He was a really good one the 3 or 4 months he didn’t before he said fuck that shit. Way better hitting coach than assistant GM.

All Encompassing Mortgage and Real Estate Thread
I doubt it. There was absolutely no need for QT the last 6 months (maybe more) and liquidity is beginning to become an issue. I doubt we will see (much-any?) serious run at QE but some of the stuff they are doing allowing banks to buy and hold treasuries as zero risk assets are smart and will likely be helpful for borrowing costs all around. The Us government calling US treasuries a zero risk asset seems fair. It’s backed by the full faith and credit of the US government so having that as policy isn’t weird.

I don't know about anyone else but the buy/sell market right now seems to be absolutely stone cold dead right now. It's always slow around this time of year, sure, but seems way slower than normal to me at least. I also haven't had much in the way of bites on my rental house- it's clearly priced according to what other houses similar are getting but that's not a thing. We went 2 weeks at what market appeared to be and then dropped $100 about 3 days ago and had 1 inquiry is all. This is entry level blue collar price point- below median and on par with mobile home rental. Interesting. Professionally I'm absolutely killing it- I'm going to hit my goal numbers which were stretch- should do like almost 150 units and 75M or so. But the last 60 of those are going to be almost all refi related (I mean- I set it all up to make that happen when the market came down with 1/0 buy downs and all closing costs paid on the back end) - if I was relying only on sales these last 3 or 4 months of the year would be almost as grim as the worst parts of 2023.

I will be 87 when we win our last title. Probably worth sticking around for.

Does Ohio state not have resources? Florida? OU? Also- didn’t lose 3, but the other guy is on scholarship too. This year hasn’t been great but the trajectory of the program has been awesome- so it’s silly not to give it another year to play out and see if this is a blip or not.

I don’t know if this is any more real than the video my wife watched of grandma feeding beef jerky to a bear

Week 9 - Vandy at Texas.
We ain’t losing to no Vandy. Just like I said we ain’t losing to no MSST. Science.

Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
You are literally a mouth breathing retard with no ability to see any gradiation of black and white. That’s not at all what I said. I said if that’s your worst loss it’s not all that bad and it will be better than everyone else’s worst loss of the season that you are competing with in shit conferences that go 9-3 or 10-2 you simple minded fuckboi

Michael Taaffe wants you to stop being such fucking pussies.
I was at the game with an all 22 angle. No he wasn’t. In the context of everything that went wrong he was fine. He made some big plays. No running game. Battered around. Had a couple drops. If he played against Kentucky like he did against Florida we’d have won 24-10 or something. Absolute dogshit is Ohio state, UTEP and Kentucky. Florida was nothing of the kind.

Game Week 8: Texas at MSST
That's the optmist case for Sark isn't a complete moron and hasn't forgotten how to coordinate offense. I'm not saying I believe it, but we have what 2 guys back that played much last year- 1 of whom (trey) hasn't played much this year. But yeah, I sure wouldn't want to rest on this hope.

I make fucking awesome pancakes. Or at least I did before I got my fat surgery and now can't eat them and the kids don't really like pancakes. But your dad should have slapped your mom for being a lazy bitch. Making pancakes from scratch isn't that hard. From a box its simpleton shit. Buying them frozen is just totally giving up at life.

Arch was still on probation with me but working his way out of that after 10 or 11 fine to really good quarters against Sam, Florida and OU. after that debacle I’m in the “I won’t believe it until I see it” every week from him until the end of the season. It is really bad.

Game Week 8: Texas at MSST
I thought he played really well last year. I was utterly stunned when he was so bad against OSU and figured it was some bizarre one off. After SJSU you ripped me for the negative tone of my post, but I lost all confidence in him until he proves me wrong. Then UTEP happened and I was like- this fucker has the yips. What the actual fuck. I can’t believe there isn’t still a badass QB in there. But he’s got his head up his ass AND Sark is doing him no favors. Really fucking weird man.

Game Week 8: Texas at MSST
Arch might be worse than you. You know who beat OU and aggy and could absolutely hit wide open crossers over the middle? Case McCoy. I said Arch wasn't Case McCoy at the beginning of the year. I ddin't think I'd be correct in saying that because it was aspirational.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
I mean, yeah, everything you said about us is exactly right, but I still don't understand choosing "fail" if pass is even theoretically on the table, b/c the fail is a better version of fail than an ugly version of fail. I consider getting a 65 as a final grade to be every bit as pointless and awful as getting a 45. YMMV I guess. I agree with you on Sark- that he is a guy that's willing to make change. I don't think you go through AA and do that kid of work on a personal standpoint and not have the ability to change some stuff about yourself or be introspective

I remember when JR Towles had eleventy thousand rbi in one game as a rookie. He didn't end up in Cooperstown like we all had him penciled in for.

Nah. It would be Bama and whoever we lost to of aggy or Georgia.

Game Week 8: Texas at MSST
You could even throw OU in there at also 6-2 and we'd still go. Again, I don't think this is happening but if it did it would be a virtual certainty.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Sort of wild that OU is our top team and it's all the way at 5. I think they suck and I said that before we beat them and I say that now again. We shall see. 8 of top 15 but 1 of top 5 is sort of wild. Michael Scott thank you GIF.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
We might. We probably won't. Again, I'm not saying we will. What I'm saying is if we did we would have as good an argument (better than absolutely most) as anyone in the country for the 11 seed.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
Cool. Computer has them as like 24th in the country. They've played the hardest schedule in college football and they will finish 6-6. That's a better "bad" loss than any other team would have as their worst or most inexcusable loss. And absolutely nobody would have wins of the qualty of OU, aggy and Vandy. It's a dumb argument to say Texas at 9-3 would have no shot. That's obviously a huge IF the way this team played 2 of the last 3 weeks.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
I mean- look at the resumes if we are both 9-3. Texas losses: @ OSU, @ Florida, @ Georgia. Not a bad loss on there. Wins: Ranked (all top 10 at the time): Aggy, OU, Vandy. Compared to USC: Losses- @ ILlinois, @ Notre Dame, @ Oregon Wins: Michigan, @ Nebraska, Iowa I mean- Texas is way better on all 3 on the comparissons. Better losses. Better wins. Higher ranked in the computers by a lot. I guess if you think the big 10 can get a 4th team in ahead of a 9-3 texas what you'd need to see is them finishing 10-2. The following teams could finish with 2 losses with parenthesis being hard games left: Northwestern (Nebraka, USC, Michigan, Illinois, MN) USC (Oregon, Nebraska, Iowa) Iowa: (MN, Oregon, @ UsC, @ Nebraska) Michigan (Ohio State.). MN: (Iowa, @ Oregon, Northwestern) Illinois: (at Washington, v Northwestern) We should probably root for Illinois to lose- even though I think we'd get in over them at 10-2- maybe not? Their best win would be by 2 against USC and they lost by 53 to indiania and our common opponent in Ohio state they lost by 18 points and got them at home) NEB: (northwestern, USC, at UCLA, PSU, Iowa). This ain't happening. They might finish 1-4 Washington (Illinois, @ UCLA, Oregon) Basically, root for Washington against Illinois but they are the only one with a legit likelihood to get to 10-2. Even still- that is pretty awful as far as schedule and just took 2 absolute buttfuckings by the only two teams with a pulse they played.
