  1. It is also fixable. I'd rather deal with something I can fix in my driveway than a chevy that will grenade a motor. Ignore the haters @Txslnghrns. Nice rig.
  2. I am less than gruntled with this team. Hoping this is just early season 'stros shit.
  3. Yeah I agree. I am still living with the memory of the fuckery of last weekend. We will play it straight and let shit fall where it may. Edit: it is always about pitching though.
  4. Sorry for the rage posting double up but I am never going to forfeit. We will just deal with it and do it the right way. I am just frustrated it keeps happening. /ranting
  5. If you fall below 8 players you have to forfeit. A team did that last weekend in 13u and ended up with a better seed (didn't play the no1 seed that smoked everyone). They ended up with a 3pm game over our 8am that we got for actually playing. They took their 0-7 scored forfeit and we lost giving up 9 runs at 11pm while they were sleeping at home. Those 2 runs cost us a late game. Just a stupid stupid setup.
  6. Well, new weekend, same story. Playing at 4:15 and 8:20 with 9 year olds. We may just start forfeiting the second game on Saturday to save energy for Sundays. Everyone knows we ain't starting at 8:20. Stupid shit.
  7. Can we talk about how stupid these game times have become? Schedule too many teams for the fields, games stack up and get later and later. Last game is supposed to start at 8:15, doesn't start until 10:15pm. Sunday games are at 8am. Really stupid. It comes down to who got to play early Saturday. We had kids that went home and ended up with 4hrs or less sleep. Bullshit scheduling. Basically we should have just forfeited the second game just so we could have clawed back 3 hours of sleep for the boys. Defeats the point of the tournament imo.
  8. I have fubo.tv and the game worked on one TV but not another outside, yesterday. I can't figure out why it usually works but randomly won't. Shakes fist at the sky.
  9. When I am looking at a resume, I like those gaps filled with whatever the applicant was doing. Even if it is something like "backpacked through Europe." It shows they may not have been fired and just wanted to explore other things for a while. I would lay out your choice with regard to raising your young child in your cover letter, briefly. That also shows character in my opinion. Even though we know you are a heathen and of low character since we are posting in this hive of villainy and scum. Good luck!
  10. I bought a pass for the UTSA game a few weeks ago. It only showed 1 available but maybe I was looking at it wrong. It worked but the fees were 20 something on a 7 dollar pass. Still cheaper than the other options I guess.
  11. Cosign. As someone who actually hires a shitload of folks into a stem field. I don't give two fucks about where they graduated from or if they even graduated at all. They just need to show they have drive to learn and we will teach them to do the job. In fact, the amount of *gasp* immigrants that I hire because they are qualified and hardworking would make our resident red's head spin. They are taking your jobs because you and yourn are shit workers.
  12. And some are too stupid to understand why.
  13. Whoa, the chickens come home to roost and Ana's lil angel ain't gonna make the cut. Lulz. I am absolutely shocked I tell you.
  14. What did I just watch. Is this my 13u team?
  15. How does a sec team only pull 37 fans to the park for a game? I just got home, was listening on the radio. Embarrassing mizzou.
  16. Well I stand corrected. I had it twisted. Thought he gained it 2 years in for some reason. @Gourmand I get the sentiment then. I just think he was trying to play the game without knowing what the game was. Either way, the impact of funding and propaganda overtakes everything.
  17. Obama didn't have total control of both the house and the senate correct? I am not sure what he could have done about bush. There were also extreme headwinds with the economy and general disdain from the fox news crowd having him as the president. Using up goodwill going after the last repub president would have been political suicide. We live and have lived in a world where a propaganda network (that my inlaws deem too liberal) has spent close to 4 decades tilting the scales. There in no world where any dem would go after the other party because it plays right into their hand. Meanwhile the rest have done a great job of manufacturing outrage at the boogeyman dems. Everything they say is a confession but their base is too stupid to pick up on the nuance. There is a huge difference between us and Brazil, we are fat and happy for 70 years and they have been hungry. They are active we are not. We are 70 years off the curve and honestly, I don't see it mattering with the absolute control of the message the oligarchy have achieved.
  18. The fact that you believe this is the problem. There was never a world where this didn't happen. The fairness doctrine and citizens united were the final nail in the coffin for America. Add in the internet with the algorithms that reinforce everything the idiots believe... Everything was over but the crying after that. No president or prosecution would matter after that. We live in a world where the idiots don't fear shame. They have millions on their side armed with a computer that directs them to whatever confirms their beliefs and it allows them to feel smart enmass.
  19. We live in a world where objectively corrupt/criminal/r worded actions are defended by the masses. People actively defend it on national platforms. People actively diminish it in social circles. It is easy to do because their God king has emboldened them, they feel safe. Once reality sets in and their safety is threatened, it will be too late. It is coming, and it will be brutal. All you can do is prepare and make sure you only look out for number 1. That is the new normal. But have no fear, the easy way to spot the enemy is to look for the people on their knees with a billionaires cock in their mouth. I kid I kid. Everything is going swimmingly and we should love our new overlords. I know I do. I am going to thrive in this new world order.
  20. There is a very real chance that our brave service members are going to die because these idiots decide to text battle plans or other classified info. What a fun simulation! The adults are indeed back.
  21. People that stumble into threads and post dumbass shit and then double/triple down. Also clowns, but I repeat myself.
