  1. We have a proven track record of recruiting running backs who fumble. It is crazy how we are able to identify, recruit, and sign running backs who can carry on the tradition.
  2. (1) ✅ 2023, 2024, 2025 (2) ❌ : 3 years ago, 2022, he was in high school. (3) Texas vs Washington, January 1st, 2024 (Less than two years ago, but two seasons ago) . . . Baxter fumbled. Apparently he was having a good game, but I only remember his fumbling away the game. 9 carries, 64 yards 1 TD 2 receptions, 39 yards 1 Fumble: 2nd play of the drive after Washington went up 28-21, Baxter fumbled. Washington scored a FG and then Texas went 3 and out. After fumbling, Baxter had one more touch for the rest of the 2nd half. A 3 yard run. Perhaps I would have remembered his running if he hadn’t fumbled away our season.
  3. It has been mentioned, but there should be a stat of average negative yards the Longhorns give up when nobler doesn’t just fair catch the ball. Ummm… Cedric Baxter was a high school senior 3 years ago and I think that he was injured for a large part of that season. Baxter was injured almost his entire freshman season, but played and was largely ineffective. Baxter was injured all last season. Baxter has been largely ineffective since trying to return from injury this season. There may be a theme here.
  4. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46583863/titans-fire-coach-brian-callahan-1-5-start-2025 GUNNAR HELM SHOULD STARTS!!
  5. +1 rep for using the adverb. It is so refreshing to see. 🙏 1) I had never heard of RJ Young. 2) As soon as the video started with fake laughter for more than 1/2 of a second, I moved forward 4 to 5 minutes. 3) After 2 seconds, I hit stop and clicked to see how many views his site has received. Surprisingly he has accumulated nearly 50 million views. I don’t know how these people are so bad at what they do and yet can make a living from producing scripted & poorly acted crap, but it beats working. I don’t like to stereotype, but I’m really fucking good at it. From the first time I saw a still image of Conner Stroh, I felt that he was being recruited because we couldn’t get tackling dummies that big from the walk-on market, but that he would never be able to move quickly enough and with enough balance to be anything other than a practice player. Unfortunately #1: I was 100% correct. Unfortunately #2: The coaches aren’t as good at stereotyping as I am. As I always say, I’m sure that Conner is giving it his best effort and is a wonderful guy, but he is just not now, nor do so believe will ever be, good enough to play at this level.
  6. “Thier, Thire, Thiy’re“ Love it when Mexican ⚽️ fans feel doom and gloom.
  7. Texas occupies the North side of the Cotton Bowl. 🤘
  8. U20 World Cup 🇨🇴 Colombia 3 - 2 Spain 🇪🇸 🇦🇷 Argentina 2 - 0 México 🇲🇽 Argentina played like the Italian cyclists from “Breaking Away”. They are talented and cheap shot fuckers and used two challenges in the last few minutes of the match to get two different Mexicans sent off even though the game was over. Mexico is always Argentina’s bitch, but the Argentine manager wanted to remind them in the most jackass way. If it weren’t against México, I would be embarrassed for my adopted country. But since it’s México… I FUCKING LOVED IT!! 😎🇦🇷⚽️
  9. Just so everyone’s clear, it’s been Saturday in Toronto for over an hour.
  10. I thought that that was a coach fielding the wild throw from the outfield. …it was the pitcher.
  11. What a fucking throw!!
  12. Pitch #2 was definitely a strike.
  13. Adoro Jasmine Paolini. 1 , 3 , 4 , 2
  14. Weston apparently is finally taking his fitness seriously. It would be nice if players could take their fitness seriously from a young age, but so many don’t.
  15. I was wondering why Pochettino almost made out with the Ecuadorean manager, but it’s because they have probably kissed many times before. The grossest part of playing 6 v 6 fútbol with a group of Argies from 2008-2009 was that after kissing everyone on the cheek before we played… …before we left, when we were all sweaty and gross, we had to go through and cheek-to-cheek with the kiss sound to every one of the other 11 guys who played. Besos are just part of the culture there. Show up for my dentist appointment and Dr. Pettiti has me give her a beso before I go sit in the patient’s chair and then she instructs me with a “Dame un beso.” as she hurries me out of the room so she can take her next patient.
  16. Why has Pochettino been playing video games all match? He should be paying attention to the team!
  17. They are without their best player (Chelsea’s Caicedo) and another 1 or 2 of their starters. Maybe they are adjusting to their personnel. The USMNT score started with winning a ball on the offensive side of midfield and then sending the ball to an offsides Tillman on the right wing. Tillman then crossed the ball into Balogun, who was making a run toward the near post from the edge of the box with a defender on his back. Balogun kind of bundles (bungles?) the ball into off the near post. Replay showed that Tillman may have been onside by a blade of grass, but they definitely didn’t show the technology that shows how much of the defender was keeping Tillman onsides.
  18. McKenzie in mid-qualifying form! Has McKenzie ever played well for the USA? Tillman was off. 😁
  19. How was that not offsides on Tillman? Balo!
  20. ECU’s Valencia looks like the stocky younger half-brother of DaMarcus Beasley.
  21. There should have been a body slam foul called on ECU just outside the box, but the foul against the USA that stopped play was NOT a foul.
  22. So you’re saying… WE ARE THE STANDARD!
  23. We have been close several times. I much rather see us play like this than how we have most of the last 20 months.
