  1. And for those on the guitar thread, it doesn’t look like they were able to get my guitar loaded on this plane (despite 15 hours of time). So I will have to deal with that.

    I’m sure it is “lost” and in an SFO baggage guys collection. I should have put a tracker in the box.

  2. Weren’t there weather issues in San Francisco?

    The flight from AUS to SFO was delayed due to weather in cali. That caused me to miss my SFO to SIN connection. I had to stay overnight in SFO and catch the SIN flight in the morning.

    The weather was fine today. The delay was because they were “cleaning” the plane. And then because they moved it to a new gate. And then because they needed to “clean” it again.

    Because of the missed connection I lost my economy plus window seat and am now in a middle (so that is nice…). I’m 6’3”, 300, so middle seats are special.

    Both dudes next to me are asleep and I need to pee like a racehorse. 570b0f934fbcc73b3e269ab7a60b37be.jpg
    Only 5 more hours to go…
  3. Perry Minton . . . my wife went to HS with him and half of you degenerates.  She seems to think he was fairly unremarkable, but certainly not stupid.  I knew his Dad through one of the MBFC associates I dated, and I barely remember Perry hanging around trying to score beer in the "Red Room".  
    I would not want to be on the other side of the courtroom from Roy, Charlie Burton, John Foster, or Rip Collins, that's for sure.  Those guys were legal animals.  If Perry inherited half his Dad's skills, he probably did what he could for Beard, bad spelling and the vapors notwithstanding.

    Your wife and I went to HS together then…

    Perry was a good guy, but born on 3rd base for lawyering.
  4. Life advice: never fly United (or American).

    100% of flights from and in USA have been delayed.

    I had to stay last night in SFO.

    As an interesting note, 0% of my flights outside of the USA where delayed on this trip. Even in Medellin, Colombia it was on time.

    USA!

  5. Next year will almost certainly be an all new staff with all new players and a full scale rebuild. That being said, RT needs to convince the current roster to buy in and go all out for just 3 more months, and then they can quit/transfer/go pro. This team has the talent and are fully capable of making a deep run in this tournament. After this season, it’s likely the program will be down for a while, so go out with a bang

     

    I think it will be more like the Mike Wacker season…
  6. If you would have told me pre-game that we would have a 100+ yard receiver and I had to guess who it would be, Casey Cain would have been my 7th guess. He may be slow for a WR, but he was one of the only reliable WR's that could catch the ball tonight. In fact, I believe he caught every ball that hit his hands. If Texas had won, Cain would have been in contention for the most unlikely bowl game MVP since Michael Dickson. Alas...

    I just couldn’t believe how slow he was. Like lineman speed. I thought he was a track guy in HS?
  7. How about a modified Lakers trade:

    Lakers get:
    McDermott
    Richardson
    Hield
    Turner

    Spurs get:
    Westbrook
    2027 1st unprotected

    Pacers get:
    Beverley
    Nunn
    2029 1st unprotected

    Lakers:
    Shooters, depth, 3 and D

    Spurs:
    A possible great 1st, get off a year of McDermott money. They can just release Russ. Net loss of money over 2 years isn’t that much.

    Pacers
    Get off a year of Hield at 20m. Possible great 1st.

    We won. WTF do you want? A loss? 

    It is College Basketball. Our ex-coach was just hit with a felony charge. The boys played. The interim won.
