Update from Gerry just now: Brandon Brown Update OnTexasFootball spoke with a person close to the recruitment of 4-star Texas commitment Brandon Brown (Melbourne, Fla./Eau Gallie) within the last hour. Here is the latest: 1. Brown is not de-committing from Texas today or tomorrow barring a major change, flipping to LSU and ending his recruiting process. Just answering some questions being asked. 2. Brown intends to make the official visits scheduled. Tennessee June 7-9, Texas June 14-16 and likely Miami June 21-23. 3. Brown has been on the phone with defensive line coach Kenny Baker since the LSU visit concluded. 4. Brown is scheduled to speak with Steve Sarkisian tonight around 6 p.m. central.

We're in New York right now. Wifey spotted this on the B Train 34th St. subway stop:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/fauci-testifies-before-congress-for-first-time-since-leaving-government-5-takeaways-from-the-hearing-183418709.html During the five minutes she was allotted questions, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the Republican from Georgia, informed Fauci that she was refusing to call him a doctor because she said she believes he “does not deserve to have a license” and should be “in prison.” The remarks drew objections from Democrats on the committee and from Wenstrup, who instructed Greene to refer to Fauci — who received a doctorate in medicine from Cornell University in 1966 before joining the National Institutes of Health — by his earned title. “The gentle lady should recognize the doctor as a doctor,” Wenstrup said. “I'm not addressing him as a doctor,” Greene replied. Later in the hearing, Rep. Jared Moskowitz, a Democrat from Florida, apologized to Fauci for Greene’s behavior. "I saw a member of this committee question whether you represent science," Moskowitz said. “I just want you to know most Americans don't think she represents Congress.”

So Ukraine gets the green light to be disciplined and only strike military targets to defend themselves and all of the sudden they are seeing a significant uptick in success and a significant downtick in Russian supplies making it to the front lines? Weird. It's a big bummer we didn't feel like this was appropriate and were afraid of "escalating" or whatever the reason was with Russia until now.

The fucking mental meltdown this response gets is stunning. I wear a veteran shirt, Rando walks up to me and asks if I'm a Vet. (No, I just like the way the shirt looks) I say yeah and they thank me for my service. I normally say thanks, but I started saying vote Biden. This triggers a double, no.. TRIPLE clutch at speed that most aren't prepared for. (gears grinding) But, you're a vet, right? Yeah. (gears grinding) And you support Biden? Yep. (gears grinding) Fuck you!

Game of inches.... Hook 'em 🤘

This really sucks. Dude grew up impoverished in Compton, didn't even graduate high school so he couldn't play Division I and worked his way up to becoming a Hall of Famer. Not only was he a great football player but also a great father as evidenced by his son going to Harvard. Really sad.

there actually was, but Trump threw it out.

The SEC isn't going to dictate much of anything as it pertains to the Texas/OU game. That game is a crown jewel in the overall deal and numerous issues around it were discussed preemptively. The notion of flipping it to an end zone to end zone split is as foreign to all aspects of the Texas/OU game as literacy and taste are to Auburn and LSU.

I think they’re faced with the conundrum of how do they give Trump immunity without giving Biden immunity.

Interview with English subtitles of 24 yo russian captured in North Karkhiv. Out of 300, only 9 of them remained after a few days. He speaks of colossal losses, confusion and blocking troops. There are told to move forward no matter what. When they arrive at the first UA village, it was empty. Then it was a rain of fire....

“When he called Mexicans rapists, Republicans moved the line. When he mocked a disabled reporter, they moved the line. When he demeaned John McCain for being a POW and insulted a Gold Star family, they moved the line. When he bragged about grabbing women by the pussy, they moved the line. When he extorted Ukraine, shut down the government to pay for the wall MEXICO was supposed to pay for, took his daddy Vladdy’s side over our own intelligence agencies, said Nazis were “very fine people” and praised murderous despots, they moved the line. When he bungled a pandemic, asked about injecting disinfectants and golfed while thousands of Americans were dying a day, they moved the line. When he refused to accept the results of the election, plotted a coup and incited an attack against our Capitol, they moved the line. When his gilded golf motel was searched by the FBI because he had our national security secrets in his f’ng bathroom, they moved the line. When he was indicted the first time, they moved the line. Then they moved it again for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th times. When he was found liable of sexual abuse which the judge said could be referred to as rape, they moved the line. Then they moved it again when he was found liable of business fraud. And now he is a convicted felon. A jury of his peers reached unanimous agreement that he was guilty on all 34 counts, and what are they doing… They’re moving the goddamn line. There isn’t a thing he could ever do that they won’t accommodate. Nothing. He could set fire to the Declaration of Independence while Boerberting Putin and shouting “Death to America” at the same damn time on a TikTok live and they’d twist themselves into whatever the fuck kinda pretzels they needed to in order for it not to cross a line. Because they’re cowards. Craven, cuckholding cowards. And for them, when it comes to Trump, there is no fucking line.”

