  1. Even with Card starting, I hope we come out aggressive and throw the ball. Tech is gonna sell out on the run and we have to make them pay.
  2. I think our program is headed in the right direction. But if Ewers is still out, not sure how people can be too confident about the Tech game. We have not played on the road yet this year. We won exactly one road game all of last year. Ewers makes the Sark offense fully operational. Card has guts, but is a significant drop off.
  3. I know it's lame and cliched, but all that matters this week is how we play. If the offensive/defensive lines keep progressing and the defense stays disciplined, we will win. And maybe win easily. I expect the crowd/atmosphere to be pretty damn good after last week. This is not a trap game. We are 6-8 under Sark so far. We lost last week. Every talking ahead is mentioning an upset alert. It feels like the team is anxious to get out there and fuck shit up.
  4. I’m probably reading too much into it, but I was pleased to see Sarkisian a little more ornery today during the PC. He’s pissed we lost, he’s encouraged by the effort, but time to start imposing our will for the rest of the year. He knows that was a step forward, but he’s not smelling the roses or feeling too happy about it. Let’s go.
  5. If they rest Bijan, it would be nice to see Jonathon Brooks gets some early action in this game. Would like to see what he can do with the 1s
  6. Nightmare fuel everywhere. What the fuck. That photo smells like hairspray and hot dogs.
  7. I sold Bill O'Brien a home when he got the Texans job. He was kind enough to shoot the shit with me for about an hour talking football. He asked me who I thought they should take with the #1 pick in the draft...I can't remember who I mentioned.. But he asked what I thought about Manziel. I told him I went to Texas and I though Manziel would suck shit in the NFL. He paused and with a slight grin said, "I really like him". Anyone that fucking stupid calling plays for Alabama is a boon for us. Fuck Alabama.
  8. In general, Ewers looked very comfortable out there outside of the first series. Nice contrast to Card shitting his pants on every drop back. All I ask is we leave the Alabama game healthy. Whether we keep it close or lose by 50, we should be fine in conference play if we don’t have major injuries.
  9. Maybe the shitty reports from 9.95ers means we’ll actually be good this year
  10. Can’t wait to find out the real story here.
  11. I've been drinking a lot of lower proof stuff as I ease back into my stash, and Eagle Rare at retail price is one of the best bottles around. 10 year Buffalo Trace for 30ish bucks? Fucking delicious. EDIT: BigDHornfan, I did not see your post above before I described ER as "fucking delicious". I guess that's just what we say with good bourbon. Cheers.
  12. If Kirkland is going to OU and drumming up this stuff just to stick it to Texas, fuck him. Dude will be a bust and good riddance. If Kirkland goes to Texas, what a wonderful, heartwarming way to fuck with everyone else. Future HOFer and upstanding citizen. I did that right, right?
  13. The whole discourse is so fucking stupid. If Arch wasn't a Manning he'd be a 3 star? Cool story, bro. If Giannis was 6'1" he'd be coming off the bench. Both questions live in fantasy land and are pointless. His last name fucking matters. If you come from a family of elite QBs you have an edge on the competition. What's between the ears is what really elevates QB play...playbook knowledge, anticipation, pocket presence, reading/setting up defenses, maturity, professionalism etc. He's been taught this shit by his whole family since the day he picked up a football in diapers. It's all a guessing game in the end. Betting on Manning is a smart play.
  14. I understand why we focus on the lives lost in a situation like Uvalde, but I wish there was more discussion about the children and teachers who survived and how this affects the rest of their lives. Many will have PTSD, depression, anxiety. What affects them could possibly affect their future children. GOP wants to talk about mental health? OK, let's fucking talk about mental health. These mass shootings are causing hundreds of thousands of people to deal with trauma that doesn't ever need to happen. There will be generational issues for the people who LIVED. Fuck this world.
  15. Just got a text from a close friend. His father-in-law is from Uvalde. FIL has a friend who is a Ranger that served in Iraq...he said this was the bloodiest thing he's ever seen. Fuck.
  16. Rare Breed Rye is on the shelf everyday at Total Wines I visit in Houston. 59.99 I think.
  17. We are in the early, experimental stages of NIL and these players are taking advantage. Good for them. The upcoming seasons will determine if these big money guys were actually worth it. Rates/payments will be adjusted accordingly. Some people need to calm down.
