What new UT gear are you looking to buy this year?
The jersey I got for my kid Is better quality than I thought. It was ordered from Facebook Market Place, searched “Arch Manning jersey” from Austin. The same guys got multiple ads for these jerseys and I think he pretty much custom makes them for whatever player you want. It shipped from Dallas and arrived in 4 days. Maybe it’s black market fake Nike, but I can’t tell the difference and all the tags are correct to my untrained eye. It’s good thick cloth and everything is stitched on and looks durable and doesn’t appear to be cheaply done.

The Surly Road Cycling Thread
I don’t really ride road bikes much anymore. Every now and then when the trails are too muddy or when my son is home. I’ve resisted the urge to sell my road bikes, which both sit in the garage for the times when he wants to ride together. He’s home for the holidays for another week or so, so we’re heading out today for a couple hours. Time with him makes it worth the garage clutter. It seems like most of the riders in my circle plan routes with strava. I see it used more than the others for both mountain and road routes. The strava heat map is also a good tool to see where locals ride in a given area. I haven’t used it much, but I see it recommended a lot.

This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
You guys have some legendary hindsight. Not one of you would have questioned the call if the blocker came from a slightly different angle and got a piece of it.

That’s what makes the best jokes. If everybody gets it it’s kind of lame.

Official Coach Sark Thread of Dominance—haters back off
Has Sark ever mentioned delegating at least some of the play calling? After Quinn threw to Golden on the sideline on 4th down in the red zone on one of the early drives, one of the sideline chicks said Sark yelled into his headset something like, “What are we doing?! That’s way too dangerous of a play down here!” She made it sound like it wasn’t his play call and he was pissed about it. Was that Quinn going to a different play or does Milwee call some of the plays?

Fuck you, Arizona State
Who did Quinn get out played by? Leavitt looked pretty salty a few times when he made something happen while running for his life, but he didn’t outplay Quinn. Quinn didn’t really look great today until the end but he sure as shit didn’t get out played by Leavitt.

I don’t think puking on the sidelines id always, some indication of superhuman effort. Probably happens a lot more than gets mentioned. The guy played his balls off and for that he gets a tip of the hat. But we won, so fuck him.

Boeing 737 crashes with 180 on board in South Korea
Spoilers on the Max are fly by wire but that’s just to get them up quick on the ground. 787 and 777 are the only true fly by wire planes Boeing has built.

737 is not fly by wire. All the main controls are hydraulic and mechanical.

Updated Top 5 Texas Longhorns memories
The defense stopping Lindale White was my favorite memory of the NC game. The whole outcome of the game was in in question right then and there. But as soon as we stopped them you knew we were gonna win. The whole damn stadium knew it.

Boeing 737 crashes with 180 on board in South Korea
We won’t know what happened on this for months. The FDR and the CVR will probably clear it up at some point. Landing in that condition would only make sense if they lost both engines or thought they had an uncontrollable fire on board. But even under those conditions there are ways to get the gear and the flaps out. A couple of minor points that don’t change the big picture here at all… The 737 has both leading edge slats and leading edge flaps. The inboards are flaps and the outboards are slats. There is no fuel dumping capability on a 737. Flaps and gear are powered hydraulically with redundancies built in. An engine failure alone doesn’t prevent you from operating the gear or flaps. But if you do have an entire hydraulic system failure the flaps have an electric back up and the gear has a manual/gravity back up. A not so insignificant the point is that some EMAS installed at the end of that runway would’ve come in very handy there.

Official Coach Sark Thread of Dominance—haters back off
You should read slower. Nobody said they were the first 2 to result in touchdowns.
-
Official Coach Sark Thread of Dominance—haters back off
Obviously not his only two audibles, but the fact that they resulted in 2 touchdowns in the same game might make them a little more significant than all the ones that were just another play in the middle of a drive.