Happy pride month trumpy neighbor definitely better hang that flag upside down now!!!

TK outpitched stompy girl again.

What a joke, but the slow walking of all these trials by both state and federal prosecutors set the stage for such a possibility. We should have been going after these traitors from the jump. The fact that those supporting the insurrection were allowed back into Congress itself is incredibly suspect. I hope we can somehow avoid disaster, but boy howdy are we cutting it close…

Makes me sad to know there’s a segment of so called college football fans (including a few on surly) who don’t think anybody but the top 20-25 “blue bloods” should be playing ball and everyone else should fold up their programs and just play school. Would sorely miss all the awesome atmospheres at smaller programs like this if that were to happen.

She is my kryptonite. Mid 40's, brunette, attractive, big tits, good job, fucks, etc. After killing Brisket with a spoon to get to her, I'd marry her after six months of dating only to then realize she's bat shit fucking crazy.

Immamac's posts are just another explanation of how "moderate/undecided/disengaged" voters require perfection of any democrat from solely their individual perspective, and if that doesn't happen (which is literally impossible), well I guess I'll just vote for the angry one who says government sucks, or just won't vote because "both sides suck" which usually results in right wingers who do nothing winning elections. There's no solution to that problem for democrats, the majority of American's have full on brain rot, to the fucking core, there is nothing that will ever be enough for these people.

Ditch Pig works here.

That App is AWESOME! Fully endorsed. My dad passed away a couple of years ago after a long slow decline with Alzheimer’s. One thing he held onto was looking up at the sky. In the latter years, on long, slow, shuffling walks around the block, he’d still stop when anything flew overhead and spot the aircraft. I’d look it up on flightradar 24 and give him the details of the aircraft, origin, destination, etc. I was usually able to show him the picture too. He always lit up with the information. Even though he couldn’t read anymore (brain couldn’t translate letters to words), he loved to see those pictures and talk as best he could about the plane/helo. Dang. It’s dusty in here. Allergies.

