  1. Coaching apparently makes a difference.
  2. 'Cats score. Fun game so far.
  3. After seeing quite a few 'tubes of the Meatchicken game, and hearing various talking heads processing the lavish praise for the team in general, Ewers particularly, and Sarkisian overall for both his superb play-calling and being a working CEO putting the whole package together... after all that, I was considering what stands out for Quinn, as compared to last year. Lots of talk about improved footwork, and that's for sure. He doesn't try to "make a play" on every single snap - he reads at least two targets every time, and he takes what's available, or throws it away, and that's big. But I think what stands out to me is that he has stopped self-sacking. There were several instances when the pocket was collapsing around him and he stepped up and hit his target. Last year - like the preceding one - he would have tried to get out the back and wind up giving up a big sack. It's also apparent that he sees the Defense much more clearly, both pre- and post-snap, and knows where to go. Not only are we better than we thought, we're better than we hoped. Damn, I'm looking forward to Georgia's visit. Hook'em
  4. Not a derail, just a bit of clarification. This is from late August in the "tell me about 0U" thread.
  5. Not about her looks.
  6. Bad analogy. Linda Lovelace sucks.
  7. TXST is technically not an acronym. It uses two letters each from two words, and unless you pronounce it as a word - maybe "text" or "tikst" or the like - it even fails that test. Maybe you could call it an initialism or some such term, but it's not even the first two letters of one of the words. NOTE: Old guy here, I still think "Texas Southern" when I see TSU.

    Getting old sucks

    Made it.
  9. You've spelt "eye socket" incorrectly.
  10. Definitely Surly motto-worthy.
  11. News. I have some for you. Twenty is young. Maybe you're 12 and living in your grandma's basement, but for the rest of us, 20 is young. Besides that, it's gonna be a few weeks before he gets to double digits worth of games started. Nobody is saying he's a great QB... but in many ways, he's one of us. oneofus.gif Hook'em
  12. Bump to extend props to Maalik. Hook'em
  13. The correct default action is ... none. If you do it, 50-50 it shouldn't have been done. If you don't do it, 50-50 it should have been done. Either way, you're an asshole for not remembering what she mumbled told you clearly. Save the effort.
  14. Need an APPLAUSE!! sign and a LaughTrack machine.
  15. Big Shit Sandwich is a damned fine band name.
  16. It's what your vet does when you tell him you need that bitch to get her vocal cords nicked so she can't bark all damn day and half the night. If your vet is a Good Ag he won't ask any questions.
  17. Laryngectomy.
  18. If you're using Chrome, the Just Read extension has been cutting through paywall popups for me for a good while now. It also unfucks bizarre color combinations and presents clean, readable text. You go to the page you want to read and then click on Just Read extension... presto!
  19. Maybe Kinne can give Sark some pointers...?
  20. While that's gruntling, keep in mind they were overrating Meatchicken before, so... grain of salt and all that...
  21. Don't eat your candy in the lobby. We've got ten more games in the regular season, and at least a couple are going to be against better teams than the Fightin' Weasels.
  22. Damn, Notre Dame is paying for that win over aggy. Kyle Field and the 12th Man clearly whipped the Irish in every aspect of the game except the much-overrated scoreboard. So badly beat up is Notre Dame that they are struggling with a sneaky-good Directional Illinois. The aggy curse strikes again - WHOOP!
  23. I need to listen better - I've only heard unwanted anal leakage, which I would have thought unneedfully clarificational.
