Surely the scouting report on #7 was more than "zero power," even if home was the Dome, right?

What's $/WAR these days? Surely Goldy has $80m equivalent left in his bat.

Every player in the secondary played like ass. Why?
Wonder if Acho is talking about Hager. I wouldn't be surprised if it was Boyd though. Did Boyd do the patented "get burned on a double move" last night?

Austin Water Issues Boil Water Notice
I got a big filtering dispenser for the fridge that I put boiled water in once the water cooled. Thought process was that boiling won't remove silt particles that made it through. But if water turbidity is only going to improve from here on out I probably wasted $25.

2018 Houston Texans Season Thread
I don't know that Dez is the answer. What we need is a serious burner they can take the top off a defense. Anybody know if a "Ted Ginn but with better hands" type might be available? I wonder if I'd rather trade for Jordy Nelson over Dez, at least Jordy's been practicing and playing...

Yeah I haven't looked at any metrics but my eyeballs say Yuli is a good glove at first. He's aging but still has those hot corner instincts from his early days.

Austin Water Issues Boil Water Notice
While there are probably several things that probably could have been done differently, I guess I can give credit where it might be due. If reports are accurate about the city no longer being upside down on water production capacity after less than 24 hours of conservation by residents, even though all three plants continue to operate at one-third capacity, that means a single plant operating at 100% capacity can more or less serve the city (let's assume all plants have roughly equal capacities). Credit for the double redundancy.

The properly boiled water is just as safe as commercial bottled. The run on bottled water seems irrational, which, yeah of course it is. I need to go to the store too, need some gallon jugs to store my boiled water.

Gameday heading to Washington State
Wazoo should be a top 10 team but they got completely cheated out of the USC game by shenanigans at the Pac 12 office. Actually calling in from Pac 12 headquarters to overturn one of the clearest targeting calls of all time, FFS that's an all time screwjob.

That's a heck of a win on the road. Still giving up pressure too easily on passing plays, but smarter playcslling and smarter Deshaun is helping neutralize some of that. Short week coming up, let's keep it rolling.

Like Roy O in Game 6, momentum in baseball is quite simply your next starting pitcher. And we got Justin freaking Verlander.

This DOJ investigation into MLB, especially the Dodgers, is getting interesting. They really produced a slide deck rating the activities of five of their Latin America operations employees as "Criminal?" Where's Stringer Bell when you need him to stop idiots from taking notes on a criminal fuckin conspiracy?

I'm the other kind of Indian, but for what it's worth I find the Chief Wahoo logo offensive and good riddance. Do we care who we face? Does home field matter to this team?

Hey look, a winning streak. But jeez that was pathetic in the red zone. Mike Stoops would still be employed if he faced the Texans red zone offense yesterday instead of the Texas red zone offense.
