  1. Math is hard. Only approx 10% of us descend into true chemical dependency. Many of the OD deaths are what AAs call “amateurs”. Many of my AA friends have amazing stories of surviving overdoses. And then, after a moment of clarity, go back out and continue their drug seeking. It’s complicated. But simply selling purer, cheaper drugs is not the answer. Drug addiction (and alcoholism IS drug addiction) is a combination of soul slavery and slow suicide. I’ve attended too many funerals. Easier availability is not the solution some would have us believe.
  2. I guess you missed the part about treatment! It’s a Football board so let’s use this analogy. Three phases of the game. Offense, defense and special teams. You’re simplified and archaic interpretation is simple and wrong. War on Drugs as become a catchphrase joke. However, I DO believe in a War on Addiction. Much like turning around a decade of slide in the Longhorn football program, it will take talent, willpower and positive intentionality. And then it still has to be repeated after year. Rust never sleeps. Neither does addiction. Treatment with compassion is of paramount importance. Corruption has ruined incarceration and enforcement phases. As it does most government programs. War on Drugs will never be effective. People are the problem and people are the solution.
  3. Peace to you shooter. Don’t give up. Some things take multiple tries at finding solutions.
  4. I believe sir, you are in error. San Francisco is not a laboratory of success in the drug field. Needle exchanges have been touted by politicians in Vancouver, Seattle and Portland. Drug overdoses still kill regularly. It’s simple, but difficult. Stop the suppliers, treat the addicts, incarcerate the incorrigibles (i. e. dealers). Triangle defense. All three, not one or two. Education is necessary, but YouTube et al is poisonous. This shit (addiction) kills more of our people than all our military losses. Ever. Do the math. Lives worth fighting for. Go Horns.
  5. You’re confusing the words “we” and “he”. We have a problem with our current players paying all the way to the finish. He probably cannot “fix that” as fast as some of you are demanding. Surly on! 🤘
  6. (sarcasm alert) yeah sure. Like the kids always carry AIDS and other STD test kits when they go to a party/orgy. Discerning drug users will be sure not to put “dirty drugs” in their bodies. Test strips. Very sensible. But drug use isn’t sensible. It’s about changing how you feel …right now! Immediate gratification is the disease of America.
  7. Pushback against China for manufacturing. Close the border. Persuade the culture that “getting high” means one thing to some folks, and sudden death to others. This didn’t happen overnight or in a vacuum. Those who want peace in the world should start with finding peace personally. Then with others.
  8. So. The common denominator would be existing ut football players from last three years. I don’t think pk missed all hose tackle himself.
  9. This. See Michael Jordan’s interview with Stroh Curry at the Ryder Cup 2 weeks ago. It was the exact same sentiment. Ballers!🤘😎
  10. Disagree! Cook was lost multiple times today. And he totally screwed up his one redeeming play by getting him (and his posse) flagged for “excessive celebration”? Whiskey tango boys! Act like you’ve made a big play before. Act like champions. It’s tcu. Damn.
  11. Never hit REPLY after typing during watching the game. Spell check is not our friend. My cerebrum is intact but my angry bird brain is steaming. Stupid Mountaineer coach costing them this game they could easily win. I suffer PTSD from watching Texas coaches last 10 years.
  12. Pretty simple. WV coach has backup QB drive 17 play, 75 yard, 9 minute drive fir TD. Then goes turtle Tom because “it’s Doeges dream game !,, wtf. ou sucks Rett boy, wv defense is balling and Coach “Herman” shows up to coach would to a freaking loss on national tv! Both teams suck. We play our game we may win B12 and more. fou. Doege will be why wv loses. Blame the turtle guy of their coach. Damn.
  13. Actually think it was respect. Rice coach knew Sark tapped the brakes (I know 😳)on our last drive near the goaline. We coulda laid 65 on em. Showing respect he didn’t kick field goal to avoid shutout. Great game for all except 1st half oline. Hook em.
  14. Card is clearly #2. We need both. They make each other better. It’s not mutually exclusive.
  15. So. That one play was why the Oline played shitty all night? At what point did they get pissed and push some Pigs face in?
  16. The long gains on this sheet is shocking. By ANY set of backs. F
  17. If he believes that, he should $200 to win the B12CCG and be done with it . If they can’t win 8 games, what is likelihood of even making the CCG? I’d rather read Larry the Cable Guy’s gambling tips.
