  1. Ehlinger's ability made the line look better than it was. I looked it up. We had two offensive linemen get drafted from the Herman era -- Sam Cosmi and Christian Jones.
  2. Yes, he used the quote Trump said when discussing another school shooting where he said, "We just have to get over it."
  3. As others have said, when you're that completely despised your margin for error becomes much, much thinner. So, guess you could say it was a little Column A and a little Column B. The easy answer is we have too many uber-wealthy alums, who like sports (especially football) and they're rarely all aligned. Other programs might have one or two monster swinging dicks that call the shots. We have dozens probably at that level and they're not afraid of rattling sabers to get closer to their preferred outcomes. I don't recall the line being all that stellar under Herman.
  4. Michelin Star awarded to 57-day-old restaurant in Dallas: Mamani. https://www.dmagazine.com/food-drink/2025/10/mamani-michelin-starred-dallas-restaurant/
  5. Most professional sports team owners are MAGA AF or at least MAGA adjacent.
  6. Only playing 30 minutes seemed strange. The sound was horrific for him. I thought at the time that maybe we were too close to the stage but Lord Huron sounded perfect there. It just wasn’t set up for him. I’d like to see him in a smaller venue as the headliner where it would better translate.
  7. My Weather Channel app has no radar for the hurricane in Jamaica. AccuWeather does, however.
  8. My wife and I really wanted to see Kevin Morby open so we were there around 7:45. Morby went on at 8. I think he's doing the Houston show too. He only played for half an hour and was off the stage at 8:30. Lord Huron came on at 9:05. The pit area at Toyota Music Factory can be very small. It was last night. We were only about three "rows" deep and decided we'd stay there until we didn't want to any longer. (We stayed there the entire show.) Maybe catch the beginning of Lord Huron and move back a bit. Not sure what the setup will be in Houston. Oh, it's a scene alright. We enjoyed it. They couldn't get into most of the theater stuff when we saw them headline at High Water Fest back in April. Great show but it was "just the songs." I thought the visual aspects of the show were spectacular. Had kind of Fallout Pacific Northwest feel to it. They played a terrific set and this is easily in my top 10 shows of the year, maybe top five -- though that's getting a little crowded as we get to the end of the year and we've got Luna in early December.
  9. At this point if he runs, he wins. They will cook the books so fucking hard it's not even funny. The only chance we have is somehow winning majorities in the 2026 mid-terms. We lose those and America is lost for most of our lifetimes. (And I have doubts on whether the '26 elections will be "fair.")
  10. Lord Huron show was pretty spectacular.
  11. It will not end well for the trillionaires. It might be their kids or their kids’ kids but somebody will pay the price for what they’re creating.
  12. I have no idea who this is and she doesn’t have many followers but … I want to believe. https://www.threads.com/@mo_verna_m/post/DQU-elWkpyL?xmt=AQF0lzLI6oscp5evl9TlrMMtKJqi4nrCJdvKjikkUMDhLw&slof=1
  13. Didn't we determine you were a few rows behind my wife and I at the Wilco show (I think it was Wilco) at Toyota some months ago?
  14. I looked it up and probably posted it here several years ago. I think he played in that event twice and didn't finish much higher than 62nd (if that) the other time.
  15. Daily Beast: https://archive.ph/DeX2q
  16. He was also +33. Gonna be hilarious if he turns out to be a better player than Flagg.
  17. I hope so. I've got both McBride and Benson in my high-dollar fantasy league -- and I just lost Skattebo.
  18. Miami Herald: Venezuela claims capture of CIA group, accuses U.S. of plotting ‘false flag’ attack https://archive.ph/lqPsQ#selection-1127.19-1127.102
