  1. Greg Brown retweeted the staff tweet. Hmmmmm...
  2. Yay! I can watch Texas hoops again! I've been following games on my phone for 4 years because I haven't been able to stomach actually watching us play.
  3. I was there in 2004. An 8-year-old told me to fuck off. I enjoyed the victory.

    These are all original pressings. I never did get my hands on a good copy of "Rid of Me," unfortunately. PJ is easily my favorite artist of the '90s.
  5. This commitment makes me really happy. My nephew was a senior DB for Flower Mound during the 2019 season so I attended all of the games, and Auburn has a really strong leg. He's also a really nice kid.
  6. That 22-point loss to a decent-but-not-great Xavier team didn't do them any favors, but they have played very well since then.
  7. Do you not realize that Dallas is wearing the road jersey they used from 1980 through the late 90s? They had a blue one too, but this was the primary road option.
  8. My two favorite teams are Texas and UCLA. Fuck my life.
  9. Holy shit. That's all I can say. HOLY SHIT.
  10. And to grab some fries with gravy and cheese from The O!

  12. Yeah, I was happy to see this today. Had to hook up an old Chromecast to watch some U.S. Open on the big screen this weekend and I'm glad I won't have to mess with that in the future. I'll probably shell out the $5 now just for the Premier League games. And yes, hoping HBO Max follows suit in the near future-- they have to cave eventually, right?
  13. Colt survived the final cut-down today and is officially the Giants' backup QB. https://www.giants.com/news/giants-roster-2020-nfl-season-new-york-announce-53-man-roster-joe-judge
  14. I'm sorry, but these are for smuggling booze INTO the stadium. If you then choose to use them as a means to empty your bladder during the game, be my guest.
  15. I knew when I paid for the tickets in April that I'd never get to use them-- just wanted to keep my seating priority. I've had my seats for 30 years and I'm not about to quit now, but there's no way my 53-year-old double-cancer-survivor ass is going to a game until it's safe to do so. I love football, but my immune system is a shitstorm and I'm not an idiot. My answer to the survey was a solid "I will not be attending," and UT's response basically said "You're down as a no and if you change your mind, you need to call us ASAP." I was also told I'll get a call in mid-August about my refund options. Of course I will let them keep my Foundation donation, but I'm gonna want that $2000 for tix back. I do appreciate that UT is offering a refund as an option and not just a credit-- I imagine that many other organizations/schools will not be doing so.
  16. Sorry, I see this info is on the 20/21 thread. I looked for one but didn't see it. Anyway, cool to playing Nova again.

  18. The Athletic just released their way-too-early Top 25 for next season. Gonzaga is #1, Baylor is #2...and Texas is #18. They love us because we lose nobody, have seven players returning who scored 20 points in a game last season, and they expect Greg Brown to be on campus. Hmmm, I wonder what could possibly derail such lofty expectations?
  19. I see we are a little down right now about our boys, but I have a question-- does anyone know anything about getting tickets for the game against UTA in Frisco in a couple weeks? I have searched EVERYWHERE on line and cant find a legitimate ticket outlet. Hell, even StubHub doesn't list it. They have to be on sale somewhere, don't they?
  20. Timbuk 3 sat next right next to me at Springsteen's Austin show on the "Tunnel Of Love" tour. They held hands the whole show. It was fucking adorable. The singer from Spoon was in the seat next to me when I saw McCartney at Jerry World like 10 years ago (note: my wife recognized him. I had no idea). I saw Chad Lowe (sorry, wrong Lowe) at a Cowboy Junkies show in Dallas in the late 90s. Saw Peter Reckell (Bo Brady from "Days Of Our Lives") at a Sting show at the Greek Theatre in '96. Tom Hanks was down the aisle from me at a Springsteen show at the LA Sports Arena on the "Wrecking Ball" tour. Wait-- did I just follow Chad Lowe and Peter Reckell with Tom Hanks? I think I did! Anyway, that's all I can think of, which is odd given the number of shows I've attended in LA over the years. There is one big ALMOST in this category though. Back in '92, my band was playing around Dallas quite frequently and I had to give away U2 tickets at Texas Stadium because we got a Friday night Trees gig, The Sugarcubes opened that show, and my friend Laura thanked me the next day for the tickets (they were great seats) and for the chance to talk to Bjork-- who sat next to her for the entire U2 show. UGH.
