  1. I'll chip in some money for the community as well.
  2. I watched the same plays on Clark as everyone else, both in the stadium and the rewatch. Dude definitely had a tendency to bounce, but on his handful of carries I also saw the entire line immediately caved in before he even got the ball more than once. It’s hard to run through a fucking pile of linemen. It’s pretty stark when you look at it from the end zone view.
  3. *inexpensive. Or you're really stupid. Hard to say which. Try to hide your erection.
  4. I can't believe no one else has pointed this out... Hey buddy, how many years do you think Brennan Marrion was on staff at Texas? How many years do you think Worthy and Whittington were on campus at Texas? I'll give you a hint: attributing WR development to Brennan Marrion when both of the WRs you cited were on campus both before, AND AFTER, Marrion coached at Texas is a hell of a fucking statement. The rest of your post is also hilariously stupid, but considering the first part immediately removes any possible credibility to your claims there's no real point in assessing the rest of the idiocy, is there?
  5. Other Ty a the shirt and that it’s AI? Fucking people are so dumb.
  6. lol IP address guys! Like those don’t change when someone moves. Or posts at work. Or from a Starbucks. Or changes service providers. and yet you’ve yet to deny a single thing I’ve said. Do you want to deny any of it now? you must be the other Persian ultra right nationalist who is absolutely fucking obsessed with the Houston Texans, right?
  7. Youve admitted you’re icono after lying about it. And they history is well chronicled not by me, but on multiple websites. And your brother, Fat Bastard. Oh, and by your own admission at the time. and you’re noticeably not denying any of it. It’s not a personal attack if it’s shit you’ve admitted online in the past. How is that a personal attack?
  8. I’m sorry @Macklemore which part of my post was inaccurate that warranted a middle finger? Are you claiming your first marriage didn’t end because you got high and fucked a bunch of dudes? According to some interpretations of scripture, you’re going to rot in hell for engaging in homosexual behavior. How does it make you feel to know your soul is going to burn for eternity, since you claim to be such a devout Christian? You know, other than all the gay sex, the lying and cheating, the breaking of marriage vows, etc.
  9. I'm sorry, why is this the most obvious scenario possible?
  10. I feel like you’re missing my point, which is that while they can all be examples of progress, the countries that prove progress doesn’t find a way are ones like China and Russia where there has never been any progress.
  11. I mean, not to derail, but you have to set a reasonable timeline. Everyone in Europe was ruled by a monarch at some point in Western Europe. It if they’ve been liberated for 200 years, that seems like progress found a way. Russia? China? Never been free. That doesn’t sound like progress always finds a way to me. and much of the middle east has gone backwards. America is going backwards.
  12. It’s a nice sentiment, but ask people in Russia, China, Brazil, Iran, Lebanon, North Korea and a fuck ton of other countries if the pendulum always swings back towards progress.
  13. @Zeus which part of this post was inaccurate and warranted a middle finger?
  14. @immamac Can you do something about the obvious misinformation in this fucking post? Hundreds of Deaths? Armed Wing of the Democratic Party? Meanwhile, the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers who have literally been cited by the president in a debate and have gone to jail for gun charges and sedition and a right-wing paramilitary group tried to kidnap a sitting Democratic governor. But there's no armed wing of the Republican Party?
  15. It's Jkates. He's one of the biggest cowards on this website. He doesn't post often because he gets his ass handed to him every time, but he lurks like a motherfucker and hands out negs and praise. He wasn't being sarcastic, I assure you.
  16. Pro tip, dumbass. When you paste something in rich text, it's obvious to the rest of us that you lifted that quote from somewhere else. Why don't you try citing your source instead of just passing off someone else's shit as your own. As another poster shared already, look at all efforts on good faith discourse: https://www.politifact.com/personalities/charlie-kirk/ That being said, I want to be clear, there is no space for political violence in this country, this is fucking horrible, and to be honest it doesn't end well at all for America. There will only be escalation after this, and it fucking sucks this is where we are as a country and species.
  17. This is a relatively fair post. I mean, if you want to be an old man shaking his fists at clouds, by all means, this site and this country and this planet are full of them. At least you acknowledge that it had a purpose, which was to bring money and facilities into the program that the team needs to be successful. That's more than some people acknowledge. For what it's worth, there were literally architectural reasons that the bowl couldn't be closed completely and that technically the SEZ is not connected to the rest of the stadium. Closing in the bowl, in no world, was ever an option. You could have tried to match the look and feel, sure, I guess. But that doesn't raise any kind of special money needed for the actual facilities and team resources aspect that was truly the goal of the whole project. It's just more bowl seating. And additionally, for what it's worth, UT's campus is not that big and it's surrounded by a pretty big city. There just aren't a lot of spaces where we can put things when we want to expand. When we have the football indoor facility that is being built now, we'll have a centrally located area of campus that will treat and handle all of our student athletes needs. That wasn't easy to pull off. Sometimes you have to make do with what you have, and I think we've done a pretty decent job of checking all the boxes, whether you hate the Disneyfication or not. I could have done without the longhorn outline, personally.
