  1. Hopefully more depth/rotation but we’ll see. All of the smoke seems to be around us and Wilkins, in which case it seems likely Greenard is gone and we address the other DE slot in the draft. I do like the idea of putting a badass next to Anderson rather than across from him but we’ll see very soon..
  2. Because he’s only on year 3 of his rookie deal, fat aggy offers no cap savings if cut, so might as well keep him on the roster and see if the light goes on. I’m not holding my breath…
  3. Lot of depth/rotation signings today - Desmond King, Eric Murray, Khalil Davis, and lifetime Longhorn Kris Boyd. Good to get some depth pieces out of the way before Monday. Only saw details on King; $1.8MM base/$2.2MM max, and his deal has to be the biggest of the four…
  4. On either OG shaggy or still HornFans after that dude died there was a link to a post on some site where people were telling JD Horne stories. Someone connected to him from law school (his advisor maybe?) told a story about being at a happy hour and JD saw some chick and was like “Hey, I think I know her”. Dug into his wallet and was like “Yeah, she gave me her business card one night. I’m gonna go over and move in”. He walks over to the chick, talks for a bit, and shows her the card; next thing, she yells something at him and storms off. He comes back to the table and they’re like “JD, what happened?” He laughs and shows them the card, on the back of which he’d written (apparently to jog his memory the next day) “Dumb as shit - big tits”…
  5. Yep, no way to fall low enough to play Tuesday or rise high enough to get a bye until Thursday. Looks to me like we’re locked into playing OU again no matter what, which would be 2:00 on Weds….
  6. You left off Liberty Lunch and the Ritz…
  7. Looks like Schultz (7.9) and Fairborn (1.6) only have a $9.5MM cap charge in 2024, so still almost $63MM in space….
  8. If you could combine Chop’s athleticism and frame with Latu’s technical ability, football IQ, and motor you’d have a top 3 pick. To be fair, Chop has been lauded for his effort and Latu is not unauthentic, but there’s a reason each is in the discussion at 23….
  9. “Forced” my ass, Methusaleh. You were the original inspiration for Jive Talkin’…
  10. Fucking mind blowing how much the momentum has changed around this franchise since the last game of the 2022 season. Future looks really bright for a change. I’d love to back up the proverbial Brink’s Truck for Chris Jones but that realistically wouldn’t be a good call right now. Wilkins is a really good player, and as the article notes he’s durable as hell…
  11. That’s where I am on the signing; if this TE draft had the depth of last year’s it might be another story….
  12. Absolutely; Keilan’s got a chance to carve out a 10-year career in the NFL with his special-teams skill alone, and as a bonus he can line up in the backfield from time to time, giving you more roster flexibility…

    Getting old sucks

    Don’t be a fucking homo…
  14. My God we have just completely fallen apart…
  15. In the 1980s in Texas it was called Payment In Kind (PIK). Don’t want to Cloak Room this shit up based on some of the dipshit comments downstream, but there are very legitimate reasons to intentionally not plant certain crops on a certain section….
  16. It’s almost like we had a football game and not a track meet…
  17. I’d move Mims and Thomas to the ‘maybe’ line and add Laiatu Latu to this list, but yeah pretty much everyone else is in play at 23. It’s too bad they don’t have the draft before free agency instead of afterward; I think most GMs would rather be able to just pick talent in the draft and plug roster holes in FA…
  18. El Arroyo marquee from several years ago: ”If a vegan does CrossFit, how do they decide which one to not shut up about?”
  19. Saw that at the old Northcross Mall theater my sophomore year at UT. As me and my girlfriend at the time were taking a left onto Anderson some completely shitfaced (it was like 4 in the afternoon in the middle of the week) fat chick in a Taurus blew through the light and t-boned us. We smacked heads, banged into the car in the opposite lane, was a fucking mess. Chick sprinted out of her car back toward Burnet immediately; girlfriend’s dad heard later from his insurance company that she’d already had like 4 DWIs…
  20. Leiter had a scoreless inning with one K and one walk; really want to see him get it worked out….
  21. I’m thinking whoever CDC’s peer was in 1923 fucked up by not snapping up the Aztec Club coach; look at that turnaround in only 3 days! You know that shit would have cost like $150…
  22. Narrarator: He does….
