  1. NSFW, obviously.
  2. I just hope that efforts like today aren't burying Pogocar's chances against Vingo in the tour. Only 10 riders have won the Giro and the Tour, the last being Pantani 26 years ago. I'd really like to see a Tour that goes down to the wire.
  3. AI will be the death of us all.
  4. There is a ghost town in the Texas Panhandle named Glenrio, Texas. It's on the old Route 66, right where Texas and New Mexico meet. If you look at this photo, Texas ends and New Mexico begins where the pavement changes color. It's pretty desolate there. But that white building, the only structure? That's the Glenrio smoeke shop in New Mexico. You can legally buy all the marijuana, gummies etc ... that you want right there, within about 150 yards of Texas. Texas is so dumb.
  5. Yep. If Moore and Ffrench want to build their brands, what better place to do it than the most valuable brand in college football?
  6. Not that I ever really did understand, but I am at a loss as to what's happened or what's happening. I have no frame of reference. I'm like a child who wanders into a movie ... It appears there are a bunch of new longhorn-related recruiting podcasts or YouTube shows or whatever you want to call them and the audience has been so fractured that, among other things, this recruiting board is dying.
  7. Man, Julian Alaphilippe just hammered Mirco Maestri with about 12 kilometers left, didn't he? As soon as I saw Julian go and Maestri toss that water bottle I said "it's over." Maestri is just too big to stay with Alaphilippe on steep hill like that one.
  8. Can confirm: Louis Mueller's still kicks ass. Was barely able to waddle out.
  9. I just watched the documentary "Chop and Steele" on Tubi. I know, I know ... commercials suck but one of my friends told me about it and said it was one of the funniest movies he's ever seen and Tubi is the only place to watch it right now. Holy cow there were moments when I was roaring, I mean on the verge of peeing my pants, with laughter. I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe and thought I might crack a rib. It's about two guys who've made a life of pranking people and who invent a strongman act that is absolute nonsense, then get morning shows on TV stations across America to invite them on to demonstrate their act. My Lord the results are spectacular. They end up getting sued by a media conglomerate. I won't tell you how the lawsuit ends or what happens when they actually make it to America's Got Talent but it's surreal and meta and it slams hard. Directed by Austin's Ben Steinhauer, who directed Winnebago Man if you've ever seen that. Anyway, it's got a 100% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes. My favorite review is the NPR critic who says "Hysterically funny, wonderful, and really terrible." https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/chop_and_steele/reviews

  10. And in so many cases it's men preaching to women about what women should find fulfilling or should want.
  11. This is just dumb. By this definition, the Pilgrims were quitters. They could have stayed in England but they were dissatisfied with their situation in their current country so they just quit. And Willie Nelson? A quitter. He was dissatisfied with his situation in Nashville so he just quit and moved to Austin. And guess what? He ended up winning. Platitudes like "quitters never win and winners never quit" are disproved by history, which is filled with examples of people who "quit" one thing/place and ended up winning somewhere else.
  12. Isn't Brew the one who was supposed to announce to Ohio State a few months ago because he lived in Ohio for some time? Maybe I'm getting my wires crossed. Looking at that video of his dad in the Olympics, he was a pretty big guy for a 400 meter runner.
  13. The most recent drought monitor map.
  14. Hopefully, our receivers feast on that inexperienced secondary
  15. I'm sure like most people his age, Arch only listens to his parents, and only the parts he wants to hear. Next up on the list would be grandparents, but I doubt the uncles are hitting him up on the regular...and like you said there are no mafia style family meetings. I dunno ... if my uncle was Peyton Manning I'd probably listen to what he has to say.
