FINAL 2024 CFB polls/rankings - Texas #3/ #4 /#3 (CFP/AP/Coaches)
Yeah, he's pretty clearly grinding an axe. I think he was one of two people who had Notre Dame ahead of Texas last week... which was already absurd had you watched either of those teams play.

2024 Random Games thread
Last week vs Aggies, the network was putting up ND schedule, and pointed out "favored in every game the rest of the way!!!" It was laughable in real time. Anyone who had watched that game would have projected 2 or 3 losses, minimum.

Worst call since the Oregon onsides kick?

Gus Johnson sucks
Klatt has been generous when speaking of us for a long time now. He has a ton of affection for Sark, and for Sark's support of his sobriety.

The importance of the portal
Both teams in playoffs last year. Michigan sends 13 guys to NFL. Texas sends 11. Only one of these two teams looked "gutted" (as described by ESPN). We went out and completely reloaded our WR room. Added Mukaba, who was everywhere today. I know coaches must hate having to recruit every player in the country in every off-season (including their own roster), but since teams have to address their *immediate* needs every off-season, it's gonna be only slightly less consequential than recruiting high school kids.

Tell Me About Texas a&m
Yeah, Michigan was "gutted" by the draft, but apparently we weren't.

FINAL 2024 CFB polls/rankings - Texas #3/ #4 /#3 (CFP/AP/Coaches)
That's rough. In one of Mack's first few years, I think we played UCLA, Nebraska, and K-State... at one point it was like 3 of the top 4 in the AP poll, and maybe all of them on the road (I may be getting the year/teams slightly off, but it was something like that). Whatever it was, the OU schedule this year is pretty rough.

I'll be brave and take a (probably wrong) stab: First one has a little more low mids, so I'll guess that's the Ash Deluxe(?)

Week 1 Morning Slate - Georgia Clemson + others

TCU at Stanford, 9:30 on ESPN
Never has a team failed upwards on their first drive more than this. Starting with running the kickoff out of the end zone and getting KO'd. Bunch of gifted 3rd down penalties. Losing half a mile on a laughably bad reverse. Fumbling forwards to your own guys. Touchdown.

The Guitar Pron Thread
Yeah, that's f*cking ridiculous. I'm not sure if it's Gibson or Sweetwater who should be more embarrassed (insert "why not both" gif). I'm pretty sure Duesenberg PLEKs every single guitar they make, including guitars waaaaaay cheaper than 6 or 7K.

2024 Celebrity Death Pool
I met Donahue (and Marlo) in about 1984 at a benefit gala for Gloria Steinem's "Ms" Foundation. The featured speaker that night was Dabney Coleman - and yes, he was pretty famous at that time for playing male chauvinists, especially in "9 to 5," and I'm sure the irony of making him the featured speaker was intentional. I was Coleman's cue card holder for his speech. He was very cool to me. Donahue definitely wasn't afraid to give orders to the entire production crew (spotlight guys, etc) even though he didn't specifically have any role of authority. Both guys now in this thread. /csb

Greg Kihn -- RIP
The first song that my garage rock band ever performed live was "the breakup song." My bass-player friend and I were at a pretty good-sized house party, and another band had set up a PA. They took a break, and we asked if we could play a few songs and borrow their drummer. The next day, he defected and became *our* drummer. Great guy, and - by a lot - the most talented guy in the garage. I think he got a music degree from North Texas. Decades later, and we'll still text one another when one of us hears it come on in the grocery store (or wherever). It's still a great song. RIP
