  1. Let me guess, they are "Oozing" championship mentality. https://texags.com/s/40927/aggies-ooze-confidence-and-championship-mentality-ahead-of-2021-season
  2. Here's the TV schedule-grid site I prefer: https://cfb.guide/
  3. Nice gesture, but this dude is an absolute toolbag who should have been flagged multiple times last year against us for taunting. I'll give him a pass for embracing the heel role when he threw the Horns down the entire time while accepting some recognition at halftime of the Sugar Bowl last year.
  4. To be clear, if we're already Burnt Ends members, still need to buy the season pass? I'll probably be there most if not all home games. I'll certainly donate as well for a friend tagging along. Likely to be at Michigan as well, just haven't pulled the trigger yet. Waiting on plans from family in Detroit.
  5. Please stop interviewing Haynes King. He can’t string more than four words together.
  6. Still moving through my dynasty but it doesn't hold my attention for too long so only in year two. Have been enjoying Road to CFP online more instead. The 3-minute quarters are good for keeping the length of the game down. Also pretty much everyone quits once they get down 14 or so. I've gotten two promotions so far with 66% winning percentage or something, so haven't sniffed the actual playoffs yet. Friends and I made our first foray into Ultimate Team mode last night when we figured out it was a way all three of us could play at the same time. We got wrecked of course since our team was made up of shitty players. Was still fun but man Ultimate Team mode and the menus are very overwhelming at first. Not gonna sink real money into it but wouldn't mind getting a bit more familiar with how it all works.
  7. Dug it. Very familiar feeling but enough of a twist on stuff we’ve seen before in the franchise to keep it fun. A lot of references and call backs, some subtle, some not.
  8. Tough deal for the six continental representative athletes having to stand up there for these entire speeches.
  9. On the topic of the surfers missing out, I did see that at least our gold medal winner Caroline Marks did make it to Paris for the last couple days and closing ceremonies.
  10. Missed it, what happened?
  11. Tara is a beast (and a beauty)! Love it
  12. Morocco up 5-0 on Egypt in the semi.
  13. The USA golds in men's 100, 400 and 1500 have all been epic
  14. Looks like the chest cost the Canadian vaulter there.
  15. Oof, very unfortunate but big opportunities in store for the others in that room.
  16. Dallas Mavericks tv PBP man Mark Followill. He is a bit amped up. I think calling these games from a booth in Connecticut must be hard to find the right intensity.
  17. Duplantis is putting on a show
  18. Yeah I remember Viserys learning and passing it down last season. I guess the issue is my own skepticism that the knowledge of this prophecy will significantly affect anything in this show, since we know the ultimate outcome in GoT. It’s kinda the classic problem with prequels. (TBF it did influence Daemon here and Viserys previously) I meant when Helena appeared and spoke at the end of Daemon’s vision. Then it transitioned directly to the scene with her and Aemond. It initially stuck out to me since I don’t remember she and Daemon interacting before. But I wasn’t thinking about her ability for foresight.
  19. I was enjoying the first half of the episode. But, the second half left me wanting. Quite anticlimactic, though it did set some things up. Daemon’s move (or lack there of) did surprise me, but story-wise it was probably the least compelling decision he could make. Did I imagine or misread something significant between Helena and Daemon from his vision? Rhaena looking for the dragon added nothing since we all knew where it was going. Doesn’t help that I had to look up her character name. The lippy new dragon rider provided tension that I assume will go somewhere eventually but I was expecting more to happen here. The visions of GoT “winter is coming” imagery, Daenarys, etc., are cool and all, but feel contrived to me. I will say that production value and performances are excellent. Really hope they deliver the next season more quickly than this one.
  20. Saves the US streak of winning at least one gold in an individual male swimming event, every Olympics since 1904.
