  1. Those are almost as bad as the gator skined uni's Florida threw out a few years ago.

     

    Almost.

     

    And that's coming from a UF alum who lives in TN and DESPISES the Vols.

    I mean, they’re gonna get sued, right? Isn’t the Adams family a bunch of cunts?

    Surely not, because the public backlash if they did would be BRUTAL.  You think their reputation in Houston is bad now, how much worse would it get if they sued over this?  National sports media would eviscerate them.

    Brat, just go to the greasiest Tex-mex place you can find. That ought to clear things up. You may need to leave the Austin metro to have it happen for you. Mana’s in the Barrio in San Marcos always worked for me. I usually had to shit before I crossed the railroad tracks.

    This reminds me, when I was in undergrad at UNT (circa 1990), went with the UNT mens BKB team to a hole in the wall BBQ place in a rough part of Austin that had celebrity autographs on paper plates all over the walls.  BBQ with their hot BBQ sauce ripped me a new one the morning after, multiple rounds.  Another suggestion for Brat if anyone knows the name of the place and if it's still there!

    Mrs. Brat likes to work puzzles on her Kindle Fire tablet. 
    She was pleased to find one with an Austin scene, and also because our son’s bank office building is in the background…

    I seem to recall a picture very similar to this on the Texas highway maps you got at rest areas back in the day (70's or 80's), yes?

  6. Wife (no pics) and I went to the second Nashville show of George Strait/Chris Stapleton/Little Big Town at Nissan Stadium.  Show was cut short by storms.  George did 33 songs the night before, only 14 on our night.  Not a country music fan, but have always appreciated George and Stapleton is pretty good too.  First time seeing George, disappointed it was cut short.

    My wife has vowed this will be our last attempt at a Summer outdoor concert.  Last year we went to Garth at Nissan Stadium and he never even took the stage before rain and lightning of biblical proportions cancelled the show.  Got our money back on that one.

  7. I think the B12 should go in the opposite direction on GOR restrictions.  Take away the penalty to leave.  The only destination anyone would leave for would be the B1G or the SEC.  If dropping the exit fee meant you could have Oregon and Washington for a decade or more, and the B1G came calling, wish them well and send them on their way.  In the meantime, you added a lot of value to the B12 during the time they were there.  The networks might even sweeten the pot a little on the front end if they knew they could pull teams out later.

    If you want some sort of "repayment" for the lost value from a team leaving, maybe put in the contract that if a team leaves the B12 gets a percentage of future conference payouts from that team's new conference.  B12 needs to think outside the box here.

    Are people in Nashville excited about the throwback?

    Lots of people want them to wear them in Houston.  I'm sure it will never happen, but imagine the butthurt that would cause!

  9. Well, sorry for all the butthurt, but I grew up a Cowboys fan and live in Nashville now, so I can appreciate how spectacular these look without all the angst.  Among the best looking throwback looks out there (TB creamsicle is up there too).

  10. Same email issue here, I got a very early Gmail invite and got my name with nothing extra.  I get random crap all the time.  Once I was getting updates from a daycare center on someone's kid, including pictures.  I didnt' want to have a seat over there, so I went to the trouble to track down the daycare center's phone number and let them know their error.

    For months I have been getting someone's mileage logs from a trucking company.  Tried multiple times to get them to wise up, but no luck.  I just ignore those now.
