  1. And I will continue to call out their stupidity as I always have in the past. You're welcome to continue to criticize me for doing so as well.
  2. Just because on the whole our board is light years ahead of others shouldn't stop us from calling out the stupidity within.
  3. I'm not claiming Texas is the worst by any stretch. Rather, neither are we immune to the failings and stupidity of other fans bases. We do own a particular advantage over some in our arrogance, which personally I would have any other way, because we really are better.
  4. That's video is a work of fiction and I understand 3 people died during filming. I'm just sayin'.
  5. Yeah, we absolutely salivate and celebrate when we "steal" an absolute stud off someone else's roster. However, when Texas player looks to improve his position and go elsewhere, "NIL is killing college football". Similarly in 24 season heading in to CFP don't remember any threads about why the CFP is killing college football or sucks, but Texas misses this year and there are multiple CFP sucks ass threads. It's Texas, it's what we do.
  6. Why do you hate watching Keystone Cops sketch comedy?
  7. In fairness to Michael you just described 99.999% of Miami "fans". Most people in Miami gear never went to that school and never even lived in that city. They are the east coast USC.
  8. Yeah the shore line doesn't have a lot of buildable area.
  9. And Detroit, like Dallas, currently lacks a real NFL team so...
  10. The median household income in Gary is $37,380 with a poverty rate of 32.93%. The median age in Gary is 36.4 years: 34.9 years for males, and 37.9 years for females. For every 100 females there are 86.9 males. Gary CAN be that bad!
  11. I recently watched a really good and interesting documentary on Gary. It was a very hot spot for a time. The true capital "Industry town". The swing from a city recognized for its intriguing development to the downfall is sad, interesting and well, very Murican'.
  12. Hammond... lol. You bet! I suppose some people would still go, but..
  13. Well, Ft Wayne is much closer to Indianapolis and about the same distance to Detroit as Chicago. This feels like Bears ownership pulling a flex to get the city to fund a new stadium, which is appropriate given the graft that is Chicago politics. I suggest the Bears organization look into kidnapping and/or hiring some drug mules.
  14. Well, there is East Chicago, IN and other small cities, but yeah, moving to Indiana doesn't make any sense.
  15. Well god damn, we used rackets in the hood not racquets. We also had a lot of various questionable rackets but they had nothing to do with the topic at hand.
  16. Tennis ball? We played wall ball with a racket ball or hand ball, and getting "pegged", yes pegged for dropping one was what happened. Getting your ass pounded by a hand ball was no light thing. Fortunately, we were in middle school and most kids couldn't throw for shit. The baseball players like myself were... problematic. Edit- In retrospect, we were a poor ass school. Nobody's parents were going anywhere you could play racket ball except maybe the outdoor courts at the community college. So either someone's family member picked up hand ball in prison or we had a sadistic little shit among us.
  17. But if that happens the 2 separate threads will be inundated with this thread sucks posters. Conversely if we go full admin board and ban those stepping outside the lines the threads will slow to a crawl sans the this thread sucks posters. This thread sucks posters are the decimal point argument glue that holds this place together. What would we do without them. It's like trying to imagine social media without influencers and their amazing value.
  18. My head started bobbing to the rhythm upon reading this... thanks!
  19. Pk held OSU to their lowest scoring output of the year, and he's the issue.
  20. It can't be said enough that the ending of that game was absolutely perfect. Aggie hopes and dreams, the roller-coaster build of the drive down the field, getting so close, and with under a minute left the train goes of the track, their "Heisman" QB throws an INT and the aggies end the season with a loss to Texas followed by their new QB savior crushing all hopes.
  21. DOC... check him out. IYKYK
  22. I put my money where my mouth is and I'm not an aggie. I'll believe it when I see it and if I'm wrong pay my debts, eat my crow and happily celebrate our new OL coach, GM and play calling duties shift if they happen. Edit - Now if you'll excuse me, I have some filling and delicious aggie tears to consume.
  23. Texas and Florida (teams) pull good numbers, I think that one will show good numbers even though nobody gives a shit about aggie outside Houston metroplex. SEC rematch had no competition, SE numbers will be good, but NE and west coast won't show up much. The participation trophy games will be terrible numbers. VS two of the best known uniforms and brands in college football, one of which and in many cases both are extremely hated. Yes, yes it will.
  24. This is the key take away that I posted prior. I think the when the number crunchers get a look at the Friday and early Saturday games and compare them the message will be clear. Big names and perceptions of quality competition is much, much, much more valuable than the idea of the Cinderella story in college football. The legal aspects regarding the inclusion of G5, and how to end that will be put in full gear because nothing drives business like the bottom line and bringing in lawyers to achieve better results financially is always an investment rich entities are willing to make for the ROI.
  25. You mean using a running game with a great OL to improve TOP to keep our D off the field? That's just crazy talk!
