  1. Dude, we all assumed you have been taking crazy pills.
  2. Below the hard deck doesn't count.
  3. I really want to give Arteta the time and support he needs, but it sure feels like he has completely lost the club.
  4. This is one of my favorite movies, Christmas or otherwise. My least favorite part is the anti-Americanism bit with Billy Bob Thornton in the smarmy POTUS role, though I loved Natalie's throwaway line "...there was a fire" when explaining the kiss.
  5. I cannot imagine Harden taking a backseat to Luka, and I don't want Luka taking a backseat to anyone. No thanks.
  6. It's inexcusable to have a finale depend on competent cab drivers. If driving is absolutely needed, they should be doing it themselves in vehicles that are in top working condition and that are easy to operate. It's even more inexcusable to include a needle in a haystack challenge, made even more egregious by placing it early in the leg. What the fuck? Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. I'm sure I'll still watch the next season, but boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
  7. I have no connection to CDC or anyone else associated with UT athletics. I just happen to appreciate the scope of the job that we entrusted to him, and believe that he is far better equipped to do it well than the pretenders, interims, and burnouts that got us here. When things aren't going well, it's a thankless job. I'm a firm believer in stability and patience, but I can appreciate that the latter is in very short supply around here. I want what everyone else wants, but I appear to be in the minority regarding the best way to get there.
  8. Is it not within the realm of possibility that CDC was hopeful that he wouldn't need to endorse Herman at all? Sometimes Plan A doesn't work out, and money can't buy what you want. Herman being on the sidelines on 9/21 is only a fuck up if CDC did or didn't do something that prevented the best long term coaching option from taking the job. Firing Herman without that option locked up would be asinine, as we would then be in a position where we might be forced to settle for someone considerably worse. And that assumes that the money needed to get rid of Herman is unconditionally available regardless of whether a replacement has been secured. Look on the bright side. A tepid endorsement gives us all hope that it was merely lip service, and not an indication that CDC actually believes that Herman is the answer.
  9. There is a whole lot of dumb in this thread, or at least some extreme gullibility. CDC is doing exactly what he needs to do to limit damage caused by uncertainty while continuing to work toward ensuring that the future of the program ends up in the best possible hands. Stop hanging on every fucking word he releases for public consumption, and act like this isn't the first time that you have heard AD-speak. CDC is not stupid. He knows what is at stake. He is as unhappy with the level of performance as any of us. If the best possible coaching change could have happened by now, it would have. Shove your unrealistic expectations up your ass and trust the man to do his job.
  10. So the Smoke a Bowl?
  11. My personal favorite Longhorn logo.
  12. My preferences for who wins, listed in order: Urban Meyer The ghost of Alex Trebek Blonds due to some obscure technicality Hung and Chee Beards Charla and Mirna Natural disaster that cancels the race with no winner . . . . . . . . . . Boyfriends
  13. While I don't like the alliance crap as a whole, I was actually okay with it in this instance. It was nice to see one of the teams who benefitted from it on numerous occasions experience it from the other side. Those were some very sour grapes that DeAngelo was eating. That makes me even more okay with the outcome. They should have gone home on the sauerkraut leg anyway. As long as the boyfriends don't win, I'll be happy with the outcome.
  14. It puts him on the clock...according to this and other threads, he is already on 114 of them, so what is one more?
  15. I miss Wally Pryor
  16. You don't need tapa to upload photos any longer. You don't even have to save them to file. Just do a screen grab, draw a dick, and paste.
  17. RIP Coach Akers. 🤘
  18. Is it? Then get on the phone to CDC and offer to pay it.
  19. Twice types at least twice as fast as I do. I'll also add that getting rid of Herman with such a large buyout makes no sense unless you can replace him with someone considerably better. If Urban does not want the job, then CDC may have to wait for the conclusion of current NCAA and/or NFL seasons to make serious inquiries, and that is assuming that the money to buyout Herman wasn't tied to only Urban taking the job.
  20. Badyear
  21. Had to be done, or I couldn't use "dumber."
  22. Timing is everything, you fucking dimwitted asshats, and more goes into determining that than your impatience and the recruiting cycle. If you don't think CDC is aware of the importance of making a transition in a timely manner than you are dumber than you already appear to be. When it is possible to make a change that has a high probability of producing long term success, then he will make it. Let the man do his fucking job.
  23. I think that whatever is going to happen will happen when it happens, regardless of how many inane threads get created to continue beating that poor poor horse. This poll is not fresh, informative, or amusing in any way whatsoever, but it is very 2020, so congrats?
  24. All I can say is, there are going to be three teams who are going to end up regretting the alliance. Last night would have been a perfect time to try to eliminate an actual contender. I'm usually an "earn it by beating the best" person, but it doesn't really fit my narrative this season because the alliance crap makes for a boringly predictable race. I also really dislike two of the final four teams, and the fact that they both would likely be gone without the alliance makes it all the more annoying.
