    Joe Ely is great. That band with Jesse “Guitar” Taylor, Ponty Bone, and the Dixie Chick dad was one of the best live bands I’ve seen.

    Yep. I'm not big fan of many live albums, but "Live Shots" is a masterpiece. I asked Taylor if touring with The Clash was as much fun as I think it was, and he responded, "It was even more fun." RIP, Taylor.

    I'm not upset with him at all, I love him.  It's just the forecast is pretty consistent across all platforms.  I realize they put a lot of planning into it, it's also the final hurrah for the UT Club.  I just think it'd be wise to make a judgement call one way or the other by tomorrow so families can plan accordingly.  Regular season games cannot be moved.  But two facts remain---we can hold the Spring Game whenever the fuck we want.  And they absolutely 100% cannot play in lightning.  I didn't invent those two facts, neither did CDC.  We're just cuttin' close is all. 

    So you're upset that they haven't done something now that you think they should do tomorrow?

    2103 against TCU. Equally dark days.

    I think Taysom is still out there with two knee braces hurdling Longhorn DB's.

    Obviously I meant 2013. But still too soon to bring that up.

    What's important is that the team has chicken fingers to munch on during any rain delays.

    Too soon, much too soon.

    '16 was only 1 half and was a bad omen to start the season (not that Chuck needed any help.) Shit sucked all the way around. Only bright spot, which later proved to be wish casting, was Shane's deep ball. 

    I thought it was pizza? Chicken fingers wouldn't have been nearly as infuriating but not sure it would've mattered. Roach was MLB for Christ's sake...

    Up to 60% with likely thunderstorms during peak heat of the day.  As in, kickoff time.  There a lots of Spring Games happening the following weekend.  I know it's done to culminate the maximum number of permitted spring practices by NCAA, but then, lightning is also a serious NCAA concern.  They may have to think about Sunday or the following weekend.  I mean, it's one thing to play through some rain and they can open up covered areas from which fans can still enjoy the game and probably buy more concessions.  But they have to stop for a certain period of time if the lightning is within a certain radius.  I doubt they'll make a ruling until Thursday or Friday, but it'd be a massive cash burn to staff/stock the stadium and have all those families shuffle down there just to tell them to go wait in the courses for 45 minutes, and then another 45 minutes, and then another one just to call the game off.  A lot can change obviously but it's starting to look not great for anything resembling a 2:00p kickoff and thousands of families and hundreds of staff are already making their plans.  Kind of a pickle.

    No, July 1 I think. They may intend to follow SEC rules though. 

    I don't think we can grab portal players from SEC teams and play them in '24, that's the most important thing. Having said that, not sure if CDC just verbally agreed to that with SEC brass or if we're actually considered full SEC for football once the season ended. Since we used SEC patches on the uni's for recruit visits, I suspect the latter.

    Well, we know how verbal agreements go with the SEC.
