  1. It's the job of the state to be cultivating candidates. They should understand that the DNC is not their friend in this regard. I know you weren't making that claim, but that's hardly a model I'd be eager to mimic. Johnson is done when his term is up and he's going to be useful only as a Fox News contributor blaming the Democrats for everything.
  2. Oh, all the $9.95 and radio guys monitor this website and it's predecessors for content. The grind for it is never ending and no one is creative enough to self-generate day after day.
  3. I’ve read too many draft previews and I think I’m switching my preference from Sheppard to Castle. Castle can put pressure on Green to get more efficient, be his replacement, or maybe spend a little time at point in a big lineup. Sheppard is a better fit with this particular incarnation of the Rockets, but he’ll need to get a lot better on defense to be a starter for Ime and I don’t think the Rockets want to build a team that hides a defensive liability in search of offense. They’d prefer to sacrifice offense for defensive soundness. That said, man, 40% from 3 taking 5-6 shots per game would be really nice…
  4. I wouldn’t worry about that, his problem is no one is paying attention to his ads, regardless of message.
  5. At least personally, I’ve never had the patience to drink them so slowly the ice actually melted all that much.
  6. I know this isn’t the case, because CDC isn’t malicious and chaos isn’t befitting The University, but I have to admire the sequence of events that will ruin today for Aggies everywhere, regardless of the outcome this evening.
  7. This-it was inevitable it was going Dem, Allred was right place, right time (which can be a skill, quite frankly).
  8. Counterpoint(s)-I doubt he gets to $50m and also I bet he’s not all that attractive to sideline donations, I.e., his donors are contributing elsewhere already. A dollar saved doesn’t necessarily mean it would be going to a more winnable campaign.
  9. It’s also probably worth repeating (yet again), that these sacrificial lambs are a byproduct of absolutely terrible state party leadership. There is no one telling Allred, “hey man, you’re doing great work in Texas 32nd and we’re going to flip the house and give you the opportunity for a plum committee leadership position. Let’s let you simmer a bit more and then run for something state.” He’s only 41 and clearly lacks the personal charisma to draw in voters. It need not be a career killer, however, if he’s continuing to build his resume and acquire chits for a future campaign. Who knows, maybe there was a deal made and the Biden campaign told him “you’re probably going to lose but we’ll get you a good role in the admin to run off for something in the future.”
  10. I like to imagine it was at the first annual Barking Carnival retreat; @closetojumping was already getting irritated by Scipio's "anything goes" philosophy in search of web traffic and then this nobody who works in a Pasadena oil supply parts shop and has like four different handles has the temerity to suggest that Pancho's, of all places, has the best enchiladas.
  11. I bet Bobby can defend himself (and considering he looked like he was 40 when he was 20, I bet he's pretty thick skinned). Maybe we think he's overrated because Nahlin loves him, not out of affection for @closetojumping? CTJ will deny it but I have a feeling some of his distaste is because of his East Houston blood vendetta against Nahlin.
  12. He’s not on the dl, right?
  13. Pretty compelling comments on Keelon.
  14. After only taking one LB last year I hope we get all the Polys AND Pettijohn.
  15. Espada=Charlie Strong
  16. Fuck it, let’s DFA Montero, too. Clean break with GM Crane.
  17. And made the CF look bad, win-win
  18. Good, pour it on
  19. I don’t know what else Loperfido needs to do to take at bats away from Chas.
  20. Haha, @Wulaw Horn will be talking shit now!
  21. It just occurred to me that the Orioles might someday be the answer to the question “what if Luhnow wasn’t fired?”
  22. He and cabbage were hacking. So was Myers last inning but after that catch he gets a pass.
  23. I’ve had Graveman‘s surgery. Maybe he meant September of 2025.
  24. My question was somewhat rhetorical in nature; what I mean is that there really isn't any other option. I'm sure a good bit of the foot dragging on AISD's part is because the families with means will scream the loudest and the families without tend to be minorities and there's just no winning. One consequence may be that parents find there are public charter schools more proximate and that results in head count loss.