This one hurts, for sure. He is of my all-time favorite Cowboys, and possibly #1. He was just relentless. Didn't run his mouth. Wasn't dirty. Just had the goal of making his opponent tap out, every game. RIP Larry Allen. Here is his speech from Canton and the HoF: Whew, how about them Cowboys? During my career, I didn't talk that much, but I didn't have to. I used my helmet. Whew, okay. So later on in this speech, I'm going to need some help from my Dallas Cowboy fans, so when I say how about them Cowboys, I need to you scream as loud as you can. Well, first, I'd like to thank Jerry Jones for that amazing introduction. He's been like a father figure to me, and whenever I needed his help, he was there to help. I'd also like to thank his beautiful wife, Gene Jones, his children, Charlotte, Jerry Jr., and Steven, and the rest of his family. I'd also like to thank Marilyn Love and Rich Dalrymple. Of course I want to thank my heart and soul, my wife, Janelle. On our first date, she cooked for me. She cooked me two chickens, french fries and baked me a cake and gave me a 40 ounce. I knew then, that was my wife right there (laughing). She has blessed me with three beautiful children, Jayla Lee Allen, she's a talented actress and a writer. She helped me write this speech. I remember when she was a little girl, I would have a bad game. She was sensitive, and she'd come up to me and say, “Daddy, what's wrong?” She was about four-years old. She would bring me cookies, cakes and just try to cheer me up. She'll be going to Pepperdine University this year I'm so proud of my little mama, and I hope she'll turn into I know she's going to be an amazing woman. My youngest, Loriana Allen, she's a basketball player. She's kind of like LeBron James. She's pretty good. She's the funniest person I know. She makes me laugh all the time. To my son, Larry Allen III. He's a 6'4", 290 pound offensive lineman that plays at De La Salle High School, the No. 1 team in California. He's the smartest person I know, and I'm proud of you, Son. Very polite, but once he gets on that field, he's a beast, just like his daddy. I also want to thank my mother, Vera Allen, she can't be here tonight. She passed away. I know she's looking down on me smiling. I was a young boy, and my little brother got into a fight and I went to protect him. Growing up in Compton, California, it's rough out there. I was protecting my little brother with the guy who was a little older than me. He ended up stabbing me. Three months later my mother said, I'm not raising any punks, so she made me fight this guy. She said you will fight him until you win. First day I lost. Second day I lost. The third day I finally won. That was one of the most valuable lessons I learned in my life, never to back down from anybody. I carried that lesson through my whole career. I just knew I had to win every play, and that's the reason why I'm here today. I'd also like to thank my father. On the other end, he taught me to never get mad, but to get even, to control my temper. I also used that in the game of football. I knew if I lost a play, I had 45 seconds to get even. I'd like to say thank you to my brother, Von, happy birthday, little brother. After every game I knew when I checked my phone I would receive a text from him telling me how good I did, and I want to say thank you. Another lady who made a huge impact on my life was my grandmother, Berkeley Dotson. She was a hard working woman. She owned three successful restaurants in Los Angeles. She spoiled me to death and gave me whatever I wanted, but she taught me you have to work for what you've gotten. When I was 14, she sat me down and said, Larry, you need to find out what you're good at and go do it. I think I did that, Granny (laughing). About two months later, it was my first year of football. I was a junior at Centennial High School in Compton, California. My senior year I moved to Napa Valley, and went to Vintage High School. I made a good friend there, his name is Steve Hagland; he's like my brother. He said, come on, come live with us. And his family they treated me like I was one of their own. I'd like to thank them. The next year I went to Butte Junior College, Chico, California. A big party school, I had a lot of fun up there. It was great. The next year I attended Sonoma State University. When Frank called me, I didn't have the grades to transfer up from JC, he said I can get you into school, and the rest is history. He got me into school and turned out great for me. I was fortunate enough to be drafted by the Dallas Cowboys. I remember getting a call from Jerry saying, Son, would you like to be a Cowboy? I said, yes, sir. Ran out of my apartment and jumped into the swimming pool with all my clothes on. When I got to Dallas, they had just won two Super Bowls. They had the best player at every position. I was a rookie. I didn't start. It was the first time in my life I didn't start. So what I did was learn. I learned from a lot of great players like Erik Williams, Derek Kennard, Mark Stepnoski, Nate Newton, Ray Donaldson, and the great Mark Tuinei, who I know is looking down here today. All these great linemen took me under their wing and they helped me. I'd like to say thank you to all of them. I also practiced against great players like Charles Haley, who should be in the Hall of Fame. Russell Maryland, Leon Lett, Tony Tolbert, Dexter Coakley, Greg Ellis, Robert Jones, Darren Woodson, and Chad Hennings. Thank you, guys. Now to the Cowboy Hall of Famers I played with. Troy Aikman, you showed me how to come to work every day and be a professional, and I thank you. Michael Irvin, nobody practiced harder than Michael Irvin. Deion Sanders, who showed me it was all right to be the best (laughing). Emmitt Smith, the all-time leading rusher, I thank you. You've been a great friend to me. Growing up in L.A., the Rams were the team I watched. My favorite childhood player was Jackie Slater. Mr. Slater, could you please stand up? I want to say thank you. I really appreciate everything you did for me. To Hudson Hauck, my offensive line coach at Dallas. I love him and I want to thank him for spending all that extra time helping me become a Hall of Fame player. I'm the fourth Hall of Famer Hudson Houck coached. I don't know how you nominate somebody, but I think he would be a great addition. Other coaches that helped me throughout my career, Ernie Zampese, Norv Turner, Chan Gailey, George Edwards, and Joe Avezzano, I know he's looking down on us also. I'd also like to thank my first head coach, Barry Switzer. I'd also like to thank the scouting department for coming to get me at Sonoma State, Larry Lacewell. I'd also like to thank the training staff, Jim Maurer, Brett Brown, and also the equipment crew, Mike and Buckley. I'd also like to thank Joe Horrigan, and the Hall of Fame staff for making this and helping us plan this weekend. At dinner, he brought up a story about a game I had against the great Reggie White. I have never been dominated like that before in my life. So I got in that weight room and became the strongest man in the NFL. I did it naturally (laughing). All right. What's funny is once I benched 700 pounds, they tested me twice a week for the rest of my career (laughing). My goal was simple, to earn a seven word letter called respect. The respect of my teammates, opponents, and the NFL. Today, my mission is complete. I also played hard, whistle to whistle, to make my opponents submit. And today, I'm submitting to you. I just can't wait to see my buddies. Finally, I just want to say thank you to the Hall of Fame, the Hall of Fame voters, and the city of Canton for letting me be a part of this outstanding fraternity of men. I've been blessed to play the game I love. And remember this, it has never been about me, Larry Allen, but the many, many people that helped me out. As you know, I'm nervous, so if I forgot anybody, I'm sorry, thank you, and God bless.
