  1. Yeah, that's a different topic. He definitely needs to play better than he did in the first half in order for this team to have a legit shot at a NC.
  2. It's one half of football on the road against a team that regards this game as its Super Bowl. It's not shocking that Texas isn't winning by 20+ points at halftime.
  3. It's always fun to read the overreactions in the game day thread.
  4. On the bright side, we played relatively clean in the first half. No TO's and only one penalty. Continue playing clean with a lead and the defense hitting on all 8, and chances are good.
  5. Nah, the punt took a huge hop off the turf. They were in position, but there was nothing they could really do given the bounce it took.
  6. That's true. They could probably run it down to about a minute before they punt. That second down play was a run all the way with the QB. I think they're just trying to get to h alftime.
  7. Pig now deep in their own territory with 2nd and long and Texas with only one TO. Pig gets 2nd half kickoff. Won't surprise me if Pig chooses to run out the clock.
  8. Nothing like a 21-yard net punt. Moore and Simmons combine nicely on first down, though.
  9. Nice looking drive derailed by pure stupidity.
  10. Just a fucking stupid decision. Throw the ball into the ground or into the bench.
  11. If you're referring to the third down play where the pig crowd wanted a flag on Barron earlier in the game, the receiver slipped on the play. Or are you referring to a different play?
  12. Fucking refs likely cost us 4 points. That was PI.
  13. Gotta take advantage of that shank.
  14. Their slot guy on punt protection was wide open over the middle. NOt sure if their punter can throw the ball at all, but if he can, that's something that I would watch out for in similar situations later in the game.
  15. Another TNF game where the refs cover themselves in glory
  16. Well, they were probably trying to get the gold.
  17. This. Any other game they're throwing a flag if an O-lineman so much as flinches, and they miss that?? Is the NFL recruiting refs from the Big 12? That might explain things.
  18. I'm currently working on chile habanero bottles from El Yucateco and Mexico Lindo, and I prefer the El Yucateco.
  19. Gotdam!
  20. Sorry to sound callous, but I wonder what species was the perp. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/dingo-dinkelman-youtuber-known-south-000000703.html Dingo Dinkelman, YouTuber Known As South Africa’s Steve Irwin, Dies After Snake Bite . . .
  21. Wtf is that on his head?
  22. Understood. No fanbase is perfectly well-behaved. The game 1 incident was different from last night's arm wrestling match, though. The guy in game 1 didn't grab a player's arm, hold on to it, pry open the player's glove, etc. He just reached into the field of play to catch a ball. That's fan interference as well, but that kind of interference happens from time to time [*coughjeffreymeiercough*] and doesn't involve physical contact with the player. The incident last night? I had never seen anything like that in an MLB game.
  23. FWIW, I'm not a Dodgers fan. And I should have said in my prior post that you are excluded from the "douchebag" comment because you're reasonable. Mea culpa.
  24. Part of me is pleased that we'll have at least one more game. With that said, fuck the Yankees and their douchebag fans.
  25. My grandpa drove a 1946 Schenley. Rode great but he could never find parts anywhere.
