  1. Are radar detectors still a thing? I cannot recall the last time I saw one in a vehicle. I remember when I got my driver's license and first car in 1990 it seemed like everyone had a radar detector in their car. Maybe it was just us idiot teenagers with lead feet that had them.
  2. Herb Kohl, former Wisconsin senator, former owner of the Milwaukee Bucks, namesake to the basketball arena at UW, gone at 88. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/39193385/former-bucks-owner-us-senator-herb-kohl-dies-88
  3. I, for one, will not stand for the lack of Happy Boxing Day wishes. Unless there is a thread somewhere for Boxing Day. I'm lazy and did not look.

    Didn't see a better thread for this so doing a little necro bump. Arkansas pitcher Austin Ledbetter leaving baseball team to play QB for Razorbacks
  5. It will be interesting to see what the ratings for today's match end up being. Going up against the NFL is usually not great for most programming. But my completely uneducated guess is that moving the championship match to Sunday and putting it on broadcast television is a signal that ABC and ESPN are looking to give women's sports some more exposure. If I recall the women's basketball title game pulled in some good numbers on ABC but I have no idea what it was up against programming-wise.
  6. From what I can gather, corn is something of a powerhouse in women's bowling. Six national titles since the NCAA started conducting a championship in 2004. https://www.ncaa.com/history/bowling/nc
  7. I have really got to get up to Austin and take in a match at Gregory. From the videos I have see it looks like an awesome atmosphere. Congrats to the women on back-to-back titles. Like Rudy T said back in the day, never underestimate the heart of a champion.
  8. You can get your Doritos in liquor form now. This New Doritos Liquor Is More Than Just a Cheesy Gimmick
  9. Thanks. Can't believe I have never heard that slang for UH, especially since I grew up in the Houston area.
  10. Okay, I have to ask: 7-11 thieves references who, exactly? I have no recollection of ever hearing that in reference to another school. Apologies in advance for the ignorance and thanks in advance for clearing up my confusion.
  11. https://www.latimes.com/sports/dodgers/story/2023-12-05/half-a-billion-thats-the-latest-price-for-a-gondola-to-dodger-stadium The latest cost estimate for the gondola is almost as much as the Dodgers just signed Ohtani for. So it will never get built, or get built for about the cost of an entire team of Ohtanis.
  12. There is a sex tent joke in here somewhere but it escapes me right now.
  13. If you leave out all years after 1995 and before 2012 that are not 1998, Texas A&M averages 11 wins a year. That's just basic math ya dumb sip.
  14. I am guessing with an increase in hospital admissions for alcohol poisoning. Edit: I see @Bevo14 is thinking the same thing.
  15. I half expect the committee to come up with some bs reason why Bama, Georgia, Michigan, and Ohio State are in the playoff. Probably something to do with completion percentage.
  16. From Winsipedia (don't think they've updated with today's result): Kind of pissed that we are even with West Virginia. We all know about aggy and the children of the corn. Texas is 12-7-0 against Colorado and 18-6-0 against Missouri. BYU...well, it is what it is.
  17. Probably a shopping center somewhere in Waxahachie that has space for both. Seems like having a depilatory studio next door to a strip club would just make good business sense.
  18. Could probably go in several different threads but I'll just put it here. Video: Florida man with ‘all gas, no brakes’ neck tattoo crashes after fleeing Polk County crime scene
  19. Seems like an appropriate thread to post this. Sergey Brin has too much money, decides to bring back the blimp and makes it really big. The world’s largest aircraft breaks cover in Silicon Valley (Some other technical information here.)
  20. ESPN was all over that yesterday. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/38880958/what-buy-jimbo-fisher-768-million-buyout-texas-am
