  1. I mean, there's a legal concept of "consent" which none of these guys agreed to use their company logo, etc. That is a big deal. That being it seems like an agreement could be struck as well. As opposed to "Give the money back and we're going to sue the fuck out of you" which might net more money anyway.
  2. I live in Houston, and this is pretty inaccurate on a couple levels. The first one is that Houston ISD doesn't have a "west Austin contingent." I live in the Heights and Timbergrove/Oak Forest section of Houston, which is Central Houston, HISD, and homes that go from 500k to 1.5 million, at least these days. These are a lot of well-to-do families, votes blue, and widely despises Abbot and and TEA. There was no shortage of F Mike Miles yard signs anywhere around me. And by "no shortage" i mean every third house. HISD also encompasses River Oaks, West U/Rice Village, I believe Bellaire, which areas home prices blow Heights/Timbergrove out of the water. Now, do a lot of those kids go to private school? Yes. Are the expensive areas still somewhat protected even though they're within HISD? Yes. But you're talking about literally the richest areas in Houston that are within HISD. Lets not pretend these people are completely unaware of what's going on. I think a takeover in Austin won't make any more or prolonged media attention than the fourth largest city in the United States did...because people are powerless to do anything about it.
  3. Considering what's happened in Houston, don't consider your scenario to be too unlikely.
  4. New best score of the thread, boys. Feeling pretty good about my level of insulation from main stream American culture as it currently stands.
  5. At this point Im just assuming the DNC is directly behind Plattner's smearing.
  6. Do I give a fuck? That’s the answer
  7. Texas has made Michael Taffe a millionaire. Maybe he should whine less about its fans being ungrateful 20 minutes after a disappointing performance, before he’s even had a chance to hear or read any real criticism.
  8. I’ll be frank, I think a lot less of taffe after that press conference bullshit.
  9. Counterpoint: don’t tell me how to cheer for and evaluate my college football team.
  10. It’s ok guys, Immamac and Linux, renowned for their prescient and correct football takes, have this team’s back. This season had championship expectations. Single game moral victories are for Aggies.
  11. They’re not. You’re being a blind bitch. The video posted showed our qb quitting. Everyone knows the score but you.
  12. “Everyone is balling out except the coaching staff and half of the team.” ok, maybe everyone is only shitting on HALF of these guys and you can half go fuck yourself. im not sure what half of go and fuck yourself looks like, maybe a couple fingers or getting limber and sucking yourself off, but you’re a smart guy, you’ll figure it out. I have faith in you.
  13. Where did you hear this?
  14. How many TDs did you predict we’d win by? Was it 3 or 4? look at arch’s body language. All you need to know right there.
  15. I don’t think Javier’s is worth a trip to the Aria by itself if you’re staying at the palazzo. Just my two cents. Bouhchon sounds like a given. Piero’s for your Italian if you go that way.
  16. What CTJ doesn't say here, but which should be obvious, is that he's now planning several calls into Pauly Finebaum where Lewis Livinstone is going to gas about how he and his nephew Parker have been cooking meth in a trailer in Vidor every summer since he was 10, which by coincidence, was also the first year Parker stole a car and crashed it into a tree just to feel something. In the forthcoming weeks we're going to hear some very interesting members of the Stroh family hitting the airwaves, who I will remind all of you are Aggies, talking about how the ginger folk are some of the most efficient and successful fentanyl mules China has ever employed.
  17. Pssh. AIDS is basically neutralized these days. He and Magic Johnson have had it for decades. Meanwhile:
  18. But I had a great time. You know what else is a great time? Winning.
  19. Protection is for your mother and dirty sailors, sir. Give me speed and talent.
  20. I dont particularly care if he's a senior RB.
  21. Counterpoint, Simon and Clark are basically in the exact same boat as Terry. A true freshman and an injury guy who may as well be a true frosh as he works back into the game. If Simon "doesn't need to be playing" then why would Terry, a guy who has had less snaps at RB and is a tweener positionally? If he has a pulse there sure, but I'm not sure your basic criteria is any different for those guys.
  22. Counterpoint, they're a cheating SOS school, at systemic levels, with shitty asshat boosters.
  23. I'm starting to wonder if Uncle Johntay wasn't the dude selling him his drugs. Allegedly.
