  1. Well the only reason we are watching is because we are from here so side interests in remembering all the news reporters and city leaders, and I was basically the same age as the girls. The quality of the film is pretty lackluster in both our views and we wouldn’t watch it independent of our local affinities.
  2. According to the film maker it’s not a who dunit, its a documentary about false confessions. Not sure she’s trying to add more detail to the investigation as a primary objective.

    Whatcha reading?

  4. That’s Poors milk. Surly 1% bitches
  5. You see dear little Rimbo, when a man really loves a woman, or really loves a man, or really loves a they them or their, they do things that just friends don’t do, well unless they are friends with benefits in which case they do the things that a man who loves a woman, or loves a man, or loves they them or their would do, except they might do it more because, well it’s less complicated, but anyway, one day you’ll know all about it when your 45 years old.
  6. We’d have 9 total. more if we did it as auburn has.
  7. now that you say that I vaguely remember watching on the TV the year before...
  8. I was there also, row 2 of the upper deck, the infamous Jerry Gray chase down. I was at the uga game too. that one is frozen in time (IYKKYK). most painful texas game of my lifetime.
  9. I think we should claim the 9
  10. And then this … Good question. Short answer: Texas could stretch beyond 9 claimed titles, but only if they follow the same aggressive logic Auburn used—counting every NCAA-listed selector, even the very obscure or inconsistent ones. Baseline: 9 Titles Texas currently claims 4 (1963, 1969, 1970, 2005). The NCAA record book credits Texas with 5 additional national championships (1914, 1941, 1968, 1977, 1981). That’s the 9 “legitimate” max if Texas just aligns with all NCAA-recognized major selectors (the same standard A&M used). Could They Go Beyond 9? Yes, if they: Adopt all “minor selectors” that named Texas champion (the NCAA records section lists many fringe systems: Houlgate, Dunkel, Poling, Boand, Litkenhous, etc.). Retro-claim shared titles in seasons where Texas finished #2 or was a top-three team and at least one obscure selector gave them the nod. For example: 1930s & 1950s: Some systems threw out odd picks that weren’t AP/UPI leaders. Late 1970s–1980s: Texas sometimes finished near the top; a fringe rating system occasionally crowned them. By doing this, Texas could probably push their “total claimed” number into the low double digits (11–13 range)—but those would be much weaker claims than the 9 that are already documented by major NCAA selectors. Why They Haven’t Texas has historically taken a conservative stance—only claiming consensus or near-consensus titles. Schools like Auburn and UCF have been more aggressive, “claiming everything the NCAA book lists,” even when selectors are obscure. Texas has the luxury of history: 4 consensus titles plus the 5 major-selector ones already make them a blue-blood without needing to stretch. … without needing to stretch lol.
  11. Yep here’s my ChatGPT friend saying the same thing … You’re absolutely right—schools like Auburn and Texas A&M have recently expanded their official national title claims by including retroactive selections recognized by the NCAA in its record books. Texas hasn’t expanded yet, but there are indeed several seasons where the NCAA acknowledges a Longhorn title that UT simply hasn’t claimed. Let’s break down what Texas could add—and why. NCAA-Recognized But Unclaimed Texas Championships According to the official NCAA “FBS Records” and corroborated by multiple sources, Texas was selected as national champion in nine seasons by NCAA-designated major selectors, but only claims four: Claimed (4): 1963, 1969, 1970, 2005 Unclaimed (5): 1914, 1941, 1968, 1977, and 1981 Here’s a quick look at those unclaimed years: 1914 Texas finished 8–0 and was retroactively named national champion by the Billingsley Report (Margin of Victory version) . 1941 With an 8–1–1 record, Texas received national champion recognition by the Berryman QPRS and Williamson System . 1968 The Longhorns (9–1–1) were selected by the Devold System, Matthews Grid Ratings, and Sagarin Ratings . 1977 Texas (11–1) was recognized by Berryman, FACT, and Sagarin (ELO‑Chess) . 1981 The team (10–1–1) was named national champion by the National Championship Foundation .
  12. so if texas did the same thing, what's our title total? for shit and giggles grins and shit and stuff...?
  13. thank god I shut her down. in the past I've let whaky shit slide. once upon a time she was actually at the cutting edge, shit like "leaky gut" and gut/brain axis and stuff, now she's just a nut.
  14. uh, it's the white house dot gov brotini, broski, brozambino... what a fucking world man.
  15. wft? y'all see dicks everywhere.
  16. I love my mom but she was suffering some shortness of breath, fatigue, etc. from something. went to her quack nutritionist who said, "it's the spike protein." my mom explains to me, "you know how when you sit next to someone who had the flu shot and you can get the flu? He thinks that's how I got the spike protein, from someone's covid vax." I then said, mom, the spike protein IS the coronavirus... sounds like you actually, finally caught the covid. her mind was blown, she assumed the only ones that get covid are those who got the jab. fuuuuuck.
  17. stay away from the cum sock though, dat shit is nasty.
  18. could be true though not sure which one of those guys is titty-licious and packing heat. only difference is 80% of y'all wouldn't run off in fear. that kinda shit isn't popular on porn hub for no reason.
  19. “People not named me”, says errybody
  20. I could probably kill two birds with one stone on the volleyball thing, if I can get my wife interested in "sports ball" .... as she calls it. damn I sure know how to pick them. I agree and think this may be the best texas defense of my lifetime. I vaguely remember how stifling the '83 team was at 9.5 points per game, last year was 15.3 points per game in a different era of football. '05 was great (16.4 ppg) but I don't think it will stand up to this defense when the season is over. 2025 probably going to go down as the best front seven of all time imo.
  21. You must be a poor or a stingy rat bastard that won’t give up $3.50 for you daily habit Edit - being a number one jerkwad asshole makes me feel bad. I was joking. we do expect a report back on what’s in the celebration pack…
  22. I’m officially frustrated. I either need to get laid or watch a Texas football game. Maybe both but let’s be honest at 50 I can probably only handle one or the other and 3 hours of football sounds more exotic and enticing at this point in the cycle.
  23. Start with the next time you are privileged with a slice of bacon out a dab of peanut butter on it and it’ll just take off from there
