  1. That is crazy. How many employees is the company overall? 40k+ globally
  2. found out today that my company has lost 19 people to covid. crazy.
  3. im expecting Texas 40ish and ULL 20ish
  4. haha, most people on this board view my posts re LT players with somewhat justified skepticism. i get it. but THIS is different... lol
  5. I have watched every game Hudson has played in since he was a freshman, including 7on7 games. I have only seen him have 2 bad games: his Jr year against Westlake and his Jr year against NorthShore. The Northshore team was just flat out better. He was running for his life from the first snap onward. I can't really blame Hudson for that game. The WL game is really the only one I have seen him make the wrong read and play poorly. He is about as consistent as a player can be. He is a gamer. I expect him to make the transition to UT pretty smoothly due to all the prep work he puts in and all of the 7on7 he has played. But I have been wrong before... Regardless, the kid won't quit, wont give up, he will keep grinding and working. He is going to be special at Texas.
  6. hands over ears LALALALALALALALALALALALALA
  7. im starting to feel like our Dline is getting back to where it used to be!
  8. excuse me? i mean he was fired first. oh nevermind...
  9. i came to the dark side quite a while ago. i voted for W in 2000. By 2002, i was like WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING?
  10. so he is using powers granted to him under "emergency authorization" to keep the public safe, right? i know the answer already but how the fuck does the Texas Supreme Court justify the expansion of executive authority? i do not recognize my old party at all.
  11. rugby-style tackling is pretty much universally taught now. keep your head out of the tackle. attack near hip with near shoulder. it minimizes the cutback and prevents players from getting juked out as much. its a much better technique than the "head across the bow" one that most of us learned growing up.
  12. whats the deal with Republicans and Regeneron? Trump, DeSantis, and now Abbott have all included the specific name in their public announcements. Is Regeneron bankrolling their reelection campaigns? And why is it ok for them to take that drug but not the vaccines? Such a weird and confusing group of dumbasses...
  13. I dont know who is better right now. And let me make it clear, i want the best QB for Texas to play, whether it is now, in the near term or long term. I just want Texas to win. That said, I think the narrative about Hudson being a practice player, having poor pocket awareness, poor ball protection, or not being a pressure player could not be more wrong. Other than pure arm talent, you literally highlighted the things he actually does best. As someone who has watched every game in person that he has played since his freshman year at LT, the kid is the epitome of a pressure player. He got better in the bigger games at LT and against the better opponents. I never saw him get nervous or shy away from the big stage. He handled it all in stride and stepped up even more when he was needed to make plays. He is a plus athlete with an elite arm. He does all of the little things (pocket awareness, ball protection, going through his reads) effortlessly. He does not have happy feet in the pocket. He moves his feet the way he has been taught by the very best QB coaches in the nation so he is always in an athletic stance and ready to deliver the ball. And those "strip sacks" in the spring game, probably would have actually been Hudson ripping off a 10 or 20 yard run instead. There is still a lot that he needs to show at this level. I get that. I am as interested as anyone else to see if he can do it. If he doesnt or isnt ready, then I have no doubt that Casey will be fine. But as prospects, they dont compare. If Hudson adjusts and shows he can do it on this level, he will most likely run away with this competition. And I know that is a big "IF." I hope he can, but again, if not, then I hope Casey steps up and does great things in this offense. I am sick of losing and while it would be fun to have a kid that I coached in 7s be the starting QB, it would be even more fun to win games and beat the hell outta OU.
  14. understood. i agree with what he is saying and he is an absolutely brilliant person.
  15. uhhh thats funny. i am not saying he is wrong about anything but this kid is the son of one of our friends. he is a brilliant person (plan II / EE) but is a consultant that works on SW/EE stuff. He is not a doctor or have an expertise in pandemics or vaccines. Again, Im not saying he is wrong about anything, just good to have context when considering sources.
  16. i will do whatever it takes to kick the shit outta this virus but i have to say after tasting normal life again - FUCK ALL YALL ANTI-VAXXERS! but goddamn im glad they didnt get to freeride into herd immunity like so many planned. fuck around and shut down our economy again, it will permanently destroy the RNC and Fox News.- and thats why both have changed their tune as of yesterday. as for others - i found out some of my extended family, democrats, had not been vaxxed. one of the cousins used to come stay at our house for the summer. he wanted to come this summer but was not vaxxed. we made it a requirement to come. he got vaxxed and then came down. and then the other 6 members of his family got their first shot. im just like goddammit people.
  17. no, not at all. i thought it was funny. and i did say with all due respect so i can say whatever i want after that and you cant take offense.
  18. With all due respect, Who the fuck are you? and, go fuck yourself. Thank you. Have a nice day.
  19. its all just theater. they dont actually want to stop illegal immigration for the reasons posted above. its just theater for the stupid.
  20. well that and josh thompson said it was between himself and jake as the fastest on the team. i wish him the best in his transfer.
  21. eh, i think last year's team was better than this year's team will be. but we didnt handle covid well and losing 2 QBs throughout the season did not help come playoff time. Lots of big people coming up in the Frosh and Soph classes.
