  1. i am starting to think that this thread is likely to join keith richards and cockroaches as the only things that survive the nuclear apocalypse.
  2. the only spinny-spin play i like seeing for quinn is the crazy end around we did with bond against florida that we have not done once since then (presumably because bond has not been able to run it).
  3. also, i grew up in east texas and my grandmother lived in woodville. i can not recall a single time in history that they have had a competitive football team and now they have stomped their way to a state championship appearance. does anyone know what's up with them and where this came from? do they have a dominant stud at qb or rb or something? did they unwittingly hire some program builder of a coach with a bright future?
  4. a few of you guys have mentioned north crowley being significantly undersized for a state champ game team. don't they have one of the top offensive tackle prospects in the nation for next year's class? cunningham ain't little at lb.
  5. lulz, sometimes you don't click the name of the thread so that it takes you to the last thing you have read but instead, just click the last page. and sometimes when you click the last page, the first post of the page does not make a ton of contextual sense with the thread...particularly on here where thread hijacks are a sport. but then sometimes you click on the last page of a thread undoubtedly weighing the impossible tolerance of murder as a means of change with the necessity of change being so dire that drastic measures are necessary to get people's attention and you get this as the first post of the page. fucking love this place.
  6. quite literally the easiest dude on the planet to root for. all time great longhorn and an amazing guy. just wish we could have presented him with some more competitive teams to be a part of.
  7. yes, i went to the fort worth show back in september. posted some vids here: if you like hans, you will like the show. the setlist is pretty good right now though i would love to have a few substitutes for sure. their sound engineers are top notch and the show is great fun. they have a ball with it and you can tell. he also shamelessly went out and got like six of the most wet dream string soloists out there and dressed them up in lingerie for front-lining the stage which is fun. one cool thing about this tour is he actually has lisa gerrard with them doing the gladiator music which is pretty awesome. they kill it on that, pirates, the batman stuff, lion king, etc... i went ahead and got tix for 1/31 as well. i expect a great time.
  8. her parents got divorced in 2014 and had a custody battle. her parents got remarried in 2017. her parents got re-divorced in 2020 and had another custody battle. her parents got remarried in 2020. her parents got re-divorced in 2021.' this is the dad:
  9. That’s one of the more East Texas things I’ve ever heard. /lufkingrad
  10. Damn, way to go me. It is not easy to out-Helobious Helobious to Helobious. well done me. Honestly a bit of a shocker so far. who replaced wise with drew brees?
  11. completely understandable. thanks for the effort regardless.
  12. That is virtually everywhere. It is fucking extreme at the bernabeu. There’s like 100 gates and you have to enter your designated one. It was wild.
  13. Honestly, kind of depends on league and team. Are you talking premier league big 6 or ligue 1 matchup between Reims and Bordeaux? Most likely the former but it can absolutely depend on the fixture and don’t forget demand. I joined all of Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham last year and I was able to buy up to four for the spurs-united match but for Arsenal hosting Chelsea at the emirates that same weekend, there was fuck all available as one might expect. But seriously, if it is even a possibility to go to a game, just join the club. The membership fee is like a whopping $35 or something usually and depending on the team, they might send you some swag too.
  14. I mean…I guess? actually, no. I’m going to say no. We were 5-3 going into the 2019 game with two shitty conference losses already and kstate had two losses going into the game with us last year. They were exciting games that we won but at the end of the day, I deny your petition to characterize either of those as “big games.” Either way, time to get some home field juice back.
  15. canada accounts for 60% of our crude oil imports. we import very little natural gas but of the gas we do import, 99% of it comes from canada. that is natural since the only way to import it from other continents is through lng.
  16. and arkansas. and ou. we have been excellent against running qbs all year when we knew it was coming. it's not devil's advocate to point these things out. they are all true and they are things that need to be acknowledged and then discarded and completely irrelevant going forward. my bigger chicken little thought is that we really need to go out and win this game emphatically because it is a big game at home. no one has really talked about it much but we need to exorcise some serious fucking demons when it comes to big time home games right now. pretty much every one with big time national hype leading up to it since the 2016 notre dame game has been shitty. 2024 big home games: georgia (loss). 2023: no big home games. 2022 big home games: bama (loss), tcu (loss). 2021: no big home games. 2020: not really but maybe, maybe isu (loss). 2019: lsu (loss). 2018: west virginia (loss). i suppose you could maybe argue the usc game in 18 had a bit of hype but we had opened the season with a loss to fucking maryland so. it did jumpstart the one semi decent year we had in the 2010s. 2017: no big games but herman's big premier was a fucking loss to shitass maryland in the home opener. throw that on top of the fact that sark has had absolutely no postseason success at texas to date, anyone that just assumes that texas rolls this game against a 10 win conference champion that has been in the playoff seven times is silly. but we should win.
  17. how did i miss that hagbard was a pimphand sock? quick, someone ask pimphand about driving tips in scotland.
  18. man, no offense or anything but this post definitely recalls the old louis ck routine about flying. you just traveled from one side of the earth to the other side of the earth safely flying through the air and hundreds of miles per hour over a gigantic ocean sitting in a chair in a third of day and had three whole hours of inconveniences. that said, i will say that there are few things more psychologically and physiologically challenging (irrationally) to me than landing somewhere and having to just sit on the tarmac for an hour waiting to deboard...especially after a ten hour flight like that. it makes my brain start doing crazy things like imagining murdering everyone on the plane and everyone else i see for the rest of the day. so i hear you. but we are hilariously spoiled that said homicide inducing frustration results from an hour of inconvenience when i just took a trip in ten hours sitting down watching movies that for most of humanity's existence would have taken months and would have resulted in 90% of the passengers dying for various reasons before we got there.
  19. so i have done this quite a bit lately. it depends on what you mean by the "best" way to do it? The easiest way to do it is just buy hospitality. i did that with chelsea and arsenal earlier and it is a cinch. but while it is definitely the easiest approach, it is also the most expensive. i expect fulham wouldn't be that expensive though. so actually, i just went and found it. yeah, hospitality at fulham is not that bad. the matchday plus package for the bournemouth game is only £122.40. I would strongly consider that given how cheap it is. looks like their more posh hospitality packages are unavailable for the bournemouth match. https://www.eticketing.co.uk/fulhamfc/Hospitality/LandingPage just click fixtures and go to bournemouth. easy peasy. you're rolling the dice a little bit with the 18th but obviously, if there are tickets, that would be best. it's fulham and bournemouth so the availability on the 18th may actually be there. you could probably get tickets cheaper but will likely have to go through their fan club that you will have to register for (and likely pay a small fee). you will then be able to access the club's internal resale market which will be cheaper. but just comes down to how much you're willing to pay to avoid the hassle. that is a supercheap hospitality ticket (the chelsea-arsenal ones at stamford were between $700-$1K). also, hospitality usually gets you access to pitchside and other parts of the stadium you wouldn't otherwise be able to access. here is the rundown for that package they have on sale: https://riverside.fulhamfc.com/matchday-plus alternatively, you could just wait for stubhub but always a little more shaky on that front. i don't know if fulham requires you have the members card along with your ticket to enter like the big clubs do. when i went to the real madrid-man city champions league game in madrid in the spring, i had to meet a dude in madrid to get his cards. it was annoying. fulham might not have that though, don't know. but for sure with hospitality or buying a ticket if any are available on 12/18, you don't have to deal with any of that crap.
  20. i have to say, i have never encountered the surname cianfrocco before. that got my attention. can't imagine there are many of those outside of the northeast united states and italy.
  21. you have not watched the chaps this year then. qb redefines mediocre and the offense overall is pretty putrid. north shore rolls.
