    My hmmm was I kinda thought so too.

    Yeah. Sorry. Quoted wrong post. Someone just posted UW vs WSU stats recently and PK really shut Leach down to the tune of WSU only averaging in the teens when they played against PK's defense.

    ask any aggy if they'll still chant SEC now? Not one of my aggy friends have answered, they seriously don't know what to do. lol

    Maybe they’ll stop calling other SEC schools their “brethren.”

    “Rue the day? Who talks like that?”

    Counterpoint: UH is a commuter school. If anyone thought they could bring the Houston TV market, then they would have been asked to join a conference a long time ago. 

    Sure. I understand that. But three potential is there for UH, especially with rich motivated alum.

    Maybe I’m being naive, but having a big alumni base means you only need a few years and/or flashy stars and those alumni will convert from or add to their fandom. 

    Now with NIL, Fertitta can go big on a few star players to try to drum up excitement.

    How is that?

    Seems like everyone is talking about picking over the carcass of the Big 12. If the PAC wants to expand into the TX market, then they're not going to take Baylor and might not take TCU, if not because of their loose religious affiliation, just because they're too small to be useful. UH is the next best TX market school to take. They're large, they're in a major metro and they were sort of on the verge of continued relevance when we stole MENSA from them. Without UT blocking their entry into our conference, they stand to be one of the more attractive expansion candidates it seems.

    My wife loves those shows. I watch because she watches but find it less entertaining than RH.  I’d prob watch RH OC and BH even if wife didn’t. No way I’d watch Million Dollar Listing. It’s ok but real estate carries no interest for me. 

    That title didn’t age well. A million dollar listing in LA is now a 1/1 condo that needs kitchen and bath renovations.

    Only just started it. Leblanc appears to have eaten one of Joey’s sisters. That said, he’s still funny and someone I could see grabbing a beer with. He’s the only one of that cast that just comes across like a normal person.

     

    A friend of mine cooked for his family out at his ranch a good bit. He said Leblanc is totally down to earth and normal. He wrenches in his dirt bikes and fixes shit around the house.

    Yeah, she looks like a different person, and not in a good way. On a positive note, your avatar has a nice rack. Well done.

    I have to respect her though because she was in a short-lived NBC sitcom set in LA called “It’s like, you know”. She played herself and the running gag was that nobody recognized her since she got her nose job and she couldn’t find work as an actress anymore.

    Someone write me a Superman movie 3rd act where he's fighting the antagonist in a compelling battle, but without massive property damage or kryptonite.

    I don't think it's possible.

    I think they did it well in the original Superman movies when he battled Zod. Unlike the current one, Superman is "weaker" than Zod because he is trying to save the humans who would be collatoral damage from their fight. It did set up a tension that had real consequences.

    so I get they needed to let him go, but they did a really shitty job of making it visually obvious he just had a massive stroke.... I saw the brain pic in the small screen showing 3 beeping regions- but I really thought he was somehow scanning Naomi's mind after all that shit and had gone quiet because he saw that she was about to die.  Its not until a min later when they have to flat out tell us hes had a stroke and dead.  I am not even sure if we were seeing Alex after he had died... or as he was dying and he recognized he was about to die because of the massive brain bleeds

    That reeked of a bad rewrite for whatever the fuck they had planned

    thats a show spoiler question

    Spoiler

    If you watch the scene where they froze him on the Razorback you can see little droplets of CGI blood floating away from his mouth and nose. I agree though that it was too subtle. I understand they had to get rid of him but even the way they did it, they could have made it more explicit.

    I'm just glad my Dad isn't alive anymore. That sounds harsh, but knowing him and FOX News brainwashing, he would be far gone into the conspiracy shit. It's heartbreaking.

    My dad was pretty far gone for a while. They had some glitch in their cable service so he started watching only news he could find in YouTube. I don’t know if it was because his iPad is a hand me down from me or some other weird event but the algorithm took him down an Anti-Trump path. My brother says he saw him watching multiple Daily Show clips mocking Trump and laughing along with them.

    Maybe there social media algorithms worked in my favor this time. Pretty scary shit. My dad isn’t some uneducated rube either. He had a PhD in Physics.
