  1. Elvis Andrus is going to do pre and post for the new channel. https://x.com/Rangers/status/1884697069530611849
  2. I was about to say this game might end scoreless since no one has the ability to hold onto a wide open pass and do something with it. Gakpo on a penalty that I don't get but I'll take it.
  3. Yeah but the "shake things up" only is until it directly affects them.
  4. There's no easy way to do it, man.. Lord knows I didn't handle the entire situation well with my kids. I'm sure you did your best. Your old man would agree with that.
  5. I got this in my inbox this morning: https://www.mlb.com/rangers/schedule/programming?partnerId=it-20250128-12433331-tex-1-A&utm_id=it-20250128-12433331-tex-1-A It says Spectrum will be 448. DirecTV 677. U-Verse (that still exists?) 1752. DirecTV looks like the FSN/Bally's auxiliary channel. It also says Victory+ will allow users to authenticate their cable and satellite accounts to access the streaming content. First OTA game on CW33 will be the Friday, March 28th game against Boston.
  6. Do I get to declare "prima nocta" or is that only for the oligarchs?
  7. Susie is great but the real treat is Luke Kirby. I don't want to give away his character but he does a fantastic job.
  8. 15 OTA games according to Evan Grant on CW33 in Dallas and other channels in Texas. He said in a reply that YouTube TV could be a deal they're working on but it's just not part of the announced deal that's already been hammered out.
  9. The soft bigotry of low expectations.
  10. Hey, let's all give our ledge leader a kind word on his Daily Texan thread.
  11. I'm sorry for your loss, Brisket. We're coming up on 10 years this May that mdleast and I lost our dad to cancer. I miss the talks we would have sitting on his front porch and the wisdom he would try to impart on me even if I wasn't ready or open to listen. I don't think I really felt like an adult until my dad passed. I realized I was on my own on how to be a man and a dad. What I wouldn't give to get to have another talk with him and catch him up on the past 10 years. Please give yourself time to grieve. There's a strange rush of planning and getting affairs in order that sometimes you just need to sit down and have a good cry about it.
  12. Honestly, I was shocked they didn't do a forced return to office or you're let go. I feel that's not legal but when has that stopped him. I guess this is an easier way to get rid of the people who aren't loyalists and then either replace them with a loyalist who can root out others from the inside or simply eliminate the position.
  13. Coming to the Federal Government, buyouts to shrink staff. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/28/trump-buyouts-federal-workers.html
  14. This is the Stephen Miller strategy. Do something outrageous like try to repeal by executive order a constitutional amendment, wait for a Federal judge to halt the order, kick the case around until you get a Trump favorable judge or ultimately get it before the Supreme Court and roll the dice on ruling on your unconstitutional power grab.
  15. We might need a gif of Childish Gambino but with "Trump's" added to "This is America".
  16. Yeah but what price can you put on American Exceptionalism? I mean the giant body of water that's out there is ours. We claim it. It's our manifest destiny. I think what someone said upthread about drilling rights to the Gulf is the real reason for this.
  17. Because I doubt Trump has zero idea about any of this. This is Stephen Miller and others putting the EOs in front of him. Trump doesn't have the attention span to do all this. He just signs shit because it shows him doing something.
  18. We've reached the unintended consequences portion of the first 100 days. I say unintended because Trump isn't running this show.
  19. We need to do an over/under for how many months the press secretary stays in her job. I think 6 months is a good starting point.
  20. The only Gordo segment lost was Gordo's Corner. The David Moore segment/sports jerk around 9:35 segment is now at 6:50. They moved up the 8:55 guest segment (Razor and Brian Jones) to 6:55/7:55. Gordo said on Twitch that he may look at killing the replay but I doubt that happens because it's sponsored and even if it were killed off, it would be another sports segment. It wouldn't be a mini-Corner. He's not doing back to back segments. I'd imagine when the NFL season is fully dead, we'll get more Gordo's Corner type segments. Or we won't and that's not great but such is life. The daily bitching on Reddit is funny. It's like Jake and Dan leaving all over again on that forum. I'm not sad we lost the monthly Jub red dirt music segment that used to be the Biggest Show.
  21. No, that's FORTH WORTH. I went by the Fiesta this morning and the day laborers were there waiting for work. I doubt those sites are going to find able bodied white men just raring to do a full day of house building.
  22. Soccer in the UK utilizes goal line technology. If the ball crosses completely past the goal line in any way, even mid-air, it is scored a goal. The ref is buzzed on the decision and the goal is awarded. The replay will show that the ball was completely over the line. How we can't do something similar with a ball fully chipped is beyond me. We shouldn't leave it up to the human element when we have ample technology. It doesn't need to go to NBA level did a fingertip graze the ball level but it can be something pretty easy and not very time consuming.
