  1. Yeah that skycam view makes it crystal, crystal clear. Such BS. Arch immediately pumps his fist because he knows with 100% confidence that it was defensive offsides. Hell the whole offense knew it. Parker L just about lost his mind after the call went against the offense, rightfully so.
  2. Okay, I retract my earlier comments about not throwing stuff at people. Your scenario provides plenty of justification.
  3. You blowhard!
  4. Yeah, there's no one I'm really rooting for in this video.
  5. Saw the Dwarves, Helmet and GWAR a couple of nights ago. You can see a couple of other pics in the main Concerts You're Attending thread, but posting this one here because true metal fans will understand. I was at the barricade for the entire show and most people were sadly unfamiliar with the Dwarves. So when they performed, we connected because I am a big fan and was fully into it, singing along, etc. Blag eventually tossed me the mic and I sang lead on Unrepentant for a while before tossing it back to him. After the show the band gave me the setlist. Fucking awesome. Heavy music just always delivers, the culture of fans and bands is badass, and man does it exorcize some demons like nothing else can.
  6. Saw the Dwarves, Helmet and GWAR a couple of nights ago. What a blast. The Dwarves continue to be my fave punk band of all time, and even though they've slowed down 1000% from the "fuck and fight onstage" phase, they were still a blast. Blag threw me the mic so I sang a few bars of Unrepentant before tossing it back to him; crowd was unsure what to expect from them but the Dwarves brought great energy and the crowd responded with a great pit and tons of crowd surfing. Helmet was solid. And if you've ever seen GWAR, you know what you're going to get. This round they had some sort of Trump / Pope amalgam come out for praise and worship of DJR before getting an axe in his head and then bending over to shoot blood and goo out of his ass all over the crowd. Like I said, you know what you're gonna get with GWAR; the second pic is a POV from the barricade.
  7. The unending wisdom of Sheriff Justice.
  8. Side note. You might be surprised at just how many people with mental illness are charged with felony assault on a police officer for either spitting or resisting arrest in which a cop gets a light scratch or bruise. I'm all for supporting the police, BTW, but it really is unconscionable for the police to charge people with felonies for basically freaking out in the midst of a mental health crisis. There are thousands of people with mental illness in county jails right now facing felony charges under just this scenario. (To be clear, I know the dude in the video was not in a mental health crisis. He looked drunk as hell, and he was an asshole. Just saying, the circumstances are similar -- and even worse when it's a person who is having a legit MH crisis.)
  9. uhhhhh....throwing scalding coffee on someone? Yeah that's not something I've ever wanted to do.
  10. That train treats that car carrier like a Tinkertoy. I'll repeat a story -- I was on the Amtrak from Austin to Dallas when we hit a 12-wheel truck stalled on the tracks. We didn't feel as much as a bump. We didn't know what had happened until the train stopped a ways down the track and then we went to the back of the train to see what had happened. Guy in the truck was of course killed instantly. Trains have so much damn power -- don't ever fuck around with them.
  11. Thanks for posting this. That second false start call at 2:03:28 is such BS. This skycam replay shows it clear as day. Also interesting to see the immediate reactions of Arch and CJ because they just know that it's offsides on the defense...and then see the reactions of multiple Texas players as the idiocy unfolds. Parker Livingstone is especially perturbed.
  12. His stats are especially insane when you consider that he's really only been playing at this level for the past 6 games. He was sort of MIA the first few games this season.
  13. Don't worry, I'm not a lawyer but I'm much smarter and more effective than 9/10 of them.
  14. 1999 Cotton Bowl vs Miss St is also a fun watch if you never got to watch Ricky run. He was a runaway freight train in that game. This still from the game is an example, but the three consecutive runs tagged to the video show why the guy was so unstoppable. Injures one guy trying to tackle him, busts several tackles for a 23 yard gain, and then absolutely obliterates a defensive player trying to stop him at the goal line.
  15. Texas Mizzou 1996 had Ricky running wild and carrying at least one guy into the end zone. But it's the insane hurricane like storm that hits at about 1:38:00 that made it epic. That poor bastard punting for Mizzou hit about a 15-yarder straight into the teeth of the wind and rain before the refs decided to call time for a while.
  16. One of the greatest things to ever witness
  17. Well, that squares. You're about as insufferable and miserable to be around as anyone I can remember. You'll be a great lawyer.
  18. Texas knows that beating Georgia probably puts us in the playoff. We seem to play better in those do or die situations, as opposed to when we are favored and smelling our own farts. Let's go.
  19. I mean, Eddie van Halen said that Wolfie was a far better musician than he could ever hope to be, so let's not get carried away with the validity of family praise.
  20. texaslonghorns.com has all recent games and radio calls archived. Go to the fans section, under multimedia click audio streaming, click for the mobile player, click on play past events, and then start walking the dog or mowing the grass while reliving past glories. It's pretty awesome, actually. They used to have old epic games on there too, like 1990 Houston or whatever, but I don't see those anymore. I have been listening to the 4th quarter and overtime radio call with Craig as I've been running errands and working out. It's great. The mobile player sucks but it's still cool to have all of those games to listen to.
  21. Is there a replay of the game posted yet?
  22. A few photos from the Denver show a couple of weeks back. First photo is from the soundcheck, which was cool. He played a few rarities (Every Night and I Wanna Be Your Man were highlights) and he had a really mellow vibe. Other photos are from our seats during the actual show. We had a great time. As I said in the other thread, for that 3 hours you can forget everything going on in the outside world and just feel good about life. Highly recommend.
  23. There's a big difference between Sark leaving for a job in the NFL vs being fired. Seems like a lot of people on here want him fired, which is ridiculous for so many reasons. For the Texas football program going forward, Sark should not be fired based on his performance so far. But a lot of people are wondering what a different coach might be able to maximize from these players, which accomplishes the same thing without the downsides of firing Sark.
  24. This bad guy is getting paid $50 million to not work. Same with Jimbo and Franklin. Doesn't really seem like the good guys are really winning anything, but okay. I'm glad Kelly's sorry ass is being embarrassed, but it's a Pyrrhic victory overall IMO.
