  1. Felix running tonight in the 4x4 semis. Still hoping irby gets another shot. She ran for one of our rival schools and her hs coach is staying with us.
  2. Ran Pre’s Trail for my workout this morning. So I’m basically a distance runner now (narrator’s voice: he’s not).
  3. Will post more pics from tomorrow and Sunday. Not first row tomorrow. Wanted to be up higher to have a good view of the entire 4x1. Then Sunday on the home stretch. Hoping for some more special moments! And everything about this trip and meet make it my new number one sporting event of all time ahead of the Baylor mbb national title and watching the Indy 500 in the Andretti suite a few years ago. (Sorry humble brag. Just giving context of how unreal this is)
  4. My other head coach (hs track) and I bought tickets Wednesday and flew here this AM. Got a rental one mile from track for cheaper than a hotel. Today was breathtaking. Never been here before. Feel like a kid at Christmas again.
  5. Just stopping in to add my appreciation of the aggy tradition in Omaha and looking for another 2&Q!
  6. Season 2 very meh so far. Doesn't smack me with the same appeal as season 1. And maybe that's because I was on a sabbatical for a couple months when I binged S1 last September. S2 seems poorly written, forces the issue of her personalities/internal scenes, and the glaringly obvious bad choices she's made in the first two episodes like staring at the guy she was avoiding when mashing the elevator "close door" button instead of just turning her fucking back. I'll watch the rest, but only because my favorite shows are all on break right now and watching Breaking Bad and G-O-T over again for the 3rd time each needs a break every now and then. Maybe S1 was as bad, but I'm not going to go back and watch it now - or likely ever.
  7. A gaggle of goobers.
  8. 100% thought that’s what I was opening. Where is our sweet prophet?
  9. Thought the details you mention somewhat telegraph that is was coming eventually - imp nothing happening yet between the two. We'll see how it plays out. I am sure Rue will be super excited and it won't fuck with her sobriety at all. Am I the only one who was surprised Rue was back home? I thought for sure she'd be a drug-addled lackey for that old lady in no time. Didn't think the show would get too dark and involve human trafficking, but certainly thought she'd be stuck in that way of life longer.
  10. Well I've had enough internet for the day. Did that not make it as a thread on TOS? I don't even remember hearing about that on the news. Horrific.
  11. The Aristocrats!
  12. softball school.
  13. Username certainly does not check out. I have it, somewhat minor in my right ear. Probably from shooting without ear protection in the 90s. Been wearing muffs and plugs ever since. I just deal with it now. Haven’t found anything that works but mostly tried OTC and natural remedies and nothing with a professional ENT specialist. I haven’t been able to identify and triggers like alcohol or caffeine. But I definitely do use white noise to fall asleep. Very annoying trying to do so without.
  14. Wordle 228 2/6 🟦🟦⬛⬛🟧 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧
  15. I've seen a lot of dumb aggy shit over the years here and a the old site. I've never seen the gloves with a hole cut in them for their rings. Or the boot flare on their "coveted" boots. That vide of those fucking goobers sliding on concrete in boots and boxers is shit out of a bad movie. If anyone tried to make me do that shit in college I'd have told them to pound sand. But individualism and creative thinking are not aggy traits.
  16. Was going to name either one of our boys Agnes if they were a girl. Shockingly my wife was the one to point out how I wouldn't like people calling her Aggy. Wanted to name our sons after towns in Texas, or at least their middle names. I guess she didn't like Waxahachie.
  17. Damn. Sad. Also, not to challenge RD but didn't chick ball win aggy a title in 2011?
  18. made the homesick texan recipe for dart bowl enchiladas at christmas eve dinner with my family. that got me into watching schitt's creek because my siblings kept talking about and quoting the season 2 episode - family dinner. slammed and went hard as always.
  19. Now it's officially the Christmas (Advent) season. Gotdam national treasure, this story is. And this, this is pure fucking poetry, ""oooh like over thurr- look at the Santa up on the roof kids.” I know bitch I'M THE ONE THAT FUCKING PUT HIS FAT ASS UP THERE LAST WEEK"
  20. I kind of didn't like that part. I loved 2 when it came out. I was 6. I mean it's not a bad movie; it's biggest fault, imo, is that it just was not the level of awesome that the first was. My 4yo is really big into He-Man with the re-launch of the original toy line, my old toys and dvds, and the new netflix Revelation show as well as the way different animated series Netflix made (which I thought I'd hate, but actually really like - even being as different from the original as it is. My little guy cracked up at the beginning of #2 when Ray and Winston show up at the kid's b-day party and all of the kids start chanting "he-man! he-man! he-man!" I particularly liked the really subtle nods to the first movie. There are some obvious "hit you over the head" type throwbacks, but then some are really subtle and play good fan-service to the 35-45 crowd that lived on this stuff as a kid.
  21. Saw it last night. Been waiting since 1989 after #2 for the next chapter in the story. It was fun watching it through the eyes of my kids... my 11yo who picked up on almost all the references to the original, as well as my 4yo who is just starting to get into GB and remembering what it was like when I was his age. Oh, and I dug up an old shirt I had from GB2 back in the day... it "fit" in as much as I could barely fit it on. My 11yo was thoroughly embarrassed when I took my sweatshirt off in the theater and was wearing a t-shirt close to 2 sizes too small. The movie was good, not amazing. Better than the abortion reboot that came out a few years ago. The little girl who played the lead was fantastic imo.
  22. Thx. **sits back down with freshly-popped pop corn**
  23. I'm not a lawyer - somehow still ended up on here and TOS. Guess I'm just an average asshole. What was the DA doing to provoke a mistrial?
  24. One of my favorite podcasts.
  25. I saw that movie. Thought it was a comedy. Turns out it was a prophecy.
