  1. We all know stormtroopers can't shoot for shit, right? So when they capture Leia at the beginning of the VERY FIRST movie, the troop leader orders a wide stun field so that they can just knock her out and capture her. Why do they NEVER use this wide-field stun again? Seems like it might have been helpful on many occasions...
  2. I’m 2 episodes in and I just don’t know. The performances are good and there are some genuinely good moments, but the fact that we’ve already been subjected to two down-tempo covers of “Another Day in Paradise” and “We Built This City” is just lazy and manipulative. If episode 3 contains a slow piano version of The Jam’s “Going Underground,” I’m going to throw shit at my TV.
  3. i have watched "Steel Magnolias" many times. Many, many times-- including last night when I stumbled upon it on one of the movie channels.
  4. This Boise coach is reminding me of some early 90s comedian who wondered why athletes and coaches always praise Jesus but never blame him: "We would have won if Jesus hadn't made me fumble."
  5. Also— best flight delay EVER.
  6. Watched the whole second half at an airport bar in Columbus sitting next to a guy with a nephew on the OU squad. He is not happy.I rather enjoyed it.
  7. My wife and son are flying to Ohio next Saturday for Christmas. My ass will be driving down to Austin for the game, and my flight to Ohio is Christmas Eve. I booked it this way two months ago— you know, just in case…
  8. You walk him and pitch to the rhino.
  9. Great way to start the weekend! Hook ‘em.
  10. As a completist, I own every Dylan album but must admit that there are many I've rarely played. For the past few weeks I've just been hitting shuffle on the entire collection-- It's a wild ride, man. So many fantastic deep cuts, especially on the Bootleg series. How in the hell did he not put "Blind Willie McTell" on an album? Or "Series Of Dreams" and "Dignity," both of which could have made "Oh Mercy" a masterpiece? Of course, you also run the danger of running into "Wiggle Wiggle" and that's two minutes you'll never get back...
  11. On Friday I made the hour-long drive to the Plano HEB because my autistic son loves that place. While we were checking out, the checker says, "You know we're going to kick your asses, right?" "Excuse me?" "My Aggies are gonna destroy you on Saturday. You won't wear that Texas shirt again." "Well, I guess we'll see, won't we," was my only reply. Yes, I'll be making that hour-long trip again today. And I will choose my check-out line very carefully.
  12. Chip Kelly is the OC who just called that abomination of an offensive game. His lazy ass should be fired immediately, not promoted. And this UCLA fan is loving every second of it.
  13. It’s weird to watch a crappy home game without having to listen to Lowell…but I like it.
  14. Just poured a vodka gimlet that was almost all vodka. I'm out of bourbon and had to watch the kid all day and didn't want to take him into a liquor store, so I'm going to order booze on UberEats for the first time. Let's get this done.
  15. Of course! We hit the LBJ location regularly and have even made a trip or two to the (much smaller) Plano location. There's an H.E.B. near the Plano Josey and he loves that place too. He's definitely my kid.
  16. We are definitely driving out to Arlington for a visit to Forever Young records. It’s his happy place (and mine too!). That should take up a few hours.
  17. I just remembered that all DISD schools are closed tomorrow, so I have to take care of my 6-year-old autistic son all day. That's probably going to minimize my planned heavy drinking self-medication throughout the day. It's going to be a long day...
  18. Voted today in East Dallas. Felt really, really good. Let's get this done.
  19. Already drinking the liquor in an attempt to alleviate stress. Go Dodgers.
  20. Saw James & Johnny Marr in both Austin & Dallas on Sunday/Monday. It was a pleasure to see Marr play guitar in person for the first time, and what can I say about James? Top five all-time band for me. If you know, you know.
  21. WTF with UTSA wearing orange jerseys??
  22. I’m a Uverse user in Dallas. A friend has Comcast and gave me his log in, and I was able to download their app to my phone and Roku and can stream ESPN with no issues. Many of the channels on the app are blacked out if you’re not on your Comcast Wi-Fi, but ESPN channels work just fine. Thank you John!
  23. Notice the lack of defensive (specifically secondary) players in your post and you have your answer.

    I have Uverse so it’s blocked on air and in the app, but I am able to watch the Spanish ESPN3 broadcast in the ESPN app on a Roku. ESPN3 link wouldn’t work on my phone app with same log in (weird).
  25. They could play a show made up entirely of b-sides and it would still be spectacular.
