  1. China doing their part to get more kids. They need more soldiers. The end of a tax break for condoms in China sparks health alarms | AP News
  2. With the higher salary you could retire a lot sooner and you don't have to go to any work.
  3. Blake needs a good punch in the face for not including Hill and having Nausea at #2.
  4. CPI released this morning. Damn high. Where is this under 2% Dotard keeps promising? CPI inflation report November 2025
  5. Only 1 source, but they are definitely battling for the bottom. Rankings: Education - States With the Best Education Systems
  6. There are still about 8-9 teams that recruit at the highest level and have a chance to win it all every year, so the odds are still low no matter where she transfers too. And why would that team have better odds than Texas? Neb is about the only one. Where does she think she's going to transfer too that: A) she knows she will be a starter B) gives her very good odds to win it all? I'd say the odds of doing both of those is very very slim. I don't blame her after the way she was treated this year, but moving to another top team and expect to have better odds of a NC and being the main MB is asking way too much. The only one I can think of losing a big starter at MB is aggy, but they lose so many it's going to take an incredible portal take to keep them at the same level. SMU? Don't know enough about them to know.
  7. Your pic doesn't show up for me, but winning a natty is an absolute crapshoot. Who knows which team is going to get hot at the right time? And the most likely? Just look at Neb. I never thought Texas would beat blowu in softball, but they got hot at the right time.
  8. Were you expecting all 3 to stay? I wasn't. Will certainly will miss her, but Texas needs a MB that can move quicker.
  9. Yep, that schedule certainly isn't very impressive and they lost to the only ranked team they played. I'll be very very disappointed if Texas does lose this, but more important than winning to me is no more injuries to starters.
  10. Haz pics!
  11. Should have signed Hardy before Mizzou. And wake me when Flood is replaced. The most meaningful thing a RB coach can do is recruit great players.
  12. I knowed that wuz coming.
  13. And I think it was Fran that mentioned Preston and Judd were shooting during shoot around. It's going to be interesting if Judd's first game is against MO. I hope it's before that.
  14. Did anyone really believe the committee would apply the rules the way they were written re: Texas? I'm not sure how people didn't see this coming with the move to the SEC.
  15. Yipee! Almost as exciting as the Tidy Bowl toilet bowl.
  16. They are a top 10 team talent wise and could beat anyone if they get hot. Texas better not be looking ahead to Prairie View. I'm glad the game is in Austin. I would probably pick them if Texas was traveling to CH right now. It would really help if 1 of the 3 OWI are back on the court.
  17. Because they're talented and could get hot. They haven't played like a team most of the season, but that doesn't mean they can't pull it together for 1 big match.
  18. OL obviously (3-4). I don't know why we need WR's? They all come back, unless Moore thinks he's a high draft choice, which I doubt. Two 5* WR's haven't even had a chance to prove what they can do. TE has a couple of studs, just young. Would love to get a stud at RB. Clark will probably portal, don't blame him. Even Simon coulda portal. I wish Baxter would portal. Shipley SR so K. Other positions if we can get a real difference maker.
  19. I wish there was more info on Crump. Rori, Maddie and Jordan will hit a wall if they keep having to play the whole game. Judd should be close to being able to play.
  20. We duh. You just repeated what I said. Of course you have to score, but having MP or any other hard server doesn't mean you score. And her SE's always gave the opponent more points than anything her serving did positive. Duh. Agroid scored 6 points in a row in CS with a fresh server coming in who had the the biggest lollipop serve Texas has faced all season. It gave them the match. Total lack of focus after a SE. That was the match. My whole point was Melanie's serving, or any other tough server never did contribute to winning. Duh! Damn, you think you're smarter than everyone else. Are your initials DT??
  21. I've been pretty critical of PK lately, but he certainly had an excellent strategy to slow up one of the best offenses in the country. That was the gaggies 2nd lowest pt total of the season and #1 was only 1 pt less. Great job PK.
  22. That sounds awfully contradictory. If you don't get the serve in you can't score from serving. The good teams never have any trouble passing any Texas server so who is going to put pressure on them serving? Melanie Parra is not on the team anymore, and even when she was her SE's hurt more than what befit the team got from an occasional ace. The good teams returned her serves like they were lollipops. It's kinda like in FB on 3rd and long and the DB thinks he's beat and grabs a jersey and then the ball is overthrown and woulda never been caught anyway. First and ten when you had them stopped.
  23. Damn would I love to have a 911. The 911 and 718 are 2 cars that don't ever lose much value. But just paying the taxes on winning one would likely be a lot more than the cost of the average new car.
  24. Maybe I should have said inconsistent. She was inconsistent when everyone else was, everyone but Binney. Rella had only one match where she was inconsistent and despite it being an easy dink over serve she's gone on multiple runs just because she gets the serve in. Texas doesn't have a special server this year so it's more important to get it in to the right location rather than trying to get aces. Some are going to fall in the right location and sometimes the receiver just screws it up, but I think with this team getting it in is better than a SE. A SE is what changed to momentum against ousucks and let them come back and win set 3, it allowed aggy to come back and win a set and thus the match in CS, and allowed KY to come back and win set 3 and thus the match in the SEC champ game. SE's are a momentum killer.
  25. It's clear to me she's not Emma or Zoe. And sometimes she goes into a serving error funk, which I don't understand because it's a simple dink over serve. Whether it's Molly or another Zoe somewhere Texas better get her. I real difference maker at MB like Cas-Ogwalla would be great too, but I know she's a Sr so I don't know who it is.
