Entire squad, including caddies, headed to WS this weekend. https://www.golfchannel.com/news/us-ryder-cup-team-take-scouting-trip-whistling-straits-weekend Anyone on Surly want to grab their clubs, head to Wisconsin, and see if they'd let us play a few practice rounds with the team?

This would involve good sound football logic and common sense coaching. We're Texas. What are you thinkin'?

I'd be happy watching him beat the shit out of Azinger who commented nine millions times about BDC "calling out" Cantley.

https://www.golfchannel.com/news/patrick-reed-returns-tour-championship-after-battle-pneumonia Curious to see how well he plays. Also, I was listening to the Fred Couples show on the golf channel on the ray-dee-o and Couples said if Reed is healthy enough to play he is a lock and should be on the team. Called it "an absolute no-brainer" or words to that effect. I was surprised truthfully about how adamant he was about it.

going tomorrow night for the first time. looking forward to it.

Agree. Give it a fucking rest.

bryson is a damn freak.

Bjorn tweets he's trying to figure out a way to prove Cantlay is Canadian. Hilarious.

16, 17 and 18. God damn clutch right there.

I'm sure Texags thinks he's the greatest mind ever.

Saw the Stones 6 or 7 times over the years. The most recent tours were the 2019 shows in Houston and DC. I think he was 78 at the time and never left the stage as I recall. RIP Charlie Watts. Rest well.

Snek on Aisle 7. https://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2021/08/18/snake-in-sydney-supermarket-lon-orig-tp.cnn/video/playlists/atv-trending-videos/

Well . . .maybe not. https://www.golfchannel.com/news/patrick-reed-withdraws-again-citing-ankle-injury

Prob a good idea for Strick to put those two together. The Euro team will get too distracted watching over them.

My Blue Heaven actually.

The interaction between Steve Martin and Rick Moranis was unbelievable.

He's a dick. And a cheater. But he's in. He'll win points.

Jordan's in. Reed's in. I agree with the comments about Reed having balls. Dude gives zero shits.

I'm 58 years old. We moved to Houston when I was four when my dad went to work at NASA. My parents met in Austin as UT undergrads in the late 1950s. They took us to Austin several times a year until I graduated high school when I then moved to Austin to go to UT. During those four years at Texas, I cannot count the number of concerts I saw at the nine million venues, small to large, to see every type of live music. Two to three per week, no exaggeration. Moved back to Houston and continued to travel back to Austin many times a year for football, music, parties, weddings, etc. Our son then moved to Austin to go to Texas from 2009-2013, another reason we regularly visited. I had never heard of Nanci Griffith until her death this week. I have spent the last two hours watching Youtube and listening to her perform. I really can't put into words how sad it makes me feel to never have heard her sing or perform. In fact, after watching and listening to her, I don't think I've ever been so sad to hear of the death of someone that did I not know, but had never heard of. I wish I had been introduced to her music before her death. With all of my/our ties to Austin, I am beyond disbelief. Please don't dump on me. I just don't understand how I could have missed out on her. RIP Nanci Griffith. RIP.

Just heard that jury duty has been suspended in Bexar, Travis and Jefferson Counties.

First game I can remember watching -- 1969. I was on an Indian Guides campout and all the dads and kids crammed into the welcome center or whatever it was to watch. First game in person -- 1977 v. UH. The game where Earl ran into Bevo. First game as a student -- 1980 vs. Arky.
