  1. End of a rainbow is where you’ll find Kyler Murray.
  2. No CR, but why is his skin orange?
  3. The rare non-sarcastic FIFY. Nice.
  4. It truly is amazing the things the human body can build up a tolerance to. That one guy who is invulnerable to snake venom, aggy to embarrassment, etc.
  5. Brent Venables corrects people and says, “pig in a blanket,” whenever they say the word kolache.
  6. Brent Venables doesn't like Tex Mex because "cilantro tastes like soap."
  7. Brent Venables thinks Brian Bosworth deserved an academy award.
  8. What is it about "Maroon and White" that makes people delusional?
  9. While my post was mostly an attempt at humor, I think we can agree that there is certainly some NIL money being paid solely because an athlete being associated with a particular team makes people with money happy just like I'm sure the head honchos at Casa Olé laughed every time they saw José Lima wearing a sombrero, doing a shimmy and singing, "Casa Olé, Fresh Today! Every Day! Casa Olé!!!"
  10. Here is how understand NIL works using a real world example: Back in 1998 and 1999, José Lima was a starting pitcher for the Houston Astros, winning 37 games in two seasons and was selected to the 1999 National League All-Star team. This was so called "Lima Time" rocking and Casa Olé (Fresh today, every day!) signed Lima to a deal in which he appeared in television commercials promoting the fine Mexican cuisine and ambiance offered by the Houston area restaraunt chain. In 2000, José's heat lost its spice and he had a league worst 6.65 ERA and gave up 48 enchiladas. The Astros traded him the following season. Casa Olé paid him to advertise for them based on the idea that his successful pitching would cause fans to choose Case Olé for their fine dining needs and purchase more tacos, burritos, green sauce and the like. Once he was no longer an effective pitcher for the Astros, his value to Casa Ole deteriorated like old queso. His was not paid to play even if his value was derived from his successful play. In my mind, college sports NIL is the same. Being an athlete creates value but the contract does not require athletic performance. A specific player is valuable to local business seeking an NIL partner while a member of the local team. Once that player disassociates themselves from the local team, then value goes away.
  11. https://therealstreamhub.site/showthread.php?tid=1288 Here are streams for the games this week. Might have to try out a few of the links.
  12. Notre Dame is so perennially overrated they probably just get the 25 ranking to just miss this list even when they have four or five losses.
  13. Imagine being so stupid that you don’t understand that primaries are how voters of a party get to democratically decide who the nominee is but, because he is polling bad, the party pushes him out and replaces him with the candidate of the choice of a few individuals.
  14. Elko’s whole aura just screams mediocrity, which is just so on brand for aggy.
  15. Texas has more road milage than any other state by a significant margin with 683,533 miles. In fact, only 5 countries (not counting the United Sates as a whole) have more road mileage than Texas.
