  1. I’ll hate that if true, but….. Barry seemed like younger Barry (the hair) when they pulled the mask off. May have just been messed up from the mask but he seemed like the younger version in that quick shot.
  2. Shiv has the most concern for the greater good but still couldn’t let it override her own selfish agenda. She makes the call to Nate and let’s them know ATN’s plans and they probably cut a deal to kill Gojo. But she tried to have both.

    Yeah. Ferreira is lame. He’s peaked as a nice MLS false 9 but should never sniff national team again. I wish MLS fans came up with opponent specific player cheers like the UK does (The one about the Sunderland pedo to Yankee Doodle was the best). Would have been perfect time for it. Come up with something that is more family friendly that would also get under opposing players’ skin. Just a little tired of same ole same ole from South end, but we aren’t any different than other MLS teams in that regard, I imagine. Back to the team, Claudio’s, and I guess, Wolff’s roster building has been really bad. It doesn’t help that our two most prolific players from last year are hurt and one of our two most talented players is playing with the under-20s. But it also doesn’t help that of the DPs that are not hurt, one would be on the bench but for injuries, and the other is replacement level MLS. Just a disaster. The city is starting to get distracted, and folks aren’t going to come out to 100 games this summer if it isn’t fun.

    Zardes can’t play for us anymore. It’s fucking coaching malpractice. We are so much more dangerous without him.

    Both of Redes cards seemed wrong from the stands.

    Gyasi Zardes is the Javale McGee of soccer if Javale McGee missed 75% of his dunks.

    The new burger on the PHP Brewing menu is legit.

    Steak

    Yeah…. This is the worst “high end” steakhouse in Austin by a few miles. We went there last year with some clients at last minute because only place with reservations. Inexcusable bad and u prepared servers for the prices they were charging.
  10. They knew the oysters well and the cocktails and knew the basic stuff that wasn’t on menu (made a great Negroni that wasn’t a straight 1:1:1). But ultimately helpful is probably a euphemism for able to manage their time to both get their job done for rest of bar, cover the orders from the tables, and hold a conversation with the dipshit (me) sitting at the bar asking questions.
  11. Checking this place out near work. On 3rd between Colorado and LaVaca. It is packed and seems fun. Overpriced but oysters were good and bartenders seem smart. Will be interested if they can make the margins they need to cover the overhead. But recommend coming in at 4:30 or so and bellying up to bar. Talent has been spectacular.
  12. It’s fine. I’ve been there a few times. Bartenders are cool and helpful. I’ll go back but it isn’t a home run by any means. A nice single and stolen base. Prefer Salt Traders on the way home. More options.
  13. So after being irate he got the platform last night I’ve calmed down, listened to Pod Save America, and refocused. - Only 3m watched live. - It was full of sound bytes that will be run by Dem PACs and the Biden campaign in every swing state for next 18 months. - It signaled the worthlessness of CNN as a political player on the heels of the destabilization of Fox. 2024 is all about turnout. Everyone has made their minds and if they haven’t it’s a cover that they are voting for Trump. Trump said a lot of insane and repugnant shit last night that can be run on loop and was unapologetic about it. Just get out the fucking vote and flip NC to kill the electoral map for good for the GOP.
  14. So, again, the dems are playing this too diplomatically. Hefner is actually pretty adept at answering without answering and not looking completely ridiculous (like the woman trying to prevent cities from enforcing gun laws). The Dems need to go harder at him. He is winning these exchanges, and probably chucking to himself as he turns back around to his colleagues. Some depo/x-exam specialist needs to start writing the questions for the Dem side of the lege because they are failing right now.
  15. Lincoln? Lol. I mean he was a great president but not sure solving divisiveness worked out for him.
  16. So what are chances CNN does this right tonight and let’s the crowd loose, questions-wise. I have to believe there were some negotiated ground rules but they are skewering Trump on the shows today. A slow motion Car wreck will bring in viewers via word of mouth. I hope given that this is a naked ratings grab that they take the time to fuck with Trump while they have the chance. I would suggest that a news outlet should be fair and unbiased but fuck Donald Trump. He doesn’t deserve any quarter.

    Where is Musah next year if Valencia get relegated? That would be pretty stunning if it happens, but they are only safe by GD right now. I just want all of these guys to get PT even if it is middle table next year.
  18. Yeah. On the fucking air? Bob. Jeez. That said, I always presumed he had it in him for some reason. WVU had quite the portal class. Perhaps some of those folks will get released on he Huggy Bear gets fired.
  19. Not sure who the House Rep asking Hefner the questions, but she let him off way too easy and was horrible at framing the questions. I get that there is probably some consternation re: "decorum" given Tennessee and Montana recently, but god dammit there is a relatively easy way to frame the questions to make this guy look like a fucking fraud. He won that exchange when you take the substance out of it. I mean, she is right, but she never made her point. "Don't you understand the drama..." GTFOOH with that weak bullshit. "What is the value of every school board being forced to vote on letting clergy in?" "I don't think it's a problem to know where they stand on the issue and this is how it was drafted and went through committee and I don't want to change it." "Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get you aren't going to change it. We all get it. But I asked you what the VALUE was. You didn't answer my question. I don't think it's a problem for every school board to vote up or down on salisbury steak or square pizza on Fridays, but I also don't see the value in it. Many people see problems with what is in this bill though. You clearly don't. But I asked you for the value of it. That's what I want to know."
  20. Yeah, but a rumor gets out about India issues, even if false flag and not true, Gojo stock drops. I get that it will make Ken/Ro look foolish for selling a false narrative, but it also hurts value of Gojo stock presuming people trade on that false info. That in turn means the 50% of value of acquisition attributed to stock is more shares of Gojo to Waystar stockholders and more dilution to Gojo stockholders. I also didn't see anyone go to the bathroom at the party so I'm out. Too unrealistic.
  21. To what end would the India thing be a false flag? That’s the only thing I am struggling with. Not sure how that devalues Waystar. Perhaps it let’s Mattson pull rug out from under kids. Did I miss a comment about Tom getting canned that set him off? I didn’t recall it but could have missed it.

    So I’ll be the one to say it…. Redes was effective last night. As was Rigoni. With Fagundez and Druissi out and Zardes ineffective would like to see a line up with Bruin and Urutti out there at same time from start. Hopefully the Serb can play soon so we see what we have there.

    Zardes almost Zardesed that. But nice run of play.

    Curious why Cascante and not Ring is captain. Does Ring not want to do it anymore?
