BOOM MOTHER FUCKER - Will Muschamp's Triumphant Return
I’d also love a commitment to not recruiting linebackers too short to ride all of the coasters at six flags.

BOOM MOTHER FUCKER - Will Muschamp's Triumphant Return
Maybe, but why announce it as a firing? Ready for Burton to give us the scoop that it was a mutual decision in contrast to all evidence saying otherwise.

Holy shit, firing Kwiatkowski can’t possibly be performance related.

Frozen Pizza - Because sometimes is just sounds good.
Unintentionally clicked on a reddit thread the other day discussing it and the consensus seemed to be that it's inferior to a predecessor version...

My favorite IT is when they are happy to die on a hill only to surrender to reality at the last minute…

Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Hell Is Empty, and All the Devils Are Here
Devil's advocate--we think that's true because the $9.95 guys are repeating it, and their source is the coaches... I mean, I get the logic, but our LB and RB depth is pretty thin.

Also, probably the easiest position on the field besides kicker to incorporate someone who is new to the team, I.e., least amount of friction for team to team movement. Probably another chit in the “save your money for 5 stars and the portal” pile as a team building paradigm.

Also some clarity that we are, in fact, looking to entice him into the portal.

Fallout (TV Show) - Amazon prime
Evidently the Long 15 mod that just came out is pretty awesome and would by itself be a good reason for a new play through.

Pastries / Bakery
This topic comes up on the Austin food subreddit on the regular and I'll touch on your suggestions and make a few of my own. Plus I just got back from Paris and like a true Parisian, consider myself an expert and everyone else is wrong. Sweetish Hill--I'm lame and have only been once since the remodel and don't recall it being exceptional in any way besides the how hot the lady customers were Sour Duck--love them, although like @HenryJames I'm constantly confused how you can call yourself a bakery but run out of pastries by 10 am. Kouign Amann is the standout. Central Market--very inconsistent. I've had to return pastries because there was butter chunks (ineffectively creamed) and a lot of times they look better than they taste, particularly out of the cake case. Not a pastry but I do appreciate they offer a $2 baguette when Whole Foods is only stocking $5 versions from easy tiger. Upper Crust--love the morning buns but their parking lot has more helpless drivers than the Arboretum Trader Joes and being closed on Sundays is no bueno. Quacks--always solid, but never better than that. Really their cakes are better than their pastries. Most of their staff is, errrrr....baked. Russells--they don't get enough love, I like them better than Quacks Epicerie--refuse to go out of pique at the subredditors that claim they have better pastries than in New Orleans. Julie Myrtille--overrated and expensive, I don't know how you can charge $6 for a chocolate croissant that's 2 euros in Paris. I guess great for them if they can get it, but it feels like a Disneyland version of a patisserie designed to remove money from indiscriminate Gen Z. Heaven's Bistro--for my money the most under-sung hole in the wall bakery in Austin, and the best almond croissant.

Directors with the most range
Danny Boyle is probably my first suggestion, as well. He’s all over the place and always interesting. Deep cut for my cineastes, but Takashi Miike. Ron Howard is someone else, too, that doesn’t really have a personal visual style and is willing to play in lots of different sandboxes.

Bear in mind he’s still growing, but he’s the TyAnthony Smith replacement, not a thumper in the middle. Maybe they will move Smith inside now that he’s had three years of strength and weight gains. Hill, by comparison, had an NFL body and measurables as a freshman.

Listening to them, as well. One read on it is Sark is willing to lose someone graded as “satisfactory” perhaps over money. If true, it’s an interesting show of self-discipline. It could also be more of a “you’re not guaranteed a spot next year because we were looking for an A Hill replacement and got more interest than we expected”, bear in mind this is all conjecture.

Do I get to start the James Talarico thread?
Happy to eat my words on this if I’m wrong because I haven’t taken a look at the redrawn map in Dallas, but I doubt the GOP drew a map that a) would be intentional about flipping a black majority electorate district into a district more attainable by a Republican or b) look at Crockett in particular as someone they might want to get rid of. I don’t think she’s high profile enough for the latter and more useful as a DPT boogeyman (errr..woman) to help rile up their base.

Do I get to start the James Talarico thread?
It was posted either here or on the Crockett thread previously, and personally it’s pretty low on my personal GOP infuriation index. If Talarico can’t beat Crockett in a primary he’s not getting past Paxton and same for her.

You jest, but it takes a special talent to craft stories about fathers, sons and the hazards of youth in fifteen different films and not tell exactly the same story thrice.

Am I to understand you hold them in a higher esteem now that you've been inside the fishbowl? Because I don't think the dominant perception here is they possess any particular acumen besides a high tolerance for flattering idiot teenagers in exchange for access.

2025 Celebrity Death Pool
Little known fact but when Bobby Burton had a meeting with a plastic surgeon a few years ago and was asked what he had in mind, Burton handed over a headshot of Dave Ward and sat silent (actually he said “this is a shout out to Tito’s Vodka and the Loewy Law Firm”)

2025 Texas Coaching/Support Staff Thread
1. It’s more reactionary to losing Terry Joseph and not being able to make more hay recruiting in South Louisiana despite LSU starting with a dead man walking head coach and then firing him. 2. The long term problem is the line, not the RB talent (probably). We had several years under Sark where this was the strength of the team.

Emma Stone gets all the attention for her risk taking and Margot Robbie for selling tickets, but I think Dunst is the most versatile actress (hell, maybe performer) working in film.

He was so incensed at the temerity of a question about Akina on the podcast yesterday that I'm convinced he owes Akina money.

Jasmine Crockett (Texas Representative)
That's a big part of the requirement of being a passable alternative. You think CNN, NY Times, WaPo, etc., take satisfaction from publishing/broadcasting stories about Trump ALL of the time? He's outrageous and funny and dumb and excites their readers and those that claim to ignore them in equal measure. They're compelled because he makes the story about himself and sucks all of the oxygen away from everything else. I used to think his barnstorming tour and the MAGA spectacle was a horrible waste of campaign time and energy but he's ably used it now for a decade to figure out what appeals to the crowd in the coliseum. The right leaning media bubble is just as easily co-optable if the Democrat candidates can be similarly attuned and be interesting.
