    Didn’t realize that Mirra had jumped up to the 33 ranking. Stearns is ranked 65th.

    Gio Reyna played in Nottingham’ 2 Premier League matches before today’s match. You kind of missed his debut.

    Just randomly scrolled across this last night.

    Look what I just found… Yesterday’s post from Dallas, Texas. Perhaps he’s training at SMU. (Or T-Bar M) He’s been out for a bit. I spotted him at the Trader Joe’s @ Walnut Hill & Central Expressway. (3 miles straight up Central from SMU’s courts (the old Mrs. Baird’s Bread bakery). Maybe he/his parents have a tax shelter house in Preston Hollow.

    I hope that he’s been watching a lot of film of deep-lying midfielders who complete forward passes to attacking players that put them in dangerous positions. He’s had about a year off to actually learn a fundamental skill that he didn’t possess.

    Think that I just passed Jenson Brooksby coming out of a Dallas Trader Joe’s as I was walking in. Don’t think that that makes sense, but it was his doppelgänger if it wasn’t him, because he looked exactly like him.

    I feel like PSG has 3 to 3 1/2 month before they become completely irrelevant.

    Scrolled past a similar reminder on IG today. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C2YZTL9vzCM/?igsh=MTAzeWkzN2QwajQxMw==

    Or Rice. Baseball academic school.

    This map was made by someone who has obviously never stepped foot in the state of Tennessee. Even Vanderbilt students who were born and raised in the state of Tennessee pull for the Vols. At least in football (baseball may be a different story), there is 0% of the state that pulls for the Commodores.

    Who are Texas’ TOP 5 Rivalries? 1) OU 2) Arkansas 3) A&M (I guess) 4) SMU ? 5) Rice / Baylor ? I’m stumped after the Top 3, because Kansas has only been basketball, TCU doesn’t register, Nebraska was only for about 15 to 20 years, and it was really one-sided, but it did also encompass women’s volleyball. LSU has never been what it could be. Just wondering who makes the TOP FIVE.

    In 5th grade, I was in Beginning Band. 1) Had a friend who was doing French Horn AND his left hand was in a soft cast from surgery or breaking it… ?? Anyway, it was a perfect mute cone that he had for the first 3 months of school, or so. 2) We spent more time listening to the teacher’s repetitive lecture than we did practicing. Band Master Mario Foster’s favorite sayings: A) “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.” B) “You hear me, but you do not listen.” C) “[Random Student]! If you don’t stop talking, I’m going to plant my foot so far up your ass that we’re going to have to go to Nurse Eichenwald’s office to have it removed!” I was snare drum and we were in the back of the room. We spent so much time listening to him rant that I frequently did homework for the next class because the snare was a desk and the music stand was a blinder.

    I use “shat” for the simple past of “to shit”. I also probably still use “shat” for the past participle of “to shit” when former the present perfect, past perfect, future perfect, but not when converting the verb “shit” into an adjective like most verbs. I just use “shit” as the adjective.

    Probably taking class field trips to Target.

    I saw this game his second year and was pulling for the Broncos. A friend wasn’t feeling well and so I took his 7 1/2 year-old son to the game, so I was hoping for a home win for the kid. Didn’t happen. Instead, young Patricio Mahomes led his team to victory. ✌️ It happens… …a lot.

    New Orleans is such a repulsive shit hole. 😂 You do make it sizzle just like the last time I was there. I couldn’t wait to get our group together and get the fuck out of that hell hole. Yeah Mardi Gras!! (Or any number of days out of each year.)

    ESPN’s photo of Chip wasn’t quite so flattering. Just so flattering.

    Could you provide photos of these chicken fried steaks of which you speak? Photos of the sides would be optional.

    Can that girl be hired to work with 0.5 to 2.0 lbs of mine to improve muscle? She could be a wonderful personal trainer.

    Nope. Got distracted, lost sight of why I wanted to move there in the first place (write sitcoms), had no mentor and no focus and went to Argentina to take Spanish for two months in mid-late 2007. Seven-and-a-half years later, I moved back to the USA full time after taking Spanish, teaching English, giving city tours, running a small tour company, and picking up 🇦🇷 citizenship among other things. That said, my roommate on this wedding cruise/yachting trip in the Virgin Islands a few weeks ago was a middle school/high school buddy who is an Academy Award nominated documentarian and was heading back to LA before going to Sundance at the end of the week. Also on the wedding ship was the college suite mate of the groom who flew in from filming his Netflix (or Amazon?) series that he’s been doing for a few years. And a former roommate/Texas Ex from early in my time in LA has been a script supervisor, predominantly for kids shows, for over 20 years now.

    Correct! But I was already SAG after getting SAG Vouchers 2 out of the 4 days I was “Blue Collar Guy with Blue Collar Car” in the big Nicolas Cage jumping a flatbed tow truck by using its ramp up on the bridge over the Port of LA to get away from the cops as he was stealing his last car in “Gone In 60 Seconds” because I offered to keep the cooler of drinks for the extras up on the bridge in the back seat of my car. Then I got my 3rd voucher by hitting up my high school buddy’s suite mate from sophomore year at Princeton who cast me as an extra in an mental hospital in a scene from the cable show that he and his brother wrote & directed. Ahhhh… the glamour of Hollywood!
