  2. Bumping this thread to acknowledge the anniversary of the Challenger disaster happening on this date back in 1986. Still remember being in 6th grade science class and one of the other teachers coming in to tell my science teacher about what happened. Also a belated remembrance of Apollo 1 (January 27th) and the upcoming anniversary of the Columbia disaster (February 1st). I always find it amazing that 3 of the biggest disasters in space program history all happened within the same week on the calendar.
  3. As someone who works with several sea aggy grads, I have been informed that the Galveston campus is not a system school in the way that A&M Commerce or A&M Kingsville is. The Galveston campus is considered a part of the main College Station campus. Probably a better analogy out there, but it is sort of the aggy version of the Balcones Research Center or whatever it called nowadays.

  5. Posted this in the Las Vegas thread but going to go ahead and post it here as well since it is chip-related.
  6. NASCAR legend Cale Yarborough right before the end of the year. https://www.espn.com/racing/nascar/story/_/id/39215537/cale-yarborough-three-nascar-champion-70s-dies-84
  7. Posted by @Aqua Buddha in the 2023 Bowl Games thread on the football board:
  8. Those big fat checks from the conference come from somewhere. This is the price we are going to have to pay. Not saying it isn't aggravating and it most certainly sucks sitting through seemingly endless commercial breaks, but it is what it is.
  9. What is Case McCoy doing these days?
  10. 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.
  11. 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
  12. 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
  14. It just means burns more?
  15. 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.
  16. 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
  17. 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.
  18. You can get your Doritos in liquor form now. This New Doritos Liquor Is More Than Just a Cheesy Gimmick
  19. Thanks. Can't believe I have never heard that slang for UH, especially since I grew up in the Houston area.
  20. 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.
