    I was more confident last year going into the RRS than any I can remember. After attending 30+ of these in person, you would think I would know better.

    As brutal as the QE turnovers were, the defense really shit the bed. Gabriel killed us time and again with his scrambling, Ran for 100+ that day when he only ran for something like 350 yards total the entire season. And then the secondary breakdowns on that last drive were just gut wrenching. So many self-inflicted wounds. This team should have a really bad taste in their mouth from last year. I know I do.

    I agree with every single word of this…

    What’s the best way to get out as quickly as possible? I’d love to stay around, but have to get home by 7.

    Assuming home is somewhere Dallas-area, I would park in the hood east of the stadium and take Haskell/Military Parkway all the way to 635. Anything at all going west or north from the fairgrounds will be a complete clusterfuck. It’s not the most direct route but at least you’ll be moving.

    It opened at 7 AM in 2017. I looked at the timestamp of some pictures on my phone from that year. Have one from inside the fair at 7:39 AM. 

    Yeah it opened way, way before 10AM that year. I have pics at 9:17 and was well into it at that point…

    I kind of think on that first pass they were just hoping to burn us or get lucky with a PI. The other two plays were dumb

    Why? If they’d run the ball on 2nd and 3rd down we’d have stopped the clock after each play, meaning they’d have been punting in exactly the same situation. We’d have had one timeout instead of three but that didn’t matter; we got the ball with 7 seconds left, the other two timeouts didn’t mean shit.

    the coaches need to stop fucking around and accept who we are offensively and start giving the ball to Dell and Diggs.

    There are only 5 teams in the league who pass the ball a higher percentage of plays than we do. This isn’t fucking Madden…

    I bought vip tickets to Cosm in LA to watch this on the dome. I have no idea what to think. Like last year we should mudhole them.  They don’t have a QB worth a shit. Our offense will pummel. We need the defense to show zero mercy

  7. Isn’t the ‘Memorial’ part now specific to anyone who died in combat, regardless of when? I fully realize that it was originally dedicated to casualties during WW1, but at some point prior to adding DKR’s name didn’t that change ‘officially’?

    Tend to agree, though Tanya Tucker - Texas (When I Die) might be worth a shot.

     

     

    Hah man there probably aren’t 1,000 people in the stands on your average gameday who can karaoke that song.

    fucking 5 year olds who grew up in Dalhart know every word to Sweet Home Alabama…

    i’m trying to remember the last time a famous athlete said something that was so universally poorly received. scrolling twitter yesterday like half of my feed was people (random fans, accounts with 1M+ followers, hoopers, female hoopers, everybody) just destroying aja wilson for this. as if a)she’s not a rich kid who lived a privileged life and who was born with nba genes, and as if b)the only reason white girls can hoop is because of some imaginary “privilege”.  people are crushing her. worst take since john rocker opined on the folks using the nyc subway system?  mot sure. either way, the more that the wnba players and their product get the attention they’ve been demanding, the more they turn people off. terrible sport full of shitty people. shame.

    lol you’re a big EPL fan right?

    Texas...

    Several meters high….

    Alabama and West Virginia fans have this one on everybody. As many great songs as there are mentioning/featuring Texas, they generally don’t lend themselves to firing up a crowd at a game. Shit the one that probably comes closest is All My Exes Live In Texas, and he’s talking about how glad he is to get the fuck out of here. 
     

    On the other hand, who the fuck isn’t going to sing along to Sweet Home Alabama or Take Me Home, Country Roads? There just isn’t a Texas-centric song at a sporting event that can hold a candle to those two…

    What do you Rangers fans usually do in October? Astros fans aren't used to this free time.

    I’m sure October is fucking insane stocking WalMart and Target with all that Halloween shit. Why aren’t you doing it this year?
