    My big knock on DTV Now is the DVR sucks. And it shouldn't. This is cloud-based. Should be even easier. And only 20 hours? What? And I set it up to record "Rewind with Herman" and it didn't record. Then saw it later at night, set it up again and no dice again. Come on guys...

    There is a reason this is a lot cheaper than cable. But it's getting better. I have a Roku 4k Ultra and I prefer the remote 100x more than my Uverse remote. It's simple. We don't need channel #s. Have them in alphabetical order and you can create your own list of favorites. Plus this has a tv power button + volume keys. I only need 1 remote! This is bad-ass compared to the Fire stick (which I have in my gameroom) and there is no volume key. You still need your tv remote. And when I turn on the tv, it goes straight to the Roku home screen. My kids don't watch Directv Now; they watch Amazon Prime or the Cartoon Network app (which we sign into using DTV Now user/pass). It's more intuitive. We don't need to change inputs unless I want to watch my BluRay which is rare.

    Jimmy reminds me of Worm from Rounders. There is a great scene in Rounders when Worm is hiding at their old school and Mike is trying to stay straight. The garbage can is going to land on Kim's head. Jimmy turns into Saul then.

    Looks like Kim is bored and needs the crazy... Sadly, this won't end well for her because Jimmy made it to Breaking Bad and someone is taking a fall somewhere sometime... Are we being led to beleive that the safe full of money at Nacho's house money he's skimming from the Salamaca's? And the new guy is there to find out if he has been?

    Texas OU set for 11am

    My guess is the young grads and college students are still going hard Friday night and sucking it up on Saturday morning. And the beauty is they are the ones who can rebound. And I won't be 100% on Saturday morning either... I can suck it up as well.

    Texas OU set for 11am

    RD3 replied to mdmost's topic in Football

    11am has been a national slot for ABC for years. 2:30pm was the regional slot that they would put 2-3 games on. Remember the maps we would use to see showing what part of the country had the eastern, central, and western games? Or they would do the ABC/ESPN mirror for the 2:30pm game (in your area the game would be on ABC and the other game on ESPN). The 6pm ABC game was a new edition around 2005.

    Texas OU set for 11am

    This. Folks, the Cotton Bowl is 100x better than it used to be. And when they added the upper deck in the endzones the stadium was vastly improved. Restrooms are much improved as well. But @TornACL @TXSooner518 I think we need to have a sitdown with our good buddy who runs the stand that we set up shop up cuz I don't think he has the cheap beer anymore...

    Hear hear. The only time I've been to Jerryworld was for the Texas / UCLA game which was technically a UCLA home game. I'm glad I went but it didn't feel like a college game. I'd go to the "Cotton Bowl Classic" there or the Big12 title game but that's it.

    I'm not a fan of the 11am game unless it's Texas/OU. And even then, we have had it at noon a few times and I prefer that more but I actually like 11am more than 2:30pm for this one.

    Michigan/Ohio St is at 11am CST every year. Most Big10 schools didn't even have lights because night games are a recent deal. Texas/OU is the Cotton Bowl and that's what makes it great. 11am, 2:30pm, it doesn't matter.

    Financial discussions... current events it is!

    This thread has gone in an interesting place. Why no more pictures of the crazy chick?

    Does it go in Gambling (since the stock market is almost like Vegas)?

    What board should that go? Is there a thread already?

    We upgraded to the Visa Signature Southwest card. It is looking promising that we will be getting the Companion Pass for next year as well and the bump in points for this bonus helped. I also subscribed to Motley Fool for $99 for the year for stock tips and I got a bonus of 5400 points. I have been listening to their podcast for a couple of years and they convinced me on their "War on Cash" bundle and ended up buying Visa, Square, Paypal back in March and those have been on a tear... BUT to be honest the 5400 point bonus was the reason I sucked up and pulled the trigger. Behind their paywall, they had some other stock tips that I bought with. I also got the Rapid Rewards Shopping button for Chrome to get more points as I shop online.

    The way it started off, I thought maybe it was Dr. Tim Whatley.

    We went on opening weekend just due east of Uvalde. We limited out off a field and a watering hole. It was my 2nd time dove hunting there but last year it was slow which from my friends apparently that was not normal. But what surprised me is they were all mourning dove. Not white winged. Great time, lots of beer, we smoked a pork butt... just that game sucked.

    I was an undergrad at the same time. I remember one of my friends brought a big plastic flask of vodka to the 1996 Texas vs Missouri opener. Huge thunderstorm at halftime, we got drenched. During the break, one of my buddies pulled out the flask and a naive friend of ours asked if he could take a drink... He then started drinking the vodka like it was water.... because he thought it was water (and was thirsty). He spit it out like a champ. I haven't snuck in a flask in forever though. A buddy of mine used to sneak in a bunch of airplane Crown Royals back in the day which was not something I complained about. No need anymore with the beer sales.

    I've got a beer with your name on it next time I move... And of course, there was more to it than 7-11 beers. But those were some cold ones.

    I have a Roku and I watch LHN via Directv Now app but not an LHN app. I'd dig an LHN app if they had it...

    The only Bucees I stop at is the one in New Braunfels and I stop there every time I go to NB or San Antonio. Restrooms as noted are clean, cokes are cheap and my kids love their Icees. But I could not imagine that being on my regular rotation of gas stations. My personal preference is the HEB in Bee Cave in between my house and office.... In & out quickly...

    The 7-11 off Bee Cave & 360 has quite possibly the coldest beer fridge I've ever encountered. A couple of years ago, I rented a Uhaul truck to move stuff that I wasn't paying movers to move and I stopped at that gas station when we were done. I bought 3 beers for me + 2 buddies. Hit the stop like none other. 3 years later, it's still cold ass beer. But that store is a dump and I wouldn't ever buy their coffee or food...

    What do you mean? There is a standalone app for LHN?
