  1. If Williams enrolls in December and plays college baseball in the spring, then he would forego the MLB draft for 3 years.
  2. he didn't just disappear for two years - he had a total blowout of his knee and spent a good chunk of that time rehabbing.
  3. Ross tried to get back on the team. He even showed up to the Houston game as a fan. They didn't think the juice was worth the squeeze.
  4. I would gladly sign up for some sort of brain procedure that would delete my impulse to hit the lateral button when I want to juke.
  5. that was a really cool angle on the sideline during Mitchell's game sealing catch against TCU (3 min mark).

    How are they going to make a movie about tornados, set it in Oklahoma, and not expect me to root for the tornados?
  7. we'll always have your 2022 Texas high school football state championship picks. #neverforget
  8. I'm glad they are shining a spotlight on these folks. Sam is fantastic. Travis Vlantes and his staff is a major reason why Texas is so successful across all sports.
  9. just to piggyback on this a bit - being an effective recruiter obviously has many facets. To the extent that one of those facets is the relational/personality piece, Baker is very well equipped. Maybe not quite Tashard Choice level energy/charisma, but he will be very effective at that aspect of recruiting.
  10. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/32818403/dallas-mavericks-luka-doncic-admits-having-issue-weight-conditioning - 2021 https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/style/nba-star-luka-doncic-changing-170000062.html - 2022 https://www.si.com/nba/mavericks/news/luka-doncic-slovenia-trainer-dallas-mavs-star-next-step-in-shape-usa - 2023 As someone who loves seeing the game played at the highest level, I'd love to watch an in shape Doncic do his thing. I hope for the best but am definitely skeptical.
  11. I still can't believe the winning chef in a semi-final served a totally inedible mousse. That was the kind of dish that gets you sent home 4 episodes in. It wasn't even a particularly difficult challenge! I know it has been beaten to death, but yikes the talent level is low this season. There isn't a single chef remaining who would make the top 6-8 of a halfway decent season.
  12. it takes an impressive amount of cognitive dissonance to say Doncic's defense has been only mediocre at times when, a few posts earlier, there is a graphic showing the three highest blow by percentages in a playoff series in the last 10 years were Doncic this postseason. https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/luka-doncics-defense-hits-shameful-levels-with-mavericks-on-brink-of-being-swept-by-celtics/
  13. Just an FYI - not exactly sports psychologists, but there is mental health support in the Department.
  14. "Do I have access to $500? I absolutely do, I'm a 43 year old man."
  15. that strike call was brutal - not even close on its own merit, let alone with the way the zone has been called all game.
