    His Holy Weirdness is going on tour next year. I have 4 tickets to the San Diego show. woohoo!
  3. I mean, that's fine. You should remain skeptical of the coach... ALWAYS. Sark could fall off the wagon; he could get an ego and fuck everything up; he could sit on his laurels; the game could pass him by and he doesn't adjust. There's many, many ways to fall, and it's not up to us to make excuses for coaches when they do, nor is it our job to support the coach above and beyond the needs of the school and team. There's a difference between wanting a coach to succeed and expecting them to, and even further distance between expecting them to succeed and making excuses for them when they don't. It's that latter tendency that Strong cured me of. I was the WORST at that, and for a long time.
  4. And to be honest, it took a couple of years of Chuck Strong before I really woke up.
  5. I mean, it IS a down year. And next year, and the next, and after that...
  6. And just think: They actually consider themselves to be one of the tough games on our schedule.
  7. i don't know what y'all are seeing that I'm missing there
  8. definitely triggered by these posts but man... yeah
  9. In retrospect, it could have been so much more if not for TI doing everything possible to sink it. 1. Even though it had a 16-bit CPU, they were terrified it would cannibalize minicomputer sales, so they gave it a really shitty bus 2. Were actively hostile to 3rd party development, even to the point of using an intermediary bytecode generated by the BASIC interpreter that then had to be re-interpreted by a secret hardware chip into machine code, to prevent reverse-engineering; refusing to allow developers to use Assembly until it was way too late, etc. So many things it Might Have Been if not for bad management, kinda like Texas football in the decade before Sark showed up.
  10. Florida has talent, supposedly, and would actually be decent if they could just pull the trigger on Ol Yeller there. And at least two MSU DBs ended up taking themselves out of the game by trying to head-spear Ricky.
  11. I get this. I'm coming to the game this week, mostly so my daughter can see her cousin, but also to see the game. I was there the last time we played klan aggy, and we won that game, too.
  12. That's a beautiful pool and yard. What's in the flask, Egg? Magic potion?
  13. Would this mean that Mack did Diaz wrong, too?
  14. 9 with a bunch of partners every day of the week and twice on Sunday. points at wife for proof In other news, my daughter's friend's mom is just too pure for this world. The classic D&D 18 INT and 5 WIS character. How a woman can be so smart, in her 50s, and so... well. Lemme explain. Today, in church, Jane and Sharon announced that they were celebrating their 10th official anniversary that day, and 35 years of being together. And afterwards, said lady asks me, "So... they are roommates?" I mean technically, yes, they are also roommates...
  15. Probably? Bitch should've had at least 3 -- 2008, 2001, and 2005. And 2009 too, if he'd had an OL with any talent.
