  1. Cal's a freaking paste eater. Momma runs that place. Saw her sitting in the draft war room and just laughed. This ain't the River Oaks Garden Club honey.
  2. Yep. Amazing those guys got back up and did it over and over again. I know most have seen it, but just in case, the movie Twelve O'Clock High is a classic about this very era of daylight bombing.
  3. it's like we suited up three of the Jamaican 4 x 100m track relay team
  4. Luhnow on 790 just a little while ago:- Straw is exciting! Showing fans why we were so happy about having him up. Teams have called about his availability in trade talks but we have kept him out for now. Think teams believe we don't value him as much as we do.- What makes guys untouchable? Nobody is. But obviously the high profile guys will require an extraordinary return. Mentioned some recent examples like Kyle Tucker rumors.- Straw was in AA 2 years ago and we talked about calling him up for his speed in the playoffs for the ALCS and WS. Mentioned Fisher filling that role instead, scoring on Bregmans hit FTW.- Very happy with how the draft played out, mentioned a few players and their tools- Asked about disappointment with Correa situation: Reality is that players are always trying to be their best, even when it comes to getting treatment off the field. It is unfortunate, but nice to have a 10 game lead so you dont have to rush guys back. More important to have everyone healthy for stretch run. - Really appreciating that Derek Fisher is getting an opportunity. Something different this time around. He feels like he belongs in the majors, which is why we see him playing so well. When Springer and the rest come back we are going to have to push some guys down, but later in the year with expanded rosters it will be great that these guys are getting big league exerience.- On Corbin Martin: he will be back. The stuff is elite. How to sequence pitches and not fall behind is something to learn in AAA. Has all the weapons. Just focus on getting ahead instead of trying to nibble. Learning curve. Next time he comes up he will be even better. Mentioned DK's path in relation to Corbin, going through ebbs and flows.- Every night he gets a notification about Alavarez mashing, but people need to realize even Tucker is playing well down there. Want to bring Alvarez up but have him STAY up, and not flip back and forth. - Gonna continue to evaluate what we have in trades/acquisitions but will likely be active in the market as the season goes on. Mentions potential to obviously add rotation piece.
  5. Miles Straw running the bases is just as beautiful as Secretariat at the Belmont
  6. Tyler White is envious of Vogelbach’s conditioning
  7. college station alternate version
  8. the wife buys this stuff by the case load. The Medium has a nice bit of heat, the mild is too mild for my taste.
  9. I think he was also the fifth (maybe fourth) highest catcher rated in the draft. Good catchers are very very hard to come by, so the pick makes sense in that regard. Plus Lunhow is a damn Jedi mind freak, so we also have that going for us.

    2019 NCAA Regionals

    22 innings and counting of not scoring.
  11. my son is a D3 pitcher. I've flown up for a weekend and not seen him pitch, although luckily that has been rare. But I have seen him throw only one inning. Helps that I'm a baseball fanatic, so I tend to stand with the other Dads and pass judgement over the coaching decisions or lack thereof.
  12. make that the second biggest
  13. Correa bobblehead china doll giveaway night just announced by the Astros
  14. needs to be put in dry dock wherever she ends up. Galveston seems like a good spot,
  15. possibly one of the best leadership movies ever made. still used in grad school today to teach leadership.
  16. The Pass and Provisions shutting down (for good or just for the summer?). Tomorrow (May 25th) is the last day of service

  18. Cool, thanks for posting this. I always wondered if they planned for a mirror image building to go up on the empty lot next door, but then an oil bust/real estate collapse happened.
  19. appears no to pregnancy and yes to two warrants. One for allegedly assaulting the apartment complex manager and another for throwing a log through the windshield of a car. Bad decisions like deaths, sometimes come in threes.
  20. Prosecutor: Officer Smith, was it really necessary for you to shoot the the unarmed civilian? Officer Smith: Yes Prosecutor: No further questions your honor, the DA concludes this was a legal use of force.
  21. stayed in her hotel a couple of times in Carmel, so this hits close to home. She was an American icon. The good girl that all the boys (even Rock) wanted.
  22. and as expected Weatherford announced in their 10-Q that they will file for bankruptcy

    looks like you have a couple of Mexican places with decent reviews and new steakhouse XIT, and an all you can eat Chinese Buffet. Plus they have a Sonic which begs for you to go there and recreate the scene from Fandango - "I'll have two chili dogs and a malt"
