  1. About 10 years ago, my best friend, who's a HS football coach in Seattle, flew down and we went to the state championships at Jerryworld. Celina was playing West Orange-Stark, and before the game, Celina's cheerleaders dragged out and lifted up a big "run-through" sign that said, "FOOTBALL. FAITH. FAMILY. NOWHERE BUT CELINA" with the Celina logo and a big cross on it. My friend looked at me and said, "I thought these were public schools?" I said, Welcome to Texas.
  2. Maybe a few years back when they lost 4-5 games, but not this season when they're loaded and #1.
  3. That was GA Moore.
  4. We had a yard sale one time, and there's zero reason to put price tags on anything, because they just make people ask for a lower price. "Will you take $2.50 for this chair?" Me: "Dude, it's only $3..." I told my wife that we should have put $1000 tags on everything, because someone might have offered $900 for that colander just to get a deal.
  5. I had the same reaction, but it turns out that that's just terrible terminology:
  6. To his credit, this was a pretty solid response: Because in that town, he could easily blame the situation on Hunter Biden and antifa and people would fall all over themselves to support him.
  7. Yeesh: https://www.fox4news.com/news/celina-isd-under-scrutiny-after-coach-faces-charges-student-photos
  8. Holy fuck, Bill Elliott is a god in that town.
  9. You really think there's going to be any federal funding?
  10. You gotta be fucking kidding... Gimenez?
  11. Which means Penn State's hockey program has more NIL money than North Dakota or BC or Denver or BU. Michigan State supposedly had the 2nd-highest bid, $400K.
  12. This is fucking shitty.
  13. It's honestly sad that this is the line I still use most from Arrested Development:
  14. Penn State is paying $700K for a freshman hockey player.

  16. ^^^^^^^ The Kingdome was an absolute shithole, but it was still better than that. That might be the worst MLB stadium in my lifetime. Edit for the lulz:
  17. username really checks out.
  18. Shit, should I change this, or wait to be recruited?
  19. I dont think they got asked to sign it, did they?
  20. I had to chair a hiring committee for my department a few years ago, right after Dan Patrick pledged to end tenure, and that wasn't a very fun topic to discuss when every person we interviewed asked about it, and that was after we got a surprisingly shitty applicant pool. I can't imagine what this is going to do for hiring at UT. Actually, I can... every single exceptional candidate will not bother to even apply, and UT will be stuck with a bunch of 2nd-tier candidates who will expect to be paid a large salary premium for potentially having to deal with this shit. They're going to get subpar faculty because everyone exceptional will go to UCLA, Cal, UDub, Michigan, tOSU, etc. UT will become A&M.
