Just saw Donna at the restaurant under the Four Seasons. Told her to "treat yoself" and she replied, "Just did!"

Am I an Elon hipster because I started hating him back when I figured out he was a huckster playing 3 Card Monte w/ SolarCity and Tesla? Or when he was blatantly lying about The Boring Company? I mean, I definitely hate him because of the Twitter purchase/ruination as well, but it's not like it was a new thing.

Lacrosse isn't a UIL sport.

Love me some Chef Reactions!

Lamar fell off the face of the earth. They used to be so good. Usually when a program drops like that, it's because the head coach left (see: Earl Bill leaving St. Mary's Hall and them going from multiple title winners to the gutter), but just googling a bit shows Vollmer was still there up until 2019 at least. Their neighbor St. John's was an even bigger mystery, dropping from the elite to very meh, when they had the full varsity set up.

Eh, the privates have always been powers. For the most part (Jesuit excluded), it's their #1 sport for male students, and they are legit varsity programs vs club for the publics. Kinkaid was terrible for years - I honestly hadn't seen their name in 20+ years until they won last year....although I see they were in the F4 in 2022 as well. Seems they really benefitted from the playoff restructuring a couple of years back. ESD is a power and always has been. TMI Episcopal is the real outlier - that's a relatively new program that has gone from cellar to tower pretty quickly. They were terrible when I was reffing in the 20teens. I'll say this: the publics have come a LONG way. In the early 2000's, the privates DOMINATED. There were years when the publics were lucky to get a team into the F4. ESD was the only private in the F4 of AA and there were only 3 in the E8. A had 3 privates in the E8, 2 in the F4 TMI was the only private in the E8 in B 2023: AA: 3 privates in the E8, 1 in the F4, 0 in the CG - public champ A: 3 privates in the E8, 2 in the F4, 2 in the CG - private champ B: 1 privates in the E8, 1 in the F4, 1 in the CG - public champ 2022: AA: 3 privates in the E8, 3 in the F4, 2 in the CG - private champ A: 4 privates in the E8, 2 in the F4, 0 in the CG - public champ B: 0 privates in the E8, 0 in the F4, 0 in the CG - public champ

100% this is the worst part about the whole deal. The fans just lost hundreds of weeknight games. I'm honestly rooting for this to fail so hard and the viewership numbers to drop like a rock.

😭😭

Go into that thread - dude had a bad day, deservedly so: 4 corners parking: Parking in the crosswalk:

Air Force headed home after their series with Fresno State. Not the most comfortable, but taking a C17 to away series is baller af.

Been backing in since I was in my 20's. Working as a valet helps. I park however works for that particular spot. Depending on how the adjacent cars have parked at HEB, sometimes it's backing in, but 90% of the time, it's nose first.

In a heartbeat.

2024 THSLL Champions: AA - ESD A - Kinkaid B - TMI Episcopal C - Plano D - Hebron

Outstanding adventure! Congrats on your good fortune!

For reference, each military academy graduates around 900-1000 officers per year. 165 for aggy.
