  3. Goddamnit. The University President woke up to a mugshot of his head basketball coach on the front page of ESPN. Doesn't matter after that. He said, she said, who gives a shit? That won't fly at the University of Texas, period. The individual circumstances of that individual night are immaterial. It would have happened eventually anyway given their temperaments. Beard should have dumped her when he had the chance. He didn't, so here we are.
  4. Should have known to pick against the Aggies. Goddamn spreadsheet.
  5. Someone in the know have any idea to what degree Sark was influenced by money/powers that be on this hire? Seems atypical for him based on previous hires.
  6. One year rental and then we hire the real coach?
  7. I almost bought it yesterday. Not too worried about the differences from past versions or anything like that. What halted me was the bullshit business practice of not including everything in the base game. If you want all the leaders and their UU and UA, you have to shell out almost twice as much for the “special” version that includes everyone. That right there is why they’re not getting anything out of me until it’s complete and goes on sale. I would be ok with a slightly buggy game on release that needed patches, as long as I got the entire game on purchase. This locking content behind additional paywalls is bullshit.
  8. That is clearly Blake Griffin in a wig.
  9. Conspiracy Theory: Tucker is the most accurate FG kicker in history. After this last season, his percentage plunged and now shitass Harrison Butker is within half a percentage point of him. Knowing he was on the downward slide, and with his status as the GOAT in jeopardy, Tucker had his people leak the rumors to the newspaper and point them in the right direction. Now he'll be forced to retire with his FG percentage intact, with no danger of further slippage. Fin
  10. Much like when Bert Auburn lined up to kick during this past season, I will hope for the best and expect the worst.
  11. Congrats NorthLoop, well played.
  12. Watching ND physically work OSU makes me sad and angry about what could have been.
  13. Y'all take it easy on this guy. One cannot control being the product of inbreeding.
  14. I’ve about had it with this public domain “rock” music they’re playing into commercial breaks. With the millions they’re making, can’t they at least shell out for the real Panama?
  15. It was at number 3 that I became concerned about scrolling down.
  16. OSU 34 UT 31 UT Total Yards 398
  17. Thank you! My old man and myself were trying to figure out who the hell's signature that was at a tailgate.
  18. I'm just tuning in to watch the dumbasses not understand that history is typically measured against contemporaries. Shit changes over time. Cumulative stats are inflated by longer careers/terms of service. Only someone with the brain of a child would judge the following simply by their counting stats instead of their impact on history: Rolls Royce Silver Ghost vs. Honda Civic: Ghost has a top speed of 60 mph and a 4 speed clutch. Honda Civic runs away with it. Jesse Owens vs. Derrick Florence (1986 Galveston Ball HS): Florence would smoke Owens 10.13 to 10.3. Red Grange 1925 vs. Keaontay Ingram 2019: Ingram's 853 yds exceed the Galloping Ghost by about 250 yds. So I guess some of us would say that the Honda Civic was a better car than the Silver Ghost, Derrick Florence is a better athlete than Jesse Owens, and that Red Grange was an inferior running back to Keaontay Ingram. The rest of us would say that times change, and of course Jesse Owens is a better historical athlete than some rando high school kid none of us has ever heard of. To wit: VY Street Colt Layne Ewers Ewers jumps Layne with a title. Shoutout to Carlisle and Phillips for winning titles.
