  1. Doesnt matter where QE got drafted, other than money...NFL is the ultimate meritocracy. He went to a good situation. Tua wont be in the league by Halloween, too oft injured. If QE has a good camp , he'll be playing plenty and will get locked up with a nice contract in time. In some ways getting drafted lower will water down expectations. I think he will fine. Im rooting for him. San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is currently in the final year of his $3.7 million rookie contract. He is expected to sign a new, long-term contract extension, potentially making him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the league. While the specifics of the new deal are still being negotiated, reports suggest it could be in the range of $58-68 million per year
  2. Anyone have any updates? I saw him in the dugout and looks like he just has a brace, not a cast.
  3. When Calvin threw out the first pitch earlier this year (believe each home game or maybe just weekend games not sure, they invite a former player) they invite that player up to the booth for an inning. He had some incredible comments, wish i could recall all of them. One that stood out....back then, spring break games only counted as 1 in the view of the NCAA, so Gus loaded up. That year we played some ridiculous amount of games , 10-15 games in that week with multiple DHs. Like i said I dont recall all the stats he threw out, but the staff had like 4 guys throw 10 complete games or something to that affect. There were a few other anecdotes, it was a great listen. He said they played 80 or so games in total that year and only lost 10 or 12. Ill have to look it up
  4. Keep jammin' man, nice work. Got all 3 of my girls working for the summer, so hopefully the AC bill will be alright. Getting new homeowners quote now, interested to see what that comes in at. Still dollar cost averaging working our plan through all the crazy market gyrations this year. Had to stroke an $85K reader to Uncle Sam a couple weeks ago , so not much dry powder to push more in than the normal. Did opt to not take out of the 529 a couple months in a row for my oldest's college rent due to downturn. Had bit of good luck taking a nice chunk out a non qualified Vanguard account for a property investment (in Dec) so that saved a paper loss ytd.
  5. For whatever round is the best of 3, dont recall if that is Supers or what they call it.... we'll get matched with B12 (AZ or KS schools and send Aggie to Baton Rouge or Southern Miss) IMO. If we are #1 overall, they wont send us the Ags, as I believe they will have too good of RPI to be matched with us.
  6. The whole episode is great. I like Dax. Was that the Buzz the lens story? ah heck, nychorn beat me to it.
  7. That was me , on all levels. Placed out of 10 hours of Spanish with an A, took 12 hours as a provisional freshman with a 3.0. Partied like the biker my whole Freshman year and leaned on those 24 hours in the bag. That was summer ‘88
  8. So they would then be 1-30? Now that would be funny
  9. All the kickoffs go in the endzone now , punt returner however would be nice.
  10. Thought the same thing. He must be thinking about Burke.
  11. Ive watched or listened to damn near every game for the last 20 years. Welcome to the club. College Baseball, specifically Texas Baseball is my #2 sport behind Texas football. It is a lot of fun watching us play. The only thing I miss this year is losing our announcers. Other than radio, the TV feed is always a crew that doesnt really know Texas baseball. For example tonight the TV crew said something like "if Texas can keep Schloss (sp)" . The fuck is that. College coaches for one dont go pro, so where else do they think he would go?
  12. Not so sure about that. Sark's issues were inside the 10 and we weren't kicking FG's from there. Without looking it up, Bert struggled from outside the red zone.
  13. This game will have at least 7 inninings.
  14. Doubt it. Dates don't match up, but i suppose its possible. According to this article, Fred was out of jail barely in October of 2010 when he found out he was to be a dad, making that kid now just 15. https://www.al.com/sports/2010/10/former_florida_state_top_prosp.html
  15. At least we had a backup plan, some 3* from Tuscola Jim Ned.
  16. Thrown Out on the Bases Like a Nincompoop.
  17. Agreed. Had to look it up to be sure, i didnt realize he was at Texas 3 years. He ended up a 2 year starter at Guard (i thought it was 3) for the Vols.
  18. For those wondering: An 80-grade tool in baseball scouting represents an elite skill, exceeding even a 70-grade tool, which is considered outstanding. The 20-80 scouting scale is used to evaluate player abilities, with 50 representing average and 80 representing the highest possible grade. Here's a breakdown: 80-Grade: Represents the highest possible grade, indicating a truly elite and exceptional tool. 70-Grade: A very high grade, indicating a standout skill well above average. 20-80 Scale: Used to evaluate player skills and tools, with 50 being average and grades above 50 indicating above-average ability. Example: An 80-grade fastball might reach 100 mph with excellent control, while a 70-grade fastball might reach 98 mph with good control.
  19. Texas transfer OL Karic from Southlake Carroll became a 3 year starter for Tennessee.
  20. Is he hurt/injured? I may have missed it.
  21. PSA , just in case anyone missed it….game time 11 AM today
  22. Thank you for the update. Yeah, from the broadcast it looked cold but not crazy. Had CRaig Way on the radio before getting to a TV and sounded like Flores 1st inning warning track fly got held up a bit in the wind , but overall not too bad of an evening/weekend.
