  1. There was lots of home cooking involved. Reminds me the OU games under Riley. They basically raped our WRs and dared the refs to call a DPI on every fucking passing play.
  2. They should've used a ratchet strap.
  3. She married the dude. I wonder if she made him sign a pre-nup.
  4. Rednecks with Paychecks event? In Texas? No wai!
  5. He dead, except in prequels.
  6. That grouping is fun. Tom Kim likes to talk shit. Sheff gave it right back. Funny that they are good friends off the course.
  7. This is the most boring kind of golf to watch and play.
  8. States leges are passing/trying to pass laws which will protect their state schools from the NCAA doing anything to thwart "NIL" payments. NCAA pretty much is fucked. Their time to do anything has passed. Also, the optics on this dude is that he's all about the money. Will be interesting to see which coach/program takes a chance on this guy when he hits the portal. CTJ says the dude is a better runner than passer. Aggy will prob be first in line because desperation. I'm half joking.
  9. How else are the children to grow up to become assholes?
  10. Fall is approaching. He's just getting ready for hibernation.
  11. Spoiler that! There are children who peruse this site.
  12. Seatbelts are kinda important. slow mo'ed https://imgur.com/G7zU9zr
  13. Sooo....there's a lawsuit in Harris County which alleges that the 2021 Icepocalypse and power outages shitshow was a result of market manipulation by gas companies to get more profits. Interesting read. I'm sure it will go nowhere because in this state O&G companies own our legislature. Remember that CFO of the O&G co backed by Jerry Jones saying tha they "hit the jackpoint" when the the price of MWh hit $9K a few days after the blackout? https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4896585-texas-gas-manipulation-lawsuit-uri/ Lawsuits allege deadly 2021 Texas blackouts were an inside job Those companies, plaintiff’s lawyer Andrew Gould argued on Monday, “diverted natural gas before winter, to create artificial scarcity — thus driving up the price.” The defendants in the case include nearly three dozen major Texas gas extraction, pipeline companies and banks: Companies like CenterPoint Energy, BP, Energy Transfer Partners and Morgan Stanley. The Hill has reached out to these companies, but only CenterPoint responded, to say that it does not comment on pending litigation. But on Monday, company lawyers argued that even if the claims were true, the Harris County courthouse didn’t have jurisdiction, because the 2021 state legislative session had established a process which, ultimately, ruled that the sky-high profits by the defendants were fair. The plaintiffs “could have participated in that regulatory process, and could have raised all the complaints that they’re raising now about utilities,” Weston O’Black, an attorney for CenterPoint, said on Monday. Had they missed that opportunity, O’Black argued, the only other means of challenging those conclusions was to do so in Travis County district court — an opportunity that has now expired. But CirclesX attorneys charged that the harm to Texans had happened long before that legislative process began. Its suit comes on the heels of courts in Oklahoma and Arkansas finding market manipulation by pipeline companies during Winter Storm Uri — as well as a wave of other suits that allege manipulation in Texas. It also follows widespread, bigger-picture allegations of market manipulation and racketeering by the oil and gas industry — like the July lawsuit by the city of Baltimore that argued oil and gas driller pioneer had illegally conspired with foreign governments to inflate the price of oil and gas. The charges aired in court on Monday were a far more limited version of CirclesX’s broader, more explosive claims: For decades, Texas’s major pipeline companies have covertly squeezed gas supplies before cold snaps and hurricanes. In doing this, the plaintiffs argued, they have driven up the price, and then using the ensuing disaster as a cover to break existing contracts, freeing up their gas supplies to be sold for newly-soaring prices on the spot market. “Winter Storm Uri followed this playbook,” the suit argues, “and indeed represents the most egregious example of Defendants’ manipulation and their greatest heist yet.” In this alleged “heist,” the suit contends, the gas companies starved their contracted customers of gas, helping ensure the shortages that led to blackouts, hundreds of deaths and costs of hundreds of billions of dollars. “Simply stated, the ‘failure to winterize’ narrative is misleading,” the CirclesX lawyers wrote.
  14. He wants to be able to play with his kid at Utah. The Griffeys, the James, and hopefully the Risings.
  15. It was probably justified at the time because we were losing recruits to other programs, and it was premature because Baker needed time to build the relationships and because we are now the number 1 team in America, and all that that implies.
  16. This is 180 from just 2 months ago when, rightly justified, most everyone was questioning Baker and his ability to recruit. Not sure how much of the change is Baker vs just being the fucking number 1 team in the land. Maybe both? I don't care. I just hope we keep fucking them brakes.
  17. For the love of gawd, please no time travel and alternate realities bullshit. Just give me a straight up good-ish guys versus bad guys, lots of explosions, some humor, and a half decent plot. Not too much to ask. Make me not regret seeing a Marvel product not named Deadpool.
  18. Maybe he wanted to kill the fuckhead back judge, who threw the bullshit targeting flag and didn't throw a flag for Wingo getting molested on a deep ball, and had to be restrained from other players.
  19. Fuck the dude with the football. I'm gonna make sure I take out my blocker. Highlight reel, bitches.
  20. Not just us. I've seen videos of different college stadiums playing Thunderstuck to amp up the crowd to the same theme: lights off, LED lights synched to Thunderstruck.
  21. Every Saturday, AC/DC receives a shitton of royalty revenue. I think every college stadium plays Thunderstruck at least once.
  22. Energy on the field was different. In the 1st half, after plays, the D was much more active talking shit to, interacting with each other. In the 2nd half after plays, there was little interaction. It was like, eh, next play. During that series, there was a ton of interaction between the players. They were amped and wanted the safety.
