  1. Half point PPR pretty efficiently balances RB and WR value, it makes starting rosters matter. How many of each position do you play? I’d have Gurley, Bell, Brown top 3 but if you play 3WR Brown scoots up. 3WR with no flex and you could make an argument for AB at #1.
  2. Yeah, SF rooms vary wildly with what’s going on in town. I’ve paid between $250 and $700 a night there.
  3. Yeah, Chuy’s always overestimates, too...would have been actually eating sooner than Matt’s adventure. The pro move here is drinks at Brickhouse, phone on the bar so you can see it, come back, FYI.
  4. Tyler has too many friends in the house to be the target, people will be in his ear about targets, and he’s too dumb to figure anything out. I guess unless Hayleigh convinces him, but even if she does she’ll want to do it via backdown and can’t cause cloud app.
  5. I'm not saying that at all. I can make a great steak at home. I can make shitty Chinese food at home. One of those is worth investing my time in, the other I'll just buy.
  6. When Fessie said that, I said to my wife that he’s not going to much like this show on rewatch. You would think that since that side of the house is constantly surprised by the way things happen, they’d eventually understand that they’re losing. Hayleigh isn’t great, but she’s freaking Derrick compared to her trash alliance members.
  7. I'm torn with this, especially in a ppr league. But if I am wrong with drake in a league already spread thin on RBs, I'd be kicking myself. Engram is going 2 rounds later on average and costs you an earlier pick. I don't think it's close. If you don't like Drake much (and I don't) he still has more value, trade him to somebody that emerges from the draft with a bad RB situation.
  8. Meh, if I was a Texas fan I'd be pretty excited about Matt Coleman. Freshman point guards tend to struggle but they tend to have lots of room for improvement. As a point of (KU) comparison, he had a better freshman season than Aaron Miles did. Sims is gonna be a good player, Roach is a nice piece. If Andrew Jones is 80% of his pre-lukiemia self, that's an all Big 12 player. They aren't starting with nothing here...I'd expect them to be at least as good as they were last year and that's in a relatively weaker conference.
  9. You must love your kids more than I love mine. I'll be scratching a check for the cost of 4 years at UT and telling them good luck.
  10. So, you saved me $3 but cost me the better part of an hour of my life. I choose the shitty takeout.
  11. You’ve got a pretty long road ahead, but step one is going ahead and sliding that “Find My iPhone” toggle over to off.
  12. We’ll always have the confusingly located and shockingly busy 45th & Lamar version to sustain us.
  13. Indeed. So far, it’s weeding out shitty players, though...and the Tyler/Angela trust has seemed to get deeper for it. Rachel taking Bay’s version as gospel destroyed her game, and Bayleigh completely misunderstanding that conversation will (I’m assuming tonight) destroy hers. It’s funny to me that such a mild, normal HoH, PoV conversation is going to wreck two players.
  14. This but also, I had my wife drive a shift last Friday because I had to do a little work to solve a problem in the office. Me and kids climb back into the car and she’s putting her purse away, putting sunglasses on, and adjusting mirrors before starting it. It’s 105 out. I’m pretty sure if push to start had existed when we dated, so I couldn’t have glossed over this by starting it myself I’d have just found a different girl.
  15. I’ve been a semi regular there for a long time, a couple golf buddies looooove it and it’s on everybody’s drive home. My wife was out of the country for back to back V-Days a few years back. There’s a non zero chance I was one of the losers at the bar. I did not have cards or roses, though.
  16. You’re closing the sorts of girls that would do bad things for 7-11 hot dogs.
  17. Yeah, I don’t get that. Bay way overplayed her power week. She’s also a major asshole. I’d be completely shocked if she survives the first shot taken at her, and I don’t think there is any way possible it takes longer than the next 2-3 weeks. Level 6 views her as the head of the snake. Without a miracle, she gone.
  18. Are you talking 18 road games at the Cedar Park Center?
  19. Look, I thought we were having fun here. But P Terry’s AND In & Out? Boneless wings? I need a shower.
  20. Don’t get mad at me. You’re the one that eventually has to explain to sweet, innocent, 8 pound baby Jesus that you prefer breaded wings. Then presumably explain other stuff you’ve done wrong in life...but surely none of it is quite to that scale.
  21. Hooters wings suck. I was shocked by the love for them/breaded wings earlier in the thread. Nononononononono.
  22. If Angela does that, Tyler isn’t playing this game as well as I think he is. The ONE reason you don’t play that power app is b/c it opens up the funniest eviction in the history of the show, per Derka’s plan. She’s probably not smart enough to understand that, but she’s similarly not smart enough to figure out that her side is losing a number if you just tell her what she wants to hear all week about targets. i don’t think her app has that much power this week really, and it opens her up as a target. I don’t watch feeds, so if I’m already wrong, don’t laugh.
  23. That should really be true for Houston, too. I’m not sure how they do it. NWLL in Austin had 24 hours to prep for the previous regional. The team that knocked them out in the championship at the previous level was cheating, it turns out. Kids baseball is serious business.
  24. Disclaimer: I have never run a message board, though I have used about a dozen since the late 90s. Going to ads if the motivation isn’t to quit your day job is always the wrong move. It always costs as least some traffic, and if the mobile experience sucks some subscriber traffic, and that ultimately harms the product. I’m not a Texas fan (though do live in Austin)...I spend so much time here, because it’s among the best off-topic forum ties to sports on the internet. The fact that I live in the town and my team shares a conference helps, but I’d frequent the non-sports boards here regardless. So, ads feel (historical experience) like a damage to the product and an unnecessary one if the goal is covering expenses and throwing a righteous tailgate every year, targeting the Kansas game in odd numbered years no doubt...you don’t schedule fucking homecoming in a game you could lose. In for subscription if we go that route. I do think it should be 3.49 or 3.51 a month to carry forward “about tree fiddy”. If somebody is serious about trying to meaningfully help BL get whole, I’m in for that too.
  25. Yeah, I danced around a similar point earlier, but with last year’s performance combined with starting ugly (maybe), the spreads could get stupid. When a team is so bad nobody wants to bet them, that creates value. KU -10 against Nicholls State (FCS) in week 1.
