  1. The best in Texas leave Texas (to avoid conviction)
  2. I don’t want to oversell this, but we are winning the next three national championships in a row. They’re going to have to pass laws to stop us.
  3. I just got back from Ketchikan. We flew Air Canada, though. Southern Alaska is shockingly pleasant this time of year. Food was also surprisingly good, albeit fuck all expensive.
  4. we have joined a conference of fucking crybabies
  5. I've been doing these for years and didn't really have a name for them. This is excellent. Dude, thank you for this. The other day I mentioned to my wife that I wanted to find a place that did beef stromboli because I was nostalgic about this place we went to on South Lamar in high school for discount buffet, but I couldn't remember the name of it. It was one of those stories that starts off somewhere then quickly trails off and makes her question my mental health (and therefore warranting the senility checks). Trying to remember the name of the place has been bothering me ever since. It was Double Dave's. This is like finally getting a popcorn kernel dislodged from my teeth.
  6. It’s a relief when certain posters, especially BOW but others as well, disagree with me on here. It’s a better confirmation of how right I am than just about anything else. what’s funny is that with a lot of posters - futureman, helobious- Im fairly confident that it’s a bit or that they’re trolling. BOW definitely likes to troll, but he’s bad enough at it that you can tell when he’s being serious. I honestly doubt that hes that big of an asshole IRL, but on here hes something special. I would be honestly shocked if 90% of the people on this board dont remember Spike Dykes. First, because you’re all old as shit, and second, because his son is coaching at TCU.
  7. He would likely take a pay cut. His currently salary at Texas $1.9 million, and most NFL DCs make around $1 million. Obviously guys like Vic Fangio make a lot more than that, but they've also been in the league forever. If he was killing himself on the recruiting trail then maybe. But I don't think that's the case either. Anything can happen, but I think we'll have PK for a few more seasons at least.
  8. Honestly, that's what I thought we were doing when we moved to this fucking conference. Turns out these guys bitch even more than the whiniest elements of the Big 12. I swear, dealing with ISU and OkSU fans was better.
  9. You know what's nice? I don't give a shit about Georgia. If CFB was a neighborhood, OU would be the asshole from across the street that we fucking hate and have to deal with all the time. Aggies would be our embarrassing redneck cousin who our mom makes us spend time with and who constantly talks about how great his life in La Porte and our life in the big city with all the hobos and the gays must suck. Baylor, Tech, and TCU are gross people from around the block whose loud music and antics frequently interfere with our quiet enjoyment of the backyard. Arkansas is some dude we knew in high school and who we actively avoid when we see him at the grocery store. Georgia? They're some fucking weird on the bus. Somebody who is clearly not right but nonetheless tries to strike up a conversation. I don't give a shit about talking to them or wasting my energy on them because I've got my own life to live. Maybe someday they'll graduate to a program I care enough about to hate. But they're not our friends, family, or neighbors and I don't give a single shit about them other than the week we happen to play. My prediction? They will, at best, be our next Nebraska. Fuck 'em. Fuck Smart too, with his stupid fucking haircut and poindexter hat. Toss them on the pile with the rest of the CFB world that hate us because they ain't us.
  10. Is this why you eat salsa with your bare hands like a toddler (or whatever CTJ is accusing you of I haven't followed it that closely)? I was one of those people who thought Harris was incompetent. Or, at best, a biddable yes-man who tweeted eye emojis that did not actually seem to be related to recruiting. And I don't think my sentiment was entirely unfounded. Now - yeah, you appear to be correct. I'm glad that Sark was able to see something in him and that the guy has gotten his shit together. I've said this a bunch of times, and I'll say it again at my peril, but I am fully in "trust the corches" mode when it comes to the Sark regime. If Sark was willing to let Glasscock go and put Harris in that role, dumb as it seemed to me at the time, that seems to have been the right call.
  11. This seems dumb. Not doubting the veracity of your post, just saying that you and every Chicagoan is regarded for denying themselves something delicious out of … I don’t know? Some sense of bucking the stereotype? Deep dish pizza rocks. The deep dish starburst from Star Pizza is the go to when I have my druthers. Maybe it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but the idea that it is objectively bad is, well, just dumb as fuck. I’m not trying to be a pedant but the idea that everyone in Chicago thinks this pizza sucks seems specious.
  12. Weird that you call it pizza when it's clearly an open face sandwich.
  13. I don't like the guy, but that intro to Cheers is still the all time best. Credit where it's due.
  14. Look, crack may be in the vehicle I just want to make sure she isn't driving.
  15. Here is the video of the official explaining the penalty: To me, it sounds like the new rule has nothing to do with the shift - which is still perfectly legal. If the OL jumps because of the shift, then it's a false start penalty. What is actually illegal now is when the DL moves to simulate the snap. If the DL twitches or jumps and it draws the OL to false start, the defense will get a delay of game penalty. I still don't like the new rule because I think it will be abuse and I have no faith in officials correctly enforcing it. But the tweet is not accurately describing the new rule, which has nothing to do with a shift except as an example of what is still being allowed.
