  1. Waymo can’t possibly be worse or more dangerous than the worst 10% of human drivers. Also, the sooner semi trucks are driverless the better. Over the 40 years of my driving life semis have gone from a nuisance to an existential threat.
  2. Losing ESPN has been a bit of a palate cleanse. Or losing travel during covid. Life is fine without 18 hours of football. I do want to see Texas non revenue sports. I will find a way to get that. But I won’t necessarily drop YT just because of no Disney. I will if they raise the price. As far as live tv our family wants Texas sports, the big 4 networks, and just two or three other specific channels. I’ve tried every service that provides that. Until this month, YT was the best value. The only other ones that had what we want were Hulu and DTVStream. Hulu is awful. Just an abominable experience. Direct TV Stream is the best but it’s owned by ATT and so therefore is Disney-level evil with regular price hikes. Not sure how the dust will settle. It seems like whenever I settle into a set of subscriptions I am happy with it is very quickly exploded somehow. Getting tired of it.
  3. These extensions are just so dumb. Saban and Kirby are the exceptions to the rule that a championship run is simply lightning in a bottle and can turn to shit the very next season. There’s nobody with a sustained level of success that warrants a ten year deal except maybe the two aforementioned guys. Fuck these agents. If your guy wants to leave for another job with a long term deal, then bye.
  4. Please secede.
  5. I will shit a gold plated statue of Phil Simms if the Giants hire Steve Sarkisian.
  6. I've been to a game there. Overall good experience. The fans were fine. We came in from Augusta and I will say the drive into town from that side did not do it any favors. We did enjoy the downtown area though. Very lively and fun. I personally would not have anything to do with Atlanta other than getting out of it in my rental car.
  7. Delp and the other TE (can’t remember his name) are really good players. Like as good or better than Stowers who we couldn’t even cover when we knew he was their best threat. We can probably slow their run game down but who believes our LBs can cover their backs and TEs? So this is probably not a game for Sark to “take the points”. Need to have the red zone offense be unfucked for a change.
  8. Getting pegged is not grounds for termination
  9. It’s like showing up to vote for Mr Burns because the other candidate is Sideshow Bob.
  10. Today has been chock full of ugly football.
  11. Every Iowa first down is a colossal achievement Move down
  12. Every point digs Iowas grave a foot deeper
  13. Indiana defense is gassed. Arm tackles galore. If Indiana offense has a 3 and out game is probably over.
  14. Both QBs in this Tech game are HS QBs.
  15. Disney is pure Evil
  16. Joey is a square jaw metroplex Bevis
  17. No. They have run the ball and sacked Norton twice. Their QB is jag
  18. Their CBs are tiny.
  19. This dumb BYU OC needs to just run the ball until they stop it
  20. Yeah I think I heard that wrong. Now I think he said the pylon was attached to engine and came off with engine. That is the AA 191 scenario. The way he says it is confusing to me so I am not sure.
  21. All of the streaming services suck, eventually. They are good for a little bit of their existence and then the price increases and consolidation and cost cutting doom them all. Fuck everybody, man.
  22. NTSB says based on video they have the pylon was still attached to wing after the engine came off. That means it’s a different failure scenario than AA 191. They've asked for maintenance records from ST Aviation in San Antonio where the airplane had its last heavy check (and therefore where the engines would have been removed). They also said the takeoff roll was normal until 37 seconds into it when a persistent bell started going off on CVR. The bell lasted for the remaining 25 seconds of the flight. They did not say this but per Google an engine fire will trigger a warning bell. On these older airplanes there is a fire loop which is essentially a metallic circuit that melts and breaks the circuit when there is a fire (and is the source of a lot of nuisance alarms.) interesting to see from wreckage if the fire handle was pulled although it probably wouldn’t have mattered since there wasn’t enough airspeed to recover and the fire bottles would be on the runway
  23. I can’t believe the money at Cal got that way by being that dumb
