  1. The Dude Perfect guys are the perfect aggy dork personified
  2. Oxford is fun!
  3. At least this wouldn’t be Arch’s first start
  4. It is absurd that two CFB teams still have six games to play this season. Can't imagine any NFL team taking Ewers in either of the first two rounds.
  5. So ... a Pyrrich victory?
  6. Dude, it’s ok to say he had a shitty game that night. This is getting comical. You have to have some skin in the Ewers game at this point. It’s the only thing that makes any sense at all.
  7. Our favorite GigEm Gazette writer “Pat” with some good copy this week: Former Longhorn QB completely faceplants in clapback attempt towards Trey Zuhn https://gigemgazette.com/former-longhorn-qb-completely-faceplants-in-clapback-attempt-towards-trey-zuhn-01jdmtf6eh0a Texas A&M is trolling the Longhorns in the cleverest way possible during rivalry game https://gigemgazette.com/texas-a-m-is-trolling-the-longhorns-in-the-cleverest-way-possible-during-rivalry-game-01jdgn59e538
  8. Pretty sure one of dotard's campaign promises was cutting insurance premiums in half. So why are Elon and every other economist out there saying we're not producing enough babies in the US? They know the only way for the US to continue to grow GDP is to have more people fueling the economy. They don't like the "imported" people even though they're the most cost-efficient and can be abused more.
  9. She's from Hawai'i. She and the boyfriend were together when the trip was planned and plane tickets were bought. They broke up but decided to both make the trip "apart" and were both on the Hawai'i-to-LA leg of the trip. He made it to NYC. Girl did not.
  10. I mean nobody saw this coming. Auto insurance costs poised for further rises with Trump tariffs https://www.insurancebusinessmag.com/us/business-news/auto-insurance-costs-poised-for-further-rises-with-trump-tariffs-515647.aspx?hsmemberId=1024080&tu=55D7E01A-A2EE-4DD3-8B33-867AD97B08C1&utm_campaign=&utm_medium=20241127&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_z6Dsvv-emwjYmGpEgyy8Z0QCqpU8sPp9SCW_yGisEOehpkJVFAhuNQalv3kj8Q9zRLS5fMq4zL_oRoPVUqP12505nm0O1g1zR7PNXe4JHAhvAHfs&_hsmi=335918526&utm_content=55D7E01A-A2EE-4DD3-8B33-867AD97B08C1&utm_source=
  11. Story I read a day or two ago said she wasn't alone at the metro station and appeared to be under duress. Also said there were several odd text messages sent from her phone to family saying she'd been hacked and had all her money stolen, something along those lines.
  12. California’s Newsom Sets Himself Up as a Foil to Musk and Trump Gavin pushing back already: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/ar-AA1uMU1m
  13. That lines up with a text I got from a friend this AM that said there's word going around that Quinn re-aggravated the oblique and might not play Saturday. Could be gamesmanship. Could be nothing. The parallels with the 1999 game are eerie, though. Freshman backup is son of NFL royalty, 25th anniversary of the Bonfire disaster. At Kyle Field.
  14. All things considered, Briles would've been a monster at Texas. He's a ginormous piece of shit and likely never would've gotten a look for Texas were it not for shadiness exhibited at every level but just looking at it in a binary sense -- Art Briles would've won hugely in Austin. Perfectly said. I was at the game and wasn't completely aware that he'd injured ankle so the second half performance was mystifying. It made a lot more sense when I realized the scope of the ankle injury. And, yes, I'm extremely confused why Sark didn't sit him to rest and put in Arch to hand the ball off, throw an occasional pass and get some much-needed reps heading into aggy and (hopefully) Georgia rematch. He had perfect cover to just say Quinn got dinged and we didn't want him getting hurt anymore when we were up 24-7.

    I've mentioned this before but one of my good friends is the chef who opened Al Biernat's with Al (RIP). Al was front of the house and James was the food guy. They had a falling out about 18 months into their relationship and James left and opened Tramontana and then Bistro Latino in Preston Center. Tramontana was a top DMN restaurant for the duration of its' existence. At any rate, James always told me if he was going out to eat anybody else's food in town on a big night out, he was going to Lola because of David. Then, I got to know David's wife Jennifer when she was the wine steward at Central Market on Lovers before Lucia. Lucia was great all the way around. We will definitely be going back.
  16. Yeah, I think I missed Bolden's 36-yard run from the OU game.
  17. I would expect him to have a high completion percentage with all the swing passes and other short throws with 3-5 yards of the LOS. We've had a real problem creating explosive scoring plays starting with Oklahoma. We've only had four TDs longer than 30 yards in the last six games -- all but one of them (Wisner's 43-yard TD run vs OU) came in the Florida blowout. Long drives are great but they're not as reliable because there's more plays that have to "work" to methodically move down the field. Hitting on just one deep ball per game makes the game much, much easier. 'Balls deep' was a play called many times by Marty Cherry during his time on the Forty Acres.
  18. What I mean is you are 1000% an apologist for Ewers -- basically the exact opposite mirror image of Derka on this issue. Neither one of you will give a single inch when the true perspective is in the middle of the two you. It might be closer to one than the other, and that's where the nuance comes in.
  19. And that will ultimately catch up to you against elevated competition, which we are about to see in every game from here on out. This is a good point. Throw a better deep ball, lead him correctly and he doesn't slow down and let the DB run into him for an obvious -- to everybody but SEC officials -- DPI.
