  1. Well, they'd have to know how to spell the guy's name to do a google search.
  2. Done DeWalt and Milwaukee. I'm slowly replacing them with Metabo. https://www.metabo-hpt.com/us/main-navigation/catalogs-literature
  3. So does tomorrow start the legend of 12th Man A, 12th Man B, etc? How many volunteers will come out of the stands to fight for old Army?
  4. And may 2024 be the year we oust the carpetbagger Cruz and replace him with someone who actually wants to serve the State of Texas. I cannot tell you enough how much I learn from you folks. And how many chuckles I've gotten as well. Truly a touchstone of sanity for me at times. Thanks. And thanks to Blacklab and Imma for adding this forum.
  5. We did it at night the first time, like 50 miles of complete darkness and maybe one or two other cars on the road. Very eerie feeling.
  6. Curious what you guys think Strength and Conditioning and depth will play in this game. Seems like Sark and Co have done a good job keeping a lot of talent in rotation to get guys like Ant Hill and Muhammad playing time and experience. And then I would have to imagine our summer trainings and games in the heat would increase our guys' stamina? One of the coaches in the UW article mentioned playing fast to wear out Sweat and Murphy. I saw other teams do that this year and we didn't step off a cliff when our 2nd teamers got in to give the starters breathers. It always seemed that by the end of the game, both our lines had worn the opponents down. Does UW have the same caliber depth?
  7. Team Alex, and when she got back to the mainland she went to work for Billy Bob in Goliath.
  8. Good point, but it can be pivoted to show how Biden is leading the way on changes that need to be made. Doing all he can, and if you didn't get pardoned then look to your state to vote in people who will follow his lead. If nothing else, it starts the conversation and should eventually render some reliable statistics.
  9. No, it just costs more for these smaller stores to maintain good fresh produce, baked goods and meat. They have to charge more for produce for instance to make up for the spoilage they will have because they don't sell in as much volume. My community of 1500 has no local store, we go 10 miles to a town of 1200 who has a Brookshires and two different dollar stores. Then 45 miles further either way is a Kroger, HEB or Walmart Superstore. It's very hard for these small groceries to stay competitive and keep their doors open. Its not that the people are poor and make poor choices, but more like they have fewer choices. A lot of these folks have gardens or neighbors with gardens too. Many of them either hunt or have friends who hunt or fish and they have freezers full of meat and pantries full of home canned goods. Not everyone, but many do.
  10. Now we just need to get a list of all those pardoned in Texas and go register them to vote.
  11. I snapped this right after sundown. The second one was on the trail of lights at zilker. Would have been cool if they lined up somehow. But too many trees and buildings now.
  12. I was glad someone eventually asked Emma a question in the press conference. She's such an important part of this team. Did anyone else catch the lengthy shot of Cook scouting our game v Wisconsin. Did it look like he had dozed off to anyone else? I don't think it was JE who prompted Ella to say no comment to the question about responding to Murray's 'next 3 years' line. I think it was either Asjia or Madi. I'm proud that UT athletics plays with so much sportsmanship. This team is no exception.
  13. I'm thinking that most of the portal and NIL issues will be regulated in some way by the end of this decade. I also see violence in the sport and resulting injuries will probably do more to change the game than anything. There will be different levels that play different versions of the game, where the mid to lower tier play something akin to 7 on 7, and the upper tier will play full contact to feed the NFL machine. Also climate will play a hand in scheduling, or at the very least push those high tier teams to either play games at night on in domes. No more 11 AM or 2:30 games in August/September at least.
  14. They have swag too. Just in time for Christmas. Spread the word and look good doing it | Mothers for Democracy Mothers for Democracy is Mothers Against Greg Abbott, but now expanding to a more national level. They are doing all kinds of awesome work for candidates across the state and are working hard with all sizes of counties. Please support this group. They are truly grassroots and not full of a lot of politicos in it to make a living and/or pad a resume. They also have a sister organization that presents a podcast, and they have just started. The podcasts were targeting the voucher scam and obviously M4D is pushing Gun Reform. They have already endorsed Roland Gutierrez for Senate and I encourage you to check him out. He's real.
  15. Soon we'll be seeing "Elko: Junction Boys 2024"
  16. I understood that Banks signed with UT because they took the time to learn how to spell his first name. Details matter, apparently.
  17. There is no way this douche doesn't identify as white. Just a well tanned white. Fucking Aryan assholes.
  18. The humpee did put on a condom, which I am sure is compliant with their updated code of clean conduct fun. So where's the problem?
  19. I think its original intent is still useful. But the purity of the award, the standards of measurement have been bastardized into a popularity contest, instead of what the individuals bring to the game and their team. The integrity of the award has not been the same since Earl won it. I will never forget Ross Browner and Parseghian dissing UT and Earl from the Heisman podium.
  20. He's especially annoying for those of us who grew up to Wally Pryor and Ron Franklin, Frank Gifford, Pat Summerall. I rarely wish we could go back to the way things were, this is one area where I do. Even Cosell was easier to stomach than Galindo.
  21. I didn't catch the @ there, but the name seemed familiar. He knows his talent level has him stuck in the little B/CS market, so he's doubling down.
  22. Along with getting Arch some real gametime experience, I think Sark wanted some recruits to see the wunderkind is in fact real, showing off his potential and the support the fans have for him. Probably help sell some portal possibles too. I also agree that he waited for the last 4 (potential) games, so even if he had to play Arch in each game going forward, his shirt won't be burned.
  23. There's nothing on that table J Whitt would put in his body. They enjoy it because it spotlights the coach as the problem each time, and the culture never gets questioned. I'd really like one of those coaches to sack up and talk about how that culture affects that football team negatively, and to a lesser degree the other sports. But aggy sure likes to point out our culture like it's some plague. Typical lack of self awareness.
  24. I agree to an extent. I imagine they'll use that time to find out if he is MAGA electable and will run him if he is, and if not will drop him. Surely other MAGA lunatics will rise to the top of that slop bucket to overtake him as the shiny bauble of the moment.
