It’s nice to see they’ve made so much progress since I originally posted this 3 years ago.

It bottles the mind that someone who isn’t going to the game would decide to go to the state fair during TX/OU. Who thinks, “You know what would be fun? Being in the worlds biggest clusterfuck and waiting in line for an hour to eat some deep fried shit while it’s 95 degrees outside. And let’s bring the newborn while we’re at it!” It’s like Darwins fucking waiting room around there. I used to love the fair back in the day. Now it’s a serious burden. I dread trying to navigate it. Getting into the stadium is a nightmare. It’s like they purposely set it up to be as big of a choke point as possible. Maybe it gets better when the reno is done but they just seem so incompetent at everything.

PK getting too much credit here. Fat Gare is the real genius behind the defense.

Game Week Thread Game week thread, Week 6, Red River Shootout
Mitch Cumsteen replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
Each TX/OU game is completely its own animal. Below are the 8 games this century that had double digit point spreads. Twice Texas has won outright (in bold) as a dog and covered four more times. That's 6/8 for those of you keeping score at home. This game is generally played closer than what is expected. I can't see any reason that we don't beat the living piss out of them, but I have seen too much shit go down in that stadium. And fuck this being the first time in almost 20 years that we are a double digit favorite against those assholes. 2019 -- Oklahoma 34, Texas 27 (point spread: Oklahoma -10.5) 2016 -- Oklahoma 45, Texas 40 (point spread: Oklahoma -13.5) 2015 -- Texas 24, Oklahoma 17 (point spread: Oklahoma -16.5) 2014 -- Oklahoma 31, Texas 26 (point spread: Oklahoma -16.5) 2013 -- Texas 36, Oklahoma 20 (point spread: Oklahoma -13.5) 2011 -- Oklahoma 55, Texas 17 (point spread: Oklahoma -11) 2007 -- Oklahoma 28, Texas 21 (point spread: Oklahoma -12) 2005 -- Texas 45, Oklahoma 12 (point spread: Texas -14) -
San Antonio Spurs 2024-25 - Taking it in the pooper for Cooper
Mitch Cumsteen replied to Mitch Cumsteen's topic in Basketball
He can shot put it out of his asshole for all I care if it goes in the basket, but he went from 25% to 31%. Not exactly Steph Curry territory. That ain't even Malaki Branham territory. And he's wide ass open because nobody is even bothering to go out there and stick a hand in his face. -
San Antonio Spurs 2024-25 - Taking it in the pooper for Cooper
Mitch Cumsteen replied to Mitch Cumsteen's topic in Basketball
Agreed. The last few years guys like he and Keldon have been forced to take on too much. Back in the day, they would have slotted into a nice little complementary role around the Big 3. Instead they've had to be the lead dog and I don't think it's benefitted them at all. Sochan's role needs to be hustle guy, defensive glue guy, instigator, dunker spot, and get garbage points on putbacks. And he needs to bring energy every night. The dream (for me at least) is pink haired Draymond minus the bullshit, but I don't think he has the IQ for it. I didn't see the few 3's that he's launched so far in preseason so I have no idea if his form has gotten any better. But I have little faith in his becoming even a serviceable three point shooter. That sidespin shit is so, so broken. -

And with a worse offensive line. But I do think Hawkins is still better at QB than anything Michigan has trotted out there so far. -

Mitch Cumsteen replied to Mitch Cumsteen's topic in Basketball
Like the frog said, Sochan was better tonight. The game is easier for him in a supporting role maybe? And I’ve seen nothing to dissuade me from my pre-draft opinion that Castle was the best player in the draft. He’s going to be a beast. Impressive how he got to the line tonight. He’s got a real physical presence to him. The three ball looked nice too. If he is even league average from there, look the fuck out. Victor needs to take better care of the ball. I’m okay with a lot of his bad shot selection, but minimizing the careless turnovers would go a long way towards playing winning basketball. -

