  1. Herr Brown was apparently also the inspiration for the Cuero mascot. These Germans coming over to Texas must have just loved their first few summers. My mom's side is out of New Braunfels. There's at least one example in my family line of a spouse saying "fuck this heat, I'm going back to Deutschland."
  2. I think announcing to the world that your son is the starting QB before he even sees a practice does wonders for your QB depth. I keep seeing that he really cares about the kids, but I think he seems to just care about the talented ones. I get it, college football is a ruthless business and you better win, but it'd be nice if he would just shut up about how it's all for the kids. It's like the bible beater that always tells you how religious he is, right until he rips you off.
  3. I was at Conroe when he was at McCullough and both of those teams were really good. Back then in the pre game warmups you could dunk all you wanted so both teams would put on a show, especially for big rivalry games. Our student section was ragging lance pretty badly so he proceeded to do a one hand tomahawk while looking right at us and flipping us off. I've liked him ever since then. Seemed like a good guy.
  4. According to the Chicago Manual of Style, an ellipsis should have spaces between each dot. To do otherwise is an abomination to the language and you are now my sworn enemy.
  5. I liked her reaction when they asked if she was a cop in real life. Oh hell no, or something along those lines.
  6. The plaintiff's psychiatrist on the stand revealing clearly privileged information about his patient got me. I'm impressed at what a genuinely good guy the main character was.
  7. A lot of brokered CDs have fdic insurance. They should say it on the terms as it's a pretty big deal, especially lately.
  8. Really enjoying "from" so far but it's definitely got a Lost feel to it.
  9. Was this the Moore skank?
  10. I lived in Denver in the 90s (i.e. the last time cu was worth a shit) and also attended the 2001 big 12 championship game. While my disdain will never rise to Sooner levels, I can manage a little schadenfreude over the current state of their program.
  11. Greg Davis nods approvingly at this ratio. 0 kickers? Didn't his kicker portal to Boulder with him?
  12. From the article -"a Scottish judge rubbished his claims, and confirmed he is in fact the US-born fugitive." I never knew rubbish could be a verb. I will start using it now. I hereby declare your silly internet claims rubbished.
  13. Not disagreeing with you, just pointing out how truly mammoth an undertaking this will be, even in the brave new world of the portal. And anyone that doesn't trust ctj or is otherwise hesitant to take his bet, I'll happily offer the same terms. They'll be pretty bad.
  14. I was in Boulder touring the campus with my son last summer. We went by Folsom field and happened to see a few football players walking around and my initial thought was "these are D1 athletes?". I'm no ctj on the talent scouting front but these guys looked like really small lineman or really fat linebackers. Let's just say I'm not stunned at the roster needing some fine tuning.
  15. The day after signing day I'd tell my mom I couldn't take the bus home because I had to go to the county library after school, then walk to the library after school just to look at the AAS 55. Ok, I just looked it up and it was only .4 miles but still. This was in 81 or 82 and even my young mind could tell there was a shitload of OU, SMU, TCU and Aggy on that list and not much Texas. I just figured we were Texas and it was our God given right to always be good, we didn't need no stinkin' blue chips
  16. In 1995 I was excited after reviewing the Dallas Morning News top 100 when I saw we got a RB out of California who was ranked somewhere in the 80s or 90s. Then I came back down to earth when I saw that we missed out on the real prize out of California that year, a RB ranked in the 30s named Sirr.
  17. I thought this was a typo, but then realized this is probably what the aggy equestrian team called him.
  18. Arthur Grand Technologies, formerly known as Arthur Grand Dragon Tech until a bunch of snowflake consultants suggested the name be shortened.
  19. A huge thank you for doing this. And if I ever move back to Texas and buy a home, I'll definitely give you a call.
  20. Headline says they speak in unintelligible grunts, but I could clearly hear a "hullabalew canek canek".
  21. Well, apparently my back of the envelope calculations were off for top 4 if UConn beat SDSU. Apologies to anyone that got their hopes up/ gave up based on that.
