.
  5. While I fully expect Texas to be down by 18 with 5 minutes left, if they are somehow within 4, I will guarantee a Texas win. Terry will let ‘em loose. And Barnes will pucker up.
  6. I don’t know anything about her because any minute spent on non-Texas women’s basketball sucks the life force out of me. Why is she supposedly such a pos?
  7. Obviously every person in this thread wants Texas to win and for Terry to be successful. The pro-Terry crowd believes every criticism levied is an indication that the poster wants Terry gone. The anti-Terry crowd believes the pro-Terry crowd views Terry thru rose colored glasses. Both views are bs. It is all just typical message board fluff that has been repeated over and over since the beginning of time. You should see Jesus’ posts in the cloak rooms of 050 AD.
  8. Pffft. She never climbed Mt Everest. She was only six.
  9. At this point, Terry is not on the hot seat this year or next year. It would be the end of the 2026 season when something would happen, and that would ONLY be the case if he has a bad next two years with more lost recruits. He has plenty of time.
  10. Man I miss rep comments in three ways. First it was so therapeutic to unload on someone. Second, it was great getting comments. Third, it was hilarious when people would post the comments they got. There are some hilarious people on this site and their comments are gold.
  11. Is there a scenario where the Dems get control of the house before November and can pass real legislation? Or will committee leadership somehow thwart that? Or would committees get new leaders?
  12. Did they say she’s already started chemo? She might be wearing a wig in that video if so, although it does usually take awhile to lose the hair.
  13. It’s great that Texas won, but let’s not ignore the fact that Colorado State shot like crap most of the game, a bit of it due to good defense but mostly just missing shots. In addition, it was glaringly obvious that Texas was more talented, despite also shooting like crap for parts of the game. It was a very ugly game and Texas was fortunate Colorado played so poorly. I expect the Tennessee game to go very poorly. But if it doesn’t, that will certainly be a positive data point regarding Terry.
  14. Ok RT go out and beat Barnes and turn this thread into explosive diarrhea.
  15. Jesus their guy in the paint is just plowing into Texas with offensive fouls and they aren’t calling it.
  16. WTF is Disu doing taking so many 3’s. And why does Horton play so much?
  17. Texas is physically way more talented and they still look like ass.
  18. On the ASR thing, I live far up in Northwest Austin/Leander and people all over are dealing with this. It sounds badddd.
  19. I have a very strong opinion on why Barnes teams underachieved in the tournament quite a bit. If you go back and look at the last five minutes of close games, he tended to slow his team down on offense, put it in the hands of a few guys, and try to carefully eek out a win. The problem with that approach is that you end up with close games and don’t take advantage of your player’s natural athletic abilities that are better than the opponent. Compare that to Terry during last year’s tournament. He let his players loose. Even Shaka would let players loose which is why they would occasionally catch fire and upset North Carolina or Kansas. If Barnes wouldn’t have had his teams playing so tight down the stretch I think they would have gone deeper in most tournaments. I have no idea if his Tennessee teams are different. I don’t watch them.
  20. I guess we could do that, but because there is timed entry to the park, I was thinking we’d want to keep coming back to an area in the park in between hikes. Otherwise, it would really be difficult to come back to during the day because you can’t leave and re-enter the park easily. It would be a pain, or maybe not even possible.
  21. As I’ve mentioned on here before, I got a real estate license six years ago because I was sick of incompetent lazy realtors. I now do work for my own deals, and do several deals per year for friends and family. They like having someone who used to run companies represent them. There are a few critical elements to being a good agent, and 90% of them out there just don’t have the experience, skills, or makeup to do the job well. I’ve been shocked at the incompetence I’ve found. I’m in the middle of a deal, and the other realtor had a $3000 exposure for their client that I’m sure the client wasn’t even aware they had. And this was a client that had to scrape for every dollar to get the down payment. This agreement will have a substantial effect on the industry. It will provide more power to push commissions down. As Gil mentioned, 6% is often high unless you are selling a very low priced house, like $300-400k or less. What amazes me is that $1M-$2M homes are getting sold under 6% commissions. That’s ridiculous imo.
  22. That’s true. But there is also a fundamental culture difference between (most of) the Japanese car companies and the rest of the world. Mazda, Honda, Toyota, and Subaru have implemented the world renowned Toyota quality system, and ingrained it into the culture. They are large enough to get the advantage of that quality system. I worked in one of the largest non-auto maker companies that implemented the Toyota quality system and it really does make a big difference. It was interesting to see a non Japanese person take over Nissan and basically run their quality into the ground.
