2025 Christmas
Driving home after dinner last night, and I saw a house with their Christmas lights up and on. On October 14th, with the highs in the 90's. As I came around the corner and first saw the lights through some trees, I say "Oh no! Please no. Not already." My wife asks me what the hell I am talking about. As we get closer to the house, I can confirm it is indeed Christmas lights (they weren't up the night before, so I was hoping it was some sort of Halloween thing). The job was obviously professionally done, so I guess they want to get their money's worth.

Liverpool FC 2025-26: #20 in memory of #20 Diogo Jota
That made me way too nervous.

Liverpool FC 2025-26: #20 in memory of #20 Diogo Jota
During my narrow down phase, I took out Everton as an option, because my friend that follows/played soccer for 30+ years is an Everton fan. I couldn't root for the same team as him. It's more fun when we root for different teams, for shit talking reasons. When I told him last year I was going to pick an EPL team and start following them, he told me to pick Everton. That crossed them of the list immediately. Haha. He gives me shit all the time for picking Liverpool. Especially since they won the league the first year I started following them.

Liverpool FC 2025-26: #20 in memory of #20 Diogo Jota
I am excited about today's first game of the season. Last year was my first to ever follow a soccer team/league. Had my wife pick a city she would like to visit in England (I narrowed down the options to 6 cities for her to choose from). She choose Liverpool, so that became my team. I did not follow things quite as closely as I wanted to, mostly due to being busy at work, and I still have lots to learn about the game, the team, and the league. So, I am going to work on that more this year. I am closing my office at 1:00 today, then heading to my garage for beers and game watching.

Crystal Beach. Spent a month there one weekend 20 years ago. Woke up Sunday morning in the sand. Can still feel that hangover. Would not recommend.

Super Bowl LIX: Chiefs vs. Eagles
Will never root for the Eagles. Plus, Chiefs have a couple of Longhorns. I hope Worthy has 150 yards and 3 TD’s, and Charles O sacks hurts 4 times.

2024 Texas High School Football
Just got home from Graham/Brock game. Holy shit that was an ass whopping.

2024 Texas High School Football
I was at the Graham/Springtown game. It was a massacre. Especially the first half. After that game, I figured .500 record at best this season. At that time, I didn’t realize how weak Graham’s schedule was. I live three blocks from the school, and skipped the last two games because the competition has been so bad and games so boring. I will be there Friday. I expect Brock to name the score. But I’m hoping for an exciting game. I agree with everyone saying Graham shouldn’t be #5. Only team they have played with a pulse beat them.

2024 Texas High School Football
#2 - Brock at #5 - Graham I don’t expect Graham to be able to hang with Brock, but a top 5 matchup at home is pretty cool.

2024 Election "I voted" thread.
Yes. One I actually admire and is doing good things in this county. But as I told my wife when we got back in the car “All he has to do is vote for himself, and he wins”. Didn’t feel a damn bit of shame not voting for him.

2024 Election "I voted" thread.
Wife and I voted at the Young County court annex today. Took about five minutes. Only voted Dem, so did not vote in most, sadly . I didn’t even vote for some that I know and like, simply because of that R.

Liverpool FC 2024-25: Arne Slot NANANANA
That was frustrating to watch. That week off seemed to screw up their chemistry close to the goal. They played like shit down there.
