Game Week 13: Kentucky at Texas
And to bring it back to the game, met several UK fans near campus. Nice folks. I made sure to give them directions to the stadium.

Crossed out schools I've road-tripped to watch UT. (And it's all about me.) Need new places to visit!

FINAL 2024 CFB polls/rankings - Texas #3/ #4 /#3 (CFP/AP/Coaches)
Of course not. That means we would have won the SEC Championship and are automatic qualifiers.

Tell Me About Texas a&m
There's a question mark, but this is actually true. HS friend was in corp. He didn't play any instrument but they had him in the band carrying a tuba and pretending to play.

We need Ted Cruz to attend.

Game Week 13: Kentucky at Texas
Keeneland is great. The fall season is in October so hopefully, we play in Lexington then. Speaking of, what is the holdup with the SEC waiting so long to release schedules?

Game Week 13: Kentucky at Texas
My daughter (no pics) went to UK and lives in Lexington. She works in the thoroughbred racing industry, so she didn't go to UT although accepted. Still a UT fan, though. Anywho, she says American and Delta have both added non-stop LEX-AUS flights. She usually wears a TEXAS hat while at horse auctions and farms and most people she meets say they are coming to Austin for the game. All this to say Kentucky does care and should have a decent turnout. But no one is predicting a UK victory, which terrifies me. 😳

The cheapest tickets are in UT sections. Not sure what that tells me.

Game Week 10, Texas at Arkansas
Yes I'm old. The SWC was fun in the 60's and early 70's. But TV changed the landscape of college football. Oh, and fuck the piggies. Lots of hate reserved for them.

Weather looks good. Was worried about cold rain which NW Ark can have this time of year. Nice weather, early start, we smoke them by 3 TDs.

Early Voting Tracker- Elections Lab
How do they break this out by party registration in Texas? There is no party registration. Is it based on voting in primaries?

2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.
For those waiting in long voting lines in Travis County, don't you check https://votetravis.gov/current-election-information/current-election/ before going to the polls? Shows wait times. I saw the long line at Bee Caves Randalls so went to the South Austin Rec Center. In and out in 10 minutes.

Damn. One guy on the white helmet team (Texas?) is playing without a helmet.

Call Your Shot - Final Reg Season Record
So, what? Do they use two crayons instead of one to circle the game? It would always be their biggest game no matter how many losses they had.

The Germany Thread
Thanks @squib and @Ghost of LL for the detailed recommendations. Just returned. Great time but too short of a trip. The marathon took up a good chunk of the time in Berlin. But we managed to hit up Scheer's Schnitzel and Markthalle Neun by ESG, a few museums, and Hitler's bunker, among other places. My favorite was Checkpoint Charlie. Oktoberfest was fun as always.

I'm going to Checkpoint Charlie, dammit! 😄

And they have Miami as 3 seed and Utah 4 seed in the Quarterfinals section. But it's flipped in the 1st Round section where they show who first-round winners play next. Get your shit together, CBS.
