  1. Player of the year should be split between position players and pitchers. It's really difficult to try to compare the two. That said, there hasn't been a pitcher like Canady in a long time. Maybe all the way back to Cat. And the pitching is what will be the decider for Texas. Will we get the 1st inning jitters from Citlaly/Keegan, or will we get the 2-7 innings we got from Keegan yesterday? That 2-7 innings yesterday may be the best pitching performance from Texas all season. Aggie will play relaxed since they have nothing to lose being the lower seed. Texas has to do the same. Texas can't give up a couple of runs on walks in the first inning and expect to come back. And we know aggie would rather beat Texas more than win the natty. Quite honestly, I'd rather be facing any 10-15 seed than aggie.
  2. How stupid. We control the voting process, the ballots and the software. On top of that, the biggest political donors are all Democrats, and that's not even close. Maga Moron doesn't have a chance in hell.
  3. Seems really interesting they pulled Miller after she gave up 1 run in the first when she's by far their best pitcher. I'd rather not face Miller, but at least Texas got to see her. NW has nothing but film on Keegan or Citlaly, whoever goes today.
  4. More info on why Biden is doing a better job than Maga, and a video that also touches on solar panels and semi's. Biden's Chinese EV tariffs don't address lingering national security concerns (msn.com)
  5. Well, they've murdered a whole lot of white, Hispanic and Asian people too so to me it's appropriate for all people.
  6. I don't know why this isn't in the Fuck the Police thread either. I have no doubt Scottie was doing what he thought he was supposed to be doing. I had a similar incident happen to me when I THOUGHT I was doing exactly what I was supposed to do. And ironically, that cop had on blue jeans and a T-Shirt, and it happened in IN not to far from the KY border. And people wonder why there's a Fuck the Police thread.
  7. I don't know what your budget is, but Individualized is what Nordstrom uses, as well as most of the upscale stores in Austin/Dallas/Houston/SA. Individualized Shirts
  8. We actually studied that fact in one of my economics classes. If has issues with the facts taught by UT professors then they probably need to go see someone.
  9. Well, it probably isn't Strychnine, but it probably isn't much better.
  10. One could make an argument that China shouldn't be allowed to sell products in the US at all not just because of what they're doing to US companies, but what they're doing to the earth. Saving the planet is expensive but it must be done. China is destroying the planet one day at a time. US companies spend billions to comply with EPA, USDA, FDA regulations while Chinese companies dump toxic wastes in the nearest sewer. And that's just in addition to their effort to put US companies that manufacture defense products out of business. And they can do it by paying workers barely enough to buy road kill for dinner. It's silly to think there should be no tariffs on Chinese products. Higher product costs are better than 50% unemployment and no ability to defend yourself.
  11. Love it. You can't duplicate 97 deg and 98% humidity in Ft. Collins. They'll be falling over by the 3rd qtr.
  12. Wright scares me too, and Curd is pretty damn good too. Although I'm not sure Duke has the offense to hang with Texas. Canady scares me the most though, she's simply head and shoulders above everyone else. Almost as good as Cat. A couple of walks and errors against Stanford and it's all over.
  13. So how does this happen? I don't get going skiing when there's a chance of an avalanche. 2 Skiers Killed in Utah Avalanche, 1 Rescued After Digging Himself Out (people.com)
  14. This is a horrible story. Seems like he was a good guy as many here knew him. But if the shooter went to his car he could have just as easily driven off as using a gun. I don't know how he could have felt threatened much less responding to non-lifethreatening force with a gun. That doesn't seem reasonable to me. Of course I haven't seen a video, but the accounts don't say anything about Limmer chasing him to his car.
  15. It seems to me like Vic still needs to land another inside difference maker to be competing for a FF next year. Neg me if you want, but I don't see it in Oldacre. She didn't get starting min at Miami and her stats don't indicate anything more than a replacement for Hadi, and not an equal of Gaston. Not much left to go after though. And, of course, nobody knows how long it will be before Rori is back in form. I remember it took Lashann 2 years.
  16. Looks like it should be a fairly easy sweep, but that's what we thought about Cooger High. I never take anything for granted in Lubbock. Well, other than shitty weather and sleezy women.
  17. If CDC has made his decision he sure as hell better have his replacement lined up. It's always a crap shoot when there are no Augie Garrido's out there. We "Texas" think we can always get anyone we want, but some coaches simply don't want to leave where they're at for any amount of $.
  18. Fake Dump trying to kiss ass. Everyone knows he's really thinking, damn, get me outta this place. Of course that's the only place he can afford to eat.
  19. That's about the worst pitcher management I've ever seen. Why can't Texas play the kitties in FB so we can pound their ass into the ground and maybe end a couple of seasons?
  20. Depends on the opponent. If they suck no doubt Texas will give up 10 walks and shit the bed. If they're good Texas just might win it.
  21. I may get the fu for saying this, but I'm gonna be honest about it. I hope to see her in the portal. She has double to triple the turnover rate per minute played as S & S and Gisella and worse than Maddie. Maddie has a whole lot of reasons that are legitimate reasons for a high turnover ratio. Jak is a sophomore, she does not. When Jak came in is when Gonzaga made a run, and that seems to be the case every game. A rash of turnovers and stupid fouls is how you let a team back in the game and end up losing. I just think Texas will have better options either with Freshmen or portal players.
  22. The rich will always win and the repubs are dumb and broke.
  23. I didn't like Portland to begin with and I certainly don't like it now. The distance from Spokane to Portland is about the same as Dallas to SA, and students at a small private school I'm sure will travel better than UT students. And I'm sure there's a lot of Gonzaga alum that end up in Seattle down to Portland. I just hope there's a significant number of UT alumni in that area also.
  24. You have 26k posts and you don't know some people here question everything? Good post on WOTW. It completely slipped my mind and it's a great work. Especially with Justin Hayward. And speaking of which, The Moody Blues probably have a number of albums that would qualify. I'd put Days of Future Passed and To Our Children's Children above ISOTLC. ISOTLC has the bigger hit, but personally, I like TOCC better overall. And interesting, REO was my first concert ever.
