  1. (2) the creation of a privatized business entity to better monetize the league’s assets (Big Ten Enterprises); What this actually means is that the PE boys have found a way they believe will increase the likelihood to achieve their expected return of investment while minimizing the risk. If you have unlimited control over this moneymaking venture, that is less susceptible to the whims of television contracts with the future unknown as to how media ad revenue will be generated.
  2. So, every single person on the face of the earth hates Vegas? That must have been quite the task to find an organization so vast that it literally spoke to everyone on Planet Earth to ascertain their opinion on the merits of Las Vegas. The diversity of restaurants (non-touristy) is very impressive. As are the shows. If you have not been inside the Sphere, it is definitely worth the experience. Try a restaurant called "Sinatra" inside Encore. Quite good. Desert golf. A number of Cirque shows. A number of the spas are excellent. And for those who gamble (except for single deck blackjack, I don't) there is that too. So, you are correct ... if you take away all of the entertainment options and gambling ... it is just like the plastic shitshow built by Jughead.
  3. All you Surly assholes give your kids (no matter their age) a call today/tonight and tell them you love them. That you were simply thinking about them and want them to know how important they are to you. I called my son today and had a long talk with him. We are just now beginning to learn so much more about mental health issues and the biology in the brain. Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, combined with certain type of ketamine infusions have shown promise in addressing some symptoms of CTE, depression and other mental health issues. Research is on-going about micro-implants in certain parts of the brain to regulate electrical pulses and blood flow. Whatever the mental health issue is, the reality is they can no longer simply be talked out combined with traditional pharmaceutical intervention. Lecture over. Go give your kids a hug, assholes. Oh...here is an interesting article on some of these treatment regimens. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11205489/
  4. Vandy's version of two in the pink ... ?
  5. Obligatory ... was Georgia even a state then? (from a fellow Olds)
  6. From a brisk North Dallas ... TEXAS !!!
  7. well ... shit ... 9 years ago tonight, I joined a club in which no parent should ever have to belong. Perhaps writing for me is cathartic. Go hug your child and tell them you love them today. https://adadsjourneywitheatingdisorders.home.blog/2025/10/30/nine-years-beyond-the-darkest-night-grief-truth-and-hope-for-greater-tomorrows/
  8. I have read that apparently, Kelly's contract has a duty to mitigate clause. If that is accurate, Kelly is required to take reasonable efforts to obtain employment elsewhere. Now, does this mean a comparable head coaching position, a coordinator's position? In any event, he just can't sit on his ass doing nothing. Also, this past June, the Supreme Court of Louisiana issued a ruling that Orgeron's wife (he filed for divorce) is entitled to 50% of Orgeron's liquidated damages received under his employment agreements with LSU. Her portion? $8,134,500! YIKES. Here is the opinion: https://www.lasc.org/opinions/2025/24-0676.C.OPN.pdf
  9. I believe! The annexation of fucking Puerto Rico!
  10. THAT'S IT! YOU KNOW OF COURSE SIRRAH, THIS MEANS WAR ! So Huckle ... Last night, I aggressively buggered your mom in the arse then wiped my rather prodigious cock not just on her drapes but on your pillow before I left! Tonight I am taking her out for a nice seafood dinner and never call her again! Your name shall figure prominently on Beuregarde's signage this week.
  11. From (since Thursday night) ... Fonda San Miguel, to Phoebe's Diner, to Terry Black's, to the Elephant Room, to Swift's Attic ... TEXAS!!
  12. I've got some mad respect for Holly Rowe. Cancer did just about everything it could to take her but she fought it and was very open and public with her struggles. HUGE amount of courage.
  13. This is Surly after all ... dude... your mom is kinda ... fit. Forgive me.
  14. A Yellow Jacket holding a hockey stick?
  15. From far North Dallas, the shirt says it all ... TEXAS !
  16. Gonna try to make it. If so, you will recognize me because I am bringing this wood-headed burnt orange colored dog with me.
  17. It seems like for many people, if Texas wins a game against another helmet program or in the CFP or against a turditional rival ... it is NOT a big game. IF Texas loses that game ... it is a big game. Bunch of pre-Madonnas in here.
  18. So, the guy who built that momentum. The guy who led us to the past few seasons. The guy who has improved recruiting. The guy who led Texas to the playoffs the last two seasons. ... is now in over his head? At what point did he reach that low point? Now, this season is far below expectations and to be blunt, this is not a championship caliber team. We get that. Our offensive line looks like a bunch of dancing bears on roller skates. Our running backs are either perpetually injured or are as average as everyday wash. It's easy to be a good coach when the winds are calm, the ocean is tame and you are basking in the sun. Well, the storm is coming and this program could be dashed against the rocks. What Sark does in this off-season will define his coaching legacy. He will either rectify matters, make tough decisions, and do what it takes to build a championship team ... or he will become just one more former Texas coach who fails at whatever other school he goes to after receiving his walking papers here.
  19. Technically, shouldn't that be phrased, "All Y'all?" Since presumably you are referring to more than one person?
  20. Dude... that's a Floriduh thing.
