2023 Houston Rockets Offseason Thread - Time to Start Thinking About Winning Again
So only #1 picks move you toward winning? That's silly. The whole idea of losing is to get young, talented players. We did that. Now the front office needs to bring in the right vets and some defenders to take the next step, but they're heading in the right direction.

2023 Houston Rockets Offseason Thread - Time to Start Thinking About Winning Again
Guess it depends what your definition of worked is. It's been 3 seasons...still too soon to know if tanking worked. Being able to draft young talent like Green, Smith, Eason et al was made possible by losing. Now they've hired a real coach...also brought on by losing. All that being said, if there isn't a marked improvement this year, whatever benchmark that is, then we can say losing/tanking didn't work. Realistically, what does a "successful" 23-24 season look like?

That's awesome... We are at La Mex almost every weekend for breakfast/brunch/hangover cures. They should do well over there.

Went to new location last night. It was great. Was able to get seats at the bar. It's a nice buildout. Bartenders were good. Manager lady had huge cans, which was an added bonus. We like Pico's too, we're friends with the owners daughter. Los Tios might be our new regular spot. We usually drive all the way to Tony's on Ella. We're in Montrose, so surrounded by options depending on mood 😆

I love the cognitive dissonance of that place. SEC SEC SEC!! They can't handle the week-in-week-out challenge of an SEC schedule. It's a grind It's a gauntlet It's muderer's row :Schedule Release: Texas got an easy schedule, durrrrrrrrr, durrrrrrrrrr

What game in 24 are you Horns most excited about?
Colorado St. since it's game 1 But I guess out of the ones you listed it's a toss up between the Big House and Between the Hedges. 2 great road game opportunities.

Palo Alto Super Regional: Texas @ Stanford
That shit was brutal to watch. Figured 2nd or 3rd time through the lineup they would've been sitting first ball, breaking ball. Oh well, back at it this eve..

Palo Alto Super Regional: Texas @ Stanford
I'm sure it's been covered, so SIAP.. How many 0-2 counts were we in last night? Seemed like everyone was down 0-2 before stepping in the box.

Trivial Things That Make You Surly
I'm not sure if this is a "trivial" thing or not. I guess it's debatable, but that's for another day. People that park at gas pumps (not getting gas) to run into the store are giant pieces of shit. Full stop.

2023 Texas Softball - Back to WCWS
Uhhh, pretty sure he's not comparing the success of the 2 programs, just the antics. I guess softball needs more brushback pitches/headhunting. That might curb some of the ridiculous celebrations for walks etc. Oh well, OU is really fucking good. They're the Alabama of softball right now

I can't imagine putting so much time and effort into trying to control the narrative of something that nobody outside of college station, gives a shit about. If the the game is at Kyle Field, you can claim a very inconsequential/insignificant "victory". OK? If the game is in Austin, the entire conference will laugh, because you made such a public stand on it and "lost". Again.

What a weird thing to get worked up about. Par for the aggy course, I suppose.

Concerts you are attending
Went to Miller Outdoor theater last night for Classic Albums Live. This group plays, you guessed it, Classic Albums...cut for cut. They did the Beatles Sgt. Peppers last night. They were backed by the Houston Symphony. It was a fun chill night on the hill. I've NEVER seen it as packed as it was for their free summer series shows..Seats and Hill were 90% full. We were almost on the backside of the hill, lol Looked at their website and they're playing all over the country, different albums, Purple Rain, Back in Black, Dark Side of the Moon, Ziggy Stardust, Rumors