  18. You don't think I know who this idiot is? The fact of the matter he wasn't the only person expressing the "this is embarrassing" shit on this thread and others over time, so I'm going to take the opportunity to respond to him and every other short-sighted fucking slack-jaw in detail as to why their bitching is stupid as fuck. I'd like to know why they have different demands of the people in the SEZ that don't exist for any other season ticket holder in the stadium? Is it just some kind of Eat The Rich thing? Personally, I'd like to do more to encourage our well-heeled alum to support the program and NIL.
  19. Why are YOU so rabid about the empty seats at the stadium? I'm starting to believe you ARE a forklift operator. People bought the RIGHT to buy those season tickets every season, by stroking a huge check. You're now saying the Athletic department, despite entering into an agreement with a booster who has money and supports the athletic program, that they either: A) Go against that contract and take away their season tickets and say "Stay in this club on the field with barely any field visibility." Sorry about the money you paid us in advance and violating the contract. Please don't take away any other AD support and NIL." B) Re-Sell those tickets to someone with some kind of requirement that they show up to every game, which is not something that exists for ANY other season ticket for UT season ticketholders. That's your plan?
  20. "I'd guess that.." Because you don't know shit. You're guessing. Here's 2 facts in response to your dumb post: 1.) Without the club, the AD woudln't have been able to raise millions of dollars to help fund the entire SEZ project, now would they have million(s) of dollars of recurring revenue every single year for people re-upping for their seats. 2.) You're full of shit. I've been at almost all the big home games in the SEZ. Alabama. GA and Clemson last year. Those seats are almost always busting for big games against big opponents. Just like the rest of the stadium. Why aren't you so insistent and rabid about empty seats elsewhere in the stadium?
  21. The "evidence tends to point." You. Don't. Know. Shit. You're a 4 year old drawing lines in your own pile of shit because you think it's funny. The media area was deemed obsolete because we don't have the LHN anymore, and weekly broadcasts aren't a thing. And you need to understand something, let me highlight your post: "They're putting in more suites for even more expensive seating." That's right. They're putting in "suites." The gray seats aren't suites. They're SEZ seats. Suites are the big 10 million dollar boxes, the Loge Suites, and the Living Room style suites. That's the expensive seating. That's what they're building. Because the demand is for the high end shit. Not the gray seats, where people have to walk up and down flights of stairs to get from their club to their seats. You're so dense you can't even see the stupidity of your own post. "The stadium is completely sold out and we're at record ticket sales." You're right. Does that mean you think the stadium was at 100% capacity last weekend EXCEPT for those pesky gray seats? Is the stadium at 100% capacity for all of our shitty non conference games? It's never half empty? Here's a stubhub map for tickets for UTEP. Do you think those gray seats will all be filled? Here's Sam Houston. Do you think it's going to be full, and there's a line of secondary people willing to pay over 800 dollars per ticket to sit there? You can't even answer any of my specific points, you just say "Hurr durr we're popular people should want to sit there." People pay money to sit there. They just don't fucking go to all the games, LIKE VERY OTHER FUCKING FAN. You only give a shit because you see empty seats during extra points.
  22. Don't even try to sit and lecture someone about "where the value is" in a certain section, to people who have written huge checks for the actual privilege of having those seats. It's not One or The Other. It's the privilege, that you paid for, of being able to do both, when you want, how you want. You have no concept of how many of those seats above the gray ones are also empty, or sparsely populated, because it's harder to see. Trust me, they're empty and sparsely populated a lot of the time. You're making up conclusions to support your shitty line of thinking and confirmation bias. The value, is supporting your university, and having the money to do whatever the fuck you want without being told. That includes "It's raining and I don't want to get wet I'm going inside" to "It's hot, I'm going to stay in the A/C" or "I'm not going to the game, the opponent sucks." The people that show up may be more interested in the game. But I've got news for you, people like us are outliers. The richer MOST fans are, the more it's a social event. They're not diehards. The section next to us, we saw the guy who bought it on opening day, and that section has had people in a grand total of THREE times in the 5 years we've had tickets. Opening day year 1, seats he sold to some GA people and oddly last weekend. These are people that don't NEED to sell seats on 3rd party websites. They don't care. Those are also the people you count on to fund your Athletic Department to do the shit you want to fucking do, because Burnt Orange & White is showing up with a 200k check and an offer to buy out some gray seats who's behavior he doesn't like. Also, you're advocating a car dealership repossessing your car because they don't like the way you drive it. A car you paid for in CASH. Do you just think there's that many Texas fans out there that want to cut massive checks for the RIGHT to spend tons on season tickets each year to be told what to fucking do? Do you even realize how fucking stupid you sound?
  23. But you don't get one without the other. "Hey guy, you may like the club, and maybe you spend most of the time there, but I gotta tell you, now that it's Ohio State at home sorry you can't sit in your seats and watch the game." Also, the clubs down there aren't that fucking big. My money is that most of those season ticket holders aren't at the game at all.
