    Getting old sucks

    I signed up for another season of soccer this week. Not because I really want to play, but because I know I'll never play again if I take a season off. Sucks for someone who blew his first couple of years at UT because one spent 6 hours a day at Gregory, playing basketball.
  2. LOL. Or, he could look at the other one.
  3. I just wanted to give props to @RomaVicta for his comment after the 1st aggy post. I bit my tongue from laughing so hard.
  4. I'm at Lockett's high school right now. Y'all want me to ask him where he's going? /Kidding. Don't tweet or stalk recruits
  5. That's effing ridiculous.
  6. Set pieces have been shit today.
  7. Ok. I'll take it.
  8. Our right CB (#4) cannot complete a pass.
  9. Yep. Plus. Didn't see Panama's goalie until about the 20th. The US seems to have turned the corner now.
  10. Watching U20 against Panama. Apparently Todd Bridges is a better coach than anything we have domestically.
  11. Not impressed. Worked by both teams with a pulse. Mihalovuch over Luna or anyone else is a joke. Yes, he had a sweet goal, but he should not be invisible for such long periods of time considering his position (and age).
  12. 40 lbs at an airport? Seems like an intelligent idea.
  13. We are of the same mind. BTW, how stupid was the Jeff offer? That had to be manufactured for drama. Why would Danni or Greg ever remotely consider that option?
  14. Question for you Houston folks. I'm making my first trip down since the 90's. Son is touring Rice. I'd like to hit up one of your area's specialty BBQ spots. There are a couple of qualifiers, though. 1. Driving from Johnson Space Center, up 45, to Dallas. 2. It'll be a Sunday. 3. We don't really have the time or patience to go through a long line. Any suggestions?
  15. FYI - The U-20 team is about to play Guatemala. 4PM. Central. If they win, they go to the U-20 WC next year. Game is on FS2.
  16. I liked that episode. Building a working axe seems like both the easiest and hardest thing to do. In retrospect, it appeared as if the way to win was to either build amazing tools (like the one dude did) OR cycle through them quickly. I.E. just keep chopping. There seemed to be several times when all of the competitors were fixing and not chopping. Also,, wouldn't you want to kind of chop in a circle and flake off the wood? Hitting it straight on weakened the axes. As per Lindsey. It appeared as if her 2nd attempt had the proper hook, but she wasn't using it correctly. The limb looked like a treble hook, but she was only using one of the hooks. It spilled when she picked it up. She should have but the handle through both "hooks". (There was a closeup shot that made this fix seem obvious.)
  17. No offense, but fuck that. I hate the Joneses as much as anyone, but I was born a Cowboy, and I'll die a Cowboy. If I thought boycotting would cause the Joneses to sell the team, I'd be first in line. They won't, and I'm not changing my loyalty.
  18. I started to make a new topic for the Olympics + the U-20 Concacaf tourney which started last week. The US beat the bejesus out of Jamaica. I think it was 9-0. They're playing again tonight on FS1 or FS2. I think it's at 9PM CDT. I'm not as in to these tourney as I was in the good old days when Bradenton was around. IIRC, quite a few eventual US stars went through Bradenton - Donovan, Dempsey (I think), Gooch, a few others. I think the first Olympic game is Wed night.
