  1. This too is a good point. There are a million reasons CoA should have have tabled this for a later date but this is among the most notable. Truth is, we have little idea what the typical work day is going to look like once Covid has passed. Especially in such a city which is both as tech-based and adaptable as Austin. In fact, the only thing we can say for near certainty is is a lot more of our workforce are going to be working from home, or at the very least, working drastically different schedules moving forward. That much is unarguable. Whether that number is 10% or 50% we don’t yet know but it’s going to be significant. The difference between 180,000 vpd on MoPac versus 125,000 vpd is the difference between bumper-to-bumper August 2019 MoPac and cruising down MoPac during the Year 2000 (/insertConanObrien‘InTheYear2000’gif).
  2. This is where I am 100%. Money for more busses, rerouting of existing bus lines and, perhaps, even a couple more rail cars? Sure thing. Sinking billions upon billions into subways which will both be exponentially over budget and quite possibly antiquated by the time it’s completed? Abso-freaking-lutely not.
  3. If BYU and Nebraska want in the Big12 for one year (the latter ain’t happening because Grant of Rights and such,) the conference should agree provided both play every game on the road.
  4. Whatever happens in the next 24-48 hours, expect Ketchum’s ‘inside info’ to be the polar opposite.
  5. And had you likely got your wish a few years ago to jettison out of this shitty conference we’d all be on the sidelines with the rest of the Pac12.
  6. Only.The Best.People.
  7. Just finished S6. Solid show. If I had a year, I still wouldn’t be able to build a shelter half as nice as the one Woniya built.
  8. Thread should be titled the ‘James Ayala Innovational’. I wonder what our sweet prince it up to these days? Last I heard, he popped up somewhere in the Phoenix area. And it doesn’t matter how many tens of thousand of posts this thread hopefully ultimately contains, nothing will ever ever top Ms. Monica Vargas.
  9. FF don’t count when it rains three days in a row in most of Austin despite there being a zero percent chance of rain on at least two of those days. Take the win for what is historically Austin’s hottest and driest week of the year.
  10. Not that this was ever headed in the right direction anyway but the past 3-4 days have not been a positive one for the hopes of a 2020 season.
  11. Got damn that interview is infuriating. Look at the graphs Trump breaks out. Huge blocks seemingly filled in with his favorite crayon colors, most with only three or four reference points, yet you can tell he still has trouble grasping the information. Shocking. Even for him.
  12. This cell is so odd. Seemingly didn’t exist 15 mins ago.
  13. Dayum. Some of the best pancakes in the city. Hopefully they’ll be open Sunday when I stop by to grab some.
  14. He really is a waste of space. Am I doing it right?
  15. 2016: “I’m voting for him because he says what he means!” The next four years: “He didn’t really mean what he said!”
  16. Playing a few games in the fall only to have to delay it until the spring or cancel outright leads to hundreds or questions regarding redshirting, players opting out of a season for the draft, players who don't want to risk injury in a shortened spring only to turn around and play again in the fall, recruiting and contacting of recruits in an already arcane system, roster sizes, etc. I can't even fathom what a nightmare that would become. But I'm sure the NCAA has their top guys working on the matter.
  17. His long, drawn out pauses mid-sentence seemingly to grasp for a big word only to come up with one of his usual nine adjectives will never stop being funny.
  18. This fall is going to be so damn depressing.
  19. Movie theater are clearly going to survive because the #1 thing people are going to want to do once we have this COVID thing under wraps is sit inside a fucking confined room with 250 strangers for three+ hours!
  20. But yea, the MLB news isn’t good.
  21. The Garmin Christmas commercials from about ten years ago were some of the best ever created.
