  1. I mean what does it even mean to salute the vets by giving them this match-up? Is this some form of art imitates life college football-style?
  2. I can’t remember what I was doing 30 minutes ago, but I see that 57 Oilers jersey and immediately can recall Lamar Lathan. The human mind is pretty humorous.
  3. My high school used that as their motto back in the 80’s. “We may be small, but we’re slow.” Got them five straight district titles.
  4. Who wants to be the person who tries to play the course wearing a shirt with a picture of Obama on it?
  5. Before there was Shohei Ohtani there was TFG. He was so good at baseball that people begged him to give up the sport because he was dominating it at a level that wasn’t fair.
  6. If I came into that level of money the only thing I’d do is build a moderately sized house in a South Pacific country and give the rest away to people in that country who need it.
  7. Should’ve went. Could’ve gone as the pedo bear for that game.
  8. Because teenagers don’t care about being annoying.
  9. I’m glad SOC is ruling the roost like this. I hope they go on a title streak like the basketball team did 20 years ago. DISD got laughed at for so long about no commitment to football that it’s pretty cool that SOC was the one to bust down the door and stay relevant.
  10. Well there you go. That’s a good reason. The Horns have had some phenomenal backs over that span. Ricky is still my favorite.
  11. I shouldn’t laugh, but that’s hilariously funny. Can’t wait to see Mickey and Minnie’s Bonnie and Clyde remake.
  12. I mean how is this possible? This is a school that had Bettis, Lee Benton (great college back), Ricky Watters and a whole host of other talented backs over the years. It doesn’t seem possible.
  13. Not as upset as the employees you pay like day laborers.
  14. So how does one guy claim three different awards? It’s cool and whatnot and doesn’t matter, but just more curious than anything. I don’t keep up real well with this stuff.
  15. I like their coffee and their main location is right down the way from me. I’ll be buying that for sure.
  16. Your understanding of fascism is something. I don’t care one iota whether you agree or not. He asked the same question repeatedly. I answered it the first time and he kept asking the question even though I answered. That’s it. Your state is a clown show and your state is getting exactly the representation that it desires. She has an 0.0 percent chance of winning a senate seat in a state run by fascists and is wasting the time of a candidate that has a greater than zero chance (Not much, but greater than 0) of winning so yes this is a waste of 3 or 4 months of time doing this.
  17. He drained the swamp the same way Houston does. Clean it up and then deluge it with the next big hurricane. He’s Hurricane TFG. He drained the swamp and installed a bigger and better swamp that you’re not gonna believe!
  18. Well you said what you thought about this, but you kept asking me a question I already answered. What you are wanting to see would be ideal when fascists are not in charge in Texas as well as DC. You have contested primaries when an exchange of ideas matters. None of that matters right now. When the fever grip of fascism is broke and the nation decides to do a reset politically then what you want to see would be cool. You cannot do anything like that right now and hope that it’ll be a good thing. It will not. Ms. Crockett made a poor choice in doing this. She didn’t read the room. To be honest doing this is more ego-driven. That doesn’t change how I view her as a politician because they all have to have a certain amount of overconfidence to make politics a career. She is not going to get rural voters to support her though and people like my uncle will vote for Ken Paxton or Cornyn again even though he has nothing in common with either of them. Maga folks would rather die poor and in bad health than elect her in Texas thanks to fascism.
  19. I worked with a guy who wound up marrying a server he was the manager of. He was 17 years older than her. The age difference doesn’t matter, but man when you are someone’s direct manager you probably should use better judgment.
  20. You don't want the bigger prayer. It's a doozy when it shows up.
  21. I still use this line sometimes.
  22. If I had to put co one that I would want to see win it would be her, but for the reasons you stated it won’t happen and I also find that extremely disappointing. So incredibly ignorant to judge her because she is a black woman and one that has no qualms about voicing her thoughts. I love that about her. I have only been in relationships or dated black women since my 2nd year of college. They’ve all been women who work twice as hard as their white counterparts and I can say that they were all exceptionally intelligent as well. All beautiful too, but that’s another story. I say that to say that I feel strongly about seeing black women in the halls of power. The more the merrier.
  23. What a time to be alive.
