  1. You should check that, off the top of my head, Texas Mack had wins over LSU, tOSU, Miss St, UW, Oregon St, Iowa, Wassu, ASU, Michigan, USC...the only losses being Oregon 2x, ARK (i believe in Cotton bowl but could be wrong) and Bama Edit, as i re-read your post, you may be referring to just Oregon, which would make a lot more sense. Overall Texas Mack was pretty good in bowls, mainly b/c we shit the bed late in the season and should have been in major bowls in lieu of what we got.
  2. I dont get the check bag deal. The only time we check a bag is for a week long ski trip. I have 3 teen girls plus wife. Teach them to pack correctly and if needed a standard roller and large duffle. Put the purse in the bag and take out before putting in overhead. I can go anywhere for a week with a roller bag and a backpack. NEVER EVER check a bag, that is the most amateur thing a traveler can do, completely blows my mind that people will check a bag for a long weekend. All carriers allow for 2 carry-ons. The standard carry plus a large duffle is to go-to. Most times for a long weekend pack back pack and jam it under the seat in front, then once airborne, put it under your calves and rotate as needed back underneath, save all the pain of a cancel or need to go standby.
  3. I remember rpongett being a solid contributor from Hornfans days, as was hpslugga. billinsinton too, havent seen his name in a long time.
  4. I think we can all agree this war has been an absolute catastrophe for UKR and Russia. The indiscriminate bombing, rape, torture etc.. A pyrrhic victory is defined as: A very costly victory, wherein the considerable losses outweigh the gain, so as to render the struggle not worth the cost. I don't know that I find much joy in writing this, but the amount of knowledge we have gained regarding the paradigm shift in tactics as it relates to drone warfare is incredible. RU is proving to be a much less formidable foe than any of us could have dreamed. I know the nuke deterrent is overwhelming and none of us want that, it should be avoided at all costs. I find it fascinating how much more advanced the west/NATO is compared to Putin's capabilities. There is no victory in that fact, but I have to believe this is a sea changing moment in history vis a vis how we deal with RU going forward. As long as he has the nukes, nothing will be settled, but it has to give him some pause as to just how vulnerable his grab on power is at this moment.
  5. With regards to the Engels-2 mission. RU was forced to move those bomber appx 4,000 miles (and 3 time zones east). This will make them a lot easier to pick up on radar and force RU to use a lot more fuel. I wonder if the talk of negotiations that has escalated the last week is a result of the RU now realizing the terror campaign of launching missiles from those bombers, formerly warehoused at Engels-2, just became next level more difficult? Good on the Ukes, no doubted aided by our intel/assets, for pulling that off. IIRC this is the 2x they have been able to get to that site.
  6. It sure is looking that way. Legal process will likely take us through the majority of the season. I could see a scenario where the admins keep him on unpaid leave through the season, letting the process play out. DA will likely drop charges at the behest of the fiancee. He has a presser this late spring, early summer, and assuming he handles that appropriately (ie is contrite, offers apologies to the team, school etc.), he'll be brought back. Recruits that commit will be allowed to stay or go, but in the end if they know hes the coach in 23-24, some may stick. Not saying I agree with all of that, but its certainly plausible .
  7. Robinson, brooks and Blu …time to shine
  8. At least we got one Sugar Bowl win out of him. He balled out in the Dome that night. Then it was stoogatz the next couple seasons.
  9. He’s fine. Just a precaution
  10. We may win this by 40. They’re not a bad team. Wins over SMU , Harvard and Etsu. Pretty salty performance so far for our Horns. When Morris is your 5 or 6th offensive option , you know you have something. Rice is super smooth
  11. Podunk town in a podunk state where you are maybe the 5th team of relevance in your division. No titles, transient coaching history etc etc. unless you’re chasing tail , Oxford is a total outpost.
  12. We were all over Epps when that one HS highlight reel was posted of him making an incredible catch over the middle. After that we go nothing from him at the next level. Suppose you could say that about a lot of guys, but man I thought he was the next Finley.
  13. Reading that contract language, hard to see any possible way he is the coach at Texas next year. Let the season play out with the interim. Sweet 16 or better and the class stays in tact, its possible. How possible is it we can get Jay Wright?
  14. @Nicole44 are you reading where one of the victim's mothers was arrested for felony drug charges recently? It could have been as recent as within days of the murders. Might this be related? Have you read that about the mother?
  15. Yeah, just bring an umbrella in case the bottom falls out.
  16. The grandmother makes the show. She’s pretty funny. The other daughter is not as hot as the young one plus she comes across as a bitch, rarely has any dialogue. She got a divorce couple seasons ago.
  17. He’s not going anywhere. He’s a wr #1, has solid numbers on an improving team. Y’all reading too much in to a kids social media.
  18. I believe they lied on the credit application and had falsified bank records manufactured by the co-conspirator cpa guy. Add in a jilted ex gay lover and a high maintenance cookoo daughter (not the one actually on the show) and you have a recipe for disaster.
  19. If Mack had it to all over again, he would have done 3 things different: 1. Given Sherrod Harris a chance (at least a series or two) vs Bama; Harris likely doesnt transfer/quit football the following year. He would have been given a chance to compete for starter minutes, and once Gilbert shits the bed vs BYU, we would have had a senior back up vs a freshman. Our QB desert is likely avoided (yes the Ash concussions contributed to that) 2. He would not have tried to copy Bama Offense, given the fact the entire conference and nation were going spread, hurry up. If we would have adapted to the change and play to the strengths of the recruiting base, we may have been able to stay the course 3. He would have brought in more competent , creative underlings to modernize the offense ala TTU and OU, this is sort of relatred to #2 IF, he would have done those 3 simple things
  20. We will. And win the bowl too. 9-4. This season reminds me of Mack’s first. Good team , but not great, lost some head scratchers but overall decent season
  21. No, I dont think any roomies ended up passed out in the yard. The roommates wake up and see the carnage and call 911, describes the scene etc..like others have said , they dont say "dead or deceased " on 911 calls as only the coroner, ME , Dr etc...can say someone is dead, so they call for help with for an unconscience or non responsive individual. No news outlets are saying there was an unconscience individual in the yard.
  22. Me too Bruin. I grew up in Southern CA in the 70’s-80’s before moving to Dallas. I would ask the barber for the Steve Garvey haircut everytime. is the SB for Seal Beach, by chance? Pacific Inn in seal beach was our go to spot for return visits to CA to visit family.