Mitch Cumsteen replied to Mitch Cumsteen's topic in Basketball
Kermit hit on a part of it with the indecisiveness, but half the time I watch him on both ends and wonder what the hell he is thinking. It doesn't always make basketball sense to me where he goes on the court. Maybe he anticipates poorly? It could be that the failed point guard experiment fucked with him so hard that he's overthinking everything? I dunno. I'll try to watch some tonight and see if I can define it better. -
Game Week Thread Game week thread, Week 6, Red River Shootout
Mitch Cumsteen replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
I was more confident last year going into the RRS than any I can remember. After attending 30+ of these in person, you would think I would know better. As brutal as the QE turnovers were, the defense really shit the bed. Gabriel killed us time and again with his scrambling, Ran for 100+ that day when he only ran for something like 350 yards total the entire season. And then the secondary breakdowns on that last drive were just gut wrenching. So many self-inflicted wounds. This team should have a really bad taste in their mouth from last year. I know I do. -
Game Week Thread Game week thread, Week 6, Red River Shootout
Mitch Cumsteen replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
It's an obvious mismatch on paper. There's a reason for the two touchdown point spread. They are an injury riddled disaster on offense being helmed by a true freshman QB behind a patchwork offensive line. They are beat up in the secondary but have an otherwise pretty formidable defense. We are fucking loaded with the best offensive line we've had in a generation, have a 4th year first round draft pick at QB, and weapons galore at the skill positions. The defense looks as solid as it has been in years. We should mudhole these mouth breathers into bolivian. But that means fuck all in this game. 8 out of the last 9 of these have been one score games, and we've trotted out some of the worst Texas teams in history over that timespan. Trying to apply logic to something that is so inherently illogical as TX/OU is a fool's errand. -

Gotcha. I thought you were talking about aggressive play calling vs. starting a freshman. Point well taken. Regardless, we can all agree that Mack Brown was a huge gaping vagina every second Saturday in October. -

Mitch Cumsteen replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
I dunno about that. That pass was a simple screen to a WR, who then blew past two Sooners who played it about as poorly as they could have. I still have PTSD from Greg Davis starting out the game with three of those that blew up directly in his face. -

San Antonio Spurs 2024-25 - Taking it in the pooper for Cooper
Mitch Cumsteen replied to Mitch Cumsteen's topic in Basketball
I could only stomach the first half and about half of the third quarter. This team still can’t shoot for shit but half the roster thinks they’re Steph Curry. Castle is going to be impactful defensively right off the bat. He is a very smart player. You don’t often see rookies in their first game calling switches and pointing out gaps in the defense. Wesley actually did some good things. You can see the improvement with him. Mamu deserves minutes. He’s one of the few players they have that has a brain. And Barnes did what you expect of a veteran. He’s desperately needed on this team. The rest? Good lord Branham has never met a screen that he can’t die on or bad shot he won’t jack up. Sochan is aimless. And Keldon lost weight but still has no clue how to play basketball. I know that Vassell, Wemby, and that cocksucker Chris Paul were out and it’s a useless preseason game, but this is a 15 win team without Vic. -

Spurs/Thunder pre-season game 1 tonight. The good news is that it's on CW35 locally and NBATV for those of you out of market. The bad news is that Wemby, CP3, Vassell and SGA are all out. I suppose it's a good chance to check out Castle? -
Game Week Thread Game week thread, Week 6, Red River Shootout
Mitch Cumsteen replied to Wulaw Horn's topic in Football
That turnover margin is inflated a bit by an insane +6 against Temple. That's nearly half of their 13 season turnover total. I still think they're very capable of forcing them and that pick 6 against Auburn turned the game, but they only got 1 against Auburn and 2 against TN. Both those teams were playing with inexperienced QBs. Hopefully we don't go down that road because I don't see how OU wins without winning the turnover battle and/or special teams miscues. -
For a network that promotes their Big Noon game as THE game to watch every week, they are putting some real duds out there. I don't know if they thought all of that through with the west coast Big 10 expansion. Out of an 18 team conference, they can't televise 4 of them when they are at home in that slot. And there's a good chunk of the rest of that conference with little to no national draw.

I think Deboer is a really, really good coach. It's not often that someone of that caliber is available at just the right time in a coaching search. It seems like only Ohio State gets that consistently lucky when they are replacing their coach. Of the few losses that he does have on his record though, a disproportionate number of them are of the WTF variety. Those Washington teams were also in one nail biter after another, that they almost always won. The overall Deboer experience is going to be much different from the Saban experience for Bama fans.

I went a couple of years ago with the kids. Booked an airbnb directly on lake Hamilton and then drove into town whenever we wanted. Highly recommend. There are a million places to hike. I can't remember the specific trails we went on. The ones that were directly up the mountain right behind Hot Springs were just okay, very manicured and crowded. We drove out 45 minutes for a better hike. I just googled it, and I think it was Lake Ouachita? If that was it, then it's fantastic.
